May 27, 201016 yr Pardon my ignorance, but where do I put this code? In the Gauges folder, in the aircraft?
May 28, 201016 yr Sometimes ignorance is not golden is it? I sure identify with your question.Before you do anything, save your root Carenado Bonanza F33 aircraft folder to your desktop. If anything smells bad, you can always recover it.Based on a previous post that let the RMI work at least partially correctly, here is what I did (subject to improvement by anyone).Note that post is best I remember by Bert who has a reply in this post. 1. In the gauge folder, create a new folder named: "BonF33" (Previous post by Bert as indicated above}2. Unzip the "BonF33.CAB" into the folder you created.3. Renane the "EGT.xml" file to be "EGT.doc" and save it (assuming you have word, if not use the extention of whatever text program you have, i.e. notepad)4. Open the document.5. Copy the recommended text in question and paste/overwrite the text in the "EGT.doc" file. 6. Rename "EGT.doc" back to EGT.XML and save the file.If it does not work or does not meet your approval, simply delete the "BonF33" folder you created.Hope this helps!RTH Pardon my ignorance, but where do I put this code?

Edit and save. Bert
