Thanks again for help and passing on ur knowledge kevinau. Can now stop surfing the net trying to fix what aint fixable,lol. Again much appreciated. John

Thanks for that kevinau, that will help. Is that not as accurate as the obs giving you a more visible check when the "D" bar centres?. I thought that the g1000 was more advanced. Maybe I'm missing something. Thanks again though for your help... John

Can anyone help, I'm trying to learn how to do an approach into an airport with a vor off field, with earlier a/c I've flown in fsx it is a simple case of using 2 vor's and setting the obs on each to app & catch the radial on the approach plate using the second vor's obs. Now I have upgraded to the quest kodiak with the g1000, as far ado can see I can only use nav 1 with obs, nav2 has no obs select ability ?. How therefore would I use the nav2 to know when I've reached a selected radial. John.

Can any one with some experience of fsx and multipanel able to explain to me why when using the multipanel (autopilot) with spad , Im not able to set the intersect angle to catch a radial from a vor, like you can if using the fsx truetrak system on the epic lt. when the multipanel through spad is turned off. Seems to me this £100 plus panel doesnt simulate the epic autopilot as well as I had hoped.

Does anyone know where I can download a start-up checklist for the epic lt from lionheart.

How does the saitek Multipanel work with add-on a/c, I fly the epic lt from lionhearts and the autopilot has different buttons?. Will I need to remap the keys on the saitek panel to match the keys on the epic?. Thanks... Johnboy

Thanks for that superglide17

Can anyone help me. Is it possible to have the reality xp wx500 radar add on working on a second monitor whilst flying & filling the screen for clarity. I'm considering buying this for my fsxexrerience. My system is as follows: Intel 2.6 ghz quad core processor 4 gb ram Nvidia 8800gt graphics card 640 gb hd

Hi, can anyone tell me if the saitek multi panel autopilot is compatable with the epic truetrak autopilot system?. The buttons have different buttons, for instance, their is no trk button on the saitek multi panel. Is it possible to work all the systems on the truetrak system, via the saitek panel.

Can anyone tell me where I can buy colour prints of a/c gauges. I am building my own cockpit and have so far purchased the multi saitek panel, and the radio panel, but cant afford to buy the six main fundemental gauges, alt, vsi, turn co-ordinator etc so would like to obtain/buy a glossy printout of these gauges to fill my home built cockpit up till Im able to save for the saitek gauges. I dont have a colour printer as this woulkd be the simpler option.

My system :intel 2.66 ghzquad core processor4gb ramnvidia 8800gt graphics card640gb hdCan anyone advise me whether or not my system will easily cope with adding 2 more monitors to my existing fsx experience. Im thinking of adding a second video card to match my nvidia 8800gt card to give me ability to add a third monitor to have three views (front, and two side) views when flying fsx.Also does a video card have to match my existing one or would a cheaper card do the trick.Also any advice on what monitors to buy would be a great help. Am only using 1 monitor at present, a proview 17" lcd which has 8 ms, do I need to match the other monitors that also has 8ms.Thanks, John

hi guys thanks for info, been away, yes am using a router but when using crossover cable obviously im dis-connecting ethernet cable, to connect crossover cable, therefore no internet, but not needing this at my level of using fsx. I only have 1 connector at back of desktop for cable, do some pc`s have 2 or more ?. I do know a little about networking and am always up for learning more, as I have been learning and implementing setting up a network drive between my desktop and laptop, so I could use plan-g whilst flying on desktop, which works fine.Am still not sure about this problem I want to solve, is it possible for me to fly with 2 laptops coupled to main PC ?, and how would this be done.looked up netgear hub that you mentioned, thanks for that brainstormer, does that work just like a mains adaptor turning 1 plug into many, and that does the same turning my one female ethernet cable connector inot 2 or 3 to enable me to use ethernet and 2 crossover cables all at the same time ?.Word Not Allowed you mentioned switches, am not familiar with switches, can you explain how that would work with me using a hub.Thanks again..Jk...

Hi, can anyone tell me how Im able to connect 2 laptops to my main desktop pc running fsx. I have already successfully connected 1laptop to fsx on desktop with crossover which enables me to use plan-g on laptop, whilst flying on desktop, but I would like to now attach another laptop , but their is only 1 female connector to attach a crossover cable. Is there another way to do this?.

Im off to the states and wondered if buying a saitek switch panel as well as all the other panels saitek sell, would work on my pc when I got back home to the u.k.?.

im talking hardware not software, dont think u would get hardware free !!.
