Mapping the radios
-
Is it possible to read out the values for the COM, NAV and ADF as it's shown in the virtual cockpit? Seems like the values that are shown in the virtual cockpit are not necessary standard standby or active frequencies.

…anyone?

The frequencies displayed on the analogue counters in the cockpit should be the exact same frequencies that are being set within the simulator. An easy way of testing this is to open the in-game ATC menu and compare the frequency set in the cockpit versus the frequency shown in the menu. The only time these two values may not be synchronised is when the aircraft does not have any electrical power.
I don't believe there is any other way of displaying the radio frequencies in the simulator. If you are familiar with the SDK, you could use the Simvar Watcher tool to view the 'COM ACTIVE FREQUENCY:1', 'COM STANDBY FREQUENCY:1' ,etc simvars and those will show exactly what frequency is being set.

I believe the number displayed, is only visible in any Simvar when the unit is on. If the number was also broadcasted in the standby frequency also when the unit was not on (it can still be adjusted and seen on the gauge, so it's in essence a standby frequency), it would work very well.

Maybe it's possible to do a small code change on the user end, to get the frequency (COM and NAV) on the device to be broadcasted to the 'standby' simvars, no matter what state the radio's are in? (And it could perhaps be included in further builds if does not make any problems? I suspect it would not make any chaos at all.)
Secondly, it would be useful to know what conditions that trigger the 3 warning lights on the panel. It's of course possible to backtrack it while using a simvar watcher, but maybe it's documented somewhere?

por favor?
