The ELITE® GNS 430W control module is laid out exactly
as the actual GNS 430W with the exception of the center
color LCD display. In order to keep costs low, ELITE®
displays the GNS 430W within the cockpit display of the
software. Full GNS 430W functionality remains intact.
In as much as the ELITE® V8.5 software suite is designed
primarily as an instrument trainer for both flight schools
and the home user, there are certain limitations within the
control module.The ELITE version of the GNS 430W does
NOT provide optional displays and programming such as
GDL49WeatherDatalink,GDL69/69AXMSatelliteDatalink
or XM Satellite radio, TAWS or GPWS terrain alerts.
