January 14, 20242 yr I just bought the Carenado Cessna T207A Stationair from the MarketPlace in MSFS. It is a good looking and flying plane, but it only has one NAV Radio. (NAV 1) Most planes have two including all my other default Cessna and addon Cessnas. I thought this might be a mistake, so I contacted Carenado and they confirmed there is only one NAV Radio in this plane. I would love for someone who has the skills (I have none) to come up with a mod adding the second radio, NAV2, to the plane. I am guessing the aircraft and panel cfg files have to be modified and the view of the panel changed somewhat to accommodate a second CDI gauge. Would anyone who also owns this plane and has the knowledge to do so be willing to do this? Thanks

The problem is that Carenado's aircraft files are encrypted in the Marketplace, so even if someone could figure out what needs to be done, the required files are not accessible.. There are many little things I would love to touch up in Carenado's avionics, but there is no way.. Edited January 14, 20242 yr by Bert Pieke Bert
January 14, 20242 yr Author Bummer. Well, I will just have to use it as is. It does have ADF, but there are not many NDBs still in service. I am from the old school and prefer steam gauges over the glass cockpits, and don't use GPS if I can help it. Did all my flying in C-119 and C-97 aircraft, along with a Piper Tri Pacer way before GPS.
January 14, 20242 yr Yes, as Bert said, it is the most frustrating thing about Carenado aircraft only being for sale in the Marketplace. All the CFG files where things like you've suggested here are tweaked and edited, are invisible. I'm an avid autopilot tweaker but no good with Carenado (or any Marketplace purchases). I only buy their aircraft where I'm willing to accept that it will only be flyable as it comes 'out of the box'. Bummer indeed!
