February 21, 201115 yr Well, the problem of autopilot engaging has been solved, it was all a question of leaving any pressure on the joystick while pushing the button.I still have not been able to arm LNAV on the ground. I always get a "NOT ON INTERCEPT HEADING" message in the CDU while I have a perfectly aligned with the runway first leg in my flightplan.About the config manager and Ifly menu: I get different results every time I load the aircraft (always after loading the C172 first), sometimes I get correct fuel load, sometimes one tank is full and the other empty, sometimes the engines are running and sometimes not, sometimes the units are US and others metric, etc etc.About the unstability: Despite having my Joystick perfectly calibrated via registered Fsuipc and working OK with other aircraft, with the Ifly 737 (properly trimmed) the slightest movement of the joystick at takeoff makes the aircraft rotate violently with no possibility of control. I've tried setting the sensibility of the joystick to minimum in the Ifly menu, but did not make any difference.Anyway, I've now already registered as a licensed member in the Ifly forum and will take these issues there and see if I can find solutions to my problems.Look forward seeing you there :( Because all your issues are being answered and solved lots of times in iFly forum :( Hoang Le i7 13700k - Sapphire Nitro+ AMD RX 7900 XT - Asus TUF Z790 PLUS D4 - Gskill Trident 32GB DDR4-3600 LG 34GP63A-B Ultrawide - ASUS VG259QM MSFS2020
February 21, 201115 yr Couldn't agree more with JP here. I don't mean anything on basa,those are his opinions. Some people was so used to flight simulator that almost forget about the real side of this bird and they are annoyed by some "strange" behaviors with the iFly 737 which are the "realistic" behaviors and keep saying those are bugs.And yes, I am too have been used to the "V1..Rotate..V2..Possitive Rate...Gear Up" by the F/O but hey,iFly designed for us to be the captain,so if you want a F/O sits next to you,pay for the FS2Crew and enjoy it :biggrin:I can't wait to buy the FS2Crew edition for iFly :(Yes, there is no Rotate, V2, ect. But there aren't any of those other than V1 in a real 737. Thats why they are not included. If it is not in the real one it's not in IFLY. I've been flying MSFS since the very first one came out. (Boy was it ugly) and I'll have to say that Ifly 737 is the best addon I've bought. Just my two cents.Brad
February 21, 201115 yr I'll also add that my first experience of the iFly was a bit frustrating but once you get your head round it it comes together. I too used to fly the 767 all the time as it is rock solid and doesn't contain any suprises, and is one of the handful of FS9 add-ons that really worked like a charm out of the box.Stick with the iFly. In terms of your problems, you can't apply AP with any pressure on the column or if you're out of trim, just as in the real thing. The F/O calls rotate, the aircraft only calls V1, again total realism. My EasyJet FO mate says LNAV is never armed on the ground in the 73 as the FMC update has been a bit buggy and it made the airlines nervous, so they stick with selecting LNAV at 500 feet. 'Not on intercept heading' I think means you're too far from the waypoint, amongst other things, even if you're on the right heading. It's in the manual. The iFLy will usually load from the last exited state, which is always engines off for me. The guys on the forums are great and there's no sarcastic-God-complex 'hey retard try the search functions' administration like you find in at least two of the major producer's forums!
February 21, 201115 yr Anyway, I've now already registered as a licensed member in the Ifly forum and will take these issues there and see if I can find solutions to my problems.And when you get there use the search function for your "issues". Bobby Arnold
February 21, 201115 yr 'a really excited user mode - on' :( Basically then the iFly 73x is no different than any other properly executed high level addon aircraft we've seen in the past. As usual, there's any number of user errors during the acclimation period, system specific occurrences, as well as actual bugs. As indicated above, the iFly team is second to none in addressing all of the above types of issues. As a seasoned LDS and PMDG user, I'm having a blast with this already top tier and still evolving package. Regards, Mark

As with all new products, "READ THE FORUMS" You'll find a topic regarding takeoff. It says as in RL operations to arm LvlChg and Hdg on the runway then after you cleanup the AC when you've taken off to then switch to VNav and Lnav at 300-500 ft.
February 21, 201115 yr The iFLy will usually load from the last exited state...slight correction - 'state of last exit' is one of three selectable startup options - user selects which they prefer in the Myfleet menu for each individual repaint - very cool.'a really excited user mode' off :( Regards, Mark
