Yes, there is no elevator trim indicator.

Since this is a bug in the G1000, please check for other reported bugs in the Garmin of the c400, when fixing this one.

One is visible on the 2nd picture of post above.
Instead of Aircraft symbol with correct heading, it shows only a gray dot on the G1000 map. Also it does not show the alt change arc when enabled.

And i think the eng/prop rpm gauges are not working correctly on the ENG page.
They are ok on the home/map screen, but not on ENG screen.
(on home screen when both in green, on eng page both flashing red/exceeding limits)
