Hawk T1/A Advanced Trainer

Yep, same problem. The Autopilot works fine and VS is used and functional, but the camera switch is very annoying.

@ockwellk Happy to hear you worked it out! Glad I could help...enjoy flying this amazing aircraft.

@frankattilio I agree that having the rudder steer is technically incorrect but my gut feel is that the whole thing is skewed by the overall flawed MSFS ground handling. I upvoted the MS forum post to fix that but it's been noted as an issue since day 1 so I'm not hopeful. In the interim I like the rudder steering as a work-around but accept that's a very personal preference. I also feel the rudder doesn't have enough authority during take-off or landing rolls. My understanding is it should be effective above around 50kts but for me I end up with full right/left boot in and still drifting so don't use it at all now - only diff brakes. A mate told me there's a modified hawk flight model on flightsim.to which changes rudder auth so I may try that but I'm loathe to break something else in the process tbh.

@rfpilot You'll need to engage approach hold via the EFB or using a command assignment (e.g. Ctrl+A).

@gadgetfpv Unfortunately this is one of the limitations of multiplayer: https://support.justflight.com/support/solutions/articles/17000120213-multiplayer-animations-and-red-arrows-smoke We're working with Asobo to find a solution.

@katchaplin said in Pressing ESC to enter settings screen shuts engine down: @astro_liam When it happened to me, I had my Mixture slider set to 0, I set it to 100% and no problem. Then I unmapped it for the Hawk profile, since it doesn't use Mixture. Thank you so much! That did the trick! I couldn't workout what was going on but that seems to have fixed it

@martyn oh okay thanks, for the update and confirmation lol

@corvus5624 The actual performance seems to be for DI 0 in the clean training configuration. Now that they've added drop tanks as an option, not sure how they are modeled. Someone posted a link to the full manual, but I haven't really investigated whether it addresses the Drag Indexes for the Hawk.

@gabe777 There is a limited failures tab on the aircraft menu.

@retiredman93231 I have found that when doing a "Runway" start, if you wait until ATC has completed giving you your full takeoff clearance before pressing "Ready to Fly" the engine and hydraulic systems will have had enough time to fully stabilize.

@bjm62 Hehe... two can ... play at that game

@martyn said in AHRS PUSH TO SYNC + RMB powers off HSI and AI: "In the slaved and DG modes the HSI and the main attitude indicator power failure warning flags are displayed while the PUSH TO SYNC control is pressed." Aha, so that's how it is supposed to work. In the Lock interaction mode nothing happens if you just press with LMB, with LMB+RMB it actually presses the button (hence the flags) and with LMB+MMB you release the button. A bit quirky, but it works. Thanks for the explanation! For people who are struggling with the Lock interaction mode (like me): LMB: Lock to the control. Move mouse pointer to operate the rotary (i.e. change heading). LMB+RMB: Push the button. LMB+MMB: Release the button.

@b3lt3r That is also fixed in the update

@tjburni See: https://community.justflight.com/topic/2853/earthquake-in-the-hangar

@b3lt3r Agree. I've started doing most of my directional control below 50-60 kts with the brakes (and rudder trim) and it works a lot better than when I tried to use the rudder. Sounds like we're using the same landing technique too, I just wish it worked on taildraggers where even gentle brake applications tend to leave you staring at the ground through a "you crashed" message

Shakes in the hangar screen for me too

@martyn I finally got it to work. Thanks for the hand holding.
