RV8 analog panel

Featured Replies

Has anyone looked at the "Amperometer" in this panel?  The more load I add, the more the reading decreases..

Does not look right to me, but maybe I am confused.. 🙂

BTW, I have added a Flaps indicator to the analog panel.. contact me if interested..

The screenshot shows Flaps 9 degrees, which is correct, but I have now changed it to Flaps 10 / 20 / 40.

There is an update for this due out next week I believe. Apart from a few minor issues I'm very happy with it. It's the best of the Vans, I think.

Agree.

On buying the RV-8 I revisited the RV-14 (I've got the 10 but was mightily unimpressed) while still a nice plane the RV-8 showed me how much better it could be. Maybe they could give the 14 a tickle.

I've uninstalled the 14 now.  There is an update on the way for it I think, mainly for the G3X so I might have another look one day, but this one is pretty great.

SWS is revamping the interior on the 14, and of course, adding new G3X integration

The amp problem was a bug I pointed out during testing on the glass version, that they fixed right away. Could still be in the analog version, I'll let them know.

Nice mod for the flaps position!

I got an answer on the SWS Discord channel:

"The Ampmeter's code shows battery charging rate instead of power draw. If you see positive amps it means the battery is charging, while negatives that it is discharging."

Is anyone else having an issue with the TDS GTN 750 in the analog panel.  It defaults to the GNS530 and when I follow the instructions in the manual to switch, clicking on the CO warning light/button, the panel flashes the GTN but returns to the GNS 530.

Is there something that I am missing.I have both the RV8 Base and TDS GTN option activated in my community folder.

I figured out my issue.  I uninstalled and reinstalled into the default msfs community folder instead of my custom folder.  Now defaults to TDS GTN 750 instead of GNS 530.

Thanks,

Mike
