- 1 (>H:AS530_CDI_Push, Number)
- 1 (>H:AS430_CDI_Push, Number)
- There is a GNS530 and a GNS430 available in the C310R. With this mod the units can be in unmatched CDI states - one in VLOC and one in GPS.
- The HSI and NAV2 CDI behavior code has been improved to use latest simvars and to provide correct indicator flags.
- The TO/FROM flag for HSI and CDI are correctly calculated in GPS operation.
- When legacy Radio is used, the state of the hidden GPS units is ignored when calculating HSI/OBS indicators.
- The latest config file fix for autopilot startup PID reset is enabled. This can provide smoother autopilot startup. It is suggested that pilot trim the aircraft before engaging the AP for smoothest transition.
