The basics of it are mostly easy, the principle is of course the same.

Two pieces of advice I would have is do a nav with an instructor who can sit there in control of the plane (doing lookout especially) while you sit and play with function, I have found the best way to learn the ins and outs is to do it yourself.

Also for some reason early on when using the tape altitude I was finding small altitude deviations more acceptable, I don't no why but in my mind 20 - 50 ft looks more wrong on the analogue gauge. Not sure if that's a problem unique to me though
