Using HDG Mode Question - GAJ1952 - 06-18-2021
I only fly the Just Flight Arrow when flying GA in MSFS.
I have the TDS GTNXi v1.0.0.4 installed and because I was getting quite bad jerkiness when using NAV mode, someone suggested its better connecting the GTNXi to the autopilot using HDG mode which I have selected in the GTNXi options page. However when I load a flight plan in the GTN and select GPS with the CDI button the GTNXi I get a CTD with the GTNXi not MSFS.
Can someone please give me the correct sequence with connecting the JF Arrow autopilot to the GTNXi using HDG mode.
Thanks Glen

Hello Glenn,
We are here to help as much as we can. CTDs are a very serious problem, so let's work on getting them fixed. Are you able to always replicate the issue?
We may have to send you a test version with logging, based on your response.
Do not worry, we will get this problem solved!
RE: Using HDG Mode Question - GAJ1952 - 06-18-2021
Yes it happens every time I select GPS using the CDI button of the GTNXi.
RE: Using HDG Mode Question - adminOwner2 - 06-18-2021
Hello Glenn,
With the TDS GTNXi closed, can you please try deleting the TDSGTN.ini file located here:
C:\ProgramData\TDS\GTNXi\FlightSimEXE
Then start the the TDS GTNXi and attempt replicating the problem. Please let us know how it works out.

Sorry about the delay.
I tried deleting the TDSGTN.ini file but that made no difference. I then re-downloaded the TDS GTN Manager, using this uninstalled the GTNXi Flight Sim, then successfully reinstalled the latest version v1.0.0.4.
Started MSFS and loaded the default C172 (non glass instrument version).
Started the TDS GTNXi and selected the GTN750Xi.
Under Settings I selected 'Heading' under Connect GPS to Autopilot.
Then loaded a very simple flight plan in the GTNXi 'EGLK - EGHP - EGHI'
Pressed the CDI button to select GPS while still on the ground and after 4 or 5 seconds the GTNXi CTD
This happens every time.

RE: Using HDG Mode Question - GAJ1952 - 06-23-2021
Can somebody please try this and see if they get a CTD with the GTNXi
Load a default aeroplane in MSFS such as the C172 (non glass cockpit)
Start the engine and turn on the avionics
Start the GTNXi, go to GTN750Xi settings
Where it says Connect GPS to Autopilot, select 'Heading'
In the GTNXi go to Map and ensure VLOC is selected via the CDI switch
Load a very simple flight plan
Select the Map display
Press the CDI to change the mode to GPS
Do you get a GTNXi CTD within about 5 seconds ?
