Hawk T1/A Advanced Trainer

@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.

@martyn Fantastic - thank you! Now I understand. Much appreciated.

@retiredman93231 .....Gorgeous Thnx

@morti Thank you!

@bbcm Hi Bob. The first update has not yet been released but should be available this coming week. The drop tanks can then be selected from the EFB payload section.

I am now much better able to manage take-off and landing after spending a serious amount of time tweaking sensitivities on the rudder and (critically) toe-brakes. It's now at the point where things are not too mortifying... I have the following observations remaining (I stress this is ME so probably my flying): On take-off the rudder is only beginning to become really effective just before 90kts so any attempt to switch to that when the toe brakes have been used to stay straight actually introduces instability so I find it best to ignore When in a simple straight line taxi at very low speeds, I find the aircraft will veer from the centreline without compensating constantly with rudder (steering). The deviation is pronounced and I wonder how sensitive the real aircraft is to wind? My tests were done with an 8kt 90 deg crosswind which doesn't seem extreme. When I switch wind off I can taxi and take-off with zero directional inputs. I would expect deviation on take-off as speed is so much higher, but it's purely the scale seems quite large. Still spending inordinate amounts of time in this and generating a lot of smiling

@martyn Thanks for the info!

@martyn Found the issue with the Thrustmaster TPR pedals causing me to veer from side to side when taxiing. The standard configuration (a single axis) works with other planes but not with the Hawk. You have to add separate rudder axis for left and right. Since it was working otherwise it took a while before I thought of this. Thanks.

I've developed and tested the Hawk using a very similar joystick without any issues

The Hawk is my first Just Flight purchase and the installation process was straightforward.

On my HP G2 the mouse cursor/pointer over the EFB panel is really blury, and not good align to the VR sight.When i close my left eye ,the cursor became sharp. Is this bug only on my configuration, or have some one notice it too?
