Excellent explanation of the G3X! Audio is outstanding (no engine noise). So nice to see Vr, Vx, Vg, Vy and Va speed bugs available on the airspeed tape. Makes me want to buy a plane just to have a vehicle to put the G3X in and fly!!! Headed to Oshkosh in 23 days and taking my checkbook (wife is very scared)!! I'm a 7,000 hour pilot and the older I get (now in my 60s), the more excited I get about 3.5 GPH at 100 TAS!! Never tire of watching videos like this.

Of course. So what I do is turn on the autopilot with the heading or track mode. Recenter the track / heading by pressing on the heading dial on the autopilot. At that point I can use the left and right dial to make sure the autopilot is working laterally. Vertical modes are difficult to check on the ground. Once I confirm the AP is pushing the stick in the right directions, I confirm it will disconnect and the controls are free and clear.

Much bigger screen, less legacy clutter, better synthetic vision, no legacy engine gauges etc. You could try doing approaches to landing with engine off on a glide slope. Should be peaceful. A glimpse of what flying could be without awful shaky piston engines and propellers. It also has the advantage that you will always have altitude enough if the engine fails on approach.

I am curious why the G3X designers didn’t implement synthetic vision display while taxing around the airport. On high end Jets that I used to fly, it does just that. It shows taxi way signs and the taxiway itself on your PFD while taxing to the runway. On G3X it looks like you only get green ground and blue sky until you are turning on the runway itself. It’s a minor detail but it seems like an easy solution to include that to enhance SA even more.
@ArizonaAirspace3 жыл бұрын
Why? What high end jet? What avionics? You might be comparing $100,000 avionics with $5000 avionics. On the ground a map showing taxiways and runway map, airport diagram with georeference is not synthetic vision. *The Garmin G3X does have georeferenced FliteCharts and SafeTaxi airport diagrams.* Synthetic vision shows terrain and FLIGHT PATH typically in a 3D format. You don't need terrain or flight path on ground. *An airport diagram with georeference is fine. Hey here is an idea LOOK OUT THE WINDSCREEN and read the signs... Ha ha.*

Unfortunately I do not have a Garmin Navigator connected to my system, so that's not something I can answer for you. Generally you would do all of your instrument approach setup in a Navigator and the G3X would be able to accept / display it. You can setup a very complex flight plan in the G3X using any airport, GPS waypoint (defined or user generated), VOR or any other navigation item on a VFR / IFR map. I used the custom feature to fly a logo pattern once.

We have a new G#X in a C177RG and have found the same kind of error. Does someone know whats happening?
@leoburman3 жыл бұрын
Hmm Interesting observation. So my understanding (an educated guess) is that the wind component is derived from other onboard info, specifically the compass, GPS and airspeed. By taking a look at the difference from heading and course, air speed vs. ground speed it should calculate these values. You will notice that the wind is only a couple of knots...given my TAS the relative wind is about 2% of my airspeed...so I will imagine that the direction and speed calculations are going to be relatively close but not perfect. If the wind is really blowing it should be pretty accurate. I would give it time to settle in on your heading to calculate the right amount. I can also tell by the slip indicator that it's pretty accurate post the 12:00 mark. Other thing to consider, I'm pretty high in the middle of the Delta...winds can be variable especially when light. My suggestion...fly it and enjoy it.
@FlyWithShawn3 жыл бұрын
Not an expert on the 3GX, having flown the Dynon Skyview in my old plane. Here because my new aircraft build is going to be G3X. However, being a similar function... As you stated, the winds are derived from GPS data and your ADHRS system. Typically, any wild errors are a result of the compass needing to be calibrated. Compass calibration is fairly simple on the Dynon, doing a few 360's in the air... Worth looking into on the G3X, as well.

