Ok, I've searched the forum and have recieved some info. Curious what others may think. Hypothetical question with a side of "I may be looking at two aircraft and need a little hand-holding and possibly a hug". #1: Steam with everything in fantastic working order. (Not my plane) #2...

What are you fellow pilots hoping to see from brand G?

Just thought I would share this Garmin panel out there. Purchased the plane with most of it done, then added the GFC500 last month. Also added the GCO14 CO Detector and SmartGlide button. I must say VNAV is the bees knees. Using the G3x as the engine monitor is not something I have seen a...

I wanted to get familiar with the G1000 in a Piper Archer, if anybody know how I can obtain this without shelling out 60 bucks to Garmin please let me know! I found a few torrents for it on some Russian trackers, but none have any seeds :( I know there is an iPad app for it, but I heard it is...

Newly minted sport pilot here. Wanting to learn more. Couple of things: 1. Be more facile with Garmin PFD Looking for a cheaper/easier way to learn the more nuanced ins/outs of the Garmin PFD than while actually flying. Changing the GPS flight plan midflight is difficult for me. I build my...

Came out of my own airplane for a panel upgrade. Worked flawlessly prior to removal, I have witnesses that are registered users here as well, if needed. Display is 100%, no dead pixels. The condition is mint. Unit was purchased directly from Garmin and spent only 18 months in the panel until a...

Came out of my own airplane for a panel upgrade, 14V unit, in like-new condition. Worked prior to removal, I have witnesses that are registered users here as well, if needed. 14V box. Never had any problems with any buttons sticking. I am asking $250 shipped. Or if the unit sits here too long...

Came out of my own airplane for a panel upgrade. Worked prior to removal, I have witnesses that are registered users here as well, if needed. 14V box. Display is 100%, no dead pixels. Never had any problems with the radio or any buttons sticking. As you can see, some of the buttons are wearing...

Plane is an older 172 - currently has two kx155 nav/coms in it Wanting to get it set up to use for some ifr training, on a budget of course These are the two options we are considering and would like to hear some others thoughts on one versus the other - 1) Add a 430w, FS210, cdi, remove one...

Hi, I'm looking for an avionics tech that is familar with Garmin avionics. If you are one or know of a reliable tech, please let me know. You can comment here or shoot me an email [email protected]. Thanks.

FYI I have done my research but want to get feedback from people who have zeroed out pitch attitude in flight. This is a club plane. It is in hanger for annual, which I am teaching Instrument students. I asked our club maintenance, A&P / AI to adjust it so it reads level in cruise not 3 degrees...

Hello, I'm wanting to start my IFR training but need to do some upgrades to make my 182Q IFR check ride ready. Was hoping I could just pop a Garmin GPS 175 for now but I think I might have to do some other stuff to make it IFR Check ride ready? It is ADS-B out already and it was IFR certified...

Minor frustration with Garmin here. When looking at 'Recent Frequencies' on the G3x, it will show the designation of the frequency. (Tower, Approach, AWOS, etc.). The GTN, however, just shows the frequency. Not sure if there is a fix or I missed a configuration somewhere. Just annoying.

Hello, Recently purchased a liberty xl2 with a Garmin G430 in it. The maps are not displaying. Any idea what is needed to update this feature?

Looking for a way to connect a 430W and a 375 to a King 525 HSI. The 430W is already connected to the HSI while the 375 is new to the stack. Been looking for some type of interface/switch that would work but “no joy” to date. Any thoughts??

I have a Garmin GTX-45r mounted behind my panel, controlled through the GDU-465 display in a G3X system. The ifr navigator is a GNC-355. Does the GTX-45r qualify as a mode-s in this install, and if so, what is the best way to make sure it is setup properly?

I have researched this, but there seems to be no information or it simply cannot be done. If I get a mini 2 I would like to pair with my Ipad (wifi only) and use the GPS from the Mini 2 to use Foreflight in my Ipad. Seems simple enough as it's my understanding the Ipad via BLUETOOTH should...

Is it worthwhile putting in a used g500 mfd/pfd. i would buy a g3x but it isnt available until late in the year and i have appointment now for a 750 i ordered in february. i just wanted to get feedback on getting a used g500 instead of going with 2 g5s instead? thanks

When an aircraft gets upgraded avionics like a GPS, autopilot, and electronic flight instruments in a mid 1970s aircraft for example; is an aircraft flight manual supplement required and must it be printed and carried along with the aircraft or can it be in digital format? Same with the required...

Hello aviators, I'm planning on buying an aircraft a bit later this year, most aircraft in my price range has the original autopilot and/or an inop one. I've narrowed down to Garmin's GMC 507, how many GSA 28 servos do I need? If I got two G5s, can I remove the vacuum system, or do I need it as...
