I might be mistaken but is the above fix for just the RXP530? Just purchased this aircraft and I have the same problem with the hand not bringing up the Original CAR530 as a popup window. I do not see a rxpgns.ini file and see that rxp is in the file name, this is why I am asking.Might as well also bring up the fact that when I press Shift+1 to bring up the GPS window, it does show up but the bottom half of the screen turns black. Is this just happening to me or does this happen to everyone? I can drag the screen back into full position but it happens again the next time I bring up the GPS.Appreciate any help with this.

bliksimpie,I did catch that and have already made the fix, worked great, thanks. I have also added two of Bert's xml fixes for the A/P, a big thanks for them also. I have been in the process of learning how to make missions and am a little familiar with changing things in the aircraft and panel CFG files. There is alot to learn and the information is spread out among many, many forum posts. Sometimes it can be tough to find the exact information required due to the same keywords being used over a broad spectrum of questions. So thanks for your patience.I still do have the same problem as Paul as far as the hand cursor not bringing up the GPS window, except I am using the original CAR530. Any information along these lines will be greedily accepted.Paul, If you feel that I am hijacking your thread, just let me know and I will open up a new topic. I just thought it followed the same subject line and will benefit all that do a search about this.Take care,Brett

The ini file gets generated when you run the RXP config applet.It should be either in the panel folder or the aircraft folder.You can add it by hand:rxpgns.ini A text file, containing:[GNS530]Popup=794AutoPilotMode=2Radios=1LinkCdiKey=OnAutoApproach=OffLinkToVor=OnLcdStyle=OffAutoWidth=500AutoHeight=360Trainer=NoKeyClick=OffGndSpdFromDeltaLatLon=Off[GTX327]VFRCode=1200[sETTINGS]Dimmer=OnSimpleMouse=Off
