Any issues with using Reality XP with the 430’s? I have the Real Sim gear Entegra setup with the DFC90 AP and it is working well. I don’t want to run into an issue by adding the XP. RealSim gear website has info on using Reality XP and their products. Just want to hear from someone who has done it.

This is from my DFC90 manual. I think when you set the ALT to “0” the autopilot is also trying to capture that altitude. When I am flying my SR22 (which is always over the mountains here in Northern CA and Southern OR, I am constantly thinking about what I would do in a loss of engine power. My process would be: 1. Sync the HDG bug on my PFD by pressing the lower right knob. 2. Set my DFC90 to HDG. IAS and use the dedicated IAS knob to set 88. 3. Make sure AP is pushed. Now I am flying straight at an IAS of 88. I would expect my plane to briefly gain some altitude to go from 120 to 88. Engine out, 120 to 88 will happen fast. The DFC90 will now “sacrifice altitude to maintain IAS of 88.” I can now use my heading bug to fly (glide) to a safe are for a CAPS pull if I can not get an in air engine restart. R

I have the proflight pedals. I have the toe brakes set to “Right Toe Brake and Left Toe Brake.” Both Pedals to “Yaw.” Parking brake to “Toggle brakes max effort.” It sounds like you have very similar settings. I have not experienced the issue you are having with these settings. R

I have flown 3 hrs on Entegra 1.2 and things are working nicely. I have the RSG console, DFC90 and yoke. No issues so far. No system crashing!!. It was nice to see the engine fire up right away vs. cranking for 20 seconds. Actually caught me off guard. R

The RSG DFC90 is fantastic. It has multifunction button application (IAS and ALT) capture at the same time when pushed. Very happy with the new RSG hardware. Works like the one in my 2005 G2 R

Thank you for adding this to the updated release. I have a RSG Entegra console with a garmin 500. The simultaneous IAS and ALT, VS and ALT seem to work as expected. I will be swapping the Garmin 500 for a RSG DFC90 in the near future and I will let you know how accurate it is to the actual one in my SR22 I have not had any issues so far with update release. R

Yes the RSG yoke is moving with the trim and I can see the yoke on the SIM moving also. When I trim the RSG for TO it appears the SIM yoke is pitched down.

Has this been addressed? RSG has released a DFC90 autopilot. If the simultaneous button support has been updated I would consider getting it and selling the GFC500 that is in my console. This would give me a very accurate representation of my cockpit in my SR22 R

I have the RSG Avidyne console and recently purchased their cirrus yoke. When i set the TO trim on the yoke it does not appear to match the sim yoke position. At TO is the SR22 flying the RSG yoke position or the sim position? If it is flying the sim position how do I sync them to match? R

I was sitting on the runway at KMFR and was just doing a quick flight to KSIY. (Very common flight I do in real life) I did a Direct TO on both GPS 1 and 2. The purple D with arrow to KSIY is in both GPS units. The units do not recognize that I am at KMFR. I am not sure what Airports the units thought I was at. It appears that unit 1 and unit 2 think they are different airports that is why the DTK’s are different. It looks like the GPS’s are retaining flight information from previous flights. Another issue going on is the Flight plan way points are not transmitting to the upper right MFD corner. The final way point is what is being shown. When I have a flight plan loaded the next way point should show up in the upper MFD.

I am flying the duel 430 DFC 90 Entegra Avidyne SR22. GNS 430 com 1 set to GPS. PFD primary line select key set to GPS1. Flight plan direct to some airport shows magenta line. However, the CDI green lines are following the DTK from the GNS430's that are completely wrong direction. Takeoff and follow the runway heading AP HDG IAS ALT. Autopilot is behaving like expected. Time to fly the flight plan. Hit GPSS and expect to pick up the magenta flight plan line. Autopilot turns and picks up the DTK from the GNS430. I head off in a completely wrong direction. I put the same direct to airport in GNS 1 and 2. Had two completely different DTK. 237 and 346. the correct DTK should have been 139. Log.txt

i think i figure it out. When i pop out the 430's sometimes they hide in the back ground. If i try to pop them out again the system would crash.

here is the log text file. I can not pop out the 430's to drag them down to RSG 430. has crashed numerous times in a row tonight. Log.txt

here is a txt file that just happened. I was trying to undock COM 1 ts3client_2021-12-22__17_18_09.717605.log
