Rapid GNS530W CDI Toggle
-
You can uninstall the Working Title GNS's in the Content Manager.
Maybe this solves your problem. -
@hama But thats only a workaround for the moment.
I'm pretty sure the WT GNS will get the standard GNS when AAU1 finally arrives.
I only experienced this problem in the Warrior 2 and my Turbo Arrow, so I would appreciate a fix asap.
@xantrass i think i have found a solution.
Do have the GTN750 from pms50 inatalled, too?
If so, please go to the pms50 homepage, there you will find a hotfix for the GNS530 that solves the problem.
And of course we have to wait for an updated version of the GNS530 that fixes this permanently. -

@dguisinger ok, but maybe this patch solves your problem though.

@hama Hey,
I do not have the GTN750 istalled.
But even after I installed the Freeware version and applied the toggle fix the problem still existed.
So no workaround for me except uninstalling the WT GNS.

When the optional WT GNS530W is installed from marketplace, pressing GPS CDI button starts rapid toggle between GPS and VLOC states. Here is what I see in the XML - the aircraft is loading the standard template for AS530 buttons and the default action on 530 CDI button press is K:TOGGLE_GPS_DRIVES_NAV1. This template has been updated for GNS530W. This K event also effects the AP, and (guessing) Warrior seems to get into some sort of race condition inside the custom autopilot in this aircraft. Perhaps the AP source switch is also part of the unique behavior. The actual race is probably in the WASM for the AP and not the XML. Eventually something changes and the toggle ceases. Beyond GNS530W support changes, Just Flight needs to do a lot of modernization on this plane. For example a lot of tooltips no longer show. Does Just Flight have plan in place to modernize this aircraft to support the AAU1 sim update launch?

@gabe777 I haven't found that to work. I can't reliably get it to land on one or the other when it "stabilizes". If I want GPS it inevitably stabilizes on VLOC. If I want VLOC, it decides its going to run in GPS mode. If I can't actually chose which one i need based on the current situation in the cockpit the plane is worthless for shooting instrument approaches.

Still occurs after the MSFS AAU1 update

@dguisinger I don't think much changed at all with the full AAU1 release compared to the last AAU1 beta we had. I imagine JF have fixed it with the upcoming PA28 updates.
-
I had it after AAU1 too.
So i opened the content manager and saw that there are two GNS430/530 by Working Title listet now. So i uninstalled the older one (the one with the picture of the GNS), went to my community folder and deleted the fix from pms50.
After this the standard GNS worked as it should. -

@europa27 I hope so, I haven't seen any indication that JF is working on an update. The last thing I saw from them from last year was Flight Sim changed so often they were holding off on updates.
This is actually stopping me from spending more money with JF on other aircraft. I need to see that they actually fix and maintain them....

Have a look here (second from last post):

@europa27 Oh, that is great news. I wish they would have published that more publicly. I am excited to see that update and then get the other PA28s
