American Champion 2D/3D panels based on the aircrafts by Long Island Classics (LIC) . Actually this is a Citabria panel.

Bitmap panel designed from a photograph by David Eliasson with his kind authorization - see also Airliners.net

About the gauges :

The altimeter is a MS R22 default instrument.

Most of the XML gauges are built directly on the panel bitmap.

About the VC : Some gauges as the throttle are available - I don't know how ?! Directly built in the model ?

Radios : just a COM1 and XPNDR appliances so please verify the following declaration in the aircraft.cfg file:

[Radios] // Radio Type = availiable, standby frequency, has glide slope
Audio.1 = 0
Com.1 = 1, 1
Com.2 = 0, 0
Nav.1 = 0, 0, 0
Nav.2 = 0, 0, 0
Adf.1 = 0
Transponder.1 = 1
Marker.1 = 0

Don't hesitate to modify the [VIEWS] characteristics in the panel.cfg and aircraft.cfg files to adjust your vision in the VC panel as you like it.

I did my best to integrate the radios in the VC (there is a kind of window where the gauges are perturbated). The more I don't now how to modify a VC ; - ((

Installation :

Unzip the files in a temporary file (you will erase it when everything OK) and then copy them as followed :

The folder "Panel.FP" must be in the directory X:\FS ...\...\Airplanes or aircraft\Choosenairplane.

Put the FP_7EC.gau cab file in the general "Gauges" folder or in the hereabove folder, don't unzip it.

Declare the panel in the "aircraft.cfg" file :

Add the following text below the group [fltsim.x] if x was the last declaration :

[fltsim.x+1]
title= as you want but to be recognized easily
sim= as found in [fltsim.x]
model= copy from [fltsim.x] or let it blank
panel=FP
sound= copy from [fltsim.x] or let it blank
texture= copy from [fltsim.x] or let it blank
...
ui_variation=any personnal identification [different of other/default to let the avatar be seen in the catalog !]
...
all others items = copy from [fltsim.x] or let it blank or modify as you can recognize all info.

==========================================================================================

License :

Enjoy it, copy it, give it, speak about it .... but don't make money with it !

Of course I would be happy if you are kind enough - or just honest - to inform me if you redistribute it - the more if you modify it.

For any comment, trouble, complain or idea about this work - especially about the working of the gauge in comparison with the real instrument - please report it to :
