Q400 Pushback does not work

Featured Replies

  • Commercial Member

I have made several unsuccessful attempts to get the push-back initiated using the Q400 (and yes, I have attempted using any other aircraft which work as they should).  Attached is a video showing the issue that I am having.  I have also made adjustments to the aircraft offsets to make the nose gear connection as close as possible, still no luck.

Any ideas?

From the FAQ:

Problem: The Majestic Dash 8 won't move when pushed back.

Solution: It's a known issue.  There's a method to unfreeze the Dash 8's flight model, but that system is incompatible with UGCX.  We're working on a fix.

I didn't test with the Q400, but some others had the exact issue.

Possibly reaching out to the MJC development group might be  of some help....guess I'll put this aside until fixed, lots of potential though.

Cheers

The MJC Dash 8 is very different from any other FS plane.

UGCX injects speeds into the aircraft to push it, but we can't do that can't do that in the Dash 8 (even if we freeze it... we've spoken to the MJC developer about this).

We'll have to use a different method to pushback the Dash 8.  We know what that method is.  It's just a matter of slotting it into an update.

Cheers,

 

 

np I know the mjc is very different so i wait for the update.

kind regards
