Default ADF/VOR navigation question

Search for HSI (Horizontal Situation Indicator) and RMI (Remote Magnetic
Indicator),.

The HSI is simply a VOR indicator within a heading instrument. Imagine
taking the VOR indicator and laying it on top of the heading indicator. You
set the OBS, by pointing the arrow with the appropriate knob. This is like
turning the standard VOR indicator so that it better corresponds with the
heading.

The RMI simply points to the station, selectable to ADF or VOR with the
little white buttons. By superimposing them on a heading instrument, you
can also tell where the station is with regard to the aircraft and vice
versa.

I like flying the Beech King Air 350 in FS 2004 and also recently started
flying for a virtual airline with this plane.
I took all the flying lessons regarding VOR navigation in FS 2004, but in
all those lessons the Cessna's instrument panel is used. Unfortunately the
Beech King Air 350 has a very different instrument panel than the Cessna

and
as far as I can tell no mention in any of the lessons is made as to how to
use the King Air's instruments for ADF/VOR navigation. Can anyone direct

me
to a website which explains ADF/VOR navigation a bit more clearly, esp.
using instruments found in the King Air?

TIA,

Ralf
