Garmin GNS to GTN Upgrade The Ultimate Solution for Your Aircraft's Navigation

We can provide Garmin GNS Upgrade to GTN Serious service.

Upgrading from a Garmin GNS series (e.g., GNS 430W/530W) to a GTN series (e.g., GTN 650/750) is a significant avionics upgrade that enhances navigation, situational awareness, and system integration.

 Benefits of Upgrading to GTN Series

1.Touchscreen Interface: More intuitive and faster operation.

2.Enhanced Navigation: Supports GPS, VOR, ILS, and WAAS (GTN Xi series includes GA SBAS for better precision).

3.Advanced Features:

• Visual Approaches (e.g., LPV, LNAV/VNAV)
• Flight Stream 510 (wireless connectivity for flight plans)
• Traffic & Weather (with compatible ADS-B receivers)

4.Bluetooth & Database Concierge (easy database updates)

5.Better Integration: Works seamlessly with Garmin autopilots (GFC 500/600), G500/G600 TXi displays, and third-party avionics.

GTN Models Available

• GTN 650 (6.5" screen, compact, ideal for smaller panels)
• GTN 750 (7" screen, larger map display, more features)
• GTN 650Xi/750Xi (latest generation, improved processing, additional features like GA SBAS)

Installation Considerations

1.Physical Fit: GTN units are similar in size to GNS units but may require minor panel adjustments.

2.Wiring & Compatibility:

• Some rewiring may be needed, especially for audio, autopilot, and transponder interfaces.
• Verify compatibility with existing avionics (e.g., GMA 350c audio panel, GTX 345 transponder).

If you want modern touchscreen navigation, better connectivity, and future-proofing, the GTN 750Xi or 650Xi is an excellent choice. For budget-conscious owners, the GTN 650 or GPS 175 may suffice.
