January 28, 20251 yr Hi folks, Cross-posting this here in the off chance someone has seen this before (the non-MSFS A2A forums see very little activity these days). I'm trying to setup an Air Manager panel for the A2A C182, and I'm having trouble with the manifold pressure / fuel flow gauge. The A2A L:Eng1_ManifoldPressure and L:Eng1_GPH LVars seem to update once, but with garbage values (ie: 0.000295 inHg and 1.0 GPH, respectively). Other A2A C182-specific LVars are updating just fine (regular intervals, sane values). I can see updates on the standard SimConnect variables ENG MANIFOLD PRESSURE:1 and ENG FUEL FLOW GPH:1, but the values for these determined by the sim are on some other scale / unit of measurement / entirely wrong (perhaps computed internally by P3D, but based on different piston engine characteristics). Anyone seen this before? I poked around in the panel XML files (code_c182t_m.xml and code_c182t_r.xml) for the A2A C182, and I can't really determine where the manifold pressure and fuel flow LVars originate from, how they're computed, etc.
January 29, 20251 yr Author This is actually looking more like an Air Manager vs. P3Dv5 problem; during subsequent testing, the problem randomly spread to other A2A LVars (that were consistently working properly before). The SPAD.neXt data monitor shows correct values/updates; the Air Manager Data Viewer does not:
