Hi Ryan, is the new G3X integration functional on this airplane?

Yep as Moe said... lpv integration between the tds and g3x, shared flight plan variables between the two and drawing of the magenta line on the g3x from the tds 650xi 🙂

Here's a pic for proof haha

Ryan, is there written guidance to be found on how to accomplish all the PFM?

TIA,

I am starting with the GNS/G3X option which works nicely out of the box, no PFM required 🙂

Thanks Bert. I’ll keep that in mind.  It’s good to have options 😎

You need navigraph data, either TDS Pro or PMS GTN and the RV8.

All the GTNs will talk to the G3X and then it's PFM.

Here is the GNS430/G3X combo

Hello Ryan,

I have a TDSnxi Pro FlightPlan loaded in the 650xi, but it doesn't show in the G3X, any ideas.

Thanks

I would ask in their dedicated discord - someone else may have experienced this but I'm not sure of what is causing it... possibly an outdated G3X mod or avionics mod.  Once at the TDS discord I'd navigate to the new G3X subcategory and make a post there:

Same/same for me.  TDSPro, Navigraph, RV-8 and no FP in G3X. Is there some sort of action required?

I just posted this on TDS Discord:  “Howdy. My issue  is with the map display not painting the  Magenta Line. The FP waypoints are appearing on the G3X.  I load a FP into the GTN and the waypoints appear  on the top line of the G3X (WPT BRG DIST ETE GS TRK) and the NAV will follow the FP but the Magenta Line does not appear on the map.  That’s my issue in a nutshell”

Oh, that looks very nice indeed!  That has to be in my hanger 😁

A lot of paints starting to show up now - maybe I need to fly it more than paint!
