Really great flight experience.

I am challenged on every flight to discover something I'd missed earlier. I have been trying to work the fuel controls from inside the cockpit and it has been difficult to get a look at the switches between the seats. I'm using Track IR 5 and I've got that programmed to look down but I'm breaking my...

Re: TrackIR, i got it, need some profiling help

You are getting some good help. I agree that having an easy to find centering button is valuable. I also find that if I raise my vision above my resting view and re-center it gives me a more natural straight ahead view. I've had mine for 2 weeks and I'm getting better but every plane is different so...

Re: Cherokee Finished Paints

Careful thought - as others have pointed out it's an addictive business and if you're not wary you can spend more time painting the blighters than flying 'em! :lol: :mrgreen: Unfortunately, I know exactly what you mean. Anyway, here's the last of the paints that I've already completed. I did this o...

Exterior lighting

Hello,

I am not seeing the external wing, strobe, or beacon lights on my Real Air Turbine Duke. I own several A2A planes and they all work great. I heard there is a fix for this issue. Thanks.

Re: What will I miss without Accusim?

To accusim or not, that's the question. I decided to purchase the P-51 without Accusim and try her out. Right away I had lots to challenge me as I figured out how to start, take-off, fly, and land. This is a wonderfully complex model and I figured that I'd be hard pressed to be consistently able to ...

Re: A Tutorial for Mustang Takeoffs

Dudley, Thanks for the excellent tutorial. I was really looking forward to flying the P-51 and after learning how to start it I was eager to just let 'r rip and take off. What a series of disasterous attemps that was. Then I read your advice and employed your techniques. I've only been able to make ...

Re: Accusim-P-51 installs itself with distorted props

Hi all, I treated myself to a late birthday gift, the P-51 Civilian which now sports a tasty black and gold "Bandit" skin thanks to one I found at S.O.H. I had a world of difficulty starting it, taxiing, and getting it airborne and the canopy kept going opaque. Would you believe that this ...

Re: Brand new owner of the cub, do I need a patch or update?

Hi Scott, I loaded the patch and hot fix then followed the link to Direct X reinstall. I restarted FSX and selected the 172. The problem was still there. I then wondered about the transparency setting and since I couldn't access the cub's control windows, I went to my FSX settings and opened aircraf...

Brand new owner of the cub, do I need a patch or update?

Hi Cub fans, I believed all of you who said I'd love it so I got it and and I do. I am flying in the Alaskan wilds right now and the cub is well suited. In my early flights all of the Shift+ number pop-ups displayed and allowed me to choose, also I had several click points in the cabin. Now I hit Sh...
