Issues with new install
#1
I unfortunately just purchased this software and almost immediately  regretted it. I was hoping it would integrate as advertised into MSFS 2020. Sadly I must have been mistaken. I even went so far as to purchased the Piper Arrow III  as it was listed in the VC integrated cockpit list. I installed the software, update to the latest version of the Garmin GTN trainer which I have been using for years, installed and even reinstalled the TDS GPS manager and reinstalled/updated everything from there as well to no avail.
1) When I launch TDSSIM is seems to load fine. If I click on the 650 or 650 it seems to open the 650/750 screen where I can interact with the unit as I would normally
2) When I launch FS2020, TDSSIM immediately closes. when I reopen it it states that it is in gauge inset mode or something to that effect however the VC cockpit is still that of a 1967 Arrow III.
3) MSFS  has been updated
4) I have looked through the Arrow III option and found nothing that lets me use the 650/750 VC

Any help would be appreciated. So far I find this software to be not worth the effort....especially when it claims "No Need to Install any Mods blah blah blah."

Hello Dave,

We are sorry to hear that you are having issues, we are here to help.

The TDS GTNXi works as advertised and no, you do not need to install any mods, let's clear up a few items. We take great pride in correctly advertising our products, as well as tech support into correctly running the products, so you can enjoy the purchased software.

Please make absolutely sure that you have the latest Just Flight Piper. If you have installed recently, then you have the latest.
How are you making the change to the TDS GTNXi inside the Just Flight Piper? According to the JustFlight manual, to change to the TDS GTNXi radio stack, you must access the copilot's tablet (EFB)and cycle the GPS Source to TDS GTNXi. A screenshot will be posted in this thread.

Not to worry, we take great care of our customers and we will resolve this problem.

Good luck and please let us know how it goes.
