Hi, I just bought the tq6 throttle quadrant and I,m looking for good GA twinprops, and I,been thinking in download again the bn-2 islander. Is there any test or somebody who managed to installed it into p3d v3?

For my purposes BN2 works fine in P3D 3.5 19475. Don't know about the TQ. (I use Saitek). I also cannot confirm how well the standard GPS works as I use Flight1 GTN 650 instead.

 

Still a favourite in the hanger, gets as much flightime as the Legacy.

Thank you very much. I will give it a try today. Happy flights.

The Islander works mostly well in P3D v3. However, I could never get the FMC to work.

When dragging older FSX aircraft into P3D; if not having previously installed FSX on the PC then install the three FSX simconnect versions found in the redist folder:

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\redist\Interface\FSX-RTM\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi

C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\redist\Interface\FSX-SP1\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi

C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\redist\Interface\FSX-SP2-XPACK\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi

FMC not functioning could also be a missing dll in the xml.dll file. Worth checking out.

 

I haven't used the Islander since getting the Twin Otter Extended, but that's how I got the A2A aircraft working in P3D.

It's handy to have an unused copy of FSX to install them into to see what's added.
