YA.. can be done.. The switch would have to switch the nav data between the TT and the Aspen. Use a 3PST (on - on) switch. "Normal" position sends nav or GPSS data to the Aspen, and the Aspen will act as a switch in selecting which Nav steering device you want. I am fairly sure that if the...

Hehe... OK... Let's see... >>>Both require a flight plan loaded and active correct? Correct! >>For instance, on the GTN, I can spin the Desired radial indicator on the GI106 and the GTN will show the selected radial on the GPS. This does not drive the AP correct? Correct again.. :) The GPS...

SimTech has it... exactly.. We have the panel GPS delivering GPSS on the ARINC 429 buss... And the G 796 on the yoke delivering GPS Nav on the RS 232 data connection. We use a 3PST switch to select one or the other. The TT will accept either...

Hmmm... thinking…. From other sources, and BECAUSE this us a thread titled "Trio vs TruTrak" . Not to crap on the Trio (it flies planes very well) .. but it will allow you to engage the lateral and vertical modes separately, and I can imagine where this might be nice to do. BUT... It also...

To add to Lynn's comments... The Min and Max speeds are set in the Setup menu.. The Max speed is set for (.9X Vne in Knots), the Min speed is set at (1.3 Vs clean) in Knots. If approaching Min speed, it pitches down and warns that the plane is at Min sped, at Max speed it warns and pitches up...

Hehe.... I resemble that... :) I also like the way it approaches the Preset Alt. Actually slows the VS and approaches the preset gently and settles on it. I flew an AP years ago that "pushed over" rather abruptly at the preset. Thought there was something wrong the first time when it slowed...

Understood.. As an aside, our TT is still "fun" to play with, trying to "wring it out" and see what it can do.. Particularly impressed with the deadly accuracy of the system. ALT hold literally "sticks" the altimeter, and the magenta line is directly under the aircraft, even zoomed in in a...

I asked the question directly to Mike Studley, Aspen's Northeast rep. He responded that the PRESENT Aspen firmware would have to be upgraded to work with all 4 features of the Aspen<>TT interface. The upgrade can be done in a few minutes by an Aspen dealer.. AFTER the interface/softwares mods...

Ahhh…. Look at the displays in the sunlight... not the same at all. Aspen has a TFT display, easy to see in the sunlight and with polarised glasses. The LED Garmin displays are "washed out" in the sunlight (read - barely visible) and are difficult with polarised glasses.. A world of difference...

Especially with new "Options" arriving (it seems)…. monthly... I think we are just getting started... C

UR not alone... I hope we can wait for the Aspen (DG getting noisy) until the software integration is on line.... If earlier we will have to fly the plane to the Aspen dealer to get the software flashed.. Not a HUGE deal, but... The TT head just goes back to TT for the flash.. I would do the...

Nothing mentioned in the Webinar Unit74... about a yaw dampener.. I was on another forum, the general consensus there was that a yaw dampener is kinda in another (upper) class of AP.. but who knows.. Auto pitch trim is DEFINATELY on the TruTrak radar though, certed approaches and IAS select...

I did! Found it very helpful and informative... I now understand the difference between "velocity" servos and "positional" servos better and why TruTrak do NOT want to let a pilot SEPARATELY disengage the lateral and vertical modes. (Trio allows it, but has a couple of "veiled" cautions...

Ya... I guess when the STC became a reality for the PA-32s, the TruTrak phone lit up... They had a bunch already to go but I think they were mostly pre-orders.. Gota remember the Vision is very popular with the Cessna guys as well.. Zach, Corey and Steve have been amazing, and very patient with...

Here's your chance! :)

I hear it was getting cramped... They are a couple of months away yet from getting in their new digs....

Thanks for this Unit! This is good news for those that already have a G5 and want to go with the TT! TT had the interface working in late 2017, but Corey was unsure that they would be able to persue it to market at the time... But TT has always worked hard on the interface of their products...

Agreed, but still a miss in the feature list... (IMHO)

Hear a lot of stuff, mostly noise, but the only G5 I have ever heard of talking to a TT is the one Zach's workbench at TT... The docs I offered on the TTs went to one PILE of people, I have heard back from many of them, none have mentioned they are driving it with a G5, (but there may be...)...
