P3Dv4.3: Problem with default GPS Variant !

Hello to all !
Using the default GPS in T-Otter I'm totally unable to push the CDI button for switching from GPS to VNAV !
This button seems not to be clickable - seems to be without any function !?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
I don't have those problems with the Otter or the Beaver...
There I can use the CDI button as intended... !
How can I switch between GPS and NAV receiving ?
Any help is welcome
greetings

Ggerolamo,
Try the following:
Open MVAMS, select the Otter, change the radio to anything other than the Default GPS (even if you dont have them). Save and close MVAMS.
Open MVAMS again, select the Otter and select the Default GPS.
Open the sim and see if the GPS works now

Hello , Thank You for having brought this to our attention , Its the first report of the issue. My investigation indicates an actual bug due to an item of code not being included in the model itself , this necessitates an update to the series .
Happily there is the ability to assign a keyboard shortcut for NAV 1 / GPS toggle , in Options - Key Assignments / radios within P3Dv4 and similarly in FSX as an interim fix while the update process is undertaken.

Thank you very much for the answer !
I am glad that you can confirm this issue
Meanwhile I use the 2D-popup to switch between nav and gps as an interim fix !
in the future I would prefer to be able to do without the 2d-window
... I'm looking forward to the fix !
Thanks in advance
