C182 Skylane P3Dv4 GPS problem

Post by Airbus_Fan »

Hello
Have just installed my C182 Skylane in P3D v4.
What worked great, but one does not work GPS module, and I do not find the error.
I do not see the GPS module in the panel.
In the configurator everything was set to default !!
Also IN the CFG is GPS Default.
But it is not displayed.
Could you please help me .

follow these steps to add GPS to a A2A aircraft for P3D v4

* Go to your My Documents folder
* Go to your Prepar3D v4 Add-ons folder
* Go to your A2A folder
* Go to your 2nd A2A folder
* Go to your Cessna182 folder or any other aircraft you own from A2A
* Go to your Tools folder
* click on C182 Aircraft Configurator to start up GPS panel config
* Click on desired GPS then click OK
* Done

Default, Flight1 Tech, Mindstar, or Reality XP will be listed - you must have the 3rd software to install except for default GPS. You can switch GPS while P3D v4 is running.

Hope that helps!

Just to clear up Richards post as no one needs to fiddle through folders, but to add a third party GPS;

go to you windows start button > A2A Simulations and click aircraft config tool, add the GPS you want and done.

If using the default GPS use just the shift + 3 panel in game to switch between different cockpit layouts.

The manual for your simulation software is under your windows start button > A2A Simulations

thanks,

Hello,

Which sim version are you using?

And what happens under your shift + 3 panel with the GPS options.

,...no plans for the P-39 but we are enroute to Oshkosh (typing on phone from back seat) atm and looking forward to seeing the P-39 and P-63 there.

Thanks,
Lewis
