'206' in P3Dv5.3

[G7USL 117]

I had it running okay in P3Dv4 but does not work in '5.3'.  Is it not compatible or, is there an update, please?

Nothing working or just certain functions not working?

I was able to load the 206 up from a cold start, start it up and take-off ok in P3DV5.3HF1+light fix.   I installed the 206 when P3DV5 came out and have not had to reinstall since and it has worked in various P3DV5 versions ok.

Not trying to sound like a tech support guy (lol), but did you try the recommendations on the Carenado Website? Here is a link: https://carenado.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360046625614-Installing-Carenado-aircraft-in-P3Dv5

Also did you check to see where the 206 is installed? Mine is installed in the main Prepar3D folder SimObjects/Airplanes/Carenado CT206H_Stationair.

I found it had made a new P3D5 folder, all of it's own, so I copied and pasted it into the main folder but it has holes in the panel and is unflyable. Never mind.

Thank you John. I wish you a Happy New year, my friend.

Holes in the panels? Are these holes where gauges are suppose to be or are all the gauges there but you can see through the panel texture?  If the panel textures are missing, it could be the copy protection that Carenado uses.  If gauges are missing, then the gauges are not in the right folder.  In either case it's probably best to uninstall and reinstall making sure the installer points to your main P3D5 folder.
