Virtual Cockpit Panel Problems

I recently bought the V35 Bonanza. FSX kept crashing when I would start the engines with the primer. So I installed the patch and all was fine.

I have a bigger problem. I can't click anything in the VC and sometimes I get the double gauges problem where you see two of everything and each gauge is compressed very badly. It is quite annoying. I tried disabling 3D knobs and windows. What else can I do?
Even the GNS 430 won't come on when I turn it on through the 2D window from shift+2. It is as if all buttons are frozen. The main gauges work though.

Maybe I'm late to the party but I real enjoy flying the piper Arrow.

this little aircraft is very forgiving, predictable and a sheer joy for short hops.

 

I only fly non-jet, GA high performance singles and light twins, real wx, xp reality.

 

I have 

Carenado

- PT Malibu - cool but many bugs

- Archer

- Cherokee

- V35  -blah

- C340II w/ RAM upgrade - too buggy and sometimes wont descend

- Baron58 - I turbo'd for more power at higher alt

- B33 - also turbo'd very nice aircraft. well laid out

- Mooney - fast

 

Milviz

- 310 R - also turbo'd  --This is my main a/c

 

Realair

- Duke Turbine - very nice, delicate, complicated but getting the hang

New C206 - Concern

That new Cessna Turbo 206 is sure looking nice. I have 2 major concerns over it though, in case anyone hadn't noticed. First is, the tach in the new screenshots is redlined at (what looks to be) 2400 rpm. The engine in this aircraft is rated to 2500 rpm (see here:  http://www.cessna.com/~/media/Files/Single%20Engine/Turbo%20Stationair/Stationair%202013%20206H%20SD.ashx - go to the bottom of Page 7 for the engine specs). Now you can't see the tach straight on, but I'm wondering if Carenado "borrowed" the tach from an older 182 they did some years back? It almost looks that way as it was redlined at about 2400. I truly hope not, but either way the tach is not correct and 100 rpm's can mean the difference between getting off before the end of the runway or not if your high and it's hot, even with turbocharging. And besides, why go 100% with the graphics then slack off on something as simple as a gauge marking?

 

Second concern is I really hope the wheel pants are removable. Don't get me wrong - they look really sharp. But in the back country or anywhere you get much ice or snow in the winter, they have to come off in the cold season (or Mother Nature will remove them for you!). Other than that, and assuming the switches work as they should (not backwards or inop) and with the realization that the "G1000" is not a G1000, this looks like a pretty decent offering. Let's hope the above is corrected/confirmed before release.

Carenado possible larger Aircraft?

So I'd like to ask....

 

Carenado is into prop aircraft but would they be willing to make larger prop aircraft, say the ATR 72-600 Series someday?

Or maybe a medium-sized aircraft like the Piaggio Avanti?

 

I own three aircraft so far, each one equally amazing!

Can't Find Map in FS9 Baron GPS

I'm not able to get the map to show on the GPS.  I set my flight plan in FS9 and the list of way points are there when I turn on the GPS.  But I can't find the map.

 

I saw a tutorial on youtube which said to keep moving the knob so different blocks beside the "nav" on the bottom right of the gps screen are activated.  There are 5 blocks on the video but mine only has two blocks.

 

Any help? 

 

Thanks

Is the F33 a nice plane? I currently use the A36, but I am not liking the Aspen and it takes away a bit of the fun. I have the RealityXP. Is the F33 fitted with the RealityXP a nice plane to fly. What is the difference between the F33 and the A36?

Just heard officially from Carenado on this...and yes, they are planning to release G1000 fps patches for both their SR22 & T182. They hope to have something out publicly within a few weeks following the 206 release.

 

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy!! I'll probably be buying them both when it happens.

C90 or B200 for FSX

For quite some time, I have been trying to decide between the C90 and B200 for FSX.  I have a couple questions that I hope you guys can answer to help me choose.  First, which is better made by Carenado?  Second, which has better framerates?  Third, which one is more enjoyable to fly in the sim?  I am aware of the real life differences between the two when it comes to airspeed, range, etc. 

 

Thanks,

As per instructions in the DOCs, I first enter the departure airport, then my next waypoint. However, I am always getting a reversed order and I cannot find a way to "reverse" that order from menu items.

OK, what am I doing wrong ,,,,

I first enteres CYRO, then YOW as my first waypoint, but it is going to get backwards

Then as I completed entering the flight plan, I highlight YOW as my first waypoint, click enter, and PRESTO >> not good, going the wrong way man !!

