Are all your monitors the same brand and model? I have four TVs, each are different brands. Each one looks a little different, playing around with the TV settings I got them pretty close. I can accept the slight difference in appearance as a trade off for the immersion.

My vote: PMDG J41

jer029How did you setup the dual headsets? Was this configured in Windows or did you need to buy a piece of hardware. I want this option on my flight deck also. Thanks.

Jetblst, I would be interested in your throttle settings. Thanks!!

I'll post this in case anyone else needs this info. I have assigned the left and right bleed air and inverter to a hardware switch panel I built using the following. I am no programmer and new to Linda. I copied the function from one of the A2A functions that came with Linda. Only drawback is the external switches much be in the off position when the sim starts. No biggie, it's part of the cockpit inspection check list any way function Bleed_Air_Left_Toggle () LVarSet = "ASD_SWITCH_BLEED_AIR_VALVE_LEFT" val = 0 if ipc.readLvar(LVarSet) == 0 then val = 1 end ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, val) end function Bleed_Air_Right_Toggle () LVarSet = "ASD_SWITCH_BLEED_AIR_VALVE_RIGHT" val = 0 if ipc.readLvar(LVarSet) == 0 then val = 1 end ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, val) end function Inverter_Toggle () LVarSet = "ASD_SWITCH_INVERTER" val = 0 if ipc.readLvar(LVarSet) == 0 then val = 1 end ipc.writeLvar(LVarSet, val) end

I got it!!! I'll post my code snip in another post. [EDIT by Guenseli: Why? ] Thanks all.

Thanks ScotFlieger for the reply. I am building my own switch panel with a pulse generator. The problem I have is I can't get the Hex address for the switch commands. If I click the bleed air switches in flight sim, nothing is logged in either FSUIPC or Linda. The bleed air switches work in the flight sim VC panel. I have sent a message to Carenado, however they advised they do not provide support to something like this. I thought about moving to Flight 1, but really like the "steam" gauges verses the fancy glass cockpit. So I guess the real questions is, if a switch in the flight sim VC panel does not log to Linda or FSUIPC, is there anything I can do to try to assign an external switch to that function? Thanks again for any help.

I'm very new to Linda, but I working on assigning switches to the Carenado b200 using Linda and or FSUIPC. I have made several assignments but am having problem with the Inverter switch, and the two bleed air switches. If I open the console (on both FSUIPC and Linda) and click either of these buttons on the panel, in FSX, I get nothing in the box, no hex addresses or anything. It looks as if these panel switches don't really do anything. Anyone have any ideas or direction you can point me in. I'm in the early stages of designing / prototyping a cockpit. Thanks for any help.

Hey follow VOXATC users, I get fatal errors every now and then. Not all the time, and I can't seem to find any pattern to them. Many flights complete with out any problems at all. Last night I got an fatal error on final into KORF, just before I expected the "cleared to land" from ATC. I'm running all default voices, no add ons other than megascenery, Cerenado B200. Is there any log somewhere I can look at? I would like to do some troubleshooting myself before contacting the developer. I'm running 6.2, just noticed 6.34 is out, I'll try that but still wonder about any logs. Thanks again for any help.

Kinda of off topic but, when I was taking lessons, my local airport gave away expired sectionals....always a good source, and the price is right!

Perfect PebbleBeach, thanks!!!

Hi folks, I am designing a somewhat simple home cock pit. Nothing too crazy, but I would like to build a nice looking panel. One question I have is what heights are typical for the yoke and glare shield from the floor? I see photos here of various heights for the yoke. So looks like personal preference plays a big role. However I would like to be as realistic as possible. What are your thoughts? Any ideas / suggestions? I mostly fly the B200 however I want to be generic with the build. FYI, my plan is to build a "desk" to hold three TVs, one forward, one left, and one right. I want to then build a panel with a smaller TV to display the instrument panel and enclose my Go-Flight's. The photos and posts in this forum have been very helpful in my idea phase

Submit a request for help on this page: http://www.voxatc.com/Contact.aspx I've sent a message using the above in the past, he has been very helpful and responsive.

Did you re-install VoxATC after you re-installed fsx? Also be sure to re-run the panel install utility.

Do you have a flight plan loaded, and saved the flight before you click the Enable button?

Thanks for the clarification.

VOXATC will add some aircraft to fly around while your at an airport. It may not give you fancy liveries and schedules but in case you were thinking of replacing your ATC system also....

Muklum, I can't wait to try that. I bet I wasn't saving my flight after loading the new flight plan. Thanks!

Has anyone been able to get the Go Flight GF-MCP to work with the JS41? I can't get the Alt Select or the Heading knobs assigned. Does anyone know a keyboard assignment? Thanks for any help!!

I paid for and still use VOXATC. I wish there was a better way to deal with the flight plans. I have to exit the sim, restart, create new flight plan for each flight. The default voices are OK, a lot better than the stock ATC. Also, when flying VFR, you need a flight plan loaded also. Be nice to take off and head out to practice a few stalls and etc without a flight plan....

Anyone had any luck with multiple flight plans. I have tried a few things but it seems like you must load a flight plan right after launching flight sim. If I want to do a second flight, I exit flightsim and setup another. I wish there was a work around. This is my only negative thing about voxatc so far.

I think you need a flight plan loaded. I tried last night with the a2a c 172 I just purchased and got an no atc error. Tonight I may try creating a Vfr flight to a near by airport just to play in the pattern and see if that works. Sent from my iPhone

I'll try again, but last attempt that didn't work. I have been requesting a temp change, it works but using COM2 would be easier. Thanks for the reply.

While approaching my destination airport, I like to listen to the ATIS of my destination airport to get an idea of what runway I may get assigned. Before I got VOXAtc, I would tune it in on COM2 and I could listen to both freqs at the same time. Is there a way in VOX to do this? I tried the above but didn't work. Thanks as always!!!

I'm thinking i'm doing something wrong. I can't get the B200 to use fuel from the primary fuel tanks first. Always seems to use up the backup tanks then takes fuel from the primary. Anyone have an idea what i'm doing wrong? Thanks.
