Gentlemen ,I have noted a big difference between the size of gauges file of the 737NG for FS2002 and FS2004For FS2002 the size is 13849 Kb and for FS2004 is 3474 KB.Is that correct or something is wrong with the gauges file of the FS2004 ?Thanks and regardsAlberto Kunzel

Gentlemen ,I bought 737-600/700 and 737-800/900 without any problem , after that I installed the 737-600/700 , did some flights and everything was OK.So , I tried to install the 737-800/900 after initiate the wizard I received an warning saying that I should have 737-600/700 purchased and installed before to attempt to install the 737-800/900 , but I have the 737-600/700 installed.Someone knows what is the problem and how to solve that ?Thanks and regardsAlberto Kunzel

Gentlemen ,I am building a home cockpit based on PMDG 737 and had to create a new window with FSpanel in order to have in copilot panel the PFD and ND.All is working nice except that the speed strip in PFD of the main panel is moving quicker than the strip of the copilot panel.What I have to do in order I get both moving at same speed?Also , when I try to install the 737-800/900 I get an warning saying that I must have a 737-600/700 installed , but I have the 737-600/700 installed.thanks and regardsAlberto Kunzel

Gentlemen,My flight default nowadays is locking the FS9 at the presentation screen , this way I cannot change my flight default by another one , I have no access to the screen where I can change it.My question is where I have access to do that ? any cfg ?Thanks and regardsAlberto Kunzel

Gentlemen ,I use several monitors with MSFS ,After installation of PMDG 737-700 I tried to put the OH panel in one monitor and keep the main panel in another monitor for my surprise when I put the OH to another monitor the main panel disapeared and returned only when I closed the OH panel.How I could keep OH panel in one monitor and the main panel in another one ?Thanks and regardsAlberto Kunzel

Gentlemen ,I am sending attached what I will do to my cockpit .As I am Mechanical Engineer I play a lot with mechanicals .From the drawing you can see that I will use one wheel,one spring ,one small bar thread ,one porca ,one electric motor (DC ) and one R/C servo .The idea is very simple , the Servo will follow the air speed of the aircraft and will turn on and off the electric motor ,more speed the spring will be more compressed and the friction between the wheel and the part A will increase , and vice-versa .Mechanically speaking, as the nut is fixed when the Electric motor run it slide up and down and the spring is decompressed or compressed respectively .The same system will be done for yoke concernig the aileron .Regards.Alberto Kunzel

>Would be nice if someone could write an app to allow the FS>guages themselves to be run remotely.Hi You can use Wideview ( www.wideview.it ).For your information I use it with two PCs , in one PC ,the powerfull ,I have a PCI-E card and a projector for front view , only scenery. In the other PC I have six(6) video cards and six (6) monitors for panels , Wideview does the link between the two PCs.Very easy and inexpensive .RegadsAlberto Kunzel

The client PC handle only the scenery , this way we can maximise all sliders , and have good fps and no stutters .Wideview is not expensive , it is a great software .RegardsAlberto Kunzel

The best 737-400 we have in our hobby ,everything is simulated .As this 737-400 was originally delivered for FS2002 I use it in my server PC and in the client I use FS2004.The reason for this FS configuration is very simple , I fly normally with scenaries of my country ( Brazil), we have excellent scenaries produced by our people for FS2004 , the DF737-400 for FS 2002 is wonderfull , so to fly this set is really outstanding.My next step is add IOCARDS , as I use a keyboard hacked system ,which work very nice but I thing that with IOCARDS I will improve the system.Any question let me know.RegardsAlberto Kunzel

>>Hi George ,>>>>Thank you . I will try the Feelthere .>>>>Best regards>>>>Alberto Kunzel>>Or try the Level-D 767-300ER.
