Garmin G3X EFIS in a Piper PA28-181

Garmin G3X EFIS display with a Garmin G5 EFIS display configured as a backup for the G3X. GMA345 audio panel, GTN650Xi COM/NAV/GPS, GTX335 ADS-B out transponder and GFC500 pitch/roll autopilot.

The GNC255A COM/NAV2, King ADF/DME was already in the panel. The GTN650Xi, GNC255A and GTX335 may be remote controlled directly via the G3X touch screen (both active and standby frequencies and database lookup is visible on the G3X). The G3X also displays which COM1/2 has been selected on the audio panel. The G3X includes synthetic vision and either a full or split screen function with the map on the right hand side of the PFD.

The G3X has Garmin Connext functionality (Bluetooth) so that the Pilot may use the Garmin Pilot application to upload flight plans to the G3X and GTN650Xi. (The G3X Connext does not support wireless database updates ).

The existing King DME was connected to the GNC255A COM/NAV2 for remote channeling and is also able to display DME data in its display. A Garmin GSB15 USB charger for portable devices was installed on the pilots panel.
