Re: Garmin G5 with Reality XP GNS 430W

That part hasn't been touched since the beginning. You're also the only one with this. Maybe a setting in the RealityXP menu? I’m pretty sure I haven’t changed anything my end. I can’t thing of any RXP setting which would do this. If I look at the variables in the viewer that I presume you are usin...

Re: Garmin G5 with Reality XP GNS 430W

Hmmm…could it have been a while back or something which crossed over? I haven’t used the sim for a few months. GPS bearing pointer is definitely behaving differently (and not like it should). It’s missing the heading component and is behaving like a pure RBI.

Re: Garmin G5 with Reality XP GNS 430W

OK thanks Ralph. I'm on XP11 (and fibre :D ). I was hoping to do a bit of single needle hold practice before IR revalidation next Tuesday...

Re: Garmin G5 with Reality XP GNS 430W

Hi, has something changed in the G5 code?

The GPS bearing pointer has gone off again. It appears to be pointing just to the relative bearing, rather than the actual bearing. So if I'm pointed straight at the waypoint, it reads N regardless of my heading.

Cheers!

Re: Garmin G5 with Reality XP GNS 430W

Hi Ralph, it's almost there, correct variables, but the sign is the wrong way around (my mistake). So you need to change current code: setting_compass.bearing_pointer.bearing_gps1 = ((heading_mag - gps_relative_bearing_deg) + 360) % 360 to: setting_compass.bearing_pointer.bearing_gps1 = ((heading_ma...

Re: Garmin G5 with Reality XP GNS 430W

Hi Ralph, sorry it's taken me a while to get back to this, Sim room too cold to hang around in! I've checked the behaviour on a default X-Plane aircraft in X-Plane 12 with no RealityXP installed. I used Skyhawk with G1000. It's the same behaviour as I described before, so not related to RealityXP. F...

Re: Garmin G5 with Reality XP GNS 430W

I have the latest version of Air Manager. I have not changed any settings in a RealityXP, but I don’t know what setting would affect this anyway. Everything is working approximately correctly, but the gps bearing pointer is incorrect by the amount of the wind drift. No wind = no error. I described i...
