    I just started a flight at KDEN, late afternoon and noticed with the power off of the aircraft the fuel computer looks like it is on and in test mode. Shouldn't the gauge be dark with the power off? If I then turn on the battery switch it changes to what is shown below. And if I turn off the battery switch it remains the same.

    On the preflight inspection order page in the tablet, section 7 skips the letter E and goes A, B, C, D, F.

    Could you post a screenshot or describe exactly the steps to reproduce the issue?

    I just started a new flight, cold and dark. Moved my position to the passenger cabin and looked out the windows and can see the ailerons and elevator move. I then hit the button on my controller to "toggle external view" which puts be behind the aircraft. If I then move my controller I can see the ailerons and elevator move. Which command are you using for your external view?

    Nice, well that confirms that so the only issue is in the air with the rudder.
  6. jfwharton
    That would be nice to confirm. If that is indeed the case, then the only issue is the rudder not moving once the aircraft is airborne.

    I'm not having the issue with the control surfaces except for the rudder. It only moves when on the ground and the aircraft is moving. That issue has been posted here before. I just started a flight and for me the ailerons and elevator move even with no power on the aircraft. You may need to check your settings.

    I haven't had any issue with downloading from Flysimware. The zip file is 1.13 G is size. Are you using a download manager? If so turn it off. I just tried downloading the latest version again and did not have any issue. It might have something to do with your location. Flysimware is located in California as far as I know.

    You are welcome. Right now I'm doing a test flight up to 29.000 feet to see if the mixture levers work at altitude. Update. I climbed to FL290 and noticed the fuel flow decreasing as I climbed but the mixture levers had no effect. Also, I found the pressurization at that altitude can only maintain a cabin altitude of 11,500 feet and I get a cabin altitude warning.

    I did a flight to verify what you stated and sure enough the ailerons and elevator move in flight but not the rudder. Also I started a flight on the runway at KDEN and one mixture lever, the left was full forward and the right lever was at setting 4. They didn't used to do that, or at least I didn't notice it before this latest update.

    Question about the mixture levers. It seems that the aircraft is now on automixture as my mixture levers appear to have no effect. But also, when I start a flight on a runway the mixture levers are not all the way forward but are at a setting of about 4 (flying out of KDEN). So if the engines are now using automixture is there any need to adjust the mixture levers and if not should they not be full forward when starting a flight on a runway?

    I totally agree. NAV should work but it doesn't so hopefully they will fix it.
  14. jfwharton
    In order to capture a VOR you need to use HDG to set up an intercept, then select NAV on the autopilot and of course VLOC on the GTN. When you start to intercept the VOR course you need to then select APP on the autopilot in order for it to track the course. The autopilot will then change over to VPP mode. I don't know if that's the way it is supposed to work. It should capture using VLOC and NAV but it doesn't.

    OK, so the ALT button works differently on the PMS variation than it does on the GNS variation.
  16. jfwharton
    That doesn't seem to work now with the latest beta release. I just tried a flight, set the altitude selector and clicked arm and flew with the GNS 530 version and it didn't capture the altitude. But when I clicked the ARM button and the ALT button on the autopilot it did capture the altitude. I'll check again and see how it works with the autopilot in the PMS50 variation.

    I checked the tablet click spot for every livery, every variation and the tablet closed when I clicked on the camera click spot on each. I also noticed that when the tablet is open clicking on the window click spot for the tablet does not do anything. It only works to bring up the tablet.
  18. jfwharton
    Are you running the latest beta, version 1.2? I have checked each of the 4 liveries for each of the variations and the placard inside each matches the tail number on the outside of the aircraft as well as the tail number listed in the liveries.
  19. jfwharton
    I don't have that tail number in any of the variations.
  20. jfwharton
    Which livery are you having this issue with?
  21. jfwharton
    It doesn't set the heading bug on mine either. I just move the heading manually. Apparently when you push the heading set knob it and try to turn the knob (with it pushed in) it moves the compass rose.

    On 1.2 Beta quick look left works correctly now but quick look right looks right 45 degrees instead of 90 and also looks down. It should look 90 degrees right. Also, you still can't move the rudder on the ground until you move the aircraft. I checked other aircraft and was able to move the rudder on them, so this isn't a FS2020 thing. The fuel switch panel also still shows LEFT ENG OFF for the right engine.

    Since I only have the one system I wasn't aware of the limit. I agree that you should be able to install multiple copies as long as you own each of the systems you have it installed on.

    Go to \MicrosoftFlightSimulator\Packages\Community\flysimware-cessna-414a\SimObjects\Airplanes\flysimware_Cessna_414A and find the engines.cfg file. In there you can do two changes, but keep in mind I believe the pending update will correct these issues. In engines.cfg look for fuel_flow_scalar =1.5 and change it to 0.75. Also look for fuel_air_auto_mixture=0 and change it to 1. That will fix the mixture levers so you don't have to lean the engines as you climb.

    I just tried Locked mode and the directions are reversed in that mode as well as Legacy.
