If you have the full RXP version of the Wx500 do not run the "Reality XP Wx500 Config 2005" for the A36 (and if you have not updated i would advise against running the "EZ Config for Flight Line WX500", although i have not tried this, i would guess it could cause similar problems), i tried it to change some of the parameters and it messed up the default install causing things not to work properly, running the utility to put things back removed even more actions, even the backup file had sections missing, in the end the only way was to reinstall the plane. I have the "other" GNS430, so I am not sure about any utilities relating to this instrument, but i would also leave well alone :D

Oh yea the plane is grest guys, cheers, pretty good 13 quids worth IMHO

As you can imagine there were some people testing both A36 and wx500 standalone. Personally didn't noticed any problem. In fact the GNS and wx500 config acts on the local config files.Please make sure you write an E-Mail to RealityXP support or visit the support foruns.

I've worked out what happened; when i ran the utility it replaced the A36 Wx500 and drop stack with the RXP versions, the radar is the same but the drop stack does not contain all the shortcuts that the DF version does, so when i ran the installer again I lost these. so my warning still stands, not a problem if you back up first though.