Thanks. I don’t know that there is any difference in terms of functionality. The certified version may actually have less features but I doubt it. I suspect it’s just a different sku that has been certified to work as expected under different conditions.
Great video and very detailed. What plane are you flying?
I'm flying a 2019 BRM Aero - Bristell. It's a two place SLSA with a Rotax 912is. Amazing plane...I love it!!
That's a great two seater airplane. It's looks very nice. Thanks for letting me know. God bless.
Is that a GMC 507 control head? Did you ever use the screen, curious about the differences and foregoing the control head? Also, I didn't see it in your vid, but can you pull up airspace via the chart page function? Not sure how to do that yet?
Yes it is the 507. I think you can do everything you want on the G3X so in theory I wouldn't be surprised that Garmin would make a remote mounted AP...but honestly...having the discreet buttons is very handy.
I am curious why the G3X designers didn’t implement synthetic vision display while taxing around the airport. On high end Jets that I used to fly, it does just that. It shows taxi way signs and the taxiway itself on your PFD while taxing to the runway. On G3X it looks like you only get green ground and blue sky until you are turning on the runway itself. It’s a minor detail but it seems like an easy solution to include that to enhance SA even more.
Why? What high end jet? What avionics? You might be comparing $100,000 avionics with $5000 avionics. On the ground a map showing taxiways and runway map, airport diagram with georeference is not synthetic vision. *The Garmin G3X does have georeferenced FliteCharts and SafeTaxi airport diagrams.* Synthetic vision shows terrain and FLIGHT PATH typically in a 3D format. You don't need terrain or flight path on ground. *An airport diagram with georeference is fine. Hey here is an idea LOOK OUT THE WINDSCREEN and read the signs... Ha ha.*
@@gmcjetpilot My comment apparently completely flew over your head. Obviously you have never been close to any Jets let alone on any high end Jets like G450, Falcon 7X etc. Don’t comment on things you know nothing about. I am not referring to geo referenced AC on a moving map you dumbass. I am talking about Synthetic vision on PFD. I am well aware that G3X is a very capable avionics.
Can you please make a video of ILS/LOC, RNAV and VOR approach with your G3X? Thank you!
I don't have a GPS Navigator with my plane so I can't do that for you. However there is a KZheadr that has done this already: kzhead.info/tools/mbjvEJNp0X9A8QeegeF-Rg.html
Where did you get the panel mount turn coordinator? I would love to find one of those
No idea....came with the plane. I'm sure any airplane supply company will have them.
Quick question guys, where can i get the demo as a software to practice in my computer , _?
So are we not going to discuss the ELT going off around 23:00?!? Was it right after the hour?
Yup...it was at 9:07am...just a test.
@@FlyWithShawn to test an ELT you have to do it only from the top of the hour to 5 minutes passed the hour.
In the top of the screen, where it gives you waypoint information like ETE, distance, etc... what happens if you click it? Does it have a page with more waypoint info?
I don't recall doing that, but if it does anything it would take you to the FlightPlan page allow you to configure which fields you'd like to show. There are about a dozen fields you can show (but only room for a couple on the screen).
Not sure why the HSI is still in the picture. It's pretty much useless with active map coarse line (magenta line). In my last 20 years of commercial flying I never had an HSI displayed. They're pretty much obsolete unless it's all you have for coarse guidance with steam gauges.
How does the transponder work, does the g3x have one built in or is it remote control to another unit
The transponder is a remote mounted Garmin GTX45R that allows ADSB In and Out and is fully controlled from the G3X
Is it possible to charge SID's/STAR's/arrivals???
Unfortunately I do not have a Garmin Navigator connected to my system, so that's not something I can answer for you. Generally you would do all of your instrument approach setup in a Navigator and the G3X would be able to accept / display it. You can setup a very complex flight plan in the G3X using any airport, GPS waypoint (defined or user generated), VOR or any other navigation item on a VFR / IFR map. I used the custom feature to fly a logo pattern once.
Did you report the ELT going off on guard? Probably a false alarm, but you never know.
I don't recall that in the video, but ATC monitors that channel already. Plus I believe depending on the time of the time, it could be someone who is testing it. You are allowed to test ELT in the first 5 minutes of any hour.
at 22:30 why did it take so long for the plane to start its turn to MHR? You clicked activate twice and it still didnt do it. Then finally randomly it started turning at 23:19....why the delay?
Do you actually use GPS from G3X Or you have another GPS installed?
My understanding is there is not an internal GPS in the G3X. It uses an external WAAS GPS antenna.
Man… I have a single GDU450 (7.5in touch). I wish I had the 460 or dual 470s 😢
23:00 listening to gaurd freq is brutal
Everyone complains about that but testing of your emergency beacon is allowed in the first 5 minutes of the hour...which that was basically when it happened. Basically.
Thank you for the video. On the timing 11:20 your heading 275 and the wind aloft is indicating 3kt at 250, then 40 seconds later, at 12:00 you have turned left for a heading of 183 and the wind aloft is showing 7kt at 100. We have a new G#X in a C177RG and have found the same kind of error. Does someone know whats happening?
Hmm Interesting observation. So my understanding (an educated guess) is that the wind component is derived from other onboard info, specifically the compass, GPS and airspeed. By taking a look at the difference from heading and course, air speed vs. ground speed it should calculate these values. You will notice that the wind is only a couple of knots...given my TAS the relative wind is about 2% of my airspeed...so I will imagine that the direction and speed calculations are going to be relatively close but not perfect. If the wind is really blowing it should be pretty accurate. I would give it time to settle in on your heading to calculate the right amount. I can also tell by the slip indicator that it's pretty accurate post the 12:00 mark. Other thing to consider, I'm pretty high in the middle of the Delta...winds can be variable especially when light. My suggestion...fly it and enjoy it.
Not an expert on the 3GX, having flown the Dynon Skyview in my old plane. Here because my new aircraft build is going to be G3X. However, being a similar function... As you stated, the winds are derived from GPS data and your ADHRS system. Typically, any wild errors are a result of the compass needing to be calibrated. Compass calibration is fairly simple on the Dynon, doing a few 360's in the air... Worth looking into on the G3X, as well.
@@MercFE8235 Thanks for the useful info!
G3x
I commend you for monitoring guard, but I encourage you to not disregard hearing an ELT. Report it to ATC. Don't let the bystander effect be the reason an aviator is left stranded.
