Re: Adding a GPS

Thank you all. I just used the Garmin 1000 as an example. Looks like I will stay with what I have got.

Adding a GPS

I understand I can only use the default GPS. But say I would like to install another GPS say the Garmin 1000 would it be possible? Or am I restricted what I can use that is shown in the configurator?

Re: Turn rate adjustment when using AP

Many thanks for your replies. The STEC-30 is a rather basic autopilot - it doesn't fly turns in NAV mode - typically - you would switch to HDG mode when approaching your turn point - turn the aircraft with the HDG Bug - then put it back in NAV mode once established on the new leg course Strangely I ...

Turn rate adjustment when using AP

Hi Team, can anyone advise how to adjust the turn rate when using AP please?

When using GPS with a flight plan on sharp waypoint turns, the Commanche is a bit slow in the turn because the rate is shallow. Would like it to get to at least a rate 1 turn.

Michael.

Re: Ident signal button

Alan thank you for your response. I don't think it does send the ident as I was flying with IVAO and ATC asked me to Squawk ident and although I switched to alt on the radio stack I also had to ident on the IVAO panel. I have the idea that Alan's answer isn't the one to your question. Hi Puk, yes yo...

Ident signal button

Hi Team, can you help please? When connected online with either Vatsim or IVAO you are requested to squawk mode Charlie. I know this is to show your position on radar for ATC. My question is..... Does the ident and setting ALT on the Squawk panel within the Comanche do anything (send a signal) or is...

Re: Finished Repaints

Thank you George.
You would need to have some sort of paint programs such as Photoshop,
Not that simple eh. Just thought I could just get into the .cfg and change the callsign. :roll:

I might just leave it to the experts on this one .

btw. the the black one is awsome :D

Re: Frame rates drop when in 3D cockpit

In FSX, even the mouse cursor when it's visible tends to make frame rates drop; this is because of its interaction with the click-spot functionality in the VC. You may have hit the nail on the head with the above. With the cursor I get much reduced rates than without it. I must admit I do use the c...

Re: SimConnect not connecting again

Re: SimConnect not connecting again

have you reinstalled simconnect and then restarted the system and then tried? Yes I have. Does the sim connect have to be inside the folder of FSX? At the moment I have placed it on my desktop and installed from there. Is this correct? I did have a problem with SP1 & 2 before and def installed ...
