    This is an edit to move my post from the wrong thread...

    I only installed the warrior yesterday. I like a lot, so forgive if these questions are answered already...

    Audio:

    How do I get sound from ATC talking to me? All I get is the text in the ATC text window.

    Lighting:

    Turning the a-coll on actually turns on white strobes on wingtips. The red a-coll on the tail should be the correct light.

    Is there a switch for the nav lights? Handbook says "Lights fitted to the aircraft include navigation, anti-collision, landing". The model only shows 2 rocker switches for external lights i.e. Landing and Anti-Coll. Where are nav and strobe switches please?

    See the linked image for what I see...

    RTFM - 30 minutes later...

    OH! That is weird! - the red anti coll beacon and nav lights are wired to the rotating radio lights switch - just one click off the 0% position.

    Is that not a fault in your model? Or do real warriors get wired the same. I do see the wording to the left - "Nav lights" and "Radio lights". it just seems odd...

    So... just the audio remains major to me. Some more RTFM needed?

      @Eagleskinner Make sure the radio is "on" and the volume is up:

      The little tab above the big dial should point to "on", and the volume knob under it should be turned up

        Turn on the nav lights via the wheel switch just to the left of the Battery/Alternator switch. That also turns on the strobes, and turns up the backlights on the radio panels.

        And yes, this was based off a real aircraft.

            [Edit: I've just seen that you already have this one sorted. However, in case anyone else needs it, here is the post I wrote in reponse to the nav lights and rotating beacon...]

            Page 10 of the manual is wrong re: the nav lights (I have sent JF a support ticket about this). They are controlled by the rheostat switch on the left of the lighting panel (page 21 of the manual).

            When the nav lights are switched on, the rotating beacon comes on, too. (Thank you to @RetiredMan93231 for telling me about that one - unfortunately, the manual doesn't mention the rotating beacon at all.)

            The anti-collision rocker switch controls only the strobe.
