CS B757-200-III PW2040 Tweak

Featured Replies

Hi,

Been running through the CS B757-200-III PW2040 flows. Was impressed with how MCE handled this one out of the box.

"both stab trim cutout switches to normal" doesn't seem to do anything. That's the command out of the box. Maybe there's another command I'm not aware of?

William seems to sometimes trip up a bit with setting speed, heading and altitude. Tends to be a long drawn out process and most times he misses the setting by a click or two. I'm guessing this is more to do with developer coding than MCE. Just thought I'd mention it. Not a big problem.

As an aside, the developer here seems to have focused more on eye candy than tuning flight characteristics and other key functions.

Could be caused by changes made to aircraft.

There is no SDK for any Captain Sim aircraft. Will do our best.

Is this with the most recent version released a few days ago?

Don't worry about. It's not a great plane and I don't fly it that much. It's good enough especially if there's no SDK. You did a great job on it.

The lack of SDK isn't an issue for us and we have already interfaced almost all their fleet (except C130 "Hercules"). You just need deep knowledge of the FSX/Prepar3D SDK, something others aren't willing to learn and claim it's impossible to do without aircraft maker providing an SDK.

What I meant is that when the aircraft itself is updated, it's not uncommon to have to rework some parts of the interface.

We try to treat all aircraft devs the same way (provide a well trained crew for their planes).And not everyone can afford a US$ 130 add-on for a single aircraft.

 Unless those mis-dialings were a one off and very rare, will be looked at after Christmas.
