Go-Flight MCP-Pro and CaptainSim 767 for P3d (v5)

Does anyone know if the Go-Flight MCP-PRO works with the CaptainSim 767 for P3D v5 ??

I am also aware there is 3rd party go-flight interface software called PollyPot that probably would work, but I was hoping that the Go-Flight drivers will just work as-is.

As expected, the Go-Flight driver does not work with CS 767 on P3D (v5).  Looks like I will have to pursue the PollyPot software to try and come up with a configuration.  Maybe someone out there has already done this???

Have you found a GoFlight driver or PollyPot profile that works with the 767?

On the PollyPot Forum, someone posted one that sort of works...
https://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/support/forum.html

I have it on my TODO list to get back to trying to understand how to use that software to modify the config.  It is a bit quirky to work with, but shows promise.  I contacted the person on the forum, but he isn't responding.

Forgot to mention...

On that support forum, search for "767" and you will find it.

Also, I see on the PollyPot site for pre-done configs https://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/downloads.html, a person named Kevin Conlon has one for the CS 757, and he said it appears to work with the 767 as well (as he thinks the LVARS are the same).  He has it available on DropBox here - https://www.dropbox.com/s/g89zcmlohay5kb2/CS757_MCP_EFIS.zip
I'll have to try that out!
Can anyone confirm the LVARS for 757 and 767 products are the same???

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to succeed with this file.  Were you ever able to get it working?  Thanks.

AFAIK the LVARs for MCP is same across 757 and 767, some difference mainly on overhead.
My LINDA config for home made MCP works on both.

Unfortunately, I'm not able to get this working on either the 757 or 767.  Would you mind sharing your config or walking through how to install/run the config?  Is it the same one linked above?

Thank you.
