GPS System

Post by itsrobbiew »

Ive been having a few issues with the GPS in my sim. Whether it be A2A aircraft, PMDG and even default aircraft. Ive asked on LM forums with no luck. Avsim with no luck. Hoping its fixed here.

So normally when you click FPL on the 430 it brings me to a page where I can enter waypoints for an IFR flightplan. However when I click FPL i dont have that. Just active flight plan with no waypoints and no way to enter waypoints. The DCT button works on the GPS allowing me to go DCT to an airport but I cant actually make a flight with waypoints. Image This screenshot is when I click FPL.

You can only load saved flight plans using the stock GPS.

Hi Robbie and welcome to the A2A forums.

Yes, the functionality of the default GPS gauges in P3D is a bit limited which is why third-party GPS add-ons based on Garmin's own trainer software are pretty popular. Add-on versions of the 530/430 can be purchased from both RealityXP and Flight1 Software and both are supported in the Bonanza.

Thanks,
Nick
