How to fly with NAV 2 in Cessna N172SP

Question

Hi all,

New to to flight simulation. (New but intensively into :))

I am doing some basic practices of VOR navigation with the Cessna N172SP in X-Plane 11 and I just can't figure out how to tell the autopilot to follow the NAV 2 instead of the NAV 1 instructions.

Thanks,

Víctor

The autopilot seems to be tied to the Garmin 530.  There is probably a way to change it to the Garmin 430 using Planemaker, but I have no idea how you would go about it.You might try doing a Google search for X-plane help groups planemaker.  Good luck!

My interest is not so much on forcing the plane to use the 430, but on the ability to switch between the two in flight. I apologize in advance for my ignorant daringness but... what good is having a secondary/backup GPS/Navigation Unit if you can't use it...
