JoB4031 Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 New to modifying/updating X-Plane aircraft instruments. I have the G500 working with the modified default C172 provided with the installation. I also have XReality GTN 750 & 650 setup with JustFlight's Arrow aircraft (just worked) and then the default C172 (required additional files to be downloaded and copied to the aircraft folder). So, when the product page listed " Integration with the RealityXP GTN and GNS avionics for even more accurate behavior!", I was hoping for the default G500 to just work with the GTN plugin, but it isn't. I tried to copy the additional files that I copied to the default C172 to get it to work. The GTN 3d panels did display, but the G500 panel did not. I could toggle a G500 window with or without bezels from the plugin menu. So how do I get both the G500 and GTN750/650 to work? Thank you for your assistance.

Coop Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 We don't have a shipping version with the G500 and GTNs in the C172. We did design the G500 to be able to parse the data from RealityXP when configured. We have this setup on the TorqueSim Islander integrations.

JoB4031 Posted March 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) Okay, so either of the TorqueSim Islander aircraft when installed will be able to have both the G500 and GTN plugins working (displayed on the 3D panel) together from the get-go? Can I use one of these models to configure the C-172's instruments to work with both? Any recommendations on developer instructions on adding the G500 to an airplane's instrument panel? Thank you. -Jonathan Edited March 31, 2022 by JoB4031 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a community Carenado PC-12 integration also available, here. Integration of the GTN into the C172 G500 3D cockpit of the C172 manually would be quite difficult without the source objects for the C172 and Blender and/or AC3D experience.
