I bought a F1 Rocket that is an absolute blast to fly! It’s a basic VFR setup with a new Garmin Aera 760. The pertinent system is as follows: D10A, EMS10, Garmin 760 & AP74. The question I have is this:
Can I feed GPS nav info to the AP or do I need an HS34 or other piece of equipment? Currently, I can only operate my AP on HDG. The NAV and TRK buttons won’t even light up as a nav source. I’ve been through the manual and read all I can about the AP setup and all I can figure is I need an HS34 to interface between the GPS source and my AP.
Can anyone shed some light on this? At some point I’m going to upgrade the avionics to either a G3x or HDX system but in the interim, I’d love to be able to create a flight plan and have my AP fly it.
