DHC3 PANEL

BY DEAN PETERSON

This is my version of the DHC3 panel. It gives a good in the cockpit feel and utilizes some new custom gauges for authenticity.

The KMA 24 Audio gauge is functional and can be used to switch between com1 and com2 and switch radio idents on and off. It has marker lights and a test button.

Put the gauges into the FS9 gauge file and add the panel folder to your DHC3 aircraft file. I add a new aircraft option by adding [fltsm1] and change the panel entry to "panel=Dean". Under UI variation you can notate it as well so you know which one it is.

The sound files go into your main FS9 sound folder.

The DHC3 has three fuel tanks with different capacities. For the fuel selector and fuel gauges to work properly your plane needs three tanks. If it does not, you may copy and paste the following in your aircraft.cfg file over the original fuel info.
---------------------
[fuel]
Center1=-1.50, 0.00, -0.75, 102.00, 0.00 //Longitudinal (feet), Lateral (feet), Vertical (feet), Usable(gallons), Unusable (gallons)
LeftMain=0.30, 0.00, -0.75, 61.00, 0.00 //Longitudinal (feet), Lateral (feet), Vertical (feet), Usable(gallons), Unusable (gallons)
RightMain=-3.00, 0.00, -0.75, 50.00, 0.00 //Longitudinal (feet), Lateral (feet), Vertical (feet), Usable(gallons), Unusable (gallons)
fuel_type=1.00
number_of_tank_selectors=1
electric_pump=1
---------------------

If your plane does not have a VC, you can utilize the interior views by renaming the panel.cfg to panel.cfg.org. Then rename the INTERIOR VIEWS.panel.cfg to panel.cfg.

See the photo for the hot spots.

Hope you enjoy it.

Thanks to all the gauge creators, too numerous to mention them all. I do not remember where I got the interior views from so I cannot give the credit due.

This panel is freeware and no money can be made from it. All gauges, photos, bitmaps remain copyright to their authors. No modifications can be made without contacting the authors.

This panel works fine. I accept no responsiblity or liability of any type.
