MV DHC-2 Beaver GPS popup

Featured Replies

Although the tool tip has labeled the default MilViz GNS530/430 as a pop-up, I can't get it to work. There doesn't seem to be a view that features it either. I love the bird and she flies sweet but I'd love to have the pop-up. Oddly enough, the Turbo Otter pops up the whole radio panel.

Is there any setting to select in the desktop configurator?

From memory so could be totally wrong.

Not that I could see. I did select Milviz 530/430 in the GPS config page.

Can you shed any light on this anomaly? Your popups in the MV Beech Baron work great. Is there some I hack I can do to make this functional? I've tried the few tricks I know and nothing seems to work for me.

I'm running P3D 4.5

OK I was able to figure it out myself.

Here's what worked for me:

//--------------------------------------------------------
[Window??]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=320,285
window_size_ratio=1.000  
position=2
visible=0
ident=GPS_PANEL
type=SPECIAL
//window_size= 0.710, 0.552
//window_pos= 0.290, 0.480

I take it that was the panel.cfg without the WX ?

e.g. the one located in ~\DHC-2 Beaver Milviz\panel.mv530_430

I can see that particular config is missing Window01=GPS

[Window Titles]
Window00=Main Panel
Window02=Autopilot

Where as ~\DHC-2 Beaver Milviz\panel.mv530_430_wx does have Window01=GPS included.

[Window Titles]
Window00=Main Panel
Window01=GPS
Window02=Autopilot
Window03=WX Radar

Being on P3D v4.5 means I am using the wx versions of the panel.cfgs and also having GTN750's means that's what I'm using too.

But I do remember on initial start having set 530 & 430 & wx that the GPS's did popup just fine.
