Thanks for that, Ray. Regrettably do not not have P3Dv3. Have a licence for it but moved on since to v4..

Patience is a virtue, so if I have waited for a heap of others, am sure can wait for it to be updated to v4.1

If you have the licence then install it Rick. There won't be a v4 Concorde for some time yet.

The trim controls are there, not under cover..

Little aircraft symbols next to them that move.

Thanks Bert. Must have been the only things I didn’t click! :biggrin:

I’ve found another problem. Those of us who have GoFlight radio modules can use them to change COM and NAV frequencies. However the ADF does not respond. You have to use that fiddly control and then switch from Standby to Active. Dreadful control with hundreds, tenths, units and decimal places. Uurrgghh.

Is there an official forum where I can report these things. Similar problem with parking brake which is covered by the throttle when fully retracted and doesn’t respond to CTRL+Period.

Thanks. I’ve raised a ticket over the p/b and ADF issues.

Proper technique would be aileron to keep wings level, the aileron trim to relieve the pressure on the controls.Then rudder to keep the plane coordinated. Rudder trim to relieve the rudder pressure once all is configured. Many aircraft require trim adjustments with power changes especially those with large powerful propellers.

Thanks Kerry. How nice to hear from you after so many years. Do you remember me and Dave Trantham visiting you back in ‘98? Hope life is good for you in Charlotte. :smile:

Not sure why your controls would not work.. the ADF radio uses standard FS variables..

But if you would like a popup ADF to try, where you can use the mouse wheel on individual digits.. edit your panel.cfg file  (back up first)

Open and close with shift+7

Hi Ray,

Of course I remember. It was a really fun afternoon. I'm no longer in Charlotte. Been in Savannah Georgia since 2007. If you ever find yourself in this part of the world again be sure to let me know. It would be nice to get together again!

@Bert Pieke, thanks for the code. I did double-check the ADF and it's definitely not reacting to the value I set on the GoFlight GF166 unit. I have logged a ticket with Carenado. Let's see what they say.

@GACSavannah, thanks for the invite Kerry. It's unlikely I'll be visiting the US but if I do and I'm in your area I'll certainly let you know.
