Erroneous attitudes

Featured Replies

I recently installed FSX on my computer after letting it sit on the shelf for a long time because it just never agreed with my low end system. So, after drooling over some of the new addons to be released to the fsx world, particularly Caranado's c208, as I'm a real 208 driver, I've been determined to try again. After some tweaking I found from the internet I've managed to squeeze out 20fps fluidly in most areas, but the problem I'm having is the attitude indicators all show about a 4-5 degree nose DOWN pitch on the ground and in level flight. The 172 and the king air actually indicate a 4-5 degree pitch UP when on the ground and when cruising level. The altimeters, v/s indicators and airspeed indicators all seem to be working correctly giving proper pitch indications (which would be fun if you were practicing gyro failures), so it looks like its just the attitude that's not quite right.Has anyone else come across this before? I did a google search and nothing came up so I thought this would be the best place to troubleshoot. Regards, drew

The pitch angle of the aircraft sitting on the ground can be revised in the aircraft.cfg file. I wouldn't expect this to have any effect on it's display while in flight. The C172 static_pitch is listed as 3.02 up and the King Air is listed as 0.5 up on my installation.

Thanks for the information, and I did have a look and the cfg but I was unsure of what to look for. I eventually did a re-install and that seemed to correct things.
