Are there any updates to the Virtual Fly G1000? I have one, but can’t use it with MSFS.
Alas, the most I know is this:

I did speak with them about this a few days ago, but from the sounds of it, they are either still waiting for something from Microsoft or are busy testing. I also have Flight Illusion telling me that SimConnect is just not stable enough right now.
Any ideas how to fix the G1000 not responding anymore? I had to restart the game after I couldn’t interact with the glass cockpit anymore. Another reason to add key bindings for that infernal knob. I could still operate everything else with keyboard and flight stick, just not enter a new destination.
When you say “not responding”, what’s happening to the G1000?
It’s the whole glass cockpit, no more interaction with the mouse. Anything I’ve assigned to keyboard and flight stick still works, and using the mouse to zoom still works (and operating the menus) yet I can’t press any buttons in the cockpit. It’s rare to happen, fixed with a restart.
open up the ATC window, and resize it. Mouse control in the cockpit should be back after that.

Good news, @AUJeffK. Virtual Fly posted this today:
Some of their buttons are now working, but not all. But you can download the beta here:
Yes!!! This was quicker than I expected. Thanks for passing on the news. I’ll give it a go
This weekend. Have you tried it yet?
Well, I downloaded the software and I’m showing a green “flight simulator 2020 connected” light on the G1000 control panel 3.21, but nothing happens in the sim / on the panel? I downloaded FSUIPC 7 and it’s running. Have you had any success @N316TS ?
Haven’t had a go yet. I’m feeling under the weather this weekend but if I feel better tomorrow, I’ll hook it up and let you know!
Sorry to hear it’s not looking good right now. Any thoughts on what might be wrong?

@N316TS I can use the NAV/COM knobs but the ALT, HDG, CRS/BARO knobs don’t work for me. There’s limited functionality on some of the autopilot buttons (AP, HDG, ALT and FD work. VS and FLC don’t work properly). Virtual fly says all of the above should work.
@AUJeffK @N316TS Hello, we are addressing these issues. Right now, we are working on a new release with everything work but it is taking longer that we would want so we released a beta version with as much as we could. Some buttons may work in some planes and may not in other planes.
Please contact me at pgarcia@virtual-fly.com and our support team will work with you.

@VFPGarcia thank you for the message. I will reach out to you. Looking forward to 100% integration with VF hardware!
@VFPGarcia I installed the latest update that says the VFG1000 has full functionality with MSFS2020, but I’m unable to use any buttons. With the previous test version, I was able to use a few buttons. Now I cannot get any to work with the new update. Anyone else have any luck? Thanks
