530W popup with linkgps=on gives me control over comm1 and nav1 from the RXP popup. It doesn't change the stndy freqs when you change them on the 530W though. Once you put the active freq in the 530 it will swap to the correct spot on the G1000. If you enter a FP in the 530 it will display on the g1000 (but not amazingly beautiful as usual), and the current waypoint will display the name, distance, and bearing on the PFD G1000. ETE is correctly displayed on the G1000/MFD. The CDI on the G1000 slaves to the correct track for current waypoint on the 530. On autopilot the 530 WAAS approach was flown well for the LNAV portion. Unfortunately you're right I don't see the LPV glide path markers on the PFD. Though I'm not sure I have them on the Cirrus either. Oddly enough, the autopilot with ARM selected, WILL fly the LPV portion guided by the 530 hehe... Not that it helps you because how do we navigate without guidance on the PFD?? (well I guess we can do LNAV minimums) Here's a pic of what I see on the approach... gives you an idea of what the linkgps=on can do (and can't do!). I think you'd want to pass since the glide path isn't showing. Maybe Bert can work some magic but I don't see any entry on the rxp.ini that would control this...

Fps are good. The G1000 system textures are lower res than with the cirrus. The mfd looks very blocky and not crisp like their cirrus.

I'm working today ill get back to you.

Just curious, why aren't you using Anti-Aliasing? You have a GTX 570 according to your signature. It makes FS look a thousand times better, even at low settings. Those "jaggies" would drive me absolutely insane after 5 seconds. :kilroy:

The X-52 pro is average quality except the awful cable that connects the throttle to the joystick. The connection took less than a year to start going bad. The little mouse/cursor thing on it ended up bugging out all the time so I had to disable it. I ended up getting rid of the joystick and just using the throttle from it. I got a CH Products joystick to go along with it. I am very frustrated by the quality of consumer joysticks. CH Products makes the best consumer-grade stuff, though they go bad after a while too. For the price I can't say I would recommend it.

I had to pick this one up since they added flight planning in the G1000. I am impressed by the frame rate. I am holding steady at between 28 and 30 fps (locked at 30). Unfortunately the large MFD is not very high resolution. That's probably one of the reasons the FPS is so good. The torque/RPM relationship seems to be modeled fairly well. She climbs right by the numbers too. Only disappointment thus far is the sounds. But I guess that was to be expected when coming from such a superb turboprop simulation like the Q400... Not sure what Barfly means by no actual reverse. I was able to back her up and turn her around without pushback. Back to the flight!

Matt just put a 530W popup in... That's what I did for their others... Then use RXP.ini to add link to G1000. You can't expect F1 style g1000 from Carenado...

Only a $1000 to buy now!

I want one of these... :mixedsmi: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/973129-REG/canon_5176b002_ef_200_400mm_f_4l_is.html

Anyone know the history on the pilot voiceover from that clip?

This and the Nvidia Inspector settings recommended by PMDG are the only changes I've made to my CFG and they work great. Haven't had to mess around with FSX settings for years now. :wiggle:

This guide is more updated and I prefer it: http://kostasfsworld.wordpress.com/fsx-software-and-hardware-guide/ Honestly, before you try any guide, all I would do is add the highmemfix=1 under the GRAPHICS section of your cfg and adjust video settings to how you want in inspector (or AMD catalyst). Nick N still has decent recommended settings for inspector (nvidia).

Where's the staggerwing? :mixedsmi:
