Can’t see temp/pressure marks on airspeed indicator

Post by lcheagle »

Hi everyone. I don’t know if this is just me but couldn’t find any reference to this topic.

I can’t use the airspeed indicator to find ktas because I don’t see any pressure/temperature marks on its twelve ‘o clock window. Any idea?

Thx.

Luis

Hi Luis and welcome to the forums.

Maybe a stupid question, but have you tried turning the knob to bring the marks into view?


Viele Grüße | Best regards,

Like Oliver said, this is not an automatic gauge, it's a simple card you have to rotate to display your TAS (roughly).

Hi Guys. I'm sorry about the delay but my job kept me away. My problem was caused by a combination of different factors. One of them was my eyepoint forced somehow FSX to disable my mouse :lol:

Anyways, it is working now. Thanks a lot....

Ahh good to hear and yes in FSX/P3D if you move the eyepoint inside the model (like the seat head rest etc) then the mouse becomes none functional as it views you as being inside the model. Its like a line of sight thing.

thanks,
Lewis
