While the Aera 660 can't load approach transitions, arrivals, and departures like you can with the Aera 760, the Aera 660 can load the FAF to runway portion of approaches, which is a huge help in visualizing and flying ILS approaches with a NAV only equipped aircraft like yours. Regarding the GFC500, Garmin isn't interested in the 177 and only the later 177a,b, and rg are included in their STC.Ĭonnecting the 660 to both G5s will be easy, I guess it'll have to be as soon as it's too cold for me to enjoy flying next month !
#Garmin g5 install
Thank you, I took a screenshot of your advice for the future in case I install the 760 or an IFR GPS navigator. When you leave the plane you just push the button on the Aera 760 mount to release it, and the mount and aircraft wiring remains in place. I have a ball mount attached to the Aera 760 mount, a second ball mount attached to the instrument panel, and an adjustable arm in between the two which gives you great control over placement and viewing angle of the Aera 760. Here is an example of an RNAV approach being used on an Aera 760, and an ILS would be similar.
#Garmin g5 upgrade
Should you ever upgrade one of your NAV/COM units to a GPS/COM like the GNC 355, you can even drive the Aera 760 directly using the MapMX output from the GPS navigator for RNAV approaches. If you ever upgrade to a GFC 500 autopilot, the Aera 760 can be one of the navigators that will directly drive the GFC 500. If you install an Aera 760, it can be your primary GPS navigator, and you can load/activate an ILS approach (for visual reference), complete with procedure turn and missed approach, and use it to drive your G5 units and provide lateral navigation to the final approach course where your NAV radio will take over to provide the ILS approach guidance. If I were you I would forget about using a tablet since it cannot interface to your G5 and would be just another place to have to enter the flight plan and approach. Since you have an external GPS antenna connected to your primary G5, you do not need the GTX 335 GPS data and will need to disconnect it. You will need to connect the NMEA output from the Aera 660/760 to both of your G5 units.
#Garmin g5 manual
Yes, the G5 STC Installation manual does provide installation and configuration information for a "Portable Avionics Interface Connector" to which you can connect many portable GPS units including the Aera 660/760. Both a GDL 39 and also a Stratux, to cover all my tablet apps for ADSB-IN GTX335 transponder with a GA35 GPS Antenna and GAE12 Encoder for ADSB-OUT. Dual G5s with a GPS Antenna (010-12444-00) mandatory for STC'd installations) and a GMU-11 magnetometer The other Garmin equipment I have installed are : IFR GPS navigator or GAD 29B are not installed for now. My only navigation GPS is the VFR Aera 660. when you contact support, etc.).Yes, I have dual Nav/Com radios for IFR navigation. X-Aviation maintains the customer relationship with the products, that data is not shared with the developers (AFM, RealSimGear) except on a need-to-know basis (ex. Was any customer data transferred during this process? I will still be developing the updates for the G5 for the foreseeable future, just under the RealSimGear brand. Making this transfer made sense strategically for both parties. You may know me, Cooper, as the developer behind AFM and TorqueSim.
#Garmin g5 software
Contact RealSimGear for support on the software itself, integrations, anything to do with the G5 hardware, and anything else. If you want a direct contact, there are two main points of ticketed support, X-Aviation support for issues related to the installer, purchases, etc. The RealSimGear G5 forum on X-Pilot is a great place to start. The RealSimGear G5 is still being sold through X-Aviation, as the AFM G5 was, so the product transfer was already seamlessly completed.
#Garmin g5 license
I’m an existing AFM G5 customer, what do I need to do and what does this mean for me?ĭon’t worry, everyone who purchased the AFM G5 has a license to the RealSimGear G5 – updates will continue under that brand at no additional cost. Existing customers of the AFM G5 do not need to make a new purchase. The G5 can be purchased from X-Aviation here.
