Fuel range rings and bezel - MRAviation - 10-29-2024
Just got TDS Pro and love it! wow
Question. I can't get the fuel range ring to show up. I have entered a full flight plan and fuel in utilities, but the fuel range ring does not show up in zoom out. This is where you will be able to see where you can fly to before you run out of 100LL (unless there is a cloud-9 fuel station nearby) LOL. Is this coming in a future update? searching around I saw a futures list but now can't find it.
Bezel. Carenado PC12 has the home button just above the "direct to" button but not on the Grand Duke. The grand duke is at the very top right corner. Is there a setting somewhere to fix this?
Thanks

Hello,
Thank you for your kind words.
As the TDS GTNXi Pro is a highly realistic unit, we simulate the Fuel Range Ring as in real life. We would strongly suggest reading the real GTNXi manual for correct functionality.
For the fuel range ring, you must check/enable:
TDS GTNXi interface->Desired Unit->Digital Fuel Computer
Inside the GTNXi in Map Mode, Menu, Map Setup, (default map tab) scroll down and enable Fuel Range Ring, you can set the reserve as well
You must be flying for the Fuel Range Ring to display as a green dotted circle
In regards to the bezel, what you are reporting has to do with the 3d model of the respective aircraft. The Duke uses the old GTN bezel, vs the new GTNXi, hence the minor differences. 3D models are implemented by the aircraft add-on developers, not by us. We have a full SDK available with the GTN Xi 3d model/textures/code, so such requests must be made to them.
Please enjoy the TDS GTNXi.
