RobertErdman Posted October 24, 2018 Report Share Posted October 24, 2018 Has anyone been successful performing an ILS approach while using the RealityXP Garmin GTN 750 in the TBM 900. For some reason the autopilot will not capture and hold the glideslope. Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goran_M Posted October 24, 2018 Report Share Posted October 24, 2018 This is not recommended. So much is going on in the TBM, by way of custom code, that bringing in another nav device can have seriously unpredictable behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertErdman Posted November 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I dont use the RealityXP Garmin GTN 750 in the TBM 900. I use the stock G1000, and it is really a great alternative. Take the time to read the G1000 manual and give it a try you will probably like it as much or more than the RealityXP Garmin GTN 750. The Flight planning and RNV work well. Only thing lacking is the TOD, but if you use the rule-of-thumb it works every time. I use the RealityXP Garmin GTN 750 a lot, just not in this airplane. I dont know that the developer advertises the G1000 capabilities enough, it really is good: as you would expect from Goran Matovina.

Goran_M Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 When comparing the G1000 to the GTN 750, it's like comparing a mechanics garage to a home tool kit. The G1000 can do so much more than the GTN. In saying that, if you choose to add the GTN to the TBM, you will definitely void all support. As I said in a post further up, a lot is going on behind the scenes, that using anything outside software will have unpredictable results.

mihauzb Posted February 13, 2021 Report Share Posted February 13, 2021 Functionaly of X1000 in are great... but, GTN are more user-friendlly. Also touch-screen do it's job great (out of rescaling screen time-to-time) Since last update, I had great compability, but now it's stuck on "ARRIVING WPT" message with no reaction to flight plan/Direct to button action :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VNAV works fine with the Laminar Research G1000. The map view should show a TOD on your route once you've entered vertical constraints in the flight plan view.
