We are here to help you with the issue, with which aircraft have you tried the autopilot with the TDS GTNXi? Did you try using any one of the VC integrated options that we have listed on our sales website?
It is a bit difficult understanding your previous message as you make reference to a GNS, which is not our product. Our product is the TDS GTNXi.
Yes, the autopilot will work with the TDS GTN 750Xi both laterally and vertically, bu selecting NAV mode form the interface (not heading) as well as engaging the autopilot in NAV mode.
There is no need to perform a complete reinstall at this point.
We would strongly suggest attempting a test flight with one of the officially supported VC integrated aircraft and then to please come back to us.
Hello,
Yes, I am taling about the TDS GTNXi. My use metion of GNS was a typo as I use those in the real world on a regular basis.
Anyway, after uninstall of the software and also uninstalling the Mooney M20 via the content manager then reinstalling, the GTNXi is working in VC mode. It couples to the autopilot and so on. All good there. However, if I use the technique above that wingrider mentioned, the guage no longer runs in "guage mode" but it also breaks the link to the autopilot.
This is what I need to accomplish: I do not want to use this in VC mode. VC mode is great but pointing at a 3D version of the panel and the avionics with a mouse and clicking is not the same as acutally using a touch screen monitor and manipulating the GTN as you would in the real world. Is there any way to currently run the GTN in "2D" mode on a separate monitor? VC mode does me no good as I don't use MSFS in that capacity.
According to a thread on this forum a year ago, this was possible by deleting the TDS GTNXi folder out of the community folder (see photo below my name). However, I tried this technique as well and while the GTN is no longer in "guage mode", once again, the link to the autopilot on the Carenado Mooney M20 supported aircraft is broken.
The popout feature (R ALT plus LMB) still yields a blank screen, not a 2D windowed version of the GTN.
Thanks again for the help.
