I seem to also have an issue with the navigation radios for VOR and ADF. I cannot turn them on. Is anyone else having this problem?

if you go to the clipboard and click on ready for flight, they should all be on.

I haven't been following the checklists, but I will start to do so. A question: if you load the aircraft it comes up on the runway engines running, so I had assumed this is the pre-takeoff configuration and the radios would all be on. Evidently this was a bad assumption.

I have tested the new update but I will try to do it today and I can report to redwing if this is the case. 

Just downloaded latest patch. Connie runs under DX12. There is new option for flight engineer you can check it but it doesn't seem do anything. Started cold and dark no problem. 

P.S. I deleted previous installation and downloaded new one and reinstalled 

 

Downloaded the latest version.  Takes off OK but clipboard is completely blank.

Did you uninstall older version before installing new one?

Figured out the problem. I was in Developer Mode (having previously flown the PMDG DC6 and selected “Use NanoVg for XML gauges” from the Options bar which greatly improves the FPS for that aircraft).) Switched back from DV Mode and all is well.

I am really enjoying this plane. But some more feedback: the wing flaps do not seem to be working. They do not respond to the lever in the cockpit, nor to the keyboard assignment. No movement of the wing flap gauge, and checked from outside. The flaps stay up no matter what you do to the lever.

The flaps work okay for me.

I am still not getting smoke on startup.

You have to download them separately from their website. They are not in the default packages.

I quit the flight and reloaded the sim, and the flaps work OK now. On the previous flight I did a lot of working on the switches on the FE panel, and wonder if I accidently turned the flaps off? Would that be possible?
