Theres a bug in the GEA 24 software, so they pulled the update off the website. Should be fixed in a few days.

Looks like the current version is now 4.90. The link on the original post works now.

I also updated a couple weeks ago, and was surprised to find my autopilot seemed to lose its gain settings. Either that or the updated servo software requires more gain than previous settings.
In any event I had to increase the AP gain for both roll and pitch after the update. No big deal as they are easy enough to reset, but I have noted the settings this time and will check whenever another update is applied. |
Does anybody know if finally the g3x software allows for vertical navigation (vnav) were the pilot sets the descent angle (e.g. 3 degrees) rather than the target fpm (as is in the g1000 and many other certified and non-certified efis)? This has been requested in other 2 vaf threads and g3xpert wrote he would look into it, but never came back afaik. At the moment, the way vnav in the g3x works is that the system fix the angle based on the speed of the plane around one minute before the top of descent, with no control and no visibility for the pilot of what this angle is (so no idea if the descent profile will clear terrain or obtacles, for example). In particular there is no way that the pilot can reproduce exactly the same descent angle to a waypoint on 2 different flights, despite setting the same fpm target on both flights
