FSS announce Super 727 expansion pack

Featured Replies

I bought expansion.. Instaregret 😞 Documentation is minimal. I figured how set up FMS but nav source is locked on VOR1. GPS/NAV switch does nothing. TCAS switch inop. Terrain switch inop...I don't know why in the world i gave FSS another chance. 😞

Sorry for your bad experience, I was really looking forward to this expansion. I didn’t even know it was already released.

Did anyone of you succeed in managing the key bindings - especially for the pitch/vertical speed/indicated air speed wheel?
 

There is some mentioning in the manual but I absolutely do not get it (my fault).

How can I get the wheel functions on my streamdeck?
 

There are also listed lot of „LVARs“ in the manual - unfortunately I do not find any of the „FSS_B727…“ vars if I try to filter them in Axxes and Ohs.

Difficult question but perhaps I am lucky and there are some people who understand my point…

Hi experts,

how do I copy my beloved Olympic and Lufthansa liveries pax versions over to the expansion?

I added them to the aircraft.cfg and copied the folders but they do not show ingame.

Thanks

You most likely need to regenerate the layout.json file.

You should read the minimal documentation at least minimally. There is a very helpful procedure guide describing setting the NAV source and lot more.

What make you assume that I didn't read doc? I actually file the ticket with FSS and its been acknowledged.

Have anyone tried the new expansion in 2024 SU4 Beta? I cannot get them to load.

Sorry, I apologize - I was a little bit grumpy that evening.

Picked this up.  In the raw its pretty cool and the bigger engines help some.  Its still a lead sled for the most part but it does climb out slightly better and you can get to a higher altitude better.  Also seems to reach a faster cruising speed sooner over the regular 727 but its no fighter jet that is for sure!

Systems wise I am finding some bizarre issues (FS2024).  Granted I did not even look for a manual so take my issues with a grain of salt but so far I can't find a work around.  I can't seem to get the AP to track my route using the NAV button.  It says its engaged but nothing ever happens and it just flies the course last set in the HDG mode.  I tried the GPS switch both ways but no difference.  Also I can't seem to adjust my climb speed manually.  I should be able to hit some toggle button somewhere and either lower the nose or raise the nose.  It seems like its on some sort of preset.  The Nose Up and Nose Down switches on the steering wheel don't seem to do anything. 

I think overall its pretty cool but will need a few patches before its better I think.  I am also not ruling out user error to some degree.  It has a rinky dink but updated cockpit with a much newer AP but still rinky dink.

So far I am not ruling out user error but so far I have not found any work around.  My inaugural flight in this plane in PAE-ANC flying some fishing gear to Alaska in the Custom Air Transport default livery. 

I am now getting some sort of beeping and some sort of flashing "E" warning in the glass display by just simply going to an external view and coming back to the cockpit.  I can't seem to find a way to turn off that warning.  

I "THINK" I might have found away to adjust my vertical speed since the AP turning knob on the new AP below the throttles also moves forward and aft.  However I won't know until I try messing with it when I descend into ANC.  

 

Started my descent in ANC.  Yes I am happy to report the circular knob thing below the throttles helps adjust your climb speed.  So I am happy I figured that function out.  However I never got it to track my flight plan the entire trip so this will take more figuring out.
