  1. The V3 installer suggests to install in C:\RealAir So I understand it needs to install outside of P3Dv3 folders. But does it need to be C drive because I have that drive dedicated to my OS and other drives for FS stuff. Could it be the drive on which also P3Dv3 resides but as long as it sit outside of P3D?
  2. Mmmm...I do have an issue with the trim gauge in the air. Both needles standing upright and not moving while in the air. It is functioning on the ground though.
  3. Judging from the reply on the items about hydraulics and the emergency brake it seems that there's some confusion. Either on the developers part or on my part... :smile: In the FlightSafety Learjet 30 series pilot trainings manual we can read on page 13-2/13-3: So my guess is that when initiating the LJ35A in the sim and I notice that after switching on BAT 1 the Hydraulic Pressure gauge reads "0" value I should flip the HYD PUMP switch to electrically start the auxiliary hydraulic pump to get at least 1,250 psi pressure to (de)activate the parking brake in order to start the engines. That's not possible right now. Secondly the LOW HYD light should go out at any value equal or greater than 1,250 psi. After I started the engines the mechanical driven hydraulics pumps take over to provide hydraulic pressure. But when I switch the HYD PUMP switch to the OFF position: 1. the LOW HYD lights comes immediately on, which is incorrect it should some on below 1,125 psi 2. after a few seconds the pressure drops to zero which is incorrect. Pressure should drop very slowly when no hydraulically driven systems are used. From the manual page 13-4: After starting the first engine in the sim the HYDRAULIC PRESSURE indicator gauge shows 2,500 psi (max psi) which is incorrect. Also the behaviour of the parking brake after flipping the HYD PUMP switch to the OFF position is incorrect. Although it is correct that hydraulic pressure is declining slowly, the parking brake will loose it's grip after some time and the AC should be able to roll after a while (unless properly chocked). This is not modelled correctly. So my request is that since Flysimware is known for their system fidelity, please model the auxiliary pump function of the HYD PUMP switch while engines (and for that matter mechanically driven pumps are off) are not started. Furthermore with regard to the Emergency Brake which is not functioning in the sim LJ35A and which is not a kind of parking brake as suggested in the reply of Flysimware. From the above mentioned manual from page 14-12; My request is to correctly model it's function. I guess it could be modelled as kind of parking brake which uses air (so the emergency air bottle gauge should be affected as well) From the manual (14-15):
  4. Okay got a quick email back from Flysimware:
  5. (Re)Read the post of BeaverDriver above.
  6. Can you confirm that the gauge works /not working on the ground. I have it working on the ground with primary trim.
  7. Seriously? There's already a thread about this issue. This is just cluttering the forum...
  8. Yep. But maybe I'm understanding your issue wrong. What I notice with regard to trim in v1.2 switch to prim: yoke button/sim controls are working correctly. On the ground also the console trim monitor gauge is working correctly. In the air I did not notice the needles moving on the gauge while trimming. switch to sec.: sim buttons are working (sim buttons work indepently of switchology in the cockpit) also secondary trim switch works/MACH TRIM warning sign lights up red. The Lear needs a lot of working the trim while flying and changing flight regimes (slowing, accelerating turning, climbing etc). Rob :smile:
  9. Hi there, First of all let me be clear that I love the Lear period. After some familarization flights I think I noticed the following item/issues: auxiliary hydraulic pressure pump not operating with engines off. So no hydraulic pressure when initializing AC. The decrease rate of hydraulics is way too fast. Because when pressure is not used (by e.g. parking/brakes or other flight controls the rate of pressure decrease should be very slow). The build up of pressure is way too fast after swtitching the hydraulic pump with engines running and too high value. Spoileron reset not working (not even as dummy switch) Encode ALT XFER not working (not even dummy switch) The aircraft slowly creeps forward while idling (when parking brake not engaged). Emergency brake not operating at all. Although Anti skid is activated the tyres are locking while braking (outside view) NAV/GPS switch has no clicksound Alerter NIGHT/DAY switch has no textures. Nice to notice that the spoileron system is working perfectly! Thanks very much, Rob de Vries NB this message is also send by email to the developer.
  10. No problem here with trim in v1.2
  11. read the manual (14-12 in the Flight safety Learjet 30 series Pilot Training Manual: http://www.amazon.com/Learjet-30-Pilot-Training-Manual-ebook/dp/B00Y5UTS2C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1447409526&sr=8-1&keywords=learjet+series+30&pebp=1447409524204&perid=075GJDGK3AZMVFBGTQ99) press the small white steering lock button on the center pedestal to engage it permanently (it switches off automatically when going faster than 30 knot's) or the orange button left side of the yoke to engage it temporarily map it to your tailhook command. Menu>Options>Settings>Controls>Buttons and Keys
  12. No too bright. About time they implement Lotus style lights. Would suit these great birds well
  13. Can we keep this on topic please. Read e.g. AirdailyX for news regarding the relaese. It is of poor taste to ask about releases of other developers in a Flysimware forum in a support thread.
  14. Yes map it to the tailhook command. I had no problem activating it. Although it's a bit wonky.
  15. Same here: Testing in day situation. VAS when starting at e.g. PAYA is around 2.2Gb. When selecting the Lear, it drops to 1.1Gb in an instant. Looking around in cockpit and going outside view, it drops to 800MB. Flying around for around 15-20 minutes it drops to 220MB with the dreaded beeping from my system and OOM. Love the plane, but VAS usage is a bit on the heavy side. System: I7 3770 at 4.3Ghz 16MB RAM Gforce GTX 970 4GBVRAM Win10/FSX ACC
  16. Well Lukasz I never had any trouble with it and it's the best we have within the confines of FSX. Which one do you pick: a glas half empty or a glas half full :wink:
  17. Yep I know. I posted there as well. Thanks! That solved it.
  18. Well as I read this thread at OrbX forum (http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/103205-vector-frozen-water-question/) It seems that it is turned off (and can't be turned on) by design (workaround)?
  19. Frozen water feature in winter not working? The setting "Frozen Water" does not seem to (s)tick in the Vector Config tool. P3Dv3 and Vector V1.3 installed with P3Dv3 installer. Also Global and OpenLC NA CANAK (all with the P3Dv3) installer.
  20. Is this a Navigraph data glitch or something in the G1000? It's the PAHO (Homer) Rwy4 LOC approach (Phenom v1.3/Navigraph extension v1.2 with latest airac)
  21. Thanks Ray, I'm looking forward to your review! Together with Andre Herd and Zane Gard in the old days you belong to my favorite reviewers
