  1. Hi Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, although interesting that isn't what I am looking for. However, it looks interesting so might take a gamble on the basic version and see how I get on. There is a similar utility called FSSTARTER which I purchased a little while ago
  2. Hi, I am hoping someone can help. Some weeks ago I came a cross a small utility that allowed me to practice landings etc in a simple way. The utility which was not part of NSFS itself allowed me to pick a destination airport and various landing scenarios. Unfortunately I have now forgotten it's name and I can see anything that jumps out at me in my downloads. Hope someone can put me out of my misery!!
  3. Further to last message. I deleted the Aircraft folder as I read that this is created when MSFS starts or custom view is created, I have also repaired MSFS but this hasn't changed anything. I'm running out of ideas.
  4. I have followed all the advice including watching the video but as yet I have not had any success. A bit baffled as I have used similar settings with x-plane and they worked. Just in case I am missing something obvious is BETTER CAMERAS a utility or just they way people post the mods??
  5. Hi, thanks for the replies. I am aware it's the num pad needed for the numerical entries. I have tried everything, including the default keyboard entries and nothing works. The main aircraft I am using are the Cessna CJ4 and the Fly-by-wire A320. Really stumped as to what the problem is.
  6. Hi I am hoping that someone can answer the following question. I have been trying to capture customised instrument views but had no joy. I think I am using the right combination of ctrl-alt+keyboard number. Tried this on a couple of aircraft although my preferred choice is the Cessna CJ4. I have also looked at my keyboard profile but none of the options shown there work either including ctrl-function key options. one final question, is it possible to save the Pilot/Instrument smart views to a key rather than having to select them from (I have the Turtle Beach Velocity One)
  7. Hope someone can tell me why my keys just keep beeping at after I start a new flight plan etc. I get no reaction from LNM to the keys being pressed and have to use Task Master to close the program.
  8. Thanks for your reply. The important word here is "should" but in my case they don't. Logitech advice direct PC connection but I have tried everything but no response from panels even though the Logitect test programs wotk fine.
  9. Thanks Waldo. I have both the items you mention but need to check the version numbers to see if they match yours, in the past there as no longer a requirement to enable the Logitech plugin separately but I give it a go enabling separatey. When you say you only use FSUIPC passively do I assume you just used "out of the box" with no changes and it's the FREE version.
  10. Hi, I recently had to reinstall MSFS with help from Zendesk support after it wouldn't load. I also had to apply the mandatory update afterwards. Apart from noticing several changes in the way MSFS works (which I am working through as I come across them) the biggest issue I have is that neither my Saitek Radio nor Multi Panel have any display and also don't seem to be working.. I have FSUIPC, SpadNext installed and and have also run the USB Power Management changes on the USB ports and also installed the Logitech plugin. I have my radio panel connected to my Saitek Cessna Hub (powered) and the multi panel straight off one of my motherboard USB ports. The radio panel will flash during loading and SpadNext test routine seems OK. I have searched the web for clues but a lot of the info is now dated so may not be relevant. If anyone can offer any help I would be much obliged.
  11. The "in-built" flight plan option with FS2020 is very simple to use for the more casual simmer, like me, and avoids the need for external software. However, I have found that when I check the FMS it shows "flight plan not loaded" and so far I have found it's not possible to follow the chosen flight plan as was the case with x-plane when using autopilot. Can someone explain if I am doing something wrong or do you need external software, such as Simbrief, to fully use the FMS?
  12. Thanks assisted rudder take off was the one I was looking for.
  13. I have previously come across a setting which enable me to "disable" nose wheel steering so as to be able to travel straight along the runway on take off without the need to use my Thrustmaster rudder pedals which I still need to set the sensitivity on properly. At the moment the slightest movement on the pedals cause the aircraft to move all over the runway. Can anyone tell me how to find this again as I have forgotten where it is and I wan to make sure it is working properly. Thanks
  14. I apologise if this is a strange question but i am hoping someone might come up with a light bulb idea. For some time I have had a neuropathy problem with walking due to the brain and legs not being in sync, this was mainly in my right leg. Quite recently I have been diagnosed with slap (drop) foot on my left side so have lost the "feel" of my feet to some extent. I have been using CH Pro Pedals but this is now becoming difficult as my feet tend to slap down which of course applies the brakes plus the sensitivity in feel is impaired so movements are exaggerated. Once I am in the air this is no problem but of course for taxing-take off-landing it is. I have a rather old Logitech extreme 3d pro joystick which has been collecting dust and was wondering if might be better to discard the pedals and use the joystick for the above functions but it is getting the calibration right assuming there is nothing else wrong with it. I was also wondering whether using the nose wheel steer toggle would help at least for take off and landing but I have not been able to clarify exactly what that does. In my case it would be nice if it just kept the nose wheel straight when on the runway. I might have to abandon ideas of taxing around the airport and just use the map to place myself at the end of the runway. If anyone has any suggestions I would be very grateful.
