Autopilot replacement

Recommended Posts

Hi,I have the carenado C206. Very nice aircraft.I was able to replace the clock which has no chronometer by the clock of the default C172, simply by modifying the clock line in the panel file. A piece of cake, even for me...Now I would like to replace the autopilot which no altitude hold mode by the bendix autopilot of the default C172 G 1000. I modified the autopilot line in the panel file, in the same fashion as with the clock but the bendix autopilot does not show. Is there a simple solution?Thanks.

FSX? Could you show the bit from the default panel config and the carenado. This shouldn't be a problem.

Good Day,

Hi,It is for FSXHere is an extract of the panel cfg file:[Vcockpit02]Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=512,512visible=0pixel_size=1024,1024texture=$Cessna206_2gauge00=Cessna206Radios!RadioAudio206, 0,0,256,49gauge01=Cessna206Radios!RadioCom1Nav1206, 0,61,256,81gauge02=Cessna206Radios!RadioCom2Nav2206, 0,143,256,110gauge03=Cessna206Radios!RadioAdf206, 0,254,256,64gauge04=Cessna206Radios!RadioTrans, 256,115,256,63gauge05=Cessna206Radios!RadioDME, 256,179,256,57gauge06=Cessna206Radios!RadioAP2, 256,0,256,113gauge07=Cessna2062!start, 384,238,128,127gauge08=Cessna2064!Garmin, 256,238,128,49gauge09=Cessna2062!EngineL, 0,374,448,67gauge10=Cessna2062!EngineR, 0,445,448,67gauge11=Cessna2067!lowvolt, 448,383,64,64I replaced the gauge 06 line by:gauge06=Bendix_King_Radio!Bendix-King Radio AP, 256,0,256,113which comes from the default c172 G1000 with the C206 coordinates and sizeI may have to modify the panel bmp file too but if it is the case, it is beyond my abilities

You can't create a VC in FSPS, but, you can edit an existing one. If the FSPS VC layout is similar to the 2D it is easier, but some VC definitions make FSPS VC windows look like a jigsaw puzzle because the modeler has specifically modeled surfaces on which he mounted the gauges...Don
