Re: Is landing gear damage modeled?
One of our recon/night observation planes was a 182 RG and even though I had thousands in other high wing Cessnas, it was really drilled into me that the gear on the RG was flimsy. I know the RG is not modeled but many 152/172 pilots really plant the 182 due to its higher weight. They also don't get...

Re: Starting Engine Manual does not work
I have over 400 hrs in the 182RG and thousands in the high wing Cessnas in general. I find myself 75% of the time using autostart out of frustration so don't feel you are alone. Yes IRL some are finicky and some fire right up regardless of the conditions. That I understand and can deal with but stan...

Re: Simconnect error. Loss of roll.
Thanks that might have been the problem. :D I fly the Dodosim heli and the Stratocruiser so the realism is always 100%. I double checked and it was a hair left ,not noticable by just looking at it. I do not have much time but a quick take off and it appears to have more roll. I appreciate the info. ...

Re: Simconnect error. Loss of roll.
Nothing :shock: The simconnect error went away but I have very little if any roll. All other planes and helis are fine just the Cub. From the animations I am getting full cockpit stick and control surfaces are showing full deflection. I can run the joystick calibration and its showing a good stick. ...

Simconnect error. Loss of roll.
I have always gotten a simconnect error with the cub since I originally loaded it..Please restart FSX .It never seemed to effect anything so I ignored it. I have not flown the Cub in a few weeks and now I get the error message when I load the Cub. Everything seems to work, accusim is working, the pa...

Re: Glide is still too much, despite new patch!
Well actually the ground effect and pre stall buffet are ....... Just kiddin. :wink: Now you can really shrink the Cub into some really tight places. What would really be the cherry on top would be a good and weathered interior. Boots,dirt,gravel strips = interior of a old contruction pickup truck. ...

throttle
I am sure this is going to be fixed but this is what I do with my Saitek X52. The button beneath the trigger on the grip I use for planes equiped with reverse thrust. I just hit it and at idle I can hear the rpms lower. Any movement of the throttle however and you have to use it again to bring the t...

Re: Glide is still too much, despite new patch!
That was probably me. They are aware of the power/drag, prop issue. I will now post any comments I have on the flight model here.

I have just bought the plane and going through the learning curve. I did a short flight and was able to track a vor no problem. I tried to dial in and track a loc into a runway but the needles did not appear to move. I did not see any documentation other than a description/overview but no procedures...

Some help with fs9/fsx port.
Ive transfered most all of the shockwave planes to FSX. Today i bought the 190 and have a problem. The vc cockpit is cut off on the bottom and the bottom part stays stationary. Its like the vc is in 2 parts. I have the same problem with the Gotha Ho-229 from another company. ANY help or information ...

The answer is YES. I have not flown the 47 in FS9 so I would not notice anything lost in moving it over to FSX. I picked one out,no thumbnails, flew for a while and everything looked and worked well. Actually great. I have not spent any time or tried starting it up but all seems well. If you follow ...

Does P47 xfer to FSX? YES/NO
Bottom line.
Does the 47 work fullly and well in FSX yes or no.
I own and love the 51 and 17.
But at $40 its a big gamble.
Ive read that some have done it and it works fantastic and some not at all.
Any information welcomed.
