777 flight

[Guest britair]

Hi all I downloaded FSUIPC.dll version 3.5.3.0 and installed it to the modules folder of FS9. I then flew the 777 on a short flight from Bali to Darwin (950nmls).The a/c behaved perfectly in all phases of flight ,I tried 8x accel the nodding had disappeared, the descent and ILS capture were accurate the a/c held the speed accurately even in real weather with gust of 12knots from 15degees off the heading, I took over from the autopilot at 500ft did a normal landing but the a/c the started to yaw off the runway which I managed to control but the the a/c seems to be very light footed as even spoilers & rev. thrust did not appear to aid runway handling. One other item the autobrakes do not go to manual with amber message as is normal on all autobraked Boeings. I posted this as I have read all the flak PSS are getting andwondered if a lot of the problems were associated with a conflict with FSUIPC. Brian

Brian,> I posted this as I have read all the flak PSS are getting>andwondered if a lot of the problems were associated with a>conflict with FSUIPC.Thanks for the support. It is true that a lot of the bobbing was down to FSUIPC but it still didn't stop us taking the chance to redo the FDEs whilst the panel patches were being done.

Hi Brian.While you're waiting for the patch, try the "keypad 5" method I mentioned in post http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...10060&mode=fullThat should keep you going straight down the runway with only minimal rudder control inputs.Jeff (FlyinJ)

Funny - I have used 3 different versions of FSUIPC with the T7 and have never seen any of the "bobbing" problems. But, I have regularly seen the sliding problems and found the aircraft impossible to control on the runway with any xwind - until I tweaked the aircraft .cfg. None of this was affected by the FSUIPC version. An FDE problem I think; and perhaps nothing to do with Pete Dowson's work?John RPS for Norman. A couple of months ago you said, twice, that you were going to have a look at xwind performance on the runway - did you ever get round to it?
