Couple of Aircraft Questions

[steve s]

First, has anyone developed a panel for the 737-800 that moved that horrid bank angle away from the heading selector....for God's sakes!!!!
I know it's that way in real life......but real pilots don't have to point and click on it!!!!


#2......I have the freeware "FSX C172 Red Tail Hawk" that I love the paint on.

When it comes to panels I use a program called FS panel studio it works with both FS9 & FSX. It is payware but worth every penny.It makes adding gauges or panels as simple as falling off a log.
here is the link http://www.fspanelstudio.com/

What could be easier than falling off a log???   Did you try the trail version first?  I suppose you cannot save guages, or maybe only a couple?    For $25 you can't go wrong I guess.  I gotta get rid of that max bank angle placement.   That drives me crazy!

No one can help with question two here?.......or #1.

Is this, Red Tail Hawk a true FSX model ?

I don't understand your question about the 737  .. can you be more specific, or post a screen shot ?

If it's a true FSX model, then you can copy the interior model (make it match the name in the model.cfg file) in to the the model folder.. and then copy the panel folder over.

VC panels are tricky to edit. If the modeler used  large, single polygon for the gauges, then you can change and move them around, just like a 2D panel.. If he used individual polygons for each gauges.. all you can do is change gauges, but not move them around.

I'll have to run the sim here in a sec and get back to you on the 737.. I don't fly jets often..

OK..
