VNAV with PMS50 GTN750
-
Will the new PMS50 GTN750 VNAV feature that was added in v2.2.32 work with the Duke?

Reading the change log, it sounds like it will work, so long as you have the premium version of the GTN. All of my stand-alone aircraft have WTT integrated, so I have that part covered, at least. If you learn anything, please let me know, and I will do the same. Thank you!

@slkeyser I think you're referring to the VCALC function that only calculates the TOD for you.
But there is a new feature just a few days old in the PMS GTN that can actually fly the descent using autopilot, respecting altitude constraints of your arrival and approach procedures.
Realistically I would think that the Duke's autopilot can't be controlled by the GPS for vertical navigation, but in sim it could work, if you cheat and enable AP VNAV mode either from the GTN interface or via external control bindings.
I'll give it a try. -
Did anyone get this working? Do I have to be in ATT mode?
