MS Flight MAULE M-7-260C Engine start up

Is directional gyro drift and adjustment work in the maule?
The HSI, having a remote slaved gyro, won't have the drift (precession) that you are referring to... it's compensated for within the system.
the trim works just fine .
Just curious why then must you have the autopilot, as you put it "NOW"...

Because its the only thing thats not working that's why.

Suction gaugeHobbsPanel light reostatStall sirenStall lighttemp gauge (currently broken, but its made to work)All gauges are done in 3D and are very fluid.Plus the Flight Maule looks amazing vs the dull flat FSX Maule. Im also noticing a LOT of bugs in the FSX Maule. The right aileron animation is inverted. Opening the door causes the glass to slide forward. The aileron retracts into the wings at the extent of its animation. There is a big gap between the glass and left wing over the pilots head. The tank selector is facing the wrong way (handle goes AWAY from the selected tank).Should I go on? To put it bluntly, nobody knows about the FSX and Flight Maule then I do. Plus I know if FLY'S like a proper Maule. There are also a lot of the systems under the surface that are modeled better in the Maule that I cant go into detail about.
Please also keep in mind that the fsx version was included with fsx, the Flight version is a payware addon and should be way more accurate and feature rich then the fsx version anyways.

 

 

Also. I've had a lot of problems getting the maule off the ground. Now i'm not much good with taildraggers, so i may just be doing something stupid. But when i throttle on on the rumway, she does a 90 degree turn to the left and goes into the weeds. Full right rudder, or gradual application of power don't help. Turning off prop effect in settings didn't help. Is this a bug and is anyone else experiencing it, or am i missing something with my maule takeoff technique?
I liked Molly in FSX and would use it from time to time, enough where I didn't have any issues.Couple of days ago when everything got installed I was at Port Allen on Kaua'i and switched to the "new" Molly for a quick hop to Barking Sands. I firewalled the throttle and all #&@! broke loose. I eventually got her in the air, kinda sideways and made it to PHBK. Last night I was sitting at one of the small strips an The Big Island and changed to the Maule. I had tweaked my controller in the XML and slowly gave her power. Got up to speed and lifted off like a new plane.Making the small change in my joystick probably helped some, but more importantly was not bringing the FSX method of takeoff and respecting the differences in Flight's model. I think me and new Molly will bespending more time with each other, as long as I remember to respect her...
