    The VNAV in this device doesn't actually make the AP fly through your altitudes, like it does with the coupled VNAV on the G1000. There is no altitude constraint support in the flight plan functions of this device. The VNAV button just takes you to a live updating descent calculator and you must fly the descent manually (or by manually adjusting VS if you have it). So you chose the target waypoint, the altitude you want to be at that waypoint (or a set distance before it), the rate of descent you want to have, and then it gives you a TOD countdown timer. Then as you descend it gives you real time guidance for how you have to adjust your feet-per-minute in order to reach your target altitude exactly at the point you chose. It's all just calculated guidance that doesn't integrate into the AP directly.

    • @jonbeckett

      Good point - to be honest I was skipping lots of functionality by the point I recorded - I had all sorts of problems getting this recorded (mostly interruptions). What you saw was about the sixth take, at nearly midnight...

    If you're flying a flight plan with quite a few waypoints.
    How can you display how much time until you reach your final destination. Not just the ETA to the next waypoint, but I want to know when my plane will get to the final airport to land, will it be an additional 30 minutes, if I have a good tailwind will I get there sooner does it display this time

    Ok, found your video on the light aircraft GPS. Issue - air craft engine running, GPS goes through its start up routine, inputting the flight plan. Then all of a sudden after 2-3mins the whole GPS shuts down/black screen. Aircraft engine still running, avionics selected on etc. Is there an off button the the GPS as well as the avionics master switch? I don't see one.
    Is it a bug?
