Re: A2A Development Update 4/8/18

Press AP, NAV and then GS on the KAP 140 for example to track an ILS? Press AP,and NAV to track a GPS course? From experience so far, the AP doesn't track a GPS course, you pretty much have to steer it to the new course manually because the AP won't make the turns. The same with ILS, it won't make ...

Re: A2A Development Update 4/8/18

Will it have a more user friendly autopilot? they are realistic unlike the unrealistic stock autopilot modeling. Well, I have no experience in a real aircraft, I once got a half hour introductory ride in a C-172 or C-182, I don't recall which and that's my total experience in a small plane. I likel...

Re: Why is my T-6 so slow? RESOLVED!

There's a mod kicking around here somewhere that lets you click on the gauge in the cockpit and it changes it to knots or mph and back.

Re: Throttle Friction Lock?

It is on the base of the throttle control. You'd rotate it to prevent the throttle from creeping in a real thing. Obviously, no use in the simulator and therefore not simulated. Ahh, ok. The graphic representation of the throttle looks much like the lock on the old 60's semi trucks to hold the rpm ...

Throttle Friction Lock?

I don't get the the throttle friction lock, where is it and how do you adjust it. The image of the panel in the manual doesn't list it and not being a real world pilot, I have no clue. I'm having some trouble with the 172 and the 182 in getting them off the ground without crashing. The manual says t...

REPOST: Need help locating texture.

I posted in the C-172 forum by mistake and it should have been here. If anyone could help with this it would be appreciated. <knock, knock> Ron are you there? :D

Re: Need help locating texture.

I must have been half asleep posting this... it should have been in the C-182 forum. This is about the C-182 template. :(
Sorry.

Need help locating texture.

I can't for the life of me find the door handles on the 182. For some reason I have a bit of the red paint on it on both sides and yet I've searched the red all over template and nothing like a door handle seems to be touching it. Can someone show me where the door handles are? Thanks. :) https://i....

I'm guessing a majority of people aren't running the payware version of FSUIPC and therefor can't use the little app.
I tried it and it's excellent. Thanks for the heads up and link.
