Anyone know how place a wind direction arrow and wind strength on the map page of the GTN 750 in the Carenado Phenom 300? I have seen it in some of the pictures posted on this forum but I cannot find any info as to how to enable it. Thanks for any help. Update: I found out how to enable ... if others need to know....select the Menu button at the bottom of the Map page and then select Change User Fields in the Map User Fields section.

Hello I have both the GTN 750 and the Navigraph Extension 1.2 installed in the Carenado 300.. I see from a different post that the Navigraph Extension is not needed or wanted. My questions would be: Should I remove the Navigraph Extension 1.2 or just leave it as is? Should I install the new Navigraph Extension 1.3? If yes to installing the new Extension, should the old one be removed first or install the new over the old one? Thanks for any support Jack

Hello...I could use a bit of help if you don't mind. Can I throw a little wrinkle into the mix? I have both FSX and FSX-SE installed. I notice that the two versions are found in the directories of the above file structures that you describe....not just FSX. ...FSX ...FSX-SE Suppose I want to remove the FSX-SE version at some time but keep FSX. I assume I follow your instructions from above but just remove the FSX-SE and leave the FSX. In the registry folders I assume that I go into the directory tree to Microsoft Games ...open it and remove just the FSX-SE Only area that I am not sure of is in the registry...in the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" , inside the Microsoft Games folder there is only one folder ....flight simulator. If I remove the Microsoft Games folder, it would remove the flight simulator folder contained inside. Where I still have FSX installed ... I'm not sure of this final step.. Any advise? Jack

Could use some feed back with an issue with entering a flight plan using the G1000. I have the GTN 750 installed and working fine but I thought that I would, just for the fun of it, try to load a flight plan using the original G1000. I have Navigraph extension 1.2 installed. windows 7. Following the instructions in the manual, plus experimenting with different methods, I am only able to select the "Select Approach" option in the Procedures page(window). All other PROC options are grayed out. No matter what I try I can not get the options to be selectable. I perhaps should mention that I was omitting any checklists.... just doing a cold/dark startup ...opening the G1000 and trying to enter a flight plan. I did not think that that would be an issue. Any suggestions? Jack

Well things seem to be working ok now. I have tried a few flights and switching between the the two systems and things work fine. Hopefully it was just a couple computer glitches that caused my original problems.

When I get a chance I will try it a few more times to see if it is or is not a problem or if it was just an unrelated problem with my computer that happened while switching between the two software systems. I will post my results. Thanks Bert Jack

Thanks Bert. I was a little uncertain because twice when trying to do so I have had computer problems develop... First time the display screen of the MFD went completely black and I was unable to use any of it's features. Tonight after a long flight using the GTN 750, after landing when I tried to use the Prodigy MFD to check some systems, but not use it for navigation, my windows menues stopped displaying correctly. They had the characters/letters shown as solid, irregular blocks, so you could not read them. For example if you right clicked on the screen to see the dropdown menue. Any ideas Jack

Hello I have the GTN 750 Mod installed ... with help from Bert. It works fine. Can one still use the G1000 MFD for going through the various checklists and for looking at the different systems displays and then open the GTN 750 for the navigation process and flight plan installation or does switching between the too ( GTN 750...G1000 ) cause problems? Thanks for any help Jack

Hello Nothing important but.... ( FSX) Just wondering if the Cabin Effects Light...Bright .... dim .... Off ... work in the Phenom 3000 because I have tried numerous times to look for any changes when selecting the different settings but I see none. Can one adjust the COG or do you only use the Fuel and Cargo Planner option in FSX? How does one determine what pitch setting to use for take off ...... for different take off situations? Is there a graphical display showing the different pitches for different COG? I remember seeing one somewhere but I have tried relocating it but I cannot find it? Maybe it was in a different plane than the Phenom 300 but I definitely remember seeing a horizonal diagram showing different pitch settings for different COG. Seems to me it appeared at the lower left of the FMC display. Do the V1, V2, VR get announced as they are reached during take off? Is there some option I must enable for this to happen? Thanks for any help Jack

Thanks guys.....good to know all is working as it should.

Hello I just purchased this aircraft. Does the Carenado 300 Phenom have reverse thrust capability when landing because I can't get it to engage? It works fine in the default learjet using my CH throttle quadrant. Looking at the exterior engine model I don't see any indication of panels that can be moved to deflect thrust. If one is new to this type of aircraft, such as I, where would one start searching to learn the steps needed to start up from cold/dark and to use the G1000? Searching YouTube ??? Thanks Jack

Thanks for the reply Joao. I have had no luck with my set up. I will take a look at your link.

Hello again ... posted up above, a while back. New problem that I hope someone can help with. My computer hard drive had to be replaced ... in the process the computer guy installed AMD CCC version 14.0417.2226.38446 and Driver Packaging Version 14.10.1006-140417a-171099C, Catalyst Version 14.4. My computer spec are above in a previous post. Couldn't figure out how to copy it. The new install of FSX has some issues which are annoying; such as , when exiting FSX, it gives a fatal fault error message and then reboots.... the CH yoke button mapped to VC view does not work after changing to some aircraft.... an instrument view window when opened in VC view works fine but if I leave that VC view and then come back to the VC view the instrument view is closed again, forcing me to re open it every time I return to the VC view. More small bugs like the above not worth mentioning because the problem is clear. Should FSX be working with this newer CCC version? If so, what could be the cause with this new install? Which version of CCC should I roll back to if that is a cure? Thanks J35

Thanks .... very clear and answers my concerns Jack
