So I'm back to having all different aircraft wanting to go sideways on t/o roll, and also as soon as it leaves the runway I have to wrestle to keep it straight or hurry and engage the ap on rwy heading. I did purchase a new stick/throttle combo and it still does it. It's like a car with the front end being out of alignment. Rudder trim???

So what seemed to help... I went into FSX settings / controls and reset all the sensitivity and null zone defaults. Then I did the calibration. Funny I never did seem to have this particular issue with the Wilco Airbus fleet, just the PMDG 737 NGX. Just an observation- Wilco doesn't even come close in any way to the NGX...:-) Joe Connolly KSTL

Well, Yes, - I have to twist the joystick which would control the rudder pedals. So I didn't really mean yoke... But anyway, I'll see what happens if I disconnect the joystick and use the keyboard. I'll post back. Thanks for the input... Joe Connolly KSTL

Hello all, I’ve been looking for a solution to the issue I am having with the 737 ngx during takeoff. It is annoying I have to apply constant (and I think Extreme) pressure to the yoke to try to keep the ac on the centerline during takeoff. If I let go during takeoff, it veers wildly to the left- not as much as a one-engine takeoff, but if it were real world, I'd have quite a few upset passengers. The engines seem to be in sync, no variance in N1 or N2. This occurs every time in any wind condition including calm, and I'm not seeing any failures active (although I used to see a lot of brake overheat, but not with this installation) whenever I do a fresh install, you can shove the throttles to the firewall and it tracks perfectly down the centerline. Seems like this develops over time- Could there be a maintenance item I am missing? Any ideas? Thanks Joe Connolly KSTL

Ya, I got it. That's another part of the problem. As of this moment, the wilco "support" forum gives a 504 timeout.

No sir, I don't. ALL of that stuff I still have to install, once I get the dadgum aircraft straightened out. Then, it's just a simple matter to manually update a couple airports, add FS inn and it;s fspuic or whatever, install ORBX for my northwest scenery, Install AS2012 for my weather, install my ACARS clients for my va's, and probably a couple other things i can't think of right now...

This is blowing my mind. I need the A320IAE for my VA and whenever I install the Wilco Airbus Series 1 Deluxe Upgrade, there are no IAE A320's at all, not even the main Wizzair one. So I had an error and FSX would not start. After a couple of days dinkin around with it, I decided to uninstall everything , including FSX , and start with a fresh install. FSX installs ok. Airbus Series 1 Deluxe installs ok, all aircraft are there as advertised. Then I go to install the EVO Deluxe upgrade and it disappears my A320- IAE The CFM A320 is there, but no other A320 or any of the variations that are supposed to be there, including the Wizzair A320 And I'm talking about seeing these in the aircraft selection within FSX. So, one factor may be that when I installed FSX, I installed to C:\ FSX instead of the default WIN 7 directory, because I'm told there are sometimes problems with things running from out of the protected windows folder. But I made sure when the installers ran, they pointed to the FSX folder. I see the feelThere PIC A320IAE folder in the simobjects/airplanes folder where it is supposed to be, but I only see inside the British Airways A320IAE that comes with AB Series 1 deluxe regular, and it is not showing up in FSX. Did I run Installer as admin? Yes, both. Did you remove read-only attributes from FSX folder? Yes. Did you Disable anti-virus prior to install? Not when I installed FSX, but I remembered to by the time I got to the add-ons. So I kinda feel like Feelthere (ha ha ) is not coping well with the change in the default FSX directory? Maybe?? Corrupted installer? I will re-download the upgrade package from Wilco and see if that makes a diff. Any other tips, trick, or suggestions welcomed and appreciated... Joe Connolly KSTL

This is great, just what I was wanting- Thanks a bunch!

Hello, I can usually land my pmdg 737 ngx between 60-120 fpm without really paying attention, it will autoland itself at 200-400 fpm, according to one va's acars client. I joined up with another va where it's mostly airbus equipment that i'm less familiar with, and I can't get one of them airbuses(wilco) to land autoland or manual like under 4 or 500 fpm. Is there some kind of monitoring client outside of the va's acars clients I can install that keys off the same data so I can practice, and see my rates without having to be "on the clock?"

Well, I loaded the 172 and sure enough the DME light on the panel is stuck on. And it is beeping. So I guess i'll do a few restarts and saves with the 172 then load th 737. I usually keep the 737 loaded, I just save and over write at each destination before I shut down, then check the default box. That way it always starts where I left off. But I don't know how the switch in the 172 got changed, it has been a long time since I flew the 172.

Hi, I have the 737NGX and I'm getting tones fron the NAV radio from two different sources. The standard PMDG is on the radio stack below the mic selector switches- those light up and it's easy to tell what's going on there. But there is another -annoyingly loud- tone coming from an unknown source. I notice it is of a somewhat higher pitch than the pmdg one. I have FSX with FSINN, my WX is ASX, I do have other add-on aircraft installed but obviously not running. I messed with both FSX and FSINN settings and doesn't make a difference. It stops just like the PMDG one when you "detune" the radio. Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to track this down? Thanks in advance Joe Connolly KSTL

Well, this is pretty silly- I downloaded and installed the mission. Everything looked normal. I do not see a SAS 821 or an ENGM/EHAM in the missions in FSX. I see a folder named "Scandinavian 821 Oslo to Amsterdam" in my all programs list, but the only thing in there is an uninstall icon. Where is the doggone mission? Am I missing something here??

That got'er done Matheus, thank you! Even while in flight too...
