[ Closed ] ver 2.5 beta 3 WIN/MAC 64 bit (Page 1 of 2)

Good day,
Started up, at KSEA so, the FP; KSEA/KLAX Fuel; 15kg FL370  wind; 320@30 heading 148º
as I got started there was a small hick-up in the FP but I went and keyed in a direct-to the next way-point and was back on corse ...
The A320neo is performing as to be expected ... very good ... this is one very sweet JAR Aircraft the changes are subtle but if you have been flying the bus for a while you can see the up dates and I like them...

Howdy. I have been quite calm the last few weeks. I am sorry. Buisy time here. Well, never the less I did around 30 flights with the betas under different conditions.

The good thing: Weather stability with xsquawkbox increased considerably. Still there are still overspeeds,  but definitely decreasing in frequency. By matter of frequency I would say 80 per Cent fewer overspeeds caused by xsquawkbox.

Fly by wire works pretty nice, also including Saitek rudder pedals. Low speed taxi is fine, high speed  taxi indicates indicates a slight yawing to the right (but May be caused by my System).

Single Engine Taxi also works fine during taxi-in, with proper yawing. (Taxi out looks different due to ECAM issues. See blow) 

Rudder pedals with the beta work nicely. I use saiteks.  Differential braking including related steering Outputs are simulated nicely.

Yet One thing puzzles me: toe brake pressure from green Hydraulic System  is indicated on Accu and brake pressure indicator. May be it would be worth to check out with your real life pilots if this is properly simulated.

Well, I mentioned some stuff concerning Single Engine Operations during Taxi out. Here the Lower ECAM Display gets locked to Engine Page when Engine Selector knob is not on Norm Position AND both are Engine Master Switches are not set to on. So ECAM Display function is tossed back to dual engine Operations, if you want to Taxi out and May be check Doors Page or ECAM Wheel Temperatur. May be you could check out with the real life pilots, if this is also realistic.

One last thing concerning the PFD Display during Taxi out. V1 is properly indicated during taxi-out. But as far as I know, V2 is also indicated.

Greets and have a good day

Did a flight from EIDW to EGLC.  First thing I noticed was that screens default to not having glare.  Clicking above the PFD activates the glare, but it was activated by default in previous versions.

First waypoint in flight plan was missed and plane continued straight on instead of turning.  I pulled the heading button and it turned onto the correct course.  I didn't have a heading selected (it was showing dashes in the display) so not sure why this happened.

After TOD, I got a drastic drop in frame rate (below 1 frame).  I checked loading on my CPU and GPU and there was less than 50%.  XP eventually stalled completely and I had to exit.  This could be more of an issue with my set up and I was running the simulator at 4x speed which probably didn't help.  I'll try the flight again later.

Using Stream version 10.40 and Windows 10.  Attaching log.txt

Problem with sound3d crash while switching to outside view remains in 2.5b3. Tried different airports, error remains. Log.txt looks different, though.

Finally, FMC is working again. The previous beta (2.5b1) had issues - it was not possible in any way to use a flight planning. There were an error saying that airport were not in database. Finally it's fixed! Will check the other systems later.

Nope, the problem was using manual entry on INIT page. For example, UKBB/UKDD -> click on button -> airport not found.

Good Evening,
Did a flight from EDDH to LFML.
When I turned all three IR switches to NAV the alignment should process about 7 min but the ND comes already after 1 min.
I find (but I don't  know how much time it takes in real life) thats to quick

On the ND,  at ground, we can see the wind arrow and speed. Normally it's only when the plane is on the sky , or not ?

Thanks for all this beautiful works

Yes, have noticed that too, but not all the time.

Thank you capt for your reply. Yes, Ive re-calibrated the joy and then also disconnected it to see if it was the cause, but still having the shaking. I observed that increasing the fm per frame worsen the effect so I set it at 2. With 2.4b I didn't have the problem
Edit: on disconnecting the A/P the shaking stops.

will the ground services ever be included?

Hi,

wiht this beta nothing crash but i've lost lot of fps !!! in the same situation (airport,setting,weather,ecc) i've 24fps with previous beta and 16 with this...this is a big problem

Thank's in advance

The PFD is out of alignment both on the A320 and A330 as per the image
