They should at least take you to dinner before doing this. No way is it worth that much. Tell them they have to install a GTN 650Xi for that price.

I’ve never had it disconnect before. If there is a servo vault the G5s will tell you. I had issues after the first flight when I picked it up but my shop help me clear the issue. Until yesterday it’s been great. I hope it was a one off. I used it after the disconnect without issue. Only recent...

We’re you in cruise and it would happen or because of turbulence?

Today while climbing my GFC 500 gave me a red blinking AP signal on my G5 display and disconnected. This is the first time I have had any issues this great autopilot. I have recently upgraded by G5s to 8.0. Anyone else have this issue before?

Touring flight and I had a quick engine stutter. It’s the third time this has happened in the past year. This time I was able to notice MP from 19.1 -19.3 for a few seconds. Fuel was sumped and next flight flew without incident.

That’s some trick stuff right there.

Field elevation is 1500. Climb is within book numbers. Last flight temp was around 60F with 800ft min climb till 3500. I haven't checked with a external tach to verify accuracy. But after annual I lost about 30rpm from 2600.

On my 1968 Piper Arrow 180 the rpms do not reach 2700 on takeoff. I currently get on my engine monitor 2570 and my tach shows around 2600. My mechanic states that its set to max adjustment on his end. Any suggestions?

Anyone update their certified G5s to 7.21?

I have a pa28r-180. The oscillations are intermittent. They have an update for models without pitot static ports on the fuselage. Garmin at one point wanted to use my plane to correct it but it was in annual. I’m on 6.82 G5’s. The garmin update was released this year Jan but I haven’t had time...

Has anyone with a Piper and GFC 500 updated to the newest software designed for planes without a fuselage mounted static port? It’s suppose to stop the oscillations while on alt hold.

Yes. The door hatch is on the list. I have a few minor squawks being fixed next week at my 50 hour oil change. My mechanic says is the thinning of the opening that is not leaving enough for the latch to hold on to. I bought the plane with the mirror. I'll ask the old owner to see.

Had my mechanic check it out and he adjusted idle which was too low. Last time he checked it with me it was around 600. When I checked it after this flight it was down to 350 but wasn't that low on runup. Maybe I was too fast on idle checks to bring it back to 1000. Ive been landing on Runway 8...

With live games in Arizona for Hockey, I knew I had to go and what better excuse than to take the Arrow. Hit some great speeds 186 knots GS and turbulence along the way. Engine quit right after landing at Glendale (GEU).

Jpi customer service is trash. Already bought a new probe for my unit. Defective EGT probe.

With a destination. I know that fuel way quantity updates correct but nothing else. But when I pull data logs it shows gps.

I changed the setting to fadc 1 for input and fuel updates but I still don’t get gps destination. I still get “No gps Des” when I download the logs I do get gps coordinates though.

THanks

Has anyone use the checklist function with their GTN 650 with flight stream 510 installed?

No the shop needs to check it out. He’s an excellent pilot. I have dual G5’s and can go toe to toe with shops and you would be shocked at how much the shops don’t knows and make mistakes. The shop that did my install was shocked at the everything I knew install wise. He explained to me when we...
