Pss A3xx Nose Dives On Approach.

[jetlover1118 0]

Ok, everything was going great flying the buses until I installed th Fs9.1 update. I only have one problem and It's a major pain. On final approach the aircraft is locked into the glideslope on a slow steady decent, I deactivate the autopilot at about 100ft and the aircraft suddenly nose dives into the ground. Is anyone else having this problem?

Since I use Bob Scott's FDE's this problem no longer exists. Check this Forum for his latest version.Rgds, Sam

Yes, definitly. It is happening to a lesser degree with all my aircraft, so it points to a fs issue.

I've been searching the forum for 2hrs with no luck. Could someone point me in the right direction to find this file?

I believe that file is for the 330/340 and not the 320 serieswas it nose diving bfore the FS9 patch?John PSS SUPPORTsupport@phoenix-simulation.co.ukhttp://www.avsim.com/pss/phoenix.jpg

No it wasn't. Only after the 9.1 patch.

I have now got the new Flight One ATR and in the first few pages of their manual, there is a description of the setup procedure that almost eliminates nose dive when diconnecting a/p.Very basically, if you have the latest payware FSUIPC and CH controls, first go to fsuipc joysticks tab and disable all those controls, then go to the fs controls/sensitivities and set all to max and null zones to a very small minimum (for both joystick and rudder). Next go back to fsuipc and recalibrate your controls. Now you can go back to fs and reset sensitivities to normal which would be for the pss a3xx around 40% with 5%nulls on ailerons and elevators-and max + 2% for throttle.If you look at the readme files that come with fsuipc, under the heading"Joysticks [FS2000, FS2002 and FS2004]", most of this is explained.It has helped me quite a bit, but it may not help with other systems.Perhaps Pss or Bob Scott may have better information on this. Or maybe the man himself, Pete Dowson?

I have just installed a soundblaster card and suddenly have massive improvement in control, especially on approach.

Hi.Did somebody try this new FDE???Is it better then default one.ThanksEdin

[Guest speight]

Edin,I did a couple of circuits last night in A320 IFDG~Pss and it was as near as dammit, flawless, both manual and auto!!!

[ehasanov1 1]

Thanks I'm using PSS without IFDG.I will try to change air and cfg files (from Pedro O.)I must say that I don't have problems with default one, but I changed something ...scalar I can't remember.Thanks againEdin

[Guest Skywalker]

Right... Bob Scott recommended some changes to the lift_scalar values. So far I have no problems with the default FDE's this way...Rgds, Sam
