How To Navigate Panel 1
Greetings.

I am having difficulty navigating panel 1. I can use my Wingman 3D hat switch to navigate the lower elements of the panel, but I can't seem to figure out how to cycle the "Navigation," "Transactions," and "Contacts" tabs. How is this done?

For the record, to this point, I find the tutorial to be lacking in specific details. It tells you "what" to do, but not does not do such a good job on the "how" part.

Thanks for any help.

The navv panel on a keyboard is auto lock to 1.

IIRC default settings for all menues are:
W,A,S,D for navigating within a tab
Q,E for switching tabs

Probbably because it presupposes that peope are able to check and understand their configured controls. I'd suggest you check and/or modify your current bindings.

Q and E should do that.

I agree to an extent. But how can I know what a key controls if I don't even know what it is? I can/t make that connection unless I actually use it while playing. Or how can I. in game, use a control if I don't know exactly what the gizmo is called or where it is in the cockpit? There a zillion control keys and readouts. Sure, I could spend a few hours starring at the configuration keys, but when I am in game I don't know where in the cockpit whatever any particular key controls is!
