  1. Hello all. I just recently downloaded the Flight1 King Air B200. I loaded it for the first time and it seemed to load ready and running "the props were turning". I noticed the displays were not on, but I thought that the avionics switch was just off when it first loaded. I went into the settings and made everything "realistic" and cold and dark and it loaded as such. I switched on the battery and flipped the avionics master switch to on... and nothing happened. I pushed, pressed, flipped and manipulated every thing I could find on the display but could not get it to turn on. Am I missing a stupid step or is it possible that the download was corrupted by, say, an antivirus program or something. I did notice that windows 7 wanted to know if I would share FSX across my network, which I have never been asked before with this specific app screen splashed on screen, so I said yes to my HOME network, thinking it was Navigraph wanting access. Then I had the other standard, "do you want to use this gauge..." press enter so that was fine. Does anyone think I got a corrupt file download? Or do I just not know how to use the G1000?
  2. Hey Gang I have been around and have flown the King Air Line, as a Line Captain for Charter Companies and for Private Companies. BE350 to the C, E, and B 90s and they are absolutely top of the line when it comes to corporate turbo props. So, in efforts to get re-acquainted with the layout, I thought I would grab a copy of Carenado's B200. At first, I had to say I was a little disapointed. It seemed there was quite a bit missing and such. However, I started to think.. Maybe it's the doof in the chair instead of the developers at Carenado. Hmm. Yep I proved myself right it was me. That said, getting the SP2 installed is a must. The out of the box copy really is filled with errors that they corrected. Reading another Real World pilot's post, someone commented that he should look what he paid for the FSX model and look at the price tag of the actual aircraft. I had to laugh at that. GREAT POINT. So. My findings are, once I got the aircraft tuned in to my less than professional setup, things started to come together. I happen to have a few tips that I will put up over on tips and tricks but thought I would put them here as well. First, if you are here, and you do NOT have a registered copy of FSUIPC... Well, uh... Wasting a lot of really missed opportunity to enjoy FSX in a very rich environment. Go grab it. What I noticed getting started was Carenado did such a great job it was really like saying hello to an old friend. I was amazed that almost every switch was modeled and works quite well so no need to cover that too much. I'd say it is really nice to see lights working, AutoFX test that works. Govenor Test that works etc Props and Governors The only critique I would give them is on their Propeller Governors. They seemed to have modeled some old 1960's era Bonanza or Piper something or another. King Air Governors simply do not "wobble" as they do in this model. SMOOTH is the order of the day. S m o o t h. King Air Governors do not go in and out and in and out of a particular pitch stop as they do in this model. If they did, it would be a major write up and I'd be bending a mechanics ear almost off to get it fixed. Their T210 does the same thing. They really need to fix that. Thottles. At first I was disappointed in the lack of responsiveness. THAT was me. Not Carenado. I finally got it about right via my X52 and FSUIPC. HERE are the numbers. Joy Assignment Throttle 1 Throttle 2 Send to FSUIPC Joy Calibration (Axis Calibration) (Page 3 of 11) Reverse: -14480 Idle: -10449 (in and out) Max: 11223 Slope: -8 Check the Filter Box I have found that this mix of numbers give me the most realistic responsive and travel distance I can get. This allows you to "reach reverse" (nicely) as well as having the power lever (throttle) hit the proper locations on the throttle quadrant. This particular range also gives a very nice taxi "creep" if you will. GIVEN, you have the ICE VANES deployed, AND you have the CONDITION LEVERS at HIGH IDLE. This test was done at Gross Weight too. So as you get lighter you will have to move more towards ground fine. The -8 Slope allows for a much faster spool up and spool down. When it comes to taxi of well ANY turboprop but especially the King Air 200, 300, or 350, you have to keep in mind that there is JET THRUST being generated. I will let you look that up if interested but it is substantial. You have to balance that with Torque and Prop RPM to get the thrust needed for a nice taxi. So patience is the order of the day. This is not a recip. Takes a little skill to taxi these. Without burning up the brakes that is. Well I hope this helps. I hope to find more as I keep flying this. If you are reading this trying to figure out whether to buy or not. I would give this one in particular a serious thought. The other King Air B200s out there are not really indicative of what is actually out there flying today.
  3. Hi guys! I have a question...there's something strange with the B200...or I'm doing wrong...?, if I try to follow torque lb power according to the cruise performance tables, they're only correct and match the power if Anti-Ice is OFF, if Anti-Ice is ON, the power decreases obviously, but does not match the indicated torque lb never...otherwise, I have to leave the throttle at full power, trying to match the torque lbs...and that's not right and real...I think? Someone can explain me this, or clarify it?, I really need to know this!!!, thanks guys! Regards
  4. Anyone using the VRInsight EFISMCP/Comm with the Flight1 B200 yet? I know it doesn't have a LINDA module yet but wondering how it's going. Gregg
  5. How's the B200? Has Carenado fixed the big issues? Does it fly like a KingAir? Gregg
  6. Hi, I'm fairly new to the Carenado B200 King Air and I'm quickly getting use to it's systems in the cockpit. However there are a few navigation issues I'm having and would love some advice or help. Whenever I type in a VOR code, and are in limits of range my aircraft never seems to follow it, nor ADF. I'm not to sure what 'PRE, ACT or XFR' are on the course knob, but I'm convinced it's something to do with my problem. I'm doing everything else correct (I think) with the active bearing points, and I understand how the course control symbol works. I'm also pressing the 'NAV' button with my autopilot, but nothing seems to happen and my aircraft will just fly straight not turning towards the VOR/ADF. If anyone could help me with this matter it would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you, Conner
