I finally made a successful beginning-to-end flight with my F1 Mustang using RC. As I expected, I think the problems I was having were simply user error. I believe my main issue using 2x and 4x time compression too early after take-off and also leaving it on too close to decent/approach when instructions and navigation changes come too quickly. I look forward to giving it another shot on my A320 soon.Thank you again for the tips and for this wonderful product. I'm really enjoying it immensely!

I've spent several hours searching through the forums and reading about the whole DirectX 9 versus the DirectX 10 "preview" debate. I don't mean to rehash the whole thing here.But what I couldn't find was a simple answer to my question of whether or not there's an addon that will fix the runway/taxiway flickering issue on a large scale. I have Orbx Pacific Northwest installed and the runways and taxiways look great, even in DirectX 10 preview, but when I fly outside that zone, most of my runways flicker. Is there something out there that will patch up my other runways for the rest of my trips around the U.S.?Thanks for any advice.

Thanks for the tips! I updated FSUIPC to 4.703 and tried another flight in my F-Lite A320 from Minneapolis to St. Louis. Everything was fine until I tried to switch communications over to "Otto," who had controlled the radios during some early parts of the trip, about 80 miles from St. Louis. I got the "standby" text message but Otto never responded. After that, I could cycle through various windows of the RC text options, but requesting a change in altitude, a weather report, etc did not produce any responses. Didn't see any error messages, but I did have to force RC4 to shut down as an "unresponsive program" after exiting FSX.I've sent in a log from that flight. I'm sure this is just some boneheaded user error, but it sure has me scratching my head!Thanks again.

I've been using RC for only a few weeks but absolutely love it so far. It has worked flawlessly on numerous flights of varying lengths and locations with my Carenado Bonanza, C340, and C208B.Unfortunately, I'm having issues now when I use it with some of my jets (F1 Mustang and F-Lite A320). RC simply freezes at seemingly random periods of the flight after an instruction to change frequencies. It has happened on the ground when switching to Clearance. It has happened in flight between Centers. This morning it happened at the end of a long flight, including a highly entertaining series of holding vectors, when the controller instructed me to contact the airport for my arrival. These freezes have occurred both when I was controlling the communications and when "Otto" was handling it for me. I'm 0-6 on completing a flight with RC with these two aircraft and am extremely puzzled.Since I can't seem to isolate what's different about these failed flights versus my many successful ones (except that it always happens in my jets), I was hoping for little guidance on how to begin to troubleshoot this odd problem. No doubt it's user error. Oh, and this is with FSX with a registered copy of FSUIPC version 4.60a running in Windows 7, if that makes a difference.Thanks in advance for any suggestions!- Alex
