I have managed to configure the freeware WX Radar by Roland Herblot called RolASNradar available from Avsim.

This WX radar is based on the Active Sky API and comes in two versions:
FSX/SE/P3D V1-3 32-bit: https://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fsxgau&DLID=189664
P3D V4 64-bit: https://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=p3dgau&DLID=200102

Clearly you need Active Sky for this particular gauge  to work, but perhaps other weather radars can be fitted using these coordinates, or at least used as a starting point.

Remember that the first two numbers apply to the tor left corner X & Y position on the panel (205,250), and the next two numbers as X & Y apply to the size of the WX panel you need to cover the VC area (550,390).

This is how I have configured this WX Radar within the BAC 1-11's panel.cfg (same for both 300/400 & 500 variants).

1. Optional 2D WX Radar window:

[Window Titles]
Window00=RADIO STACK
Window01=GPS
Window02=WX Radar

[Window02]
size_mm=100,150
window_size_ratio=0.25  
position=2
visible=1
Window_pos=0.05,0.65
zorder=4
ident=16106
background_color=16,16,16
alpha_blend=0.80
gauge00=RolasnRadar!ShellRadGauge, 0,0,100,150, sweep|beam|icing

2. VC Configuration:

[Vcockpit05]
Background_color=0,0,0 
size_mm=1024,1024
visible=1
pixel_size=1024,1024
texture=$WXSP

gauge00=RolasnRadar!ConeRadGauge, 205,250,550,390, sweep|beam|icing


I hope that it works for you.

Fabio

Fabio,

Thank you! Going to give this a try when I have a chance.
