October 23, 200520 yr Author I really like the airplane, I think it is best offering yet from CS...Though I agree with others that the electrical system is a buggy mess, at this point, with no ability to use external power or to power the AC busses at all when the ATM is used. I installed the CIVA INS (our Coast Guard Hercs have a very similar INS installed, I've noticed during my flights, though I'm not sure it is the exact type model). Obviously, we fly long flights over water so VOR/ADF won't cut it... I can't get it to power up at all. CIVA made it so it needs clean AC power from an APU or external source. So with the electrical bugs, it's not getting it. Would like to hear from anyone who has been successful with this. Also, I find the IAS function pitches the airplane uncontrollably, hunting the airspeed. The pitch function on the autopilot works exceptionally well, so I stick with that. Anyone have any luck with that?thankschris conklinHonolulu
