Marauder Posted December 15, 2016 Report Posted December 15, 2016 Hi All, In case you didn't catch this news. The RTX-345 will now talk with the Aspen products for traffic and weather. Looks like $795 unlocked code required (even for the MFD). http://aspenavionics.com/news/aspen-avionics-evolution-displays-integration-with-garmins-gtx-345-ads-b/ 2
mooneyman Posted December 17, 2016 Report Posted December 17, 2016 I recently had GTX 345 and FlightStream 510 installed. It would be great to get weather and traffic on my Aspen PFD/MFD. Here is the quote from my avionics shop: The unlock card from Aspen is $795.00 each. You would need one for both the PFD & MFD. A couple of hours to update software and programming. I could do this sometime in the Middle of January. Pobably around $1800 total out the door. I'm glad Garmin and Aspen are working together but wish they would have made a cheaper path for this integration to happen. 1
kevinw Posted December 18, 2016 Report Posted December 18, 2016 I read that recently as well. My 201 goes in next month for its biennial IFR and I'm getting the unlock done at that time.

Do you have the Aspen 2000? I know the MFD is unlocked for most things (like my WX-500) but I suspect it isn't for the Garmin solution. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
kevinw Posted December 18, 2016 Report Posted December 18, 2016 No I don't, just the 1000 but this has me thinking about adding the MFD.
