    Did meanwhile make 3 flights (each over 3 hrs) without any problems and today, again same strange behaviour. Suddenly during climb with 1200ft/min at 150 kts IAS at around 15000 ft aircraft suddenly started to turn ending in uncontrollable turns, climbs till stalling. Again, trim seemed to be the problem: during the normal climb, the trim was around -4 and during the strange behaviour again I noticed +12!

    I'M out of ideas now, especially as I can not reproduce it.

    @Peter: do you use the GTN750 under P3Dv4.1?

    If the trim goes from -7 to +10 it's impossible that the IAS stays at 150kias and the ROC at 1500ft/min.

    Of course it does not stay at those numbers, as the aircraft gets totally crazy and due to the strange trim settings it starts to climb until stalling. When turning off the AP i have to put full pressure on the stick to prevent the aircraft from climbing (due to the strange trim value).

    But maybe the problem lies elsewhere, cause when I closed the sim, restarted P3D and repeated the flight everything was ok.

    I'm currently investigating something different and will report back

    No, trim at TO was zero; did another flight today; climbed with 1500ft and 150kts, 37psi, watched trim which went down to -7, AP on, NAV hold on, all good, but then it started banking to the left and right more and got out of control, trim went up in this case up to +10.

    And yes I had many flights with out issues, always the same: start sim, load a fligtplan with real weather (Active Sky for P3dv4)

    I've done numerous flight now, but sometimes during flight the P12 suddenly gets totally out of control. Example:

    flying on a loaded flightplan, after take-off at around 1000ft turn on AP, set cruise alt to 20.000 ft, climbrate 1800ft, everything ok but then aircraft suddenly starts to climb till stall warning comes up, aircraft turns elsewhere, looses flightpath. After turning off AP and flying manually, i can stabilize the aircraft somehow, but when turning on AP again, same mess, weired climb behaviuor and never finds back to the flightpath and finally I have to abort the flight. No errors/warnings on the CAWS come up.

    Flying in P3Dv4.1 under Windows 10

    Just gave it a try and increased the usable fuel to 290 gal per tank. So exceeding the TOW with only 2 person on board (typical for a ferry flight) is very unlikely. And after making a short test flight for 1 hr, I didn't fell any noticable change in flight characteristic except that you have a heavier aircraft, like one with more passengers/cargo.

    Downloaded and installed the 747 today and same problems as many others:
    I'm not asked for the license key after loading the 747, having no gear, black instruments etc.
    What I did so far:
    - installed the 747 on P3Dv4 (no HF1), problem as described
    - installed simconnect modules as suggested, although simconnect was already installed, problem as described
    - removed FSUIPC, problem as described
    - uninstalled and reinstalled the 747, problem stiil not solved

    Ticket opened

    And down again due to Cloudflare. Maybe they should reconsider Cloudflare as partner. Cloudflare was the last days also the source for the download problems. But according to JC everything was fine :rolleyes:

    Not sure which picture you mean. The icons in the startscreen of SIMStarter are obviously hardcoded.

    But the splashscreen of FSX/P3D can easily be changed. Here in example how you can change it for FSX:

     

    1. create a bmp with the size of 800x600
    2. got to the folder ...\SIMStarter\SplashScreens\FSX\
    3. rename the picture you would like to replace e.g. SIMstarter_Set2_VFR.bmp to SIMstarter_Set2_VFR.org
    4. name the bmp you created in step 1: SIMstarter_Set2_VFR.bmp
    5. copy this bmp file to the folder in step 2

     

    You're done.

    Really a strange kind of "error" reported. I'm using Simstarter now for about 3 month very intensively on P3D and FSX with 8 different profiles for betatesting various addons and I never came across an issue like this. But what I have seen that a certain kind of user thinks that one tool is not enough and fiddle around with other tools also manipulating the same files (fsx.cfg and scenery.cfg) and wondering when something gets broken.

    Paul,

     

    IMHO depends how much money you want to spend and where you are flying. In my case it looks like this:

     

    1. areas of interest: NA, Europe, Australia

    2. I use charts from the following sources:

    - skyvector.com for NA

    - Eurocontrol for Europe, you need a free account for the latest and official charts: http://www.ead.eurocontrol.int/eadcms/eadsite/index.php.html

    - Australia: http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/aip/pending/dap/AeroProcChartsTOC.htm (also free)

    For the rest I use Navigraph

    Today I installed AS2012 in a network environment and everything runs fine except the xgauge installation reports an error:

     

    Problem checking Access rights to FSX aircraft folders. You may need to adjust your windows security

    rights and if running vista, make sure you run this program as adminstrator (right click the XGauge Wizard

    icon). This can also occur, when FSX is open. Make sure it is CLOSED before trying again.

     

    - client and server are running Win7 64bit

    - FSX is installed on a separate drive

    - full access from the client to this drive (I can edit from the client any file and save it)

    - running the Wizard as Administrator.

     

    Any ideas?

     

    Thanks,

    Otto
