Will the new Reality XP 650 work in the Connie?

Post by Warbirds »

Reality XP has a new GTN 650 (similar to the Flight1 GTN 650) and wondered if it would work in the Connie in place of the F1 version.

It should be a simple config change, I hope. Anyone?

I cant remember the exact location, I've just done a bunch of forum catching up and can't find the correct thread now but this one in a similar fashion should help you;

disclaimer, its not officially supported but I believe it is achievable.

thanks,

Hello Paul,

I don't own the RealityXP GTN (just their GNS 530 V2) but, yeah, the principal for integrating it into the VC should be the same as in the post Lewis linked: namely selecting the F1 GTN unit via the aircraft configurator, then editing the panel.cfg to reflect the different gauge name for the RXP gauge.

Not sure if the gauge dimension will need to be edited too but hopefully not!

Nick
