    @Black-Square OK that seems to work well. It appears to be simply "slowing down the animation" which works fine for me. @Black-Square said in Customizing the Prop Animation: If you also want to delay the transition to the blurred propeller disk, then change the first line to (A:PROP RPM:1, RPM) 286 > I'm not super concerned, but this didn't seem to affect anything that I could see. I even increased it to the prop's maximum RPM and I still got the blurred disc effect. Also, I think initially I was getting hung up on this final line, thinking that I could somehow multiply the visual RPM by 0.5 as it relates to the engine RPM: (L:bksq_VisualPropRpm, RPM) (>L:BKSQ_CARAVAN_PROP_RPM, RPM) Thanks again!

  • TQ6+ and the reverse detent

    After understanding how the damn Reverse Polish Notation works, I managed to configure, using Mobiflight, the prop axis to include the prop feather once the detent is passed. You can program it several ways, even in a single action, but I prefer two actions to keep the expressions simpler. To get these values I used the Mobiflight app "Potentiometer RPN-Tool" which you can find at the link Prop lever: @ -3.2312 / 16383 + 0 max 16383 min (>K:PROP_PITCH_SET) Prop feather: @ 57000 > if{ -16383 (>K:PROP_PITCH1_SET) } The same goes for the flaps. I configured the Mix2 lever as if it were the flaps lever. The configuration is as follows: Flaps 0 > At the top of the lever Flaps 10 > a little lower (value 2000) Flaps 20 > At the detent (between 50000 - 53000) Flaps 30 > In its lowest position (beyond 57000) You can adjust these values to your liking. The four actions I created in Mobiflight are: Flaps up: @ 2000 < if{ (>K:FLAPS_UP) } Flaps 10: @ 2000 > if{ @ 45000 < if{ (>K:FLAPS_1) } } Flaps 20: @ 50000 > if{ @ 53000 < if{ (>K:FLAPS_2) } } Flaps 30: @ 57000 > if{ (>K:FLAPS_3) } For the power and condition lever , I’m still using the configuration I mentioned earlier in this post. I could do something similar to the flaps, but I prefer to keep the beta range configured this way to play with it during taxi. Hope this helps.

    I believe I’ve found the cause and it’s related to the issue I mentioned about the COM/MIC buttons in this other post. While I have COM2 and COM2/MIC selected, the GNS430 volumen knob works correctly. As soon as COM1/MIC is active, having COM2 active at the same time, it doesn’t work. In that case only the GNS530 volume works. Occasionally (not always, but it happens sometimes), when all four buttons are selected (COM1, COM1/MIC, COM2 and COM2/MIC), the ATIS selected on COM2 is heard duplicated, as if it were also tuned to COM1.

    Ok. I have already verified that by disabling the TCC on FSTraffic, MSFS uses the FS Traffic models. Working very well.

    I’m glad there are threads about this - i’m have the same issue with the Caravan Pro and the NDB 345.5 NWI - the KR ADF radio wont input the .5s - so annoying when trying to do NDB approaches at EGSH. I’m going to ask at my old flight training centre to see what they say.

    Further info here, in that an afternoon spent doing ILS approaches with the freight or Cargomaster variant has been rock solid and a World removed from what I see in the clean, no pod pax version. Solid as a rock and on rails at all speeds down to an improbable 70 knos indicated. There is definitely something odd here, but what it might be, I haven't a clue.

    My apologies! Everything is working fine now. It was probably an issue on my end with the liveries add-on.

    If I understand what you're looking to do, this would be determined solely by the font you include in your package. You should be able to accomplish almost any effect you're looking for, so long as you're willing to edit the font.
