GTX345R Bluetooth Connection

Post by bdbogle »

Has anyone run into a GTX345R Bluetooth connection issue in a DA42? I can see and connect to the GTX345R when in the backseat, but move the Ipad to the cockpit and it looses the connection. Therefor, can't see traffic and the like on my iPad on Foreflight. Tried with multiple iPad/iPhones and the same results.

There's obviously something blocking or interfering the Bluetooth signal as that should easily go 20-30ft under normal circumstances.

Check out viewtopic.php?p=74186#p74186. Many of us have done this "mod" to improve the Bluetooth connection. Works great.

Got it! Just didn't dig far enough into the forums. Got the parts on order!
