    Frequently Asked Questions

    Should I buy one module first or go straight to the full suite?


    Many users successfully start with a single PFD module and add the MFD later. This approach spreads the cost and lets you test compatibility with your setup first. However, the G1000 experience is significantly enhanced with both displays working together. One user mentioned buying a second unit later and loving the complete PFD/MFD setup. Consider your budget and how often you fly complex G1000 aircraft when deciding.

    What mounting hardware do I need to buy separately?


    The module requires either a desktop stand or panel mounting - it will not stand up on its own. You'll also need an HDMI cable. The desktop stand is compatible with Saitek/Logitech and Honeycomb yoke mounting systems. Some users report mounting challenges with third-party panels, noting that provided screws can be slightly too long and cause bulging. Consider the mounting solution before purchasing as it adds to the total cost.

    Can I configure this as either PFD or MFD?


    Yes, the hardware is identical and can be configured as either PFD or MFD through the RealSimGear software. This flexibility means you can buy modules individually and assign roles later. The software automatically detects your hardware and allows you to specify which display serves as PFD or MFD in your setup.

    How does the single module experience compare to using software-only G1000?


    The tactile feedback and dedicated display create a significantly more immersive experience than mouse-clicking on screen. Users consistently praise the authentic feel of the backlit silicone buttons and solid knobs. The dedicated HDMI display eliminates the need to manage pop-out windows, providing a cleaner simulation environment. However, you'll still need to use software displays for the missing PFD or MFD functionality.

    Is the build quality worth the premium over budget alternatives?


    Yes, users consistently highlight the high-quality construction with crisp IPS display, responsive buttons, and solid tactile feedback. The integration with X-Plane and MSFS is seamless with plug-and-play drivers. While premium compared to software solutions, it offers authentic training value for G1000 procedures. The main limitations are Windows-only support and requiring additional mounting hardware, which should be factored into your total investment.
