    Seems now to have been rectified, found was due to excessively long file name for the GNS folder. Installed to a separate folder and used MS Linker and now seems to be working. Thanks to Justflight support!

  • New problem, turns left/right in the air

    @Precog no not necessarily the only solution. There is the rudder trim. This will help a bit but not 100%. Here’s a simple explanation of couple aviation terms. With your head... Look up look down, this is pitch Look left look right, this is yaw Tilt your head left or right, this is roll (or bank) So the left turning your seeing is really a bit of left roll from the prop, right? So applying a bit of right rudder (the rudder controls yaw...L and R but not really the roll) it can help a bit. Some planes will also have an aileron trim (ailerons are what make the plane bank/roll L and R) which are more helpful, but this plane doesn’t have that so long story short, yes, you have to always manage the plane. Being new to flight sims be patient, there’s a lot to learn!

    This is also what I was seeing [image: 73f219f6-30de-4ace-9a7c-9cda9c4f3eee.jpg] I also noticed that peak EGT would lower with increasing altitude. That was something I'm pretty sure didn't happen pre-7 but I also have no idea if that would be realistic or not.

  • MP pressure different than QNH

    Your MP should match the altimeter setting that gives you an altitude of 0ft on the altimeter. That means that MP equals QFE, not QNH. QNH (which is what you have set in your image, which means the altimeter is indicating your current altitude as referenced to sea level) is the pressure at sea level for your current location, which you could read if you were to dig a well all the way down to sea level.

    @BernieV Thanks, I will continue to try I've noticed that if I release back pressure the instant I contact the ground, it reduces or removes the bounce, but that usually ends up slamming the nose wheel into the ground. I suppose there is a balance somewhere between the two that I need to find
  • Problem with the throttle

    @davidcrum sounds like you have multiple options assigned to the throttle, what you are describing usually occurs when there are two inputs conflicting, one is set at full and it resets the one you are using when that becomes stationary for any length of time. It could be either a conflict in the MSFS controller setup, or between that and FSUIPC if you have that installed. I know it sounds basic, but I have done it myself by mistake and it's as easy to do as it is frustrating!

    @Martyn Thank you for making the Red light persistent! It's those little touches that are really nice. I love the Red light. Wish that was an option on more planes. For a night flight I usually set the Dome at setting 3 and turn off the brighter instrument lights. It gives the whole interior a nice red glow and very easy on the eyes.

    Hi, So I just tried again after installing 0.7.0, which reset the aircraft.cfg, and it's the same behavior. I set both the pilot and copilot to Pilot 2 and I see the guy in the sweater. So I exited the program, swapped the Pilot and Copilot attach nodes, and re-entered, and still the same. It's a very minor gripe, but one I'd really like to figure out. Thanks!
