September 22, 2025Sep 22 Hi, I use the GTN 650 on X-Plane 12 with the RealSeamGear GTN 650. I just installed the lastest GTN trainier, and the lastest Reality XP software. When loading the procedures for LOWI, it does not show the LOC 26 R procedure, and it says the RNAV 26 E GPS is unavailable. However, if I run the GTN trainer standalone (Garmin software), the LOC 26 R shows up, and the RNAV 26 E GPS can be used. Why are these approaches suddenly gone, when using the GTN 650 device with the Reality XP software? I checked the AIRAC cycles, and they are identical. Any way I can get these procedures to work?
September 22, 2025Sep 22 The latest Garmin trainer version is much more recent than the latest trainer installed with the RXP gauges, which incorporate an outdated database that's approaching 2 years old. Unfortunately, the RXP Garmins are abandonware now. A much better alternative now exists for XPlane--the TDS GTN 750Xi/650Xi, which has a Navigraph updateable database, functional crossfill, and is actively supported.
