GTN states 'rebooting' and never turns on
I am having a similar issue. Frequently after I shut down (engines, battery, etc.) and restart the plane, the 650 stays dark and the 750 says "rebooting". I'm using the latest version of XP12 and the latest 750 software which I believe is 2.6. Any thoughts on that error? Scott

RXP GNS V2 and GTN database update
Thank you Jean-Luc, The link you provided says only Australia and New Zealand. I'm looking for nav data for the USA. Does RXP have any commercial customers using your GTN/GNS in their simulators? In those situations, I'm assuming they have a need for keeping the navigation databases fairly current. How are they doing the updates? Other users have pointed out that RXP uses the same databases as the "real" equipment. Based on your previous response, I'm a bit reluctant to purchase the latest Garmin database for the 430. Has anyone else tried that? Thank you

RXP GNS V2 and GTN database update
Thank you for the information. Looks like Garmin sells the GNS 430w database for $149 on their site: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/shop-by-accessories/maps/avdb/gns-430w-530w-americas-north-garmin-navigation-database/prod571354_J500WA-AMRN.html?cdncache=false&serial=7&authToken=07eff56b-67ae-455a-91da-f5ce00e4e4ed&bust=1514468306&returnURL=https://fly.garmin.com/fly-garmin/continue-shopping?deviceID%3D407674%26avdbID%3D2302 The Part Number: J500WA-AMRN Could RXP please verify this will work with the Reality-XP GNS 430w V2? Is there anything else I'll need to purchase? Will it download the "worldwide.bin" file? I have no problem spending $150 for software so long as it will work with the RXP GNS products. This has the added benefit of complying with any potential Garmin copyright issues. Thank you.

RXP GNS V2 and GTN database update
Thank you Jean-Luc Looks like my Reality-XP GNS is currently using "worldwide.bin" as the navigation database. I was able to find a Garmin trainer using a database from last year and I'd like to use that with your GNS/GTN equipment. That is far more recent than the one that came with it. The Garmin download included: bmap.bin card nav_db2.bin nav_db2_grm.bin safetaxi.bin Can I get rid of worldwide.bin? Should I change one of the nav to avtn_WW_db.bin? Any assistance would be appreciated.

RXP GNS V2 and GTN database update
Hello Everyone I'm currently using the Reality-XP GTN and GNS products in my sim. With the recent "pop-out" feature enabled, they have been wonderful to use. Looking through this topic, there seems to be an ongoing challenge with the database updates. The data seems to be out there but the "mods" of this site seem to be removing posts and/or disabling links to prohibit people from downloading material that potentially violates Garmin's copyright. If the data is publicly available on Garmin's site and users are not selling it, I do not see the issue but I understand their concern. In any case, does anyone sell databases that will work with the RXP GTN/GNS equipment? I think most users would be willing to pay something for the data and would certainly benefit for databases that aren't a decade or so old. It looks like Garmin will not sell them without a valid serial number from a "real" unit. Perhaps this is a revenue stream for RXP. If a database can not be purchased, could someone please provide a link or at least what I can Google to download the Garmin trainer? I just downloaded one from Garmin's site where the database was from 2007. Any assistance would be appreciated for this ongoing issue. Scotto
