No CTDs in the last 2 months. I have not really changed anything in my setup. I suspect the CTDs I experienced in the past were tied to a particular default scenery and/or approach.

Just finished the same flight, this time to RNAV rwy 29 instead of RNAV rwy 17l. No CTD, everything worked perfectly.

I flew the same route and approach with a different aircraft today and got the same CTD at about the same time and location. I'm thinking a default scenery error? RAM, VRAM, CPU and GPU all checked ok. Will try again later with a different approach

I have had about 3 CTDs out of a dozen flights since SU12. Any advice would be appreciated System: I7=9700K GPU Geforce RTX 2070 Super MB MSI 2390 16 GB RAM CTD happens about 40 minutes into flight.

Thanks! I will check AI assists Dale

I checked all my devices, including the keyboard, and could not find a binding issue. I emptied the community folder, deleted the 337, and restarted MSFS. Re-installed the 337. Still having the extreme pitch up problem. All the default and other Carenado aircraft work normally. Thanks for the suggestions, just haven't found the problem yet. Dale

The autopilot indicates that it is off, but it does act like it is on. I will check all the bindings on my devices plus any assignments on FSUIPC. Thanks, Dale

I'm having pitch control problems with the Carenado 337. At rotation speed it pitches up and no amount of forward pressure on the yoke will force the nose down. Both engines operating normally, full prop pitch and mixture, autopilot off, Trim is checked at takeoff setting, 1/2 tank of fuel, cg in limits Yoke assignment checked, elevator appears to be working in outside view All other aircraft, including Carenado, are working normally Any suggestions would be most welcome

Same here

I think you may be on to something. I make my flight plans using Lil Nav, then import to MSFS. I'll experiment with staying away from J routes. Dale

On a flight from KSAV to KJAX, IFR victor airways, default scenery, default Baron, ATC instructs me to climb to FL 280! The fllight plan was filed for 6000 ft. I tried requesting a lower cruising altitude, but was denied. Finally cancelled IFR, and proceeded VFR. Is this a problem with the scenery or with ATC? I miss the old Radar Contact ATC. Dale

Thanks! I found 2 files for the PA44 (one appeared to be compacted). I deleted both and downloaded again, and it worked.

I tried to download the latest Carenado PA44 update in the MSFS Marketplace. It seemed to download ok, but then hung up on "decompressing". I tried deleting the aircraft and did a fresh download. It shows the aircraft as installed, latest version, but when I try to select the PA44, it's not there. Now I can't delete the aircraft and try again. Any ideas?

I have been flying IFR in P3D4, using Radar Contact, an old program, no longer supported. RC4 is by no means perfect, but seems far more realistic to me than MSFS 2020. When RC4 assigns an approach, it gives you the ILS frequency and gives you the option to take vectors to the final approach or to fly the full approach. The voices are mechanical sounding and there is no support for taxi or VFR flight. What's needed is the best of RC4 combined with the MSFS ATC.

Thanks again Ray, your suggestion solved the problem.

Thanks, Ray. I will try that on my next flight

Just recently, I started getting FSS weather at the same time as RC4 weather. This happens at the start of a flight and also when I leave the frequency to get weather at around 50 mile from the destination. All other ATC communications are normal I am using P3d4, Win 10, Active Sky. Any ideas on how to silence the FSS weather?

Received a reply from Carenado regarding my ticket on the F1GTN - they say it will be corrected in the next release. Dale

That works! Thanks Dale

Did my second flight today, I noticed during the climb with the autopilot engaged and in VS mode, I could only adjust the vs down, not up. This was with the 2d pop-up or on the console. IAS mode seemed to work ok. The rocker switch is labeled "up" or "down", but either gives a negative value. This is on P3Dv4.5. Frame rates were much better on this second flight.

On my second flight, the frame rates were good. Must have had something running in the background on the first flight.

I was probably at 90 to 95% torque.

My brief flight was smooth enough, I just noticed that my frame rates were around 45 fps. This was at a regional airport with minimal traffic and default weather and scenery. Under these conditions, I typically get around 60 fps with other Carenado aircraft, like the Fokker F50.

Shift 7 brings up the engine/system setup, Only problem - when I select 1,2,3,& 4 (ready to taxi), the engines start, but all the instruments go blank. If I go back to Shift 7 and select 5, ready to takeoff, all the gauges come back on. Dale

Just downloaded it. Only had time for a quick flight around the pattern. Installed the F1 GTN - shows up as a 2d pop-up but the panel just has a black screen Seems a bit heavier on frame rates than my other Carenado aircraft Seems somewhat over powered, but I only had 1 pilot and 50% fuel. Usual Carenado excellent visuals inside and out Dale
