The X-Cub and King Air 350i have NAV and APR buttons, but I can't find a way to set frequencies. Are these MSFS model limitations or real plane limitations?

Those planes use touch screen Garmins. This video is a good primer:
Thermaltake H570 TG Tower
X670 Aorus Elite AX motherboard
AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12-Core Processor
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070
NZXT Kraken X cooler
32GB DDR5 RAM
750 Watt PS
Windows 11 Home
The real King Air has Collins avionics, but MS/Asobo have just cobbled in a G3X with multiple screens. All three have the same Split option, but you have to lower your view a little to see that button on the center display.

Great videos. Much to learn,. Many thanks for your help.
It's worth noting that the latest patch pretty much broke the autopilots for any kind of IFR flying.
For whatever reason, Asobo decided to "smooth" the autopilots out by making them massively shallow out the bank angle when they get within about 30 degrees of the desired heading or course, so turns now take long enough that the ATC (which is already questionable for IFR flying) is utterly baffled, and instrument approaches basically require hand-flying if you're doing anything but a stupidly long final on an ILS.
What a bummer! That does not fare well for MS's goal for its sim to be used for training purposes. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
