Will there ever be compatibility with the Garmin GI275?

[@raulcartagena294]

Andrew/Bendix, There seems to be much confusion in regards to the TruTrak being authorized to fly a coupled approach as per the limitations written on 2.4 of the AFMS. Some say you can do a GPS approach down to 700ft and some say you can't. Instead of hearing so much conflicting information I'd prefer to hear from the professionals themselves. 1- does that also mean that even with LPV capability the TruTrak is not authorized for any instrument approach including any type of GPS approaches? 2- If you cannot fly a GPS approach in GPSS mode then I am assuming that limitation would not apply if you use the autopilot in track mode (stand alone mode) is that correct? Thanks for your help and clarification!

Hi, is it certified for an ILS approach and a LNAV/VNAV approach down to 200 feet AGL?

[@Bendixking]

The AeroCruze 100 is not capable flying coupled analog approaches (VOR/Loc/ILS). The AeroCruze 100 is limited to 700ft AGL in all operations, including LNAV/VNAV. Find out more and schedule a demo or call here: www.bendixking.com/en/products/ai/autopilots-and-indicators/aerocruze-100

Can it only interface with a Garmin G5? Is the G500 not supported?

The G500 has not been tested with the AeroCruze 100. Find out more and schedule a demo or call here: www.bendixking.com/en/products/ai/autopilots-and-indicators/aerocruze-100

Are there plans for getting an interface for Garmin GI275 units?

I've been in Avionics over 25 years now. And I've had two certified repair station in this time. I hate when people say how mush something will cost to installed. What about the the cost of removing the old autopilot, the condition of the plane, the shops insurance cost, cost of hangar rent & the list goes on. When Aspen first came out with the EFD1000 they said 8 hours to install. No it wasn't. Dealers got pissed off because that's what customers expected. And from what I see it requires a WAAS GPS to get all the features. Now your over $20K if you have to install a GPS. Here in the Houston area some hangars rent for the lower end $10k month higher $30k + month each airport is different. So please say an average install should cost X.

Is it possible to get your alt pre-select from the alt bug on the aspen?

[@Bendixking]

The Aspen doesn’t currently send the ALT Bug in a format that we can utilize, but we are working with them on possibly adding this in the future. Find out more and schedule a demo or call here: www.bendixking.com/en/products/ai/autopilots-and-indicators/aerocruze-100
