Weird speed tape

Featured Replies

I've searched but may have missed it but has anyone else had this problem? On almost every flight, once I get into cruise the speed tape will show all red bricks and the airspeed will be like 045. Then after a few seconds will recover and I will get a "overspeed disconnect" warning.

"The airspeed will be like 045". You mean 45 kts?I think you might want to post a screenshot to clarify sir.Best Regards,Bert Van Bulck

This is typically caused by an installation issue, weight and balance or bad data from an external weather program. So for the WX issues, what's the OAT when your having the issue? If its very warm then you need to change settings in your wx program to compensate our use FSUIPC to filter. If it's weight and balance then set the NG back to defaults and see if the problem persists. If it's none of these issues then you need uninstall and reinstall. If your using Vista or Win 7 please ensure you install as Admin.

The red brick problem is usually caused by the guauges.ini file not being updated by the extension installer, which can happen if the installer is not run as admin. Try George's recommendation. Also assign admin security rights to the pmdg folder and subfolders.
