GPS for the FW 190A possible?

[william thompson]

Greetings everyone, I really enjoy cross country flights in the 190a, but I find vfr navigation is difficult at 400 kph, and I wonder if it is possible to add a GPS to the aircraft? It would be a great help, Best Wishes, william thompson

Hey William,

sure, you can add the default one or any other third party gps as a popup window to the panel.cfg.
Here is an example from the Fw190A-1 utilizing the default gps.
You would just add the parts highlighted in red.
The window toggles with Shift+3.
