As Long as original users delete the "sold" software I see no reason why it should cause any significant issues. Using the second hand car analagy you would not expect the same support as if you were the original owner !!! Maybe I am missing something here perhaps? This would actually make it more likely to buy new versions of software as I have had the experience with the previous one so that should positively affect producers . Brian Harrison ( UK)

Thanks Bob, I have emailed them,cheers, Brian

Bob, thanks for info re psu. I will go and get a new one as this is as old as the original (circa 2005) and may well be issue as you state. If i cannot get 3.5 amp I will get the next available higher one ..thanks for your assistance,Brian HPS what size is the power connector , I have found several psus, mostly 5a 12 v but all have a 2.1mm connector. Is this right or will I need to butcher an old psu I have which has the correct connector???

Yes, all axes. I have the flight controls filtered box ticked . but I will have another play around with the pfc/fsuipc configs today.cheers, Brian

Hi Tom, just installed new pfc board (Rev C) still get stutters on all axes tho !! also now have reduced range on aileron axis only ( 64-127) rather than 0-127 . Anyone else had this issue??Brian Harrison

Thanks Tom. Just installed it and things are better with far less jitter. Have ordered the latest upgrade to the cct board on the throttle controller which has all chips soldered in place as opposed to mine where several are socketed and thus can work slightly loose over a period of time. I'll let you know how it goes.cheers Brian

PS Tom, what settings do you use on the serial card - Default ofr other ?cheers Brian

Only one I'm not that keen on is 900. A bit unwieldy but I suppose its just learning the individual nuances . On balance the 800 currently wins but still like 700 and 600. Need a lot more practice with them yet.Brian H

Thanks Tom, Just been on Amazon and ordered one - here's to a non twitchy system again. ( Just realised that this did start when new pc plus an in-line serial-usb adaptor was used !! Must be getting senile not to associate it !!!! )cheers, Brian

Tom, What was the serial interface card please? My pc only has pcie slots on the mobo .cheers BrianH

Thanks Simeon, I have replaced all pots on joystick and rudder but not throttle yet as this will need a strip down of the throttle console which will have to wait til I get an upgraded controller boardMy throttle console is about 10 years old! and has had heavy usage as well , but I did try to apply some spray contact cleaner the last time I took the covers off .I suspect I may have to replace the six linear throttle pots now !cheers Brian HPS it was a serial connected setup and I have had to put in a serial/USB adaptor in to use it on my current system.

Hello all, I am trying to get my pfc hardware (throttle console,jetliner yoke and rudder pedals functioning correctly with the NGX.Two main problems.1 noticable jitter on all controls which seem to cause A/T to constantly disconnect2 spoiler assignment does not work in spite of seeing movement in PFC steup .Can anyone assist please?pfc version is 4.379FSuipc (registered) ver is 4.743regards , Brian H

Thanks for all your work. took a couple of reloads (I saw the comments about old setups ) but seems fine now. 600/700 are nice too.cheers BrianH

You can look at it this way as well.The huge interest in it shows how very keen people are about this version of the 737 and this is really good for us all.Even the relative few who are perhaps a bit over forthright and let their feelings affect their comments both for and against still can have valid points. Emails and forums are not the easiest things to express oneself clearly and concisely.. cheers , Brian H

Compared to the fiasco of the in service date ( year ! ) for the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner which promises so much, PMDG have nothing to worry about !!BrianH

Just my pennyworth... All typed posts in any forum suffer from the mis-interpretaion of attitude syndrome . What one person types as a simple comment/request is often mis-read as an arrogant or know it all comment where nothing of the sort is meant. We all need to be more tolerant of different approaches to the written word and this will encourage participation not discourage it ! cheers Brian H

Thanks for that, I also run AV and that gave no problems when on , the internet hub has its own configurable firewall.To allow specific address first find the address ?? From you comment I presume you know the server address ?cheers Brian

Success !!!!!! deleted whole installation, re downloaded and ran install..... still activation issue but this time couldnt connect to server...... killed firewall on home internet hub ( very risky but was getting desperate)....Lo and behold activation worked on 4th attempt. Immediately re-enabled firewall !!!! What a lovely beastie. Tried quick cct at Liverpool but didnt get reverse thrust on quick enough and went for a swim !!!!. Does anyone know what IP ports are needed should I need ro re load ??? I really dont like shutting Firewall down ! cheers all and happy flying ! Brian H

Thanks for all the comments chaps. Its nice to know i'm not the only one left with this issue. I had all the fs9 pdmg 737s and they were very good so I am very eager to get the NGX running. It might tear me away from my beloved helichoppers again !! cheers Brian

Hello all, has anyone been able to activate the 737NGX over here yet ? I've had it for a couple of weeks and still hoping for a fix to be sorted soon Cheers Brian H

Hello, does anyone have the pfc turboprop throttle set up and working with th J41I havn't had any luck with configging it at all. Throttle works fine with other turboprops (Twin Otter, King Air etc. I have the latest versions of FSUIPC4 and the PFC DLL . Any assistance would be welcome Cheers Brian H
