Cessna 182 with GTN 750 glideslope (LNAV) question

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is an A2A question or Flight1 question... I just got the (FSX) 182 (love it!) and have the GTN 750 in it. when I load an ILS approach even at my home airport which has GS it's showing LNAV only and the bars never come down. I try GPS and VLOC modes both. I'm using the HSI and the default heading indicator and trying to just do a basic manual ILS. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I've tried to find some videos on youtube but it's mostly guys guessing for 20 minutes. Anyone have a good idea or tutorial? Thanks!!

Are you tuning the ILS frequency into the NAV1 radio and activating it?

Hi...

Are you sure you've loaded an ILS and not and GPS approach ? Some GPS approaches provide vertical guidance and others do not... The ones that do have nothing to do without the ILS equipment located on the runway...

A screenshot of the cockpit on final - with the GTN open - just before you intercept the glide-slope would probably get you the answer the fastest...

Scott

Hi guys,


I have the same issue, C182 with GTN750.

Everything is setup correctly, I found a way around this " bug " was to cycle to " No GPS " panel and manually turn on the NAV/COM 1 classic stack then re-select the GTN750 and it finally worked ok.

I think that if you load the airplane with the GTN750 it does not automatically turn on the " NAV/COM " 1 stack in the background.


Could anyone look into this ?


P.S. Real world C182/GNT750 pilot, the NAV's were setup correctly.


Regards

Hello,

yes if in your sim the stack is set to off then you will have to turn it on. Some of these settings will come from your default flight.

thanks,
Lewis

Hi Lewis,

I thought that the GTN750 would replace the old NAV1 stack and that turning "ON" the GTN750 would defacto turn " ON " the " Stack 1 " that officially doesn't exist anymore.

Is there a way to make the GTN750 turn ON the stack one automaticaly ? or should I use my " procedure " to go around it ?


Thanks


Regards

you can use the procedure you use or just turn the unit on in the default flight you are using.

I think I am having the same problem.

I have the same setup and regardless of if I am flying a GPS or ILS approach, I do not get a glide scope indication on the HSI.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks
