mindstar freezing cessna 182

Post by pecquais »

After starting P3D scenario, GPS mindstar 530 works well during few minutes and freezes: screen fixed and knobs unserviceable.

Hello,

it sounds like a gauge issue so you might want to contact mindstar but also make sure your running the latest version of our software;

Seems to be its not working well in Prepar 3D and the Mindstar developers are aware.

http://forum.avsim.net/topic/456891-which-garmin-430/

I think the term "lots of complains" is a bit more than the actual quantity. However... the reason for the CTD is because of a bug in the core sim. To get the built in autopilot to follow the flight plan in our 430/530 units... we 'inject' our flight plan into the core sim. It's a supported function, that has a few bugs one of which can cause a CTD. We were never able to interact with ACES regarding this problem and now find it impossible to discuss it with Lockheed-Martin.

So, it's not going to get "more trouble free" until such time as Lockheed-Martin provides a way for us to work with them on solving the problem without our giving away any "trade secrets" on how we do things.

We'd honestly love to have this issue go away, it's just out of our control to make it happen. If you're going to point out that RXP and/or Flight1 does this or that... I will ignore the comments because it would be improper for me to comment on them at all.

Thank you for your answer.
Yes i have the good version of your accusim.
Mindstar GNS 430 and 530 is not a good product:
-no terrain screen
-not able to create user Way point (important for training!)
-very bad accuracy with knobs (what is their logic???)
-many bug driving to freezed screen
RXP was incomparable better of quality, but i run with P3D, now...