Glide Slope Capture

I was wondering if one of the brilliant programmers out there could look into the autopilot being able to capture glide slope. The real manual for the Century III says that it can do it as an option. It seems that Carenado did not model this and was wondering if there was a way to get it to do it. The aircraft cfg under radios says glide slope is available for the nav 1 radio. If this is not an option then has anyone got a nice install of another autopilot. Thanks in advance.

Trouble with Flight Planning on TBM850

Hello,

I really impressed with this TBM850, but I'm having a little trouble manually building a flight plan in the G1000.  When I select "FPL" and get the flight planning window, I then click on the small FMS knob to get the next window and put in the airport ICAO code as the first waypoint. Then I push "ENT" but another window comes up to give the option to make it the active waypoint.  If I select "OK" and hit "ENT" again, the window disappears.  If I select "Cancel", I go back to the original flight plan box, but nothing is entered.

I've looked at the manual and tried it the way it says, but I can't get the flight plan box to accept a waypoint when I select "ENT".

What could I be doing wrong.  

If I let FSX build the plan, of course, it will accept it ok.

 

Thank you,

Bob

Turbo Charging Update

Hi all.

 

 

Gave this item a second look, and have started full bore to make a Carenado Baron 58TC version.

 

 

I can do this in two ways;

 

1.) A separate plane with it's own parameters... separate Aircraft folder and gauge set.

 

or

 

B.) wholesale change of the current liveries in your Carenado B58 File.

 

 

No matter which, there will be a new livery included that I'm currently working on.

 

8fwz.jpg

 

The good news is, no .air file changes are needed... so this is purely an aircraft.cfg and gauge change affair.  It'll take a couple weeks for the entire package, but no matter what, you will need the Carenado B58. Option 1 will not work without it.

 

Any interest?

 

 

ALSO: if anyone knows of a link to a POH for the 325 hp turbocharged B58, please post it here. Thanks!

Carenado PA-32 Piper Saratoga as AI aircraft

Hey!
I have a Carenado Piper PA-32 Saratoga for FS9, which I use to make some flights in FS9.
Now, I recently found a 'CarPA32_OO-RAG' repaint for this aircraft, and I want to use this as an AI-variation and make it fly via Ttools.
I tried everything that I know to make it AI aircraft but I cannot make it fly. I did all the things necessary to compile the traffic-file, but it never shows up...
The traffic file is OK, because there are over 50 aircraft in it, and all fly well, except this Piper....
Has anyone better experiece with the Carenado Piper PA32 as an AI aircraft? What can I have done wrong?

How to remove 3d knobs?

Hi

 

I am having issues stopping the 3D knobs displaying. I have installed RX Garmin GNS 430 and used the FOR CUSTOMIZATION folders with required .cfg edits but the knobs continue to display over the top of the RX instrument. The Carenado Baron 58 has a mini panel that allows you to turn off the knobs is there any way in the F33 to do the same??

F33 Fuel Selector

Hi, I just started flying the 33 Bonanza again and I've got a question.  Does the fuel selector in the real plane really behave like it does in the sim, where when switching tanks you have to go through the off position?  I noticed that the graphics on the selector show that it can be selected otherwise.

 

So if the real thing isn't like what is modeled I was thinking I might try to look at the xml and see if something could be done about it, if it is a xml gauge, does anyone know where this xml might be located?

 

Thanks Mark :Idea:

Which C340 II?

July 20, 2013, 5:07 am

Carenado has, within the last couple of weeks, produced a C340 II for X-Plane.

 

While I have flown FSX and its previous versions since back in the early 90s and others before that, I have just about exclusively moved over to X-Plane because of their efforts to continually improve the experience.

 

Many of the posts here ask about things that apparently are FSX problems (like CTDs which don't occur with X-Plane 64bit) and it appears to me that the X-Plane environment has corrected these problems.  I still go back, occasionally, to FSX and it has served me well for many years so I don't mean to be talking it down - just stating a fact.  In fact, I fly Flight and P3D some, but find the X-Plane people more "in tune" with their product.

 

It would be nice, I think, if there were a separate C340 II forum - dedicated to X-Plane and I wouldn't have to sort out this confusing problem.

 

It has taken me a while to master the C340s unique stability issues, but really do enjoy the challenges it presents.  I fly with the Saitek Yoke  and two throttle quadrants which give me seperate control over both engines and, with X-Plane, really shows how slight differentials in throttle or prop settings will cause (or correct) many problems.  Coupled with pedals, you really feel like you are there.

 

I know there are those who might disagree with my observations, but I still would like to see a way to differentiate the platforms as it is confusing to read about a problem only to realize that it doesn't apply.

 

John
