Please can you let us know if you've managed to get the Flight1 GTN working successfully in any other aircraft? We just need to verify if the third-party add-on package in question is working successfully in whichever host sim you're using.

Thanks,
Nick
Thanks Nick, I will get back to you on this

Thanks for clarifying that Richard.

In that case, please can you try using the Shift 3 panel to revert to the "no GPS" option, check both nav/comm radios are switched on, and then use Shift 3 to switch back to the GTN.

Regards,
Nick

Hi Nick
The GTN 750 panel appears but still does not work despite using your actions above.
The GTN 650 works without a problem.

Thanks Richard,

Please can you try deleting the 'client.wyc' file for the Cherokee:
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\A2A\Cherokee180\Update_fsx\client.wyc
After doing this, if you re-run the latest Accu-Sim update it should ensure the integrity of any updated files. Finally, please reselect the F1 GTN 750 using the Cherokee Aircraft Configurator.

Cheers,
Nick

I am having the same issue: both GTN 650 and 750 dark.
I have FSX:SE with Flight1 Garmin package - works well in another aircraft (Justflight Warrior).
I tried switching to no GPS, switched com/Nav off and on.
Deleted .wyc file and re-ran accusim update.
Checked configuration program has both set on.
Still no joy!

Any tips please?

I managed to get the GNS430/530 working as separate pop-up panels after re-running the Flight 1 config program, so all good for now, although weird to see the dark GTN650/750 in the embedded dash at the same time.
