Haven't tried it but the developer does not encourage flying it in XP 12...

Jean-Luc blames the MSFS situation on the lack of access to the MSFS SDK. Let's see what happens with XP 12. Kdub

I use LINDA with the latest 350i on P3d 4.5 HF3. No problems. I'm a LINDA beginner. Just followed the instructions. Kdub

Kaby Lake RAM sweetspot
kaydub replied to Djang0's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
I can only supply my own story. When I built my Skylake PC, I bought 16GB of 3200 c16 on sale because I didn't think it made much difference and I was more interested in the faster CPU. My frame rates in KSEA were much faster but I had microstutters which I could only eliminate by lowering my scenery settings in FSX. I was not satisfied in my upgrade. I then bought some 3200 c14 and the improvement was very noticeable. I fly GA planes often VFR at lower altitudes and the stuttering is gone at the higher autogen and scenery settings. Kdub -
Using GoFlight Modules with Mitsubishi MU2 (Auto Pilot)
kaydub replied to Skyseek's topic in Flysimware Turboprop Aircraft
I have started mapping the autopilot to my GoFlight panel. You need to discover the Lvars that the MU-2 uses. It can be done, it just takes time. Kdub -
OK..I got my first phase of my cockpit done!
kaydub replied to Manny's topic in Home Cockpit Builders
Well, it turns out that 620x480 won't work in FSX. I was able to follow the above method using 1280x960 and produce excellent results. Whew! Kdub -
Increasing memory on networked machine invalidated license
kaydub replied to kaydub's topic in Pilot2ATC Users Forum
If I ever make another hardware upgrade, like when my noisy hard drive finally crashes, I will contact you. I enjoy the software and don't mind paying twice for it. Kdub -
So, I am running on a networked PC and I thought that I would try increasing my memory from 4 GB to 16 GB to eliminate the stuttering voices that I was experiencing. To my surprise Pilot2ATC viewed the increased memory as a new PC and refused to run without a new registration. With a new registration the application does indeed run much smoother. Kdub

I know that this is a stale topic, but I just encountered a problem with my DTA unit and it may help others to hear about this. So after three years I started experiencing screen flickering which made the GPS unusuable. The fact is DTA is no longer producing the 2450, I believe because the LCD screen is no longer in production. I was panicking because I really enjoy the unit. After some thought, I decided to use my nVidia control panel in Windows to set up the specified 620x480 resolution for the LCD and changed my fsx.cfg file to reflect this change. That solved the problem. The LCD is a 620x480 native resolution but Windows doesn't recognize this so using the nVidia control panel custon resolution menu is the only way to set this up correctly. A big sigh of relief for me. Kdub -
What about the database? is it the same as the GTN series? Kdub

I7 7700k
kaydub replied to westman's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
Yep. I don't worry about performance anymore. I worry about my overclocked CPU degrading because if it fails I can't replace it. The technology that I am on isn't available. If my motherboard fails I will have to buy memory, a motherboard and a cpu, and possibly a new OS if I can't get W7 to install. All for very little performance gain. Kdub -
I know that this was an old post, but I have successfully integrated the Flight1 EFD1000 into the A36 cockpit with the RealityXP GNS. Kaydub

I think it has been repaired, now. Kaydub

I'm an ARCADE helicopter pilot :-)
kaydub replied to jcomm's topic in The X-Plane General Discussions Forum
I've heard this about the AS 350, which is the reason that I have not bought it. The Bell is not as bad, so I hear, and I have the 407. I can say that it is controllable, but still lacks inertia in the roll axis. I like the 407, but I've given up on X-Plane because of these roll issues. I prefer to do precision hovering and if you look at the YouTube videos of the Dreamfoil 407, you can see that it is constantly rolling in even the best conditions. I'm back to FSX and the Dodo.

Hi all: I am wondering if the FMS popup for the UNS-1 works with FSUIPC mouse macros? The reason that I ask is that in anticipating the King Air release, I would like to know whether I will be able to use my cockpit hardware... Thanks, Kdub

The Flight1 does not require beta or any other manipulation to slow down on the approach. Flaps full and if you want to slow down in a hurry, full forward props does a good job. I normally land per the book, props at cruise setting to keep the noise down and full prop after touchdown...no problem to cross the threshold at 95 kts, even at almost gross. Kdub

Just flew it "home" to KBFI. 31L on the G1000 was flawless, ATC asked for 180 knots up to LACKR because of a fast mover behind me. Intercepted the GS, pushed full props, approach flaps @ 170 knots followed by gear and then full flaps at 500 feet, crossed threshold at 96 knots and touched down just past the numbers and made second turnoff to clear runway for the heavy on final. It is a beautiful bird if you like G1000 King Airs. It is not a Proline model, and I am running an i7 at 4.8 with a GTX 780. Really, folks, if you want a King Air now, you should get this one. Rudder boost, prop governor, starter only to clear fuel from an engine that didn't light, generator switches with reset, engine anti-ice, autofeather...the list goes on! If these features mean nothing to you, well, try it! You may like it.

I had a very satisfying flight tonight. KFHR to KGEG. 295 knots TAS nice transition to RWY 21 and NO problems with any aspect of the flight. A very nice plane, IMHO. I'm an F1 B200 fan for sure. Kdub
