February 22, 200719 yr Hi all,Can anyone tell me whether co-pilot 3.5 for FSX is compatible with radar contact 4.3 for FSX? I have used a lot of flight planners including some very popular ones but radar contact gives me differing vectors from the flight plan i created and installed in RC. So can anyone tell me whether radar contact works with co-pilot 3.5?ThanksKelvin
February 22, 200719 yr Commercial Member what vectors are you speaking of? you're always going to get rc vectors within approach, regardless of what planner you use.you are also going to get vectors within departure, assuming it isn't a departure procedureany planner that saves files in fs9/fsx .pln file format will work with rc.jd JD Read my blog
February 22, 200719 yr HelloI have Copilot for fs9 but its flightplan output is only compatable with its own included GPS, the plans wont even load into the default GPS.this is a real shame as its other functions are usefull.I use Flightsim Commander 7.7 which works fine with RC
February 22, 200719 yr Sorry i mustn't have made myself clear. When i create a flightplan in, say, fsbuild and load it in RC, the course and heading are different than where RC sends me. I cannot follow my flightplan because RC always tells me i need to get back on the correct heading...which isn't what is in my flightplan.Regards,Kelvin
February 22, 200719 yr Commercial Member in departure?in enroute?in approach?departure and approach decide where you go, not your flight plan. enroute shouldn't be a problem.if you can duplicate the problem, follow the directions at the top of the forum, generate a log. IMPORTANT, click debug before loading the .plnthen send me the .logjd JD Read my blog
February 22, 200719 yr Enroute headings to waypoints in flight plan are not synchronous with RC even thought the same flight plan has been loaded into RC and FSX. This is when using fsbuild, fscommander, and fs default planner.
February 22, 200719 yr Commercial Member those are all supported planners, and i'd say close to everyone that uses radar contact uses one of them (throw fsnavigator in there as well). so follow the previous troubleshooting suggestions i made earlier. be sure to click debug BEFORE you load your .plnthen send me the .logi'll figure out what is going wrongjd JD Read my blog
February 23, 200719 yr ok thanks JD. I must say that everytime i have created a flight i have not used debug, what does this do when i hit debug? (as for replicating my issue i will follow this up next flight).Kelvin
February 23, 200719 yr Commercial Member i only need the log when something is messed up on your machine, or there is something wrong with your .pln's or something is amiss in your flying.i can figure it out from the .logjd JD Read my blog
