It seems to be only doing it with the Baron and Bonanza. It currently makes it unflyable for me as the GTN 750 just randomly cuts out from no input. I have checked bindings. I will post on the TDS discord.

Just doing a flight now and the GTN750 has gone completely blank. The 650 is still working.

If I pull CB COM/NAV 2 it turns off both GTNs. If I only pull the COM/NAV 1 it doesnt turn off either. Not sure if this might point to the issue?

That's an interesting observation. The electrical circuits are set correctly, and everything is working as expected on my end. Were you able to get in touch with TDS to brainstorm with their other user reporting the same issue?

babybus

Yes. They pointed it to being an issue with the aircraft unfortunately. Maybe I’ll try a full install and reinstall of both aircraft and TDS.

Black Square

That's unfortunate, since it's an issue I can't reproduce. If you wanted to investigate further, do you have any experience with developer mode? Looking at the electrical circuits for COM1 and COM2 when this happens and when you pull the breakers might give us a hint.

Hi, I'm experiencing a variant of this issue. Both TDS and PMS50 GTN don't load well. Sometimes they try to switch on after connecting avionics but in a few seconds they disconnect and don't reappear again. Both work fine in the Dukes. The 530 also does not load in this situation, but the 430 does load.

@Villajota I'm still hoping this is something at the TDS level, since I don't think there's anything different about how these new aircraft are configured, but since you suggest that other GPS units are involved too, have you tried temporarily removing the TDS package from your community folder to see if the others then work? That could help us narrow it down.
