P-51 Civilian: Weather radar to use with Active Sky Next

Post by Cool »

Hello
As the P51 does not like the bad weather I thought it would be nice to have a Weather radar... :wink:

Here is a Weather radar gauge to use with HiFi Active Sky Next weather engine. The gauge is installed inside the Virtual Cockpit, replacing the GPS device (GPS 2D popup still working)

All thanks to the autor of the gauge : Roland Herblot
Original post for download link can be found in post 173 page 12 here: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/459050-ano ... ge/page-12

Please read carefully the pdf for installation.

Then here are the panel modification to be done in the panel.cfg (do not forget to save the original one)

//gauge15= civ!gps_500, 1, 384,318,195
gauge15=RolasnRadar!oRadGauge, 0,385,250,140, starton|sweep|beam|icing

Here is what you get (Battery, Avionic and GPS have to be switched ON)

Very cool but I think I'd rather have a gps unit. I'm hoping hifi will work with active sky next to add weather to the gtn750 /650. Then a2a adds the gtn650 to the civ mustang and possibly the t6.
