I am having 2 G5s and GArmin Auto Pilot installed. I have the Garmin CDI Installed which I can select GPS or NAV. It looked like you also had GPS on your CDI. They are telling me I can't have GPS on my CDI as a selection. Prioriy it can only go to Garmin HSI. However it looked like youe CDI was locked on to GPS from your 430. Please confirm Thanks great video

just curious why does the autopilot need the “old” ADI? Is there a limitation/capability issue with the G5 for some APs? If upgrading to a G5 stack, I would want to eliminate the need of a vacuum system.

Question: Have you ever experienced the Alt Hold light to come on without pilot button push?

Does the G5 HSI connect to the nav radio for ils, vor, and loc approaches? As in not the GPS. My flying club has a 172 that has a Garmin 175 navigator. It doesn't have an obs option to switch the cdi from GPS to vloc because the navigator only gives GPS information. It doesn't have integrated comms or nav. We're in the market to get a second G5 as the HSI but I'm worried that we'll only be able to read GPS data on it and won't be able to connect it to the nav frequencies on our radio stack.

Good job on the video. I do have a question: Once you load the approach, you turn 210 to intercept. You also hit APR mode. Do you have to press the button each time or will the AP capture the decent profile if left alone?

Thinking of adding the YD servo to my 201 with GFC 500. Does it make a big difference in turbulence? Faster than you can react ? Thanks and your video is awesome. Kevin
@bdpd13 жыл бұрын
Yes it cuts down on the oscillations and tail wag after encountering turbulence significantly. In the Mooney it also allows for feet off rudders climbs and descents

The aural alerts you receive for altitude...did that come alive as a result of the GFC500? I have the dual G5s with GNX375 and no altitude alerting. Considering adding the GFC500 as it appears to do an amazing job in that crosswind! Thx for the video.

Altitude alerting comes from the GFC 500 mode control panel.

Is the event you lost one of the displays could you display both navigation and attitude info on the same screen?
@seikibrian86415 жыл бұрын
As far as I know you can't, for example, superimpose the PFD over an HSI screen, but in PFD mode there is a compass tape along the top of the screen, and you can have a CDI near the bottom (just above the slip/skid indicator ball), so you do have basic navigation information.

Thanks so much for filming that, Brad! If anyone's wondering why I stay relatively flat after takeoff, it's something I do any time I have a lot of runway available (no obstructions). It allows me to accelerate to 120kts before climbing, which is optimal for cooling.
