East bound over Papua New Guinea with the sun at my six. Beautiful weather - "Active Sky Next" on - with some storm clouds in front of me. Around thirty miles to my destination at Aiome. Autopilot on. Looking at charts, and info on the Aimoe airstrip for best approach. VOR needle started it's slow swing to line me up with runway 19. At ten miles started slow decent, flaps, gear down. Time to disengage the autopilot. Having trouble finding the autopilot panel in the dark. The Autopilot on off switch was not only hard to find but getting that index finger to land on it was another challenge. Solved the lighting problem by holding a mini flashlight with my teeth. . All this to say it would sure be great if that panel had more lights on it.

MIlton Schupe brought this plane everyone's attention years ago. From what I read it was on the design board in the late 1940's. Carenado has now introduced this new build for us. Sure right now it's version 1.0 but as with all planes this one will be tweaked. Enjoyed three flights with it today,

It's available now. Bought it and did a flight. Great plane, well done Carenado.

Sorry about the delay in response. Thank you very much.

I have searched these forums and read the manual looking for a way to bring the RC voice into my headset without just making them the default. Any suggestions, Maybe a workaround or some other hardware or software?

Thanlk you for the info. It is installed registered and now waiting for the Christmas scenario to play out so we can dive into that manual, err book:)

thanks ronzie, I just did that. Just DL RC. and going to install.

Thank you very much Glynn. Will do .

I am thinking of picking up this program but I'm wondering if Radar Contact will pull airport data from the Program Data Scenery.cfg or just uses ICAO's from AIRAC data such as what Navigraph provides. The reason I'm asking is I my major fliying is in GQA aircraft and usually departing a lager airport with a smaller airstrip destination. Regards Ken

I have my throttle 2 on my joystick assigned to the engine torque. Moving it will raise and lower the collective.

Hi d-jones1, It's the CH control managers that i downloaded from CH Products. Deleted them, plugged in the yoke and pedals and rebooted. Win 7 found some drivers and they work fine.

Hi Richard, Thank you. I had installed the control manager and between posts I deleted it and the drivers. Rebooted, plugged in the yoke and pedal. They are now both working just fine. For some reason I thought CH had upgraded the drivers for 64 bit machines. Thanks again for the great response.

Thanks Jim, I moved it but cannot delete the original post.

Well there is a first time for everything. Got a completely rebuilt desktop for Christmas, A 64 bit machine. Loaded everything back into a fresh empty, other than the Win 7 pro OS, with no problems. Fired up FSX, all the service packs are installed, as well as the Accellerator package. The problem; everytime I reboot I loose the CH drivers for the yoke and pedal. I have to recycle them by unpluging and repluging them into the USB ports. One on the PC, the other on a 2.0 USB port. If anyone has some direction they can give me to resolve this, well it would really be appreciated. Here's my specs 3.20 Ghz Intel Core i5-3470 processor Intel Corporation DH77EB MB 16352 MB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Video Card Windows 7 Pro OS 1TB HD Cheers, Ken
