Thread: Great job! Couple issues though.

  1. #1

    Default Great job! Couple issues though.

    It just keeps getting better. The ATR now this! Great perf. too.

    I read the manual so I'm very sorry if this is covered there, if it is can just direct me the right section?

    I loaded the 727 after the default 172 and flew around for a while. I left FS9, returned later and loaded the 727 over the cessna again. The plane loaded the way I left it, the a/p alt. setting was the same, the a/p settings were the same period, my trim was also WAY out of wack, I couldn't even t/o again. How do I reset the panel? I even tried re-booting with no luck.

    Also, I tried it with FSNav and it tracked to heading great, however, even with FSNav only in heading mode, I no longer had control of my pitch, the plane just settled at 6700 ft., I had zero vertical control.

    Thanks for a great package, hope I can get it running correctly. It's probably my fault anyway.

    I had the same problem with the panel load states as you described. I went back and reset the Config Manager using the "reset" button as per Todd's advice and they worked again.

    As far as FSNav goes it only works correctly with the default autopilot.

    Of course, I knew it was me.

    I thought since this plane works with the default GPS that it would work with FSNav??

    BTW, how's your cockpit zoom working? I usually set mine down to 80% for realism. With the 727, 80% seems like more zoom than 100%. Maybe I'm nuts. I just hate too much zoom, it doesn't gie the feeling of speed. Thanks again

    Well, its not really your fault. I think its a bug. Even if its not I'd rather not have to reset it every time.

    As far as zoom goes, I just use the default.

    Hi there,

    regarding the panel state - it is saved in a file called GA727.cfg when you end a flight with the 727 (change the aircraft or end the flight sim).
    Quite a lot of parameters are saved and exactly that panel situation is loaded once you load the 727 again.

    This is a feature so that you can continue a flight.

    Regarding the trim - probably you had the autopilot activated when you last ended a flight with the 727 and when you load it a again the AP tries to establish the same configuration.

    Best way to reset the panel should be you load and save the "Cold & Dark" panel state again from C-O-M.

    Hope this helps,
    Best Regards,
    Ingo Voigt
