I created a GPU to work with C208 and huge thank you to the brilliance of Doug Dawson who created and share the battery charger dll. so no more depleted battery if you dont have FSUIP4, extended battery life setting or unrealistic aircraft.cfg setting to give you battery life for ever.
FSX battery deplete very quickly and if you really take your time with proper start up
you would have found that by the time you wnat to start the engines, then your C90 do
not have sufficiant power to start the plane
current workarounds:
- Most use FSUIP4 with setting "Extend battery life indefinately"
- Manually add an entry to the FSX plane aircraft.cfg under [ELECTRICAL] section
electrical_always_available=1
NOTE: CONDITION for gauge to do its work..!
for this gauge to work properly so that you can actually see battery power depletes and being charged
both FSUIP4 entry for battery life indefinately on, must be switch off and the aircraft.cfg file must not have the
entry "electrical_always_available=1"
It has been uploaded to avsim. I dont know when it will be available, should be available in day or two. so check the library under FSX gauges
Illustration on how it work
NOTE: THIS will ONLY work if the plane is stationary. Once the plane moves and you have not decoupled the GPU the ssytem will automatically decouple the GPU and switch off the battery charger.
Any other plane that might need something simmilar
