Request - G1000NXI Option For Future Black Square Aircraft In Development
-
I haven't really heard much about the future plans for the Pro King Air, but having that Beauty with a Glass and a six-pack option would be phenomenal.
The working title G1000 is actually pretty good tbh. It doesn't have all the functionality, but has what's needed.
-
While I have no current plans to add G1000 support to my aircraft, the most likely candidates would be the TBM and the King Air. I will say that I have a future aircraft planned to include glass panel avionics, but I was leaning towards the WT G3X + GNS 750 combo that I have in the velocity, as this more closely resembles the upgrades done to this particular aircraft in the real world.
Since I love seeking the advice of my users, what do you all think of the WT G3X + GNS 750 vs. WT G1000 for a GA aircraft?
-
G1000 if its a newer certified aircraft
G3X + GTN 750 if its an older aircraft with an avionics retrofit like the FSW Sierra. -

@Black-Square The G3X + GTN750/650 stack would be perfect for your lineup of aircraft. It's one of the most common and popular retrofits nowadays, even my cheap flying club has recently upgraded an old C172N to the G3X/GTN.
Personally, if it's not too much to ask for and not too late already, I'd love to see that as an option in addition to the steam gauge variants in your upcoming Bonanza/Baron professional series. One can dream I guess.

Here's my opinion. Offer the Pro version aircraft in a default avionics configuration as a single product. Then, if there is demand for a particular avionics upgrade for particular planes, offer an avionics upgrade as an add-on product.
You could have a G1000 upgrade and A G3X upgrade as two additional products. I would be cool paying for WT avionics integrated in your fine aircraft.

@Buzz I think that would be the best option, make it optional for folks that would like this that wouldn't mind paying for it, just like in real life!
@Kestrel21 The question is, would there be enough demand for Nick to do the extra development?

@Black-Square G1000Nxi please. Optional TDS GTN always please.
-
But please only if there is an STC for it unless it's an airplane natively equipped with the G1000. It's a super rare retrofit option.
-
note that a Kingair has the Proline 21 or fusion now, not Garmin avionics !
so pls if you want to do a more modern variant a PL21 would be great.
