Air Nostrum Fokker 50

Hello,

Is anybody else having trouble with Juan Vilamor's Air Nostrum Fokker 50.

In FS2004 I can't seem to get the IAS to hold due to the engines throttling down and

the VSI tends to drift to much while climbing.

This is a great plane and would like to get it to fly.

I just downloaded the one in the library, the only one that is a full aircraft. In the aircraft.cfg file under

[Autopilot]

Autothrottle requires arming=-256 change to 1 this should be a 1 or 0.

The next post has an autopilot configuration that will work.

I'm using the panel that came with it. I copied in [Autopilot] from another Dash8-100 and it no longer looses throttle power. Give it a try.

[autopilot]

autopilot_available= 1

flight_director_available= 1

default_vertical_speed= 800.0

autothrottle_available= 1

autothrottle_arming_required=1

autothrottle_max_rpm = 1000

autothrottle_takeoff_ga = 1

max_pitch=10.0

max_pitch_acceleration=1.0

max_pitch_velocity_lo_alt=2.0

max_pitch_velocity_hi_alt=1.5

max_pitch_velocity_lo_alt_breakpoint=20000.0

max_pitch_velocity_hi_alt_breakpoint=28000.0

max_bank=25.0

max_bank_acceleration=1.8

max_bank_velocity=3.00

max_throttle_rate=0.10

nav_proportional_control=9.00

nav_integrator_control=0.25

nav_derivative_control=0.00

nav_integrator_boundary=2.50

nav_derivative_boundary=0.00

gs_proportional_control=9.52

gs_integrator_control=0.26

gs_derivative_control=0.00

gs_integrator_boundary=0.70

gs_derivative_boundary=0.00

yaw_damper_gain = 1.0

pitch_takeoff_ga=8.000000

autothrottle_takeoff_ga=0

autothrottle_max_rpm=90.000000

This is needed to change the radio frequencies from the main panel.

[Radios]

// Radio Type=available, standby frequency, has glide slope

Audio.1=1

Com.1=1, 0

Com.2=0, 0

Nav.1=1, 0, 1

Nav.2=1, 0, 0

Adf.1=1

Transponder.1=1

Marker.1=1
