Thanks for the informative warning, Simming is just a hobby for me, i dont take it as seriously as your words above.Dont worry, i leave the forum, ill go play BF3 its much easier and light hearted ThanksBy

I have just searched the 3000 page PMDG manuals could not find where i need to set NAV data source.Could you please tell me where you set FMC nav data source. I want to set my PMDG FMC to use FSX data.and i want to do this for all PMDG a/c i haveThanksJames

Did you ever think folks forget to sign thier name cause they forget, or maybe like to keep thier name private for personal reasons.Its for reasons like this i dont post much on AVSIM, technical dissusions too quickly fall into personal debates.If not signing my name offended you that much , imagine how offended i was when the first reply to my question was SIGN YOUR NAME!!!! LIke a school principal scolds an unrully studentThis is an aviation hobby forum , not an authoritian (**removed**) slave camp, where folks get flogged for not SIGNING YOUR NAME!!!James

I always check joy stick controller etc axis before engine start.Fuel inbalance is not the problem, cause i kept eye on fuel tanks on this flight, cause in part the flight was to allow me to measure NGX fuel usage so i could update my Fscaptain settings for NGX.As you suggested could be trim issue, so next time i see this problem i will just press fsx command to centre all controls, if that fails , then i have no idea.James

I have flown many cross wind landings since i got FSX in 2006, its now 2011, so i know what cross wind feels like.This situation however feels more like runaway Aileron trim, or rudder trim, but not sure. When the problem occurs its alamost impossible to keep plane from rolling over.By the way, if you dont have usefull opnion to add to perons post , please DONT reply with sign your name, its very rude and annoyingThanksJames woods

Thanks for that tip, i will check out this setting in FMC, sounds like just the thing i need.Is this setting only in NGX FMC , or is it inb other PMDG addons like 747/md11/j41 as wellThanks

I have been seeing exact same thing as well, turn off auto pilot during after capturing LOC/GS, and mine was banking right, i have had this twice now, always just after AP off.Thinking i will try see if pressing (FSX centre all controls ) will fix this issue, its supposed to centre aileron/rudder/pitch trims. If that fails , dont know what it could be.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Another problem i seen with NGX is Left AP disengage during turbulence, no big deal , but for the rest of the flight i am not able to reengage left AP.I had to use right AP all the rest of the way, but on approach LOC/APP capture buttons had no effect whatsoever, even though ILS tunes and verified ok.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Looks like we gona need another NGX patch soon

keeping things very simple, PMDG should just supply planes with Airac compatible with FSX database, then provide option to install latest Airac, for those who fly online.Most simmers dont fly online, and its hassle running around looking for old Airac that will match fsx database, Simple!!!.

Thanks for the reply. what you say is same thing i found on google regards FSX.I think this issue has another effectHeading on MCP of NGX and FSX differs by a few degrees.Makes sense for all FSX addon developers to go by FSX database, and all real world addon developers to go by reall world data.Thanks

In FSX DNMM has runwys 19L/R 1L/Rin PMDG FMC DNMM has runways 18 L/R 36L/RAnybody know a way to fix this without having to go round every airport.And if this is caused by FSX database being out of date, then maybe addon developers should make thier databse static as well rather than trying to keep real world data when we cant chnage FSX where we use the addon.The issues is with PMDG NGX, just foundout FMC does not have the runway FSX ATC or RC4 ATC has assigned me.Honestly PMDG why use updated database for FMC if FSX database remains the same, causing problems in FSX.If we no tgoing to fly the SIm in real world , then maybe FMC should use seame version as FSX database.Can this issue be solved by installing some old database , if so where can i get oneThanks

Since folks say weather generation has improved in AS2012, and the textures are still not as good as Rex overdrive.One option might be to get AS2012 for weather and retain REX for textures, AS WEVE ALWAYS DONE!!!!.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spG7vjVebKY&feature=relatedThe series Very Detailed, if you like the vid, ps the guy know by adding comments.The best NGX utube tutorial vid i have seen yet, and i have seen many.

If you asking about FSCaptain.It reads the a/c CFG fil, to get info required for Dispatch fuel, etc . It does not write the file

The vid was nice and detailed, but i still think what you can get on UTube these days is also quite impressive.This vid below is from 737 real world pilot , doing NGX tutorial The only thing i will say is PMDG needs to be more reasonable and produce PDF manuals that you can easily navigate rathe than 2000 pages of stuff you have to scroll through.
