Frustrating control problems
Posted: 11 Aug 2017, 16:26
Hi:
I'm very impressed with the appearance and the attention to detail of the 377 but have continuously had weird control problems.
The problems are not with flight controls but with systems, and appear somewhat random.
For example, today the #4 mixture control would not move. The other three move and set fine. I tried recording a video to show the problem and after I recorded a video (which didn't work the way I intended), the #4 mixture works fine but now the cowl flaps wont move.
This is an example... there have been continuous gremlins in controlling the systems of the 377 since I installed it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling - same behavior. No other FSX aircraft exhibit the same random bugs.
Also, I don't know whether this is a bug or just a byproduct of the other problems, but the aircraft does not make rated performance. It will barely fly and sometimes seems to substantially lose power even though all engine instruments look fine. (Sort of like the real 377 and all other 4360-powered aircraft... maybe that's deliberate??)
Any ideas what to look for?
