I installed on Windows the RSG G5 v2.0.1 update. The DTK for GPS is now
incorrect. All other indications appear to be correct. Please see attached
photos.

I'm also experiencing this same issue. When shooting an RNAV approach yesterday the G5 magenta needle was completely off, it seemed to be pointing to nowhere, and I had to use the GTN650's CDI needle instead. I makes it currently unusable for RNAV. Am I able to re-install the prior version?

Nothing was changed in relation to the CDI with this version, we have this bug as something to look into.

Problem Found.  After I had installed the RSG G5 V2.0.1, my Reality XP GTN650 was no longer activated. It occurred to me if the GTN650 had been deactivated, perhaps its settings had also changed. Sure enough "Connect HSI/CRS (auto-slew)" was not selected. I selected it and now DTK agrees between the G5 and the 650.
