Can’t Get Maddox X EFB To Display Lbs (stays kilos)

Featured Replies

Just recently started playing again with the Maddog and only yesterday with liveries. Now I can’t get the EFB to use pounds, but the load manager and plane are using pounds. 

I’ve set pounds in the load manager and it’s weight and balance shows correctly in pounds but the EFB remains kilos. Anyone have experience or insight?  I’m stumped. 

TIA,

🤔. I remember there was an issue with the tail number in MSFS. It would throw off settings such as pounds vs weights. If it's not set to the livery tail number in the load manager, it would do weird things. Not sure if it's your case, but just blank out the tail number in MSFS. So pick the MADDOG within MSFS, click liveries, select the one you want and make sure the tail number is blank. Give that a try.

I just flew it in LBS and didn't have a problem.  In the maddogx "App"/installer, on the first option you have to selected LBS.  You also have to go into the a/c options on the "App" and change it to LBS.  There are 2 locations in the "App" that need to be updated to LBS.  

Also, after you make the change in the "App" you have to re-start the sim.

Thank you to those that responded. I think it was a combination of adding the livery/tail number vector and perhaps a missed config in LM? 😎

Either way, I uninstalled and reinstalled with an eye towards this topic and full functionality is restored. Case closes
