=== A Canvas based GNS 530 GPS === | |||
{{FGCquote | |||
|After a long hiatus (3 years!) I felt like doing some flightgear aircraft modeling again. 3 Years ago when I started the panel for my Bo, I couldn't find a nice, modern, panel mount IFR GPS. The King GPS we have is ancient, and the Garmin 196, while nicely modelled, Is a VFR handheld. So I decided to start with this:<br/> | |||

I know the GNS530 is already kind of outdated as well, but together with its smaller sibling, the GNS430 it's still much more widespread than its successor (GTN650/750). Also the GTN650/750 use touch screen interfaces, which I'm not really a fan of.<br/> | |||
<br/> | |||
Right now this is very much work in progress. It's also the first time I wrote more than 5 lines of nasal, so I was basically learning the language while I wrote this. Still, I think it's far enough to present it here and let people try it and send critique and suggestions. Learn more at [[Garmin GNS530]]... | |||
