Hi everybody,

 

I just started using X-plane and although most things are quite straight-forward, I'm having trouble figuring some things out.

 

1 - Since I'm using the main X-plane PC as a 'visual system', I want the view to always be 'full screen without HUD' (or SHIFT+W). But when I start X-plane, it always starts up with the instrument panel in the screen. I can press SHIFT+W to get the full screen view (without panel), but when I reposition the aircraft the panel returns and I have to press SHIFT+W again. I just want it to stay in full screen view. Is there any way to do this?

 

2 - Does anybody have any experience with the built-in instructor panel? I'm thinking of using another PC to display the instructor panel on (connected by LAN cable). Does it work well?

 

3 - Any project magenta users out there that use it with X-plane? Any good results?

 

Thanks in advance for the help!

Anyhow, thanks for showing me the way!

 

Anyone else for the other questions?
