Setting the VOR 's

Postby bigassham » Fri Feb 18, 2005 2:01 pm

Ok, stupid newbie question here:

How do I tune the VOR's?  I can't find anything that will let me set the frequency in flight.  Using FS 2002, Cessna 172.  Also, the panel has two VOR's. Can I use both?

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

Hey, thanks for the info.  I think I know what the problem is now.  Is there supposed to be a radio stack on the panel? If so, then I guess my screen is scrolled to far to the left because I don't see the radio stack ( which was confusing me because the VOR dials are in full view).  Is that the problem?

Gottcha....

Bottom center of the panel are 6 small icons. These are toggles for turning on/off other parts of the panel.

The one that looks like a radio tower toggles the radio stack.

You can try the others to see what they do.

Cheers,
Dave

Or maybe have a look in the 'Library/Help'.
