August 19, 20241 yr Hi- will the RXP GTN install and work correctly in the 172? Thought I would ask prior to buying. Thanks, Mark Edited August 19, 20241 yr by newtie add
August 20, 20241 yr You can hook it up to anything with pop-up window and most aircraft's AP can follow the NAV route you set in, but you'll need some quite extended .acf and .obj modify to add it in the 3D cockpit.
August 20, 20241 yr How recent will your database be? That's the main reason I gave up on going RXP 😕 Edited August 20, 20241 yr by jcomm Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

TDS have figured out how to make their Garmin-dependent product have the latest Navigraph AIRACs in MSFS, so that's where RXP is definitely going to struggle.

Yep... tricks ( illegal ) can be used... but ... A pitty.. I used their GNS back in the good-old times of FSX, and it was really great ! Then I used ELITE IFT, but it has the very same problem and the AIRAC updates cost in excess of $300 !!!

I don't think what TDS did is illegal, otherwise I think we wouldn't have it available anymore. There must have been a way for them to offer the Premium version where the most recent Navigraph database is available for the GTN avionics.

Ah, no, I was not commenting on the TDS but rather on how some users kept their RXP Airacs more or less up-2-date... TDS is a success ! Even the default GNS in MSFS just by itself, that even if not perfect and fully featured does the job very well for a more simplistic use of the equipment.

August 23, 20241 yr I now mainly use GTN for Helo with HRM, so set a waypoint with lat/lon and the just 2 click to set a proper SAR pattern totally worth it.
