Precisely, I have just registered on this forum to find information before buying, because precisely I use the Kodiak 100 a lot, because I use On Air company to make all my flights!
I bought the GTN750 of PMS (very expensive..) 15 days ago (for a year) and I lose 24 fps when I put the Gtn750 in windowed mode!
Will I have the same problem with your product?
thank you
The Kodiak isn't meant to be used with a GTN. It's made to be used with a G1000. It's been explained in this thread that they don't play well together.
That said, the PMS GTN isn't the problem with your frame rate loss. That's a bug in the sim that's been there since launch. It's a very well known issue. Asobo claimed to have made some progress fixing it for SU8, but whatever fix they implemented seems to not work for anyone. So until Asobo fix it, you have to deal with the performance penalty from popping out windows. It's just the way the sim is atm. DX12 should actually fix it. And if you can run DX12 now without it affecting your performance (it works great for some, horribly for most), then you can pop out windows without losing performance.
That said, if you use the TDS GTNXi, you can run it in "normal" mode vs popping out a window. It runs as a separate, external application and doesn't require popping out windows from the sim. It doesn't take away any fps when used that way. It's simply running an external program that talks to your sim. Much like using Navigraph or Little NavMap or other external apps. It just talks to the sim via SimConnect.
I still wouldn't recommend using it in a G1000 plane though.
