Ok a update-I think I have fixed it. I had a missing file in the plugins folder of x plane 10. For some reason it just didn't install. What I did was download the x plane 9 demo and loaded it on a different drive. Then I installed the garmin 530 in x plane 9. I then found the missing file in the plugins folder. I just copied and pasted it to the plugins folder of x plane 10. Everything is working fine right now. Thanks

I'm running x plane 10.10 and I just bought the Garmin 530 gps for the bk117. I installed it per the instructions and only loaded the files and plugins for x plane 10. When asked I pionted to the x plane folder for the install and now I've got problems. The gps screen is dark and unresponsive. I tried to power up the unit by the switch and nothing-dead. Also there are not any of the plugins loaded up under the plugin menu. Did I do something wrong in the install? Maybe a plugin file is missing from the plugin folder-but which one? The install was automatic and supposed to place everything properly. Can someone please tell me step by step how to install this correctly to get this to work? Thanks

Ok- I think I fixed it. I when to "operations and warings" and put the flight model at 2. That seems to have stopped the shaking. Thanks

I'm getting some strange shaking in the outside views in the 3d cockpit of the bk117. The helicopter is "cold and dark"-- engines off. This shaking effect is only either to the outside left and outside right, center is fine. The buildings and trees are shking. If I zoom in the shaking gets worse, and zooming back out lessens it. I'm running xp 10.05 right now.My video card is a zotac gtx 580 3gb ram ock'd. I do notice that in other outside views( shift 4 example) the shaking stops and everything is fine. It happens only in the 3d cockpit. Also I'm not using track ir5 which I have, this is happening with mouse on, ( tried track ir5 does the same thing). Does anybody have any ideas on how to correct this?
