Hi,

Have the strobes worked before on your installation? If yes did you check the circuit breakers? Just an idea.

Do you have other A2A planes or 3rd party aircraft installed and do the strobes work on those? Maybe the effects weren't installed correctly for the C182?

Hello,

are you running the C182 P3D product and not the FSX product? One of the many changes between platforms are the effects. Whats your store order number?

thanks,
Lewis

thanks for the order number just wanted the 182 one to check its the right product as some purchase the wrong one, but sounds like you are all good there. The framerate in P3D, what do you have your frame limiter set too? Try turning it down to 30 and see if your strobes appear.

Also in P3D is your P3D all updated from Lockheed?

thanks

Another thing to check is to run the C182 Aircraft Configurator (P3D) (NOT the C182 Input Configurator) and change the landing lights selection.
Check in sim. Do they work now? If not, quit the sim then try changing them back. Then restart the sim to check again.

What you are doing is recreating the ac.cfg file in the A2A/Tools/C182 folder.
