Hi everyone! I'm a frequent user of this bird since it's release, completed hundreds of flights from cold@dark, never had any issues so far, until a couple weeks ago I couldnt properly start the 800's engines. After finishing the normal startup procedures, the engines seem to run properly, but they are unresponsive for any throttle lever input. I don't even see the small indicator moving around the engines display when moving the levers. With autothrottle on, engaging TO/GA the throttle levers start moving, but the engines don't spool up. I'm using CH throttles and registered FSUIPC, and after reading several topics with very similar problems, I gave it a try with and without using the axis through FSUIPC calibration. Nothing has changed in my config, I erased all failers, did the services through the FMC, nothing changed. I even erased the FSUIPC ini file's pmdg calibration section, recalibrated my joy. I tried to solve the problem by changing the basic FSX flight to the glider and default c172, same issue. Then decided to try out the different 737 models, and the 600 and 900 start up the engines properly, only the 700 and 800 doesn't. Finally did a reinstall of the base package, which didn't solve the problem. AT this moment I'm out of ideas. Any advices would be much appreciated.

Thanks very much, really looking forward to it !!!

You have the preset views, which are defined by yourself, and in every view pressing the middle mouse (at least in my case), and holding it down, you get a free-look around by moving the mouse, even zoomable with the mouse wheel. Just look around at Youtube, look for Setting up Ezdok !

Great, then problem is resolved :lol: Thanks for the info!!!

Thanks, can you hear them with the add-on sound set? If yes would you be so kind to link it?

Didn't help :( I have the sound file (flaps.wav) and it works out of FSX fine, checked the sound cfg file, and all 3 volumes for flaps is set to 30000, which is different to all other sound settings. here is the other sound section of my sound cfg: // Other Sounds ________________________________________________________________ [sTALL_WARNING] filename=stall2 flags=0 viewpoint=1 [FLAPS] filename=flaps flags=0 viewpoint=1 initial_volume=30000 minimum_volume=30000 maximum_volume=30000 [CRASH_SOUND] filename=cncrash1,cncrash2 flags=0 viewpoint=1 [sPLASH_SOUND] filename=cnsplas1,cnsplas2 flags=0 viewpoint=1 [GYRO_SOUND] filename=gyro flags=0 viewpoint=1 maximum_volume=9000 [EXIT_OPEN] filename=opendoor flags=0 viewpoint=1 initial_volume=3151 minimum_volume=0 maximum_volume=8000 [EXIT_CLOSE] filename=closedoor flags=0 viewpoint=1 initial_volume=7048 minimum_volume=0 maximum_volume=10000 [FUEL_PUMP] filename=fuelpump flags=0 viewpoint=1 maximum_volume=9000 Any ideas?

Hi! I'd like to know if this is a problem, or you really cannot hear any flaps sound in this aircraft? Is it a known issue? I've bought the plane at simmarket. Thanks

More than welcome ! Hope its working as fine as mine!

Try this review, I think you will have no problems, if you set up as told here: http://forum.avsim.net/page/index.html/_/reviews/mcnugget-review-vrinsight-mcp-combo-ii-boeing-r214

Thanks Robert! I'm very close to buying it, already been looking at it for a while.

Great review, it inspired me a lot when ordering the MCP Combo II, which arrived just yesterday. Reading your advices it took about 20 minutes to set it up using Linda ( which is an absolutely unique and useful addon), remapped all my CH Yoke and Throttle buttons as well, Linda makes it so simple. Again thanks for the thread, it was a huge help, and after 2 flights with the Combo and the NGX, I absolutely agree, it took my simming experience to a different level!

Thanks, but its not there:) And my versions are also mixed up, I think I'll just reinstall everything, hope that will solve it.

Guys!Where am I supposed to find the #2 tutorial after installation? Its not where the #1 is, even my extended search didnt locate it.Thanks

Looks like it was controller related, I had to recalibrate my CH yoke. Thanks anyway.

I'm flying the NGX since release, but since SPb nearly every flight I face difficulties following the planned route with CMD in LNAV-VNAV mode. First I thought its the sick S turns, but AS2012 and FSUIPC are set up mentioned so many times already, and still my 800 and even the 600 can't stay on route. They start turning , sometimes even the BANK ANGLE warning can be heard, lots ofl times I gave time to recover, but they just loose the route totally. Even switching to heading mode didnt help. Its like my Autopilot has gone crazy. I have to manually fly the bird back to ther right direction, but after couple NMs, it can happen again. I didnt see any specific reason, even at very light winds it happens, I had it with crosswind, tailwind and even headwind. I had a clean reinstall with SPb, and I fly the MAlev 800 and 600.If anyone has an idea, its more than appreciated...
