Just curious (again :wink: ): what would you need the ANT mode of the ADF for...? The manual says it is 'used for optimum intelligibility of the received identification signal' but... what's the use of it exactly during a flight? When you use the ADF and the needle is active, what else is there to k...

Just out of curiosity: I noticed that it makes a difference how far out you pull the Cabin heat knob. In my search for things to do 8) I now also want to keep the Comanche cockpit 'nice and steady' all the time. :wink: I noticed however that the Carb heat seems to be an on or off knob, unlike the Ca...

Thanks, Nick. That post in that other topic makes sense to me. :wink: I will give it a try during my coming flight (which will start in a few minutes) and I will read that pdf during cruise! :wink: EDIT Yes, got it! These options enable you to keep track of the distance to a specific VOR while actua...

I like to know EVERYTHING there is to know about the awesome A2A Comanche, which is my one and only plane at the moment, and all the available manuals have helped me a lot. The various devices (radio's, ADF, etc.) can do a lot more than most people think they can do! I just love to actually use all ...

We will think how to make it more flexible without using/making our copy of the gps, so one could use the p3dgps.cab directly in 2D and 3D. This is for the new planes and maybe retrofit the older ones. BTW, would FSAerodata work in P3D4? regards ROB That would be nice! FSAerodata is supposed to wor...

Thanks for the detailed information and instructions, ROB!

It seems P3D comes with two default GPS units: fs9gps.cab and p3dgps.cab. Which one does the Comanche use? I am asking this because I am thinking about updating the navdata in P3D with FSAerodata: if you do so you can use SIDs and STARs and all possible approaches in the DEFAULT GPS! How cool is tha...

thanks,

Thanks!

Yep - you'll need to push the yoke fully forward before clicking to fit the control lock. :wink: Nick Ah! Yes! Of course! Now you say it I remember it! :roll: :wink: Totally forgot about that! Either way, the A2A sim make every effort to bring every little touch of what it is like to operate one of...

I can remove the controls lock by clicking on it as it is on the yoke but I can not attach it to the yoke. I do see a hand above the lock as I hold my mouse above it but nothing happens when I click or drag. It should be possible to attach it manually, right? I am using P3D v4. I can of course use t...

Ah, ok, yes, P3D v4, thanks for the heads up. Probably something that A2A will have to fix...?

I wonder though if there is a way to edit some cfg or other file to change the transponder: it must be saved somewhere!

I go to standby mode, set the desired code, rightclick IDT, leftclick on VFR. That should do it. But whatever I do the code goes to 1200 when I click on VFR. I want it to be 7000.

Any idea's?

Something I find quite useful: instead of clicking on the walkaround screen you can also go to the next step by typing the A key. This is the default key for the next view in a specific group of views and as soon as you open the walk around screen it works for that too. This makes going through all ...

BTW On various forums I read about a lot of problems with installing the GTN: you need all kind of fixes...? It this still the case? Or is everything fine as long as I download the latest installer?

I presume this is about the Flight1 GTN750...? I just came back to P3D (after flying in other sims for almost a year) and bought P3D v4 last week. It seems you can upgrade the GTN750 to a version for P3D v4 (and which gives you the 750 as well as the 650) for 20 bucks and I was looking for informati...
