August 12, 201312 yr You may also want to check your speed settings inside the FMC? I notice that your are flying in VNAV mode so the FMC is following some sort of vertical profile. Did you set anything up for the flight? EDIT: Sorry, see you have speed option set, ignore please! Kind regards Werner Gillespie CYB2400Proud member of Cyber Air Virtual AirlinesAVSIM Staff Member
August 12, 201312 yr I had this problem back when. Portal had solution but I forgot what it is. Happy landings, Mike Eppright
August 12, 201312 yr Author Portal had solutio Portal? who is that? And yeah I have raised a support ticket with PMDG Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter
August 13, 201312 yr Are you using external weather programs?Some will cause abnormally high upper altitude Temperatures which will decrease the aircraft's performance. +13C at FL410 is by no means a normal temperature. You may read the Manuals, or fly the tutorials to become aquainted with the NGX's operations.
August 13, 201312 yr Author Are you using external weather programs? No. I generally use the FSX weather themes or one of the Orbx weather themes. Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter

August 13, 201312 yr You have the Autobrakes set so this may affect your speed. You only need the Autobrakes on RTO for takeoff and 1,2,3 for landing not during normal flight. As soon as you have established a positive rate of climb, you can turn the Autobrakes to Off. Mounty My faith in humanity has just been destroyed by being sucked up into a jet engine.
August 24, 201312 yr Author I figured out the offending entry in my FSUIPC. the problem is here [JoystickCalibration] AllowSuppressForPFCquad=Yes ExcludeThrottleSet=No ExcludeMixtureSet=Yes ExcludePropPitchSet=Yes SepRevsJetsOnly=No ApplyHeloTrim=No UseAxisControlsForNRZ=No FlapsSetControl=0 FlapDetents=No ReverserControl=66292 Reverser1Control=66422 Reverser2Control=66425 Reverser3Control=66428 Reverser4Control=66431 MaxThrottleForReverser=256 AileronTrimControl=66731 RudderTrimControl=66732 CowlFlaps1Control=66162 CowlFlaps2Control=66163 CowlFlaps3Control=66164 CowlFlaps4Control=66165 SteeringTillerControl=0 MaxSteerSpeed=60 Throttle1=-16384,-16384,-16193,16383 Throttle2=-16384,-16384,-10532,16383 Reverser=-16380,16380 Flaps=0,16380 Mixture1=-16384,-16384,-141,16383 Mixture2=-16384,-16384,2734,16383 PropPitch1=0,0,512,16380 PropPitch2=-16384,-16194,512,16383 Aileron=-16380,0,512,16380 Elevator=-16380,0,512,16380 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Not sure what this does Flaps=0,16380 It looks like it was setting internally some flap values where the aircraft think it has some flaps and so it does not go beyond certain speed. Is there some parameter like that.. I am sure there in the 737 ..Even the though the flap visual does not show there is flaps. I used bracketing to removed entries I deleted half the entries in FSUIPC and then figured out which half was giving me grief then put the offending half in and then divided that up further into two sets and eliminated the one half and kept doing this until I found the culprit. I need to test some more..but I am glad I got this sucker out. Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter
August 24, 201312 yr Glad you got it fixed, and very good of you to post the fix, alot of people forget to do that, it can help others later. I am also happy that you found that Autobrakes has nothing to do with this
August 24, 201312 yr Not sure what this does Flaps=0,16380 Flaps=0,16380 means two things: you have assigned an axis (joystick / hardware throttle or similar) for flap control only a part of this axis is assigned, as the normal range of this values is about -16380,16380 If you move your flap lever outside the assigned range, FSUIPC does not know how to interprete this and goes nuts. Just try to recalibrate your flap axis within FSUIPC and the prolbem should be gone... Frank Schrewe
August 24, 201312 yr This can cause problems with the spoiler axis as well. I had a spoiler axis left in for the Realair Legacy profile and could not stow the speed brakes with the switch. Almost crashed on final hehe. Brent Baker
August 24, 201312 yr Author d very good of you to post the fix, Yeah I try to make it a point to do that. Particularly for freaky problems. So many times I come looking for a thread with a solution for a problem and I would find it...There would be a long conversation where people are trying to help the individual and at the end I see one Post. "Thanks everyone..I got it fixed" and that's one of the most annoying and irritating post ever! Ha Ha! Tell us fella, what finally fixed your issue...so it would help others ..after all so many here tried to help you. The least you could do is, contribute, Yeah.. I am also happy that you found that Autobrakes has nothing to do with this LOL Yeah..some folks were having fun at my expense.. Tsk Tsk.. That ok..it helped by keeping my issue relevant.. So they did contribute. Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter
