Hi All,
I am using RXP GTN750 with XTrident's Bell 412. When I load a hold at an entry waypoint for a GPS approach the GTN acts exactly as per the real-world aircraft, displaying the hold and sector entry. Unlike the real aircraft though, once at the entry waypoint the XTrident 412 turns to intercepts track to the IAF rather than fly the sector entry and hold. The RXP product appears to be commanding correctly, but the XTrident 412 appears to be following steering commands from elsewhere.
I am somewhat computer illiterate, but can stooge through configuration files with clear guidance. I have managed to get the GTN working as it should for all other aspects (that I've experienced so far) but not to suspend and hold. From some searching it appears others have experienced this but I can't find a resolution. I got the impression from one post that while the RXP product was displaying correctly somehow the default Xplane model GPS was providing steering commands to the AP, and that suspending the GTN didn't suspend the base aircraft model GPS. Strange thing is I previously had this running on a Mac Windows partition (have now bought and installed on a dedicated PC) and I'm 99% certain I could fly holds previously.
I'm hoping this is a simple configuration change that someone has seen before and can help me with. My RXP GTN settings are currently as follows:
Master Device -Yes
Connect GPS to Autopilot -Yes
Connect GPS to HSI (pilot) -Yes
Connect HSI/CRS (auto slew) -Yes
Connect HSI/OBS (course in) -Yes
Connect GPS to VOR -No
Connect CDI mode to NAV/GPS switch -Yes. Sync mode GPS to Sim
A quick check now shows it is following the default aircraft 530, which isn't suspending the IAP when entered in the GTN, so seems to be a communication issue between the two. Any help appreciated!
