mmusial Posted March 26, 2023 Report Share Posted March 26, 2023 I'm using this simulation and pilot edge to keep in practice when I'm not flying a real SR22 and some of the G1000 functionality isn't correct which is ok for the most part but one thing really does mess things up for practice. If you have waypoints in the flight plan (FPL) you cannot select one and use the direct to feature of a real G1000. If you hit direct to button you the data entry window in the G1000 to populate the waypoint. The real g1000 draws a magenta (GPS) line from your current position to the waypoint you selected direct-to and then you can use NAV mode in autopilot to navigate if you want to the new waypoint. Any workaround for this or an update that can be made to make this function correctly? Also the zoom out/in is backwards for the default realsimgear integration with this model. Zoom + actually zooms out and lets you see more of the map. Zoom - zooms in. Any easy way to swap this out, even on my end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted March 27, 2023 Report Share Posted March 27, 2023 Is this in XP11 or XP12? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmusial Posted March 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 This is XP11. the direct to button on the actual realsimgear G1000 MFD works as it should, except it erases all waypoint prior to the one you just selected as Direct To. The direct to button on the realsimgear GCU is the one that doesn't work. I'm now using the dataref tool and commandmap.ini to see what hitting the button on the Realsimgear MFD does vs the GCU. I may have to contact Realsimgear for this and see how they have it setup. in the meantime if it would be possible to update so the direct to function to not erase previous waypoints that would be great!

The flight plan waypoint behavior is an X-Plane bug, as the underlying navigator is the X1000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmusial Posted March 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2023 Thank you for the response, I contacted realsimgear to get the most up to date commandmap.ini file for their hardware and I think it will take care of the button behaviour!
