What is the PMDG GoFlight MCPPro Interface?

The PMDG GoFlight MCPPro Interface is a software interface that will allow you to use the GoFlight MCPPro hardware with the PMDG 747-400 or PMDG 737-600/700/800/900. You must own either product, both products AND the GoFlight MCPPro in order to enjoy this product.

The PMDG GoFlight MCPPro Interface is available for sale through the PMDG eCommerce site.

YOUR GoFlight MCPPro MUST BE FIRMWARE VERSION 1.01 OR LATER! (Use MCPProChk.exe to determine version. If you need to update the firmware, please contact GoFlight Technical Support!)

YOU STILL NEED

The GoFlight Configuration drivers

You can download the GoFlight Configuration installer here.

The license key file

The downloaded PMDG GoFlight MCPPro interface installer merely installs the software interface that is required. Please note that you should have visited the PMDG GoFlight MCPPro interface license key generator web page which provides you with a license key from PMDG that is required to be installed in the FS/PMDG directory in order to activate this interface. The license key is valuable, so please keep your copy safe, along with this installer.

Troubleshooting

Installation Order Matters!

Please make sure that you install the GoFlight MCPPro Interface AFTER you have installed the 737 800/900 product - if you try to reinstall the 800/900 later, you'll end up overwriting some critical files, so you'll need to once again run the GoFlight MCPPro Interface Installer to update the necessary files.

My GoFlight MCPPro behaves really slowly!

Make sure that you're running your GoFlight MCPPro hardware in 'Compatible Add-On' mode. You can select this mode using your GFConfig program which is installed when you run the GoFlight installation setup software.

The PMDG->GoFlight MCPPro menu option is greyed out!

You have overwritten some critical files by reinstalling the 737NG 800/900. Please reinstall the GoFlight MCPPro interface using the installer.

Will my GoFlight MCPPro Interface be compatible with upcoming Microsoft Flight Sim X versions?

We'll make every effort to provide compatibility once we know the level of difficulty involved in upgrading our code for FSX.
