Did that fix your pod issue too?
No, it only fixed the pontoon inflation issue by putting the switch on the collective.

I can confirm the pod (and other externals) show only on the select vehicle screen. They do not show up on external view... Unfortunately we will have to wait for one of the devs to get a chance to look at this.

... And after I typed the above, they show up...

By the way, pilot has one black eye...

I dont know what I did other than try different models several times (without closing P3D). I also tabbed out of P3D to come to Milviz to post the above. Maybe that also helped...

I don't know. I have tried all the options in the MVAMS and opened and closed it several times to change the configuration, no luck.

Each individual livery has its own init , selections are saved for the version selected only , if you are loading a different livery the selections will not show up until set for that livery , Pontoons require a restart of the sim because the actual model is changed and isn't instant.

I don't change anything once I start the sim. The changes are made before I start. I really like the 407, the configuration manager for it is a bit baffling. I don't have this problem with Huey or 530

Chuck, I can confirm the same issue. The pod, Night Sun and FLIR show up in the Aircraft Selection screen, but once you enter the sim they are not there. It took me several changes from one livery to another to have them show up. And I'm not really sure that is what fixed it. I loaded the sim again (same livery) and the pod is not there anymore
