Autopilot issue is fixed with latest hot fix. I was able to finally do a full flight with the CRJ. It's fun but certainly not used to having to constantly be watching my speed. Def different. 

When you say the AP issue is fixed, do you mean you can now get it to engage as long as you're following FD guidance, even if you don't have the aircraft precisely trimmed?

AP: Sensitivity for autopilot disconnect feature due to aileron, elevator or rudder input decreased to avoid unwanted disconnects with unprecise control hardware

 

when aircraft banks either left ore right in a turn ,it is not smooth it slides from one position to the next until the full turn is achieved, what could be the problem?

I have asked on aerosoft forum but will ask here as well how do you save restore a flight does not seem to work . Even panel reload does not fill all back in especially the fmc. Any got this to work.

I noticed this to!  It starts to bank then almost levels off then starts to bank again.  

Here is a great thread over at AS with tips and real world techniques from a RW pilot.  Some great pointers especially about managing descent.

New update to CRJ released (1.0.05)

 

Rev 251 / 1.0.0.5

- [Fixed] FMS: Radio page now accepts COM frequencies with less than 3 decimal places (i.e. 122.8 instead of 122.800)
- [Fixed] FMS: Can not enter a direct airway after a SID ending with a (VECT) leg
- [Fixed] FMS: Auto-sequencing after SID or before STAR
- [Fixed] FMS: Long directs now following the line
- [Fixed] AP: FD commanding additional bank angle shortly before reaching selected heading in HDG HOLD when AP is off
- [Added] DAVE: New aircraft state "Turnaround" to simulate aircraft state after the first flight of the day
- [Fixed] FMS: Multiple improvements in SID and STAR tracking
- [Fixed] MFD: Radius to Fix drawing routine
- [Fixed] MFD: Course/Heading to Intercept Next Leg drawing routine
- [Fixed] General: Improved loading and saving of aircraft state with a flight
- [Fixed] Improved flaps extension/rectraction effects

- [Fixed] FMS: Error in the calculation of the number of pages on the ARRIVAL page
- [Fixed] FMS: De-selecting a STAR now also clears the STAR to enroute transition
- [Fixed] 2D MCDUs are now resizable and should no longer have issues with mixed resolution setups (4K + 1080)
- [Fixed] FMS: STARs with multiple STAR->Approach transitions are now show the correct available runways
- [Fixed] FMS: FMS keyboard input is now stopped while modal P3D dialog windows (for example Go To Airport) are open
- [Fixed] HGS: FPV and flight director source data dampening (less jittering)
- [Fixed] FMS: A CTD when entering a runway that doesn't have an opposite end in the nav data (i.e. EDDF Rwy 18)
- [Fixed] FMS: SID waypoints are now inserted in the correct order if the STAR has been selected before the departure runway and SID
- [Fixed] FMS: Switching the runway no longer causes the STAR to be reset to start
- [Fixed] Gear: Reduced the brake cooldown times during flight (gear retracted)
- [Fixed] MFD: Removed overlapping HDG bug digital indication

I'm not sure there's a fix for that one! ;)

Scratch my original post, update is not yet online...

I just don't get it.

Well I do, too many people jumping straight into flying 737's before they can even manage a Cessna.

I agree. I just purchased it and am wondering what all the fuss is all about. The systems modeling in this is very good and compares to any other FS aircraft. What else do people want...? I think my only complaint would be the low def VC but I can live with it.

Shez

In an a/c like the CRJ that uses a FMS but does not have an autothrottle (I think this is the case for the CRJ in the RW as well), am I correct that the FMS still provides target airspeed info to meet, for example, a waypoint airspeed restriction or to meet descent or climb requirements, and it is just up to the pilot to manage the throttles accordingly? Is there an associated airspeed display somewhere to let the pilot know if the a/c is meeting the FMS airspeed target?

Thx,

Al.

So what?  It's flight simulation, therefore people can do whatever they want to do.  If some simmers are happy flying "auto everything", so be it.

Fine. Then don't start complaining about lack of 'auto' when the real aircraft doesn't have 'auto'.

Personally, I don't see any satisfaction in trying to run before you can walk.
