146 Professional

@martyn I apologize for the last post. I see I used the BLoc instead of the V/L button. After flying the route again today, I realized my mistake.

@hrdejong I was able to figure it out the day I posted on the forum. Thank you for your help and happy flying !

@b3lt3r Thanks to both of you. For your support and advice. After deleting it in safe mode and downloading it again, there are no problems left. Best regards and safe flight.

@summerman The only way to keep climbing with constat speed is using IAS hold. In this way the autopilot controls the vertical speed to maintain it constant adjusting the vertical speed. if you use VS all the way up, somewhen the airplane will stall and the climb is further not possible. After takeoff fly by hand looking to accelerate until 210 or 220 Kt and then pres IAS hold and engage AP. It should work fine.

@caldeira Yeah they are going to add two of them eventually if I remember correctly. I think they said it would be the UNS-1 and the G750 at some point. Not sure which would be first though and no time frame. The WT one works fine though for what it is, loading flight plans and selecting SID/STARS and so on.

Is it possible to have the aircraft recognise ground contact and and allow rudder pedals to control the nose wheel without rudder interaction at low taxi speeds?

Is there a possibility of allowing notes to be added using a mouse for VR users?

I have a number of products from JF from the scary days when no msfs was out for this reason I continue to buy direct so I can keep to track of stuff easier. Another plus is JF are awesome enough to email me regarding new updates.

@magdalina That will be added in the next update

Thank you both for your replies!

On the 146 the weight is kinda seperate from the Flex calculation. What does change is your take off distance and V1 as you'll likely be taking longer to roll/climb etc etc. Until someone makes a publically available take off calculator just gonna have to use the brain a bit. There is no chart or limitation for payload vs. a flex power setting. In practice - at the operator I'm familiar with - taking off with a light load or a very long runway in the winter, is the only time flex power was used in the 146. Most of the time come spring/summer the engine was already limited to a reduced N1 as you see in the above charts. So any kind of wear and tear benefit was miniscule. On the Avro the TMP makes things little easier, and the better performance calculating and engine condition monitoring tools (Engine Life Computer) make the REDU thrust takeoffs used a lot more.

@martyn I believe I had or still have an open ticket about that, if that helps at all.

@tatar We encountered an issue with MSFS/SimConnect which Asobo have now provided a solution for. If that works then that will be fixed in the next update.

@peterhemm Thanks for the report. This'll be fixed in the next update.

@b3lt3r Thx for your repy - I am currently in the process of moving from a condo to a retirement home and have little time for simming right now. I will try your suggestions when I get a chance and get back here regards Nigel

@martyn Using the replacement gauge, did few flights using just the FCU, the Bravo and/or a combination of the two. It appears to be working for the most part, was able to descend/ascend in VS or IAS and switch between the two with nothing crazy happening. But there is something odd with using the Bravo's IAS mode. It doesn't seem to want to hold the speed properly some times, one time it just gradually kept pitching up until it lost near all speed, the next it worked fine. It also doesn't change the indicators from VS to IAS on the FCU using the button on the Bravo, and can't switch to IAS without VS being on first. Its bound to Toggle Autopilot Flight Level Change. As an aside, when you use the SYNC mode, to set like a vertical speed, will the plane pull itself towards the original vertical speed before settling back down to the new speed? It's something I've noticed during climb mostly, when pushing the nose down to build some speed before climbing again. Sorry if this is rambling a bit, wrote it at like 2:30am, Edit: Okay I think I worked out what was happening, on my keyboard IAS mode was set to Alt, and only Alt... I have no idea how that happened.

@martyn Thank you for the suggestion, I'll try also that.

@hrdejong said in Update v0.1.4: @ross1562 it is that page that you access from the "orders", the file Install_146Pro_MSFS_0.1.4.zip of about 2.8 Gigabytes. This is the full installer, there is no separate update file to the latest version. What I mean is that this download includes all the fixes from previous versions, so also the 0.1.3 ones. Yes. Perfect, thank you.

@retiredman93231 Ahhh.....I understand now! I already guessed, that would be a misunderstanding by me. Thank you Sir!^^
