RealityXP GNS 430w/530w in A2A aircraft

[jclay13]

Does anyone know if the rotary knobs and push buttons on the RealityXP GNS 430w/530w are animated in the Virtual Cockpit for A2A aircraft such as the 172/182?

Everything functions and the knobs rotate and buttons depress in the 2D pop up window for the GPS but in the Virtual Cockpit, they don’t move.

Full animation of pressing bezel buttons on the RXP GNS gauges is only supported in our newer releases, namely the Cessna 172 for P3Dv4/5 and the Bonanza. For the older products, only the rotation of the knobs is animated.

Thanks,
Nick

Thank you for your reply Nick.

Since the A2A Aircraft Configurator for the 172 and 182 have an option to install the RXP GNS 530, I thought it would be fully supported in FSX Steam including animation of knobs and buttons. Was the animation supported for v1 of the RXP GNS units? These are a recent purchase so I have v2.

I installed the RXP GNS 530 into the Bonanza and the knobs spinning and buttons pressing is animated. I also installed the Flight1 GTN 750 into the 172 and 182 and those knobs and buttons are animated.
