A2A Cessna C182T Skylane

Post by ErnieC1949 »

I loaded the A2A Cessna C182T into P3D V4.5
But when I went to use this aircraft nothing happened at all; no flaps, no engine start-up - nothing happens, nothing works.
What could be the cause of all of these problems?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank U
Ernie

Hello Ernie and welcome.

Please can you give us a few more details about how you're loading the 182 in the sim and trying to get it started up.

For example, are you using auto-start (Ctrl e) or trying to manually start the engine? In either case, have you made sure the aircraft is fuelled via the Shift 4 menu? Have you checked the maintenance hangar (Shift 7)?

If you can answer these questions, it should help us to point you in the right direction.

Thanks,
Nick

I made a mistake on the c182t Skylane being fixed; I was working on the Cessna 172 instead
Still having issues with the CT 182T I went to the maintenance hanger to fix all the problems and clicked on repair and nothing happened.
And still, no fix whatsoever.
I apologize for any inconvenience or confusion caused by this mistake.
Thank U
Ernie Collins

Hi Ernie,

If lots of items are shown as broken in the maintenance hangar and you're unable to fix them by clicking on them, there may be an issue with how the aircraft is being loaded into the sim.

Please can you let us know which plane loads in your default P3D scenario? In other words, which aircraft is shown in the 'Scenario' preview window when you first launch the sim?

Could you also let us know the exact file path which you used when installing the 182. Specifically, if the folder in question is being synced by Microsoft OneDrive?

Thanks,
Nick

First off there is no MS Onedrive it has been disabled on my computer.
2. The aircraft that comes up when I load P3D V.4.5 is as follows
F22 Raptor 525 th Fighter Squadron.
3. When I go to install the 182 skyline into P3D v4.5 it looks for MSFSX
The 182 Skylane is for FSX is this a problem within itself for P3D V4.5?
4. The directory that the program goes into the A2A C182 file that is located in P3D V4.5 airplanes:
I hope this answers all of your questions.
Thank U
Ernie Collins

Hello Ernie,

This will indeed be the problem. The FSX version of the 182 is a 32-bit application and isn't compatible with P3Dv4 which is a 64-bit program.
