    Hello, I am a new user of the JF PA-28 Warrior II.

    I have installed the PMS5 GTN750/650, it works, no problem. The PA28 I'm flying at the local airclub only has the 650.

    I would like to:

    1. remove the GTN750, and only leave the 650 in the panel.
    2. move the GTN650 elsewhere on the panel (basically, where the 750 currently is).

    Could someone walk me through how to do this ?

    I've looked at the panel.cfg, tried to fiddle with it for a while but couldn't figure out how to do what I need.

    Thanks.

    ps: not a world class problem but carb heat pulled on, the RMP drop should be in the 50-100rpm range. JF seems to have modelled like 10rpm. I've seen this mentioned elsewhere on the forum but hopefully this is not something too hard to correct.

    @jrkob I can't help you with the GPS stuff but for the carb heat, that question was answered by the devs a while ago. They said their reference aircraft had minimal loss of RPM when testing the carb heat. In the air, it seems to drop the RPMs a bit more when I've tested it.

    @katchaplin Thanks for the response.

    Do you know if there's a parameter in one of the cfg I could amend to change the rpm drop more to my liking ? Had a look but couldn't find something obvious.
    Does someone from JF respond typically on this forum ?

    edit: to answer my own question, change to my liking the parameter in the engines.cfg file under carb_heat_delta_temp. Changed to 80rpm and now matches the PA28 I fly, awesome :ok_hand:
    Suggestion from a generous soul on flightsimulator's forum.
