Perhaps it is, but when I asked Brad at Emag about this capability he seemed willing to give information to Garmin (or other EFIS builders) to have a go at some sort of interface. Emag's EICAD software and the EI Commander guys seem to be able to grab info from the PMag and EMag, is there something that would stop Garmin from doing the same?

Nothing stopping them at all. If I can do it anyone can. I was able to do it by getting a copy of the basic protocol from the developer at EmagAir. The protocol is not fully defined and much of how it works is in his head or it appears that way from my side of things. Much of what I learned about the protocol was done by snooping the serial stream in and out of the PMag while interacting with it via EICAD. There are some quirks to the protocol and limitations based on the low resolution and processing power of the hardware used in the PMag. EICAD also is full of bugs and quirkiness. I cannot speak for the EI Commander since I have never used one.

The bottom line is that the serial protocol built into the PMag does not appear to be fully baked and does not seem like it was intended to be used by the masses. I doubt Garmin would accept the quirks. There is also a liability concern on their part to think about. Just being connected to the thing will increase their risk.

Well, here's hoping Garmin gives it a try!

Ability to display Australian WAC, VNC, VTC (Aus equivalent to Sectional) on G3X.

Oz charts
 

+1

Surely there's enough business down here to justify the effort....

Avplan and Ozrunways both already provide raster charts for Australia wide VFR coverage (and they work fine in a Dynon). I would think the coding required to display them in the Garmin system wouldn't be a particularly arduous job.

User profiles?
 

Did a quick search but didn't find this.

Any thoughts to adding a user profile capability (similar to that in the G1000)? It's a nice feature when different pilots fly the plane. I expect multiple pilots flying the same plane is somewhat more rare in the experimental world, but I can see a use for it.

Also +1 on the Pmag interface.

Aussies treated as poor cousins
 

I wish to support the Australians who have written so far. Its disappointing that Dynon can support Australian WAC, VEC, VTC, VNC charts but Garmin cannot. I had Dynon last aircraft and it was brilliant, chose all Garmin this time to harmonise with the GTN 650 (GPS), now I have to fly with an Ipad using Ozrunways or Avplan to ensure I do not penetrate CTA because Garmin and Jeppersen here in Australia is second rate. Please Mr Garmin if you are reading this - fix it.

Re-sizing dedicated engine information window
 

I did the first flights post G3X Touch install last week, very nice system!

My main item for the wish list is to be able to be able to show more engine instruments on the dedicated side bar. Unless I'm missing something, once the mandatory instruments are displayed, there is no room for more. I'd give up the "analog" MAP and RPM gauges to get more space, but I didn't see an option for that.

What about a remote GTN 625 that operates off the G3X touch.
