Now, the GCCs have individual rules the GCS, .gcs is the Ground Control Set, and these Ground Control Sets are what we need to be able to import and export. Once these Ground Controls are set up, you can make a new set and you can call it, you know, whatever you want to call it, that new set and you can actually export it and now they're called and we save it to our Desktop. What we get here is an XML file, which is that set of Ground Controls. Now, we can see, here, we have some... I'm going to copy those onto my Desktop, Next, see, we have different, And if I go into FlightCheck, now, and I go to Set and Import Ground Controls, I should now be able to see, if I go by name, right here, other one is named MWE Well, it's not named that, but it's the dot Ground Control Set dot XML (.gcs.xml). So, if I select that, and I click Open... Now, this is from an older version of FlightCheck. That must be version, you know, 6, version 5. And we click Open. We now get, in our Ground Controls, here, listed, it puts Default before it, but you could, you know you, this is exactly... what this is here is exactly this. And if I go there, you'll see the Ground Controls change, and you'll see they're now locked. And they are now locked into what those Ground today in my... in my modern FlightCheck. That's quite neat that just by simply going to, under Ground Controls, under Set, you can go Import Ground Controls and you can import the old set of Ground Controls, or new sets, doesn't matter. Now, some people might get confused with, up here, File - Preflight Mode. For instance, we have some resolution that's too low and RGB. So, you'll want to go in and fix that and missing images, etc. Hover over any item, you'll see what it's checking for. So, File - Open isn't a way to change or import Ground Controls for FlightCheck. It's under... and it's not under Preferences. You'd be looking around there for a while, like you just saw. It's under Ground Controls - Set - Import Ground Control Sets. Select them. Open. And there it is, right under there, for you to use. This has been David Dilling from Markzware on how to import Ground Control sets into Markzware's FlightCheck, now on version 7.
