    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

RealAir Scout DME question... where is it?

SOH-CM-2023
I have read the manual and scoured the aircraft- no joy. There is reference to a DME being available, and there is a DME speaker button on the ACP... but try as I might, I cannot locate a DME readout in the RealAir Scout. When scudrunning in the PNW it sometimes is very useful to have a radial and DME for positional information, and I would appreciate any pointer that would locate this for me... with Dimus' Locher on the horizon I have been practicing short field and obstructed approaches in this aeroplane, and the lack of a DME is my sole negative. After all these years, it's still a superlative airplane in Prepar3D v4.


Ta!

Although you can configure the avionics in the Realair American Champion aircraft, I'm almost certain there is no DME, so not sure where you would have seen reference to it.
 
Several of the a/c have an HSI option, and the Audio Control Panel includes a DME speaker selector button.... I "assumed" that it would accompany a DME (I know what they say about assuming...).

Best- C
 
I may be wrong, and I don't have the aircraft installed at present so I can't check, but I don't think the panel configurator works in P3d. This might be why you can't use the DME.
