Hi Folks,
For the Garmin G3X, the transponder configuration page provide a “GPS Antenna Offset” entered in feet to show the distance from the GPS antenna to the nose of the aircraft.
If you enter a number will this offset be to the left or right of the aircraft nose/centreline?
e.g. does
A +2 set a GPS antenna offset field apply a 2 feet to the starboard (right) wing
A -2 set a GPA antenna offset field apply a 2 feet to the port (left) wing
Can you even set +/- values for the offset?
The G3X installers manual shows the setting, however does not give any guidance on which direction the offset will be applied.
Keen to hear if anyone has some advice on this one.
Cheers,
Byron.
