msalama Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 this news of the Garmin GNS 430 is awesome. Wait, what? Are we getting a Garmin module? When and where was this announced? The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.

Udat Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 I wonder how updated the databases and software will be for the Garmin! I use it almost daily in RL, so this will be exciting to try out in DCS. It is quite small, so I wonder how fiddly it will be to use inside the sims cockpits.

Petchyboy Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 G430 is a handy unit for civilian ops but I wonder what purpose it has within DCS? Does any of the current or planned modules have a 430 installed as part of their actual avionics? Seems a strange addition for a combat simulator... Regarding database as long as it matches the current Nevada navaids/frequencies in DCS there will be no need to update it. I5 2500k@4.4ghz, GTX980 OC, 16gb Gskill 12800 DDR3 ram, ssd.

Elwood Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 It might be related to the fact that 2.5 will support multimap. So maybe more people will invest in map production for civil flight, yes pleaseeee! I'll love to IFR/VFR around any of DCS aircraft. AFAIK a private Mig21 with G430 might be appear strange landing in SFO.

msalama Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Haven't had the time to F5 lately, plus really did read the newsletter too fast so missed this particular tidbit. But where does it say it's free? To develop a facsimile of a complicated GPS nav device costs money, plus Garmin may want some £$€ too. Just speculating though... The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.
AG-51_Razor Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 I hope ED supports the 430 better than Garmin does!! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

cichlidfan Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Btw, I am not saying that ED isn't, or shouldn't, charge for this. There is obviously work involved. I am just pointing out that Garmin has worked with other relatively small software houses without, apparently, making it noticeable more expensive.

hannibal Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 maybe ED is accomodating new players. i have to admit, it took me 2 tries at DCS before i started to feel like i can fly the aircraft. meeting ppl on hyperlobby helped me alot.. a noobie can easily get lost, i think GPS is a common thing now a days.. will help out the new DCS new comers! find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179

codefox Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 i think GPS is a common thing now a days.. will help out the new DCS new comers! You need to keep in mind that's not a GPS like you know it from your car. Very probably the new players will have to learn stuff for that. If you can't get around to learn radio navigation, you probably won't get around to learn the GPS. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
rrohde Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 waiting for the news letter. i hope it won't be only "bundle" based news :D Agreed! Please no bundles or campaigns.
