RXP: All links are enabled but no CDI deflection if off track on the HSI. In Map mod on 750 the CDI works and shows relationship to DTK correctly. I was also careful to activate the first leg of the flight plan. There has to be something simple that I am missing. I am very familiar with such equipment in real life. The CDI as part of the aircraft's HSI is not indicating at all in GPS mode. switch to VLOC and all is normal. I haven't found any reference in training materials but I am looking. Great piece of equipment by the way.

Hi Mario, I looked around for such a button, May I ask where it is? In the aircraft or on the GTN itself? Your response sounds encouraging though. I will take another look in the meantime. Thanks, Steve

Just installed the GTN 750 and I am wondering if the the CDI is implemented to show course deflection? I loaded a flight plan and coupled the auto pilot which the airplane followed correctly. I did notice that the CDI never moved to show any course deviation. I was flying in Nav mode so I went to heading mode and purposely flew away from the track. The CDI needle never moved. I tried various settings in "settings" with no changes. I then tried a DTO and although the airplane flew the correct course to the new waypoint the CDI remained motionless. What am I missing? Thanks.

Well I downloaded Xassign and winzip is trying to unzip to a location other than what I think it should. I guess I need help on extracting the download to a location from where I can move it to the proper destination. Any advice on how to unzip files so that i can move them would be great. Sorry to be so dumb but I don't have a lot of knowledge with such things. Regards

Dear tonywob Jimmy RFR. Thanks for the info. Xassign sounds like the ticket. I am very unlearned when it comes to working with files but I will give it a go. Thanks again. Steve

HI All, I am staggering around trying to get going in X-Plane 10. My first dilemma lies in setting up the joystick etc. It does not appear possible to have dedicated key and button assignments on a per plane basis. Is it possible to have a key file (set up) for individual aircraft? Please forgive me if I have posted this incorrectly. I throw myself on the mercy of those who have more time to enjoy (emphasis on enjoy) this great hobby more than I do. Many thanks in advance. Steve
