If your theory is correct, why do you suppose that the feedback mechanism is failing for some and not others as we are all using the same code? Gerry

Hi Al, I'm using Windows 7. I did do the "fix" for 2.6, but I believe this sudden pitch up happened once before the fix. I usually use spd hold during climb. I haven't tried v/s through 29,000 but will do so next flight. Regards, Gerry

I just finished a flight and the same thing happened to me using FSX. Gerry

I didn't reinstall the Payload Manager that came with the update. The previous version seems to be working fine. Regards, Gerry

How do you set the digital clock to sim time?

So, how do I install it without RXP and Milviz? Anyone done this?

In my cockpit, I have the GNS unit and a weather unit to it's right. I use ASN. Does Roland's gauge allow me to use the existing cockpit weather unit on the right without RXP or Milviz? Regards, Gerry

Hi Matthias, Thanks for your suggestion, but it did not work. I eliminated Window 3 completely and inserted your Vcockpit entry as such: [Vcockpit43] size_mm=512,512 pixel_size=512,512 texture=$RDR150 background_color=0,0,0 gauge00=RolasnRadar!ORadGauge,85,40,335,265, sweep|beam|icing //gauge01=CONTROL_PANEL!clipboard RADAR, 90,50,330,250 Your Vcockpit number is different than mine and I don't understand why that would be. You also mention the RXP gauge but I am using the GNS that came with the plane, not an RXP gauge. Regards, Gerry

Hi, I installed Roland's radar in the GNS panel config file according to the instructions at Flysimware: [Window Titles] Window00 = CONTROL_PANEL Window01 = AIRCRAFT_OPTIONS Window02 = GPS_PANEL Window03 = RolASNRadar WX Radar Window04 = START_INSTRUCTIONS Window05 = DOOR_INSTRUCTIONS Window06 = PAYLOAD_MANAGER Window07 = New GPS Window08 = Airport Chart [Window03] size_mm=100,150 position=2 visible=1 Window_pos=0.05,0.65 zorder=4 background_color=16,16,16 alpha_blend=0.80 gauge00=RolasnRadar!oRadGauge, 0,0,100,150, sweep|beam|icing [Vcockpit43] size_mm=512,512 pixel_size=512,512 texture=$MV_WXM background_color=0,0,0 gauge00=RolasnRadar!ConeRadGauge,85,40,335,265, sweep|beam|icing gauge01=CONTROL_PANEL!clipboard RADAR, 90,50,330,250 I copied the dll file to the Gauges folder and installed the VC2013 C++ x86 libraries. However, the radar unit is blank and I can't get it to start. Any advice as to what I might have done wrong would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Gerry

Hi Maarten, I followed your advice earlier and was successful in eliminating Microsoft aircraft and the helicopters from the tile list. However, several updates ago, the Microsoft planes and helicopters began to appear again in the tile list. Has there been a change to the criteria of selecting aircraft in the tile list? If so, how can I eliminate them again? Regards, Gerry

Hi Maarten, I am having problems creating flights with a departure or destination based on latitude and longitude. I'm wondering if this is because the format for longitude and latitude entries in the flight plan is different from the format in the FSX Map View. It is done in degrees, minutes and seconds as indicated below: The data for a mooring point will look like this: N54 19.22 W129 13.17 Heading 156 Altitude 0 Speed 0 The N54 19.22 is the Latitude (be sure to add the space and the decimal) The W129 13.17 is the Longitude Heading or Mag is the direction your aircraft is pointed ALT ... always set this at "zero", it finds the altitude of the land when it moves. Airspeed ... always set this to "zero" otherwise you'll be moving fast! In FSX, bring up the MAP VIEW ... then enter the data in similar to below: Note: be sure to use the proper spacing and decimal for each entry. The entry in the flight plan option in SimLauncherX appears to be in a fractional equivalent instead of degrees, seconds, and minutes. When I attempt to launch a flight, it causes a fatal error in FSX with a restart. Regards, Gerry

Hi Maarten, Thanks for all your changes. At the risk of sounding ungrateful, I wonder if you could reconsider allowing for direct input of heading. The headings provided by Misty Moorings for their locations are for the precise placement of aircraft next to docks and other moorings. Using the mouse on the map would give you an approximate heading depending on your ability to determine, say 249 degrees heading on the map. Or perhaps if while rotating the airplane on the map, a pop up would show the heading. I do certainly appreciate what you have done, and if the heading input is not possible, so be it. Thanks again, Gerry

Hi Maarten, Thanks for such a quick response. It looks great! When reviewing the Misty Moorings site, I noticed that they also provided the heading of your plane as explained below: The data for a mooring point will look like this: N54 19.22 W129 13.17 Heading 156 Altitude 0 Speed 0 The N54 19.22 is the Latitude (be sure to add the space and the decimal) The W129 13.17 is the Longitude Heading or Mag is the direction your aircraft is pointed ALT ... always set this at "zero", it finds the altitude of the land when it moves. Airspeed ... always set this to "zero" otherwise you'll be moving fast! In FSX, bring up the MAP VIEW ... then enter the data in similar to below: Note: be sure to use the proper spacing and decimal for each entry. When you are finished, press the OK button and you will be transported to the correct starting location and will be lined up correctly. If it is possible, could you include heading, altitude and speed for input? If it is not possible, that's fine. Thanks again for adding latitude and longitude. Regards, Gerry

Hi Maarten, I'm sure a lot of bush pilots will be very happy! Thank you, Gerry
