Boeing 737 -- From Cold and Dark to Ready for Taxiing
Differs not a lot from NG I believe. Thanks! Ype Reitsma

autobrakes disengaged by manual braking, plane stops when setting autobrakes off
Thanks for the replies guys! Haven't got time to experiment with it at the moment.Next week I'm gonna be fiddling around with it. Keep you informed. In the meantime when someone else recognizes the problem I'd love to hear.Ype Reitsma

autobrakes disengaged by manual braking, plane stops when setting autobrakes off
Hello,I know there has been some writing before on the subject of autobrakes, but I think I have a slightly different problem.When landing the NGX with autobrakes setting 2, below 80kts I begin with manual braking and the autobrake disengages. Plane is rolling smoothly and responding well on throttle and manual braking.When I switch the autobrake to off, the plane suddenly stops (you don't want that to happen on the runway..)When the plane has come to a hold, it takes a bit of braking and throttles to get her off the runway.When I don't switch the autobrakes to off after disengaging by manual braking, I don't have this problem. I then would have to switch the autobrakes off when stopping at the gate.Sounds familiar to anyone?Greetings,Ype Reitsma

Just bought a 240GB SSD...going to migrate FSX over. Wish me luck..
Thanks a million Steve. Got the same mobo so it's worth to give it a try!Ype Reitsma

Hi Steve, I'm using an SSD for BOOT/FSX and I read about you saying you were using the Marvell storage port instead of Intel. Mine was installed in the computer when I bought it.When starting up I can see it's using the Marvell port. Can I change this easily? Did you change it in the BIOS? Would be nice to gain some speed!Ype Reitsma

no rudder/nose wheel steering on take-off
Thanks for the responses! I dived in FSUIPC for another time and yes, I had overlooked something: there was a conflict with the rudder assignment! Works perfect now. I used to calibrate through FSUIPC but PMDG advised in the intro-document for the NGX to calibrate with the configprogs of the hardware and use the "send to FS" assignment in FSUIPC.So no calibration of the flying controls in FSUIPC no more. Still quite responsive. Only axes I calibrate in FSUIPC are the gear lever and the reverser (prop and mixture levers) of my yoke. Ype Reitsma

no rudder/nose wheel steering on take-off
No CTD's so far, guess I'm lucky. Every now and then the system freezes/hangs though, but recovers after a few seconds. Installed the latest hotfix. Problem on take-off: can't keep the aircraft on the centerline, it won't react on my rudder pedals at all! I checked with the "system screen" on the lower CDU and they were/are working all right. Anybody? I use FSUIPC but without the calibration. For everything else: I'm still smiling flying this one (and looking around in the cockpit), great! Greetings, Ype Reitsma

"fly-by-wire" => yoke-assignment
Thanks for the reply! Yeah, I noticed there are a lot of individual settings and possibilities in FSUIPC. I'm gonna try for sure. Makes me wonder if they tested the 737NGX with some sort of "basic/standard settings" cause it's likely gonna make a difference in the flying-experience by how you set this up?Maybe they got some advise/rules for the beta testers to follow..Greetings,Ype Reitsma

"fly-by-wire" => yoke-assignment
Skipping back a little to the "fly-by-wire" principles of the 737 NGX, what gives the best response regarding yoke-assignment? Is it better to put the FSX control settings off and callibrate with FSUIPC? Or is your programming based on FSX control settings alone?When it can be more realistic by your product, I'd like to fly it that realistic!The more I see about this bird, the more it's getting obvious that this "something else"!Greetings,Ype Reitsma

New computer help
Great advice, thanks! Think I'm going for the Intel X25-M 160 Gb, I read a positive review about that one.It ain't cheap, but with all the rest of "fast" components of my new system (Asus Sabertooth P67, I7-2600K, 2x4Gb Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 MHz CL8) I think it fits in fine (MD11 and NGX-proof), reckoning I'm ready for some years to come! Coming from a Dual Core 6400 2.13 GHz it should make a difference!Throttle On! (I'm not advertising :( )
