New compatibility with our GTN 650/750 and the third-party GTN software from PMS50. More information on use and installation can be found here.
Our GNS 530 is also compatible with the PMS50 GNS Mod for MSFS with our latest version of the MSFS Addon. Click this link for an overview on how our Addon works, how to install, and where to report any potential problems after MSFS updates
Currently, our G1000 XFD modules, GNS 430/530s, GTN 650/750s GPS modules, GFC500/700 autopilots, and GMA 350 / GMA addon audio panels with limited use of our GCU47X and GCU479s are being used by our customers with various MSFS aircraft.
As Asobo continues to update the platform we will continue to improve the compatibility of our gear in tandem.
