  1. I purchased the Reality XP GNS 530W/430WV2 for X-plane 11 to go in to the Thranda C208 Caravan. After installing it I followed instruction and went to the plug-ins to install. It installed as an add-on gauge. I thought it would replace the gauge. I don’t get the modern panel assistant like in a similar way as the GTN 750 does in P3D. It did not see where a Trainer downloaded or installed. I am looking for some help to get this installed. Thank for any help anyone can give
  2. I an having exactly the same problem. During install it froze and I think that is the problem.

  3. Roberto, Thanks I have that one for sure. Works great. Dick
  4. Got panel lights working. Had to reinstall A/C again. works good now. Thanks Dick
  5. I'll turn on Content error logging and see if I can find out anything there. I can reinstall to see if that does anything also
  6. Hello all. I am trying to see if anyone is having trouble with panel lights in P3D v5.3. When I hit the switch nothing happens. I can turn the dials for for the panel and lighting increases but almost impossible to see switches at night. I used the number for lights with C130 lights from the effects folder to make the exterior lights bright (taxi, landing, beacon and nav lights). Just can't figure out how to get panel spot lights to work. I contacted Carenado but There was no help.. I had the GTN750 MOD installed and there said that might have something to do with it. I reinstalled a clean copy but with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank Dick
  7. I have RXP GTN 750 install in my P3D v5.3. I have researched the manuals to find out how the checklist function works. When I hit the utility group a checklists box (function) in the loaded gauge it does not appear. When I startup the trainer look in the utility group the checklist box (function) appears. All other functions seem to work OK. I am not sure what my next step is. I have thought of uninstalling both the trainer and the gauge but didn’t want to go through that if there was another fix. The software is up to date with version 2.5.30.0 installed. Any help would be appreciated. Dick

  9. I used the bundle coupon to purchase the RXP 750/650. After installing the trainer only the GTN750 shows up. I can click on the 750 and it give options to change to 650. When I select the 650 it will work in the trainer. When I go to P3D v5.3 and try to load in a default aircraft and select 750 for unit #1 and 650 for unit#2 both units will appear in the stack but but only the 750 will turn on and function. Everything appears to work OK except when I go to the utility button to bring up the checklist function does not appear. I thought I would see if there were any suggestions before I delete and re download/install. Thank Dick
  10. MaSi, Do these entries illuminate the runway outside the cockpit? I contacted Carenado to see what they had to say. Sent a YouTube per their instructions showing problems. Answer I got back was it appears you made modification so do clear install and that should take care of it. It did not. I sent this to Carenado to see if there was any more suggestions: " I picked aircraft I had done a clear load, but not really flown to see if there was a problem with the lights. I reinstalled the EMB 120 and the SD330. The only adds I did was setup the GTN750 with your install and add the 750 into the instrument panel. FYI I have installed in P3D the Twin Otter from Aerosoft Twin Otter. I tried the landing lights and Taxi lights on this aircraft and they actually work better than default aircraft. I checked the Effects directory and It appears and Careando lighting effects are in there but there is no illumination of runway from cockpit view. Any help would be appreciated. I do fly Careando aircraft regular and I am sure as you can see I have purchased a number or your aircraft because I like them. The new YouTube is: https://youtu.be/Gflvwq6G0Og Thanks again Dick " Looking for some answer back that might help. If not I will have to rebuild light section in Config for aircraft like you did.

  11. I just updated my P3D V5.3 to HF 2. At night on my Craenado add-on A/C landing or taxi lights do not illuminate the R/W. When looking head on the lights are lit but when looking from the cockpit there is no illumination of the R/W. Dynamic lighting in Options is on. Is there any fix to this. I have looked through forums but have not found any answers. I had A2A lighting effects in FSX but I don't think that works in P3D. I have no third party lighting effects loaded into P3D at all. I have pretty much cutout night flying because of lighting issue. Thanks for the help. Dick
  12. RXP, I had to go back to old publications to dig out Freqs that would would, older AIR cycles. When I put them in they picked up ILS and VOR just fine. I did use Flight Simulator Aircraft Dynamics and Navdata site to update my FSX but nothing in his site for P3D v5. I then found their update for V5+. I loaded that in and everything is working great now. I think he is based on AIR Cycle 2205. I am still new to RXP gauge, still learning the differences from F1 gauge. Forums are great help though. Thanks Dick
  13. Thank fppilot, yes most of the Freq's work. There are just a few that don't. I suppose it could be the panel config. I have gone through it and the instructions two or three time making some adjustments but nothing seems to work. I tried to google to see what panels configs are use but with no luck. I even ran the last update and that didn't make a difference. I did use Flight Simulator Aircraft Dynamics and Navdata site to update my FSX but nothing in his site for P3D v5. I re-downloaded and re-installed. I will see if that does anything. Thanks again.

  14. I did a flight today and noticed my GTN 750 in P3Dv5.3 is not picking up VOR freq or ILS freq. Today it was LWT 115.45 and the other day I was doing ILS at Spokane Washington KGEG runway 03. Billings MT ILS runway 10 does not work either. At Lewiston, MT you can be right over VOR and will not register. Is there a way to update Freq? Thanks for help. Dick
