F406 Caravan II FSX | P3D

Carenado has released a first update for the F406:

Hi I have just brought this plane and i find it very good. I would like to use EFD1000 with few buttons and turn buttons from my MS Panel (VRinsight) or Joystick controler but i don't know what to do. I'm using FSUIPC and i don't find the correct commands. Can you help me? Thanking you in advance

If you are using this aircraft in FSX, you can replace the lower GNS530 by an RXP model. Just set Radios=2 and LinkVOR=2 in the rxpgns.ini file. To operate the knobs, you will want a popup window for the GNS. //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window02] Background_color=8,8,8 size_mm=524,378 visible=0 ident=15532 window_size= 0.310, 0.380 position=2 no_luminous=1 zorder=7 gauge00=RXPGNS!GNS530, 0,0,520,378 ....

I cannot find out how to integration the F1 GNS750 into the panel. Could some kind person please help? Thank you.

Just added this bird to my P3Dv3 hanger and enjoying it very much. I do notice though a lot of shimmering knobs and gauges in the VC. Is there a specific display setting in P3Dv3 that can be adjusted to help mitigate this shimmering effect?

I know am going to kick myself but... Can you tell me were the....Inverter switch is, I will be dammed if I can find it

This guy must be sourcing some aerial imagery, check out the flight path, I wonder how they plotted that one out in the GTN? :smile: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N27NW/history/20151026/1406Z/KBDL/KDXR Why are they calling this a Cessna F406 Vigilant? I've never seen it called that before. I think I have the right airplane, you can click on the photos link and look at the pics, this one for example says Caravan II right on the fuselage. Well anyway, just thought that was interesting. Hope you're all enjoying your F406 flights, I definitely am!

G'day Bought and installed it today in FSX, no install problems. Flew a first flight in vanilla condition with Carenado gns 530's on board. Flew from YSSY Kingsford-Smith to YBTH Bathurst fine weather with ORBX scenery low traffic. No noticeable FPS hit, same as Alabeo C401. It uses the Aspen EFD1000 EFD same as the Bonanza 36 (except the Bonanza includes documentation for the instrument) use the Bonanza Docs Aspen worked as expected so far. Carenado weather radar too. AP worked when manually set and accepted the route in Nav mode from the CAR530 also worked with altitude (have not tried ILS intercept yet. Hand flew the finals, no FPS hit. …
