Garmin 750 and HSI

Garmin 750 and HSI

When a flight plan is inputted into the Garmin 750 and the Map display is opened, selecting the CDI option to GPS, the HSI needle will center, but the course pointer does not point to the correct course.

You can rotate the HSI Course Needle to any heading desired and while turning, the CDI center bar will stay aligned. On all other aircraft, once selecting GPS on the Map Display Page of the Garmin 750, the HSI Course Needle will center and the point needle turns to the correct flight plan course.

Thanks for reviewing,

Asticou

I've got the RXP GTN 750 and 650 in my A2A Bonanza, and I have the 750 set up as shown on page 5 of the Reality GTN User's Manual. Also, I have both units set up with both arrows going between GPS and SIM as shown on page 11 of the manual.

Hope that helps.

Hello Asticou,

Yes, in both the RealityXP and FLight1 GTNs, the HSI behaviour can be configured in the GPS settings app for each product. Extracts from their respective *.ini files are shown below.

RXP

Code: Select all

; connects GPS to HSI course motor if true.
LinkCrs = true
F1

Code: Select all

Auto CRS=1
Thanks,
Nick

Inserted the CRS=1 in the 750 section and happy to report HSI and Course needles respond to GPS command.
Thanks again

Of course, for Full Realism™, you'd be manually rotating the course indicator, as it would not be servo'ed in real installation. :)
