MSFS - G1000 NXI differences, part 1

Welcome back to Alpha Hotel Flight Simulator Training.

This video will be part one of a two part series on the differences in the NXI upgrade for the G1000 panel. This video will focus on the non-navigational differences, and the second part will focus on the differences in the navigational system/GPS.

The NXI is an upgraded version of the G1000 panel by Working Title that works much more like the real life unit than the old unit that came with MSFS. Learning to use all of it's functions and features can greatly enhance you MSFS experience.

At the time of this video's release, the NXI was available to all users for free through the in-game marketplace - but it will become the default panel in all G1000 equipped aircraft with Sim update 10 (currently scheduled for a August 23rd 2022 release.)

I think I understand the NXI better now, Thank You!

Best overview of the G1000 NXI I've seen. Thanks.

This was an hour and 20 minutes well spent. Excellent content!

New to your Chanel and look forward to a full flight tutorial of the NXI post SU10 incorporating the new LNAV and VNAV approach features. This is a great video. Noticed you had KNEW in the PFD. Got my ticket in 1995 at 65LA prior to the G1000. I had a Garmin 91, if you remember that unit.

As usual, great presentation and great training! 👍

Great coverage. Thanks.

The Working Title team are doing a stellar job bringing increased functionality to what has been a very disappointing default G1000 at release in MSFS. I believe they are also working on the GNS430/530 too. I'm running the SU10 beta at the moment and the NXi updates coming in the SU10 release includes the much requested ability to enter a flight plan in the G1000 and have the MSFS ATC system recognise it.

Excellent video thanks. I'll be sending people your way in any content I put up about the NXi

[phcos]

Thanks. Once again this video as all your video, goes deep in detail, and is easy to understand, even for a French native.
I hope one day MSFS g1000 will have the Search and Rescue menu, so we can train for that. Do you know if Working tile will continue to develop the G1000. The only info I saw on their Website is, "don't ask for future function".

[dhill]

Very well done! Thank you for the thorough instructional demo.

I am having e problem with the "detail" button. My map does not have any detail (airspaces, airports, vor) just the map and the map only. When i press the "detail" button nothing happens. Do you know what it may be? The zoom levels are ok. Checked it out...

I have watched your G1000 intro videos part 1 and 2. You had commented, that for the autopilot, I should watch your NXI videos. Is this the video that will introduce me to the latest autopilot functionality with NXi?

[miket]

Thanks for the informative tutorial……
How current is the NXi in FS2020? Reason I ask is that I have seen in the OEM version the FLC button replaced with an IAS button…….which corresponds to the latest GFC700 AP controller. The IAS button has same function as FLC and in fact FLC comes up in the status bar. Has the FLC button now been replaced by IAS? It seems that all the sim G1000 hardware and software in X-plane and MSFS is still showing FLC……your thoughts?
Cheers from Aus

At 1:08:31 you show the AUX page but did not show how you got to that page and I can't seem to find it.

Hi. Great video BUT do you know if there is a way to DISABLE the NXi and revert to the old g1000? I ask because I'm working on my real-world instrument certificate and there is not a single actual C172 in the Seattle area with an NXi. So while it is pretty and all, it no longer let's students practice with the hardware actually installed in real planes. Thanks for your help!

Garmin should hire you to build the avionics training material🤓
