Having a problem with reverser (Saitek throttle Quadrant) fpr Caranado Cargomaster C208B. When engaging reverse engine with black knobbed throttle, the aircraft's nose wheel lifts off the runway and plane becomes uncontrollable. I also have an RW design DHC6-300 Twin Otter and the reverser works perfectly. Any ideas how to correct this problem. Thanks BW

I have Avitab for the B412 Helo. I get sudden drops to 15fps (down from a solid 30fps locked with monitor refreshed rate). The drop lasts from 5 sec up to about a minute (with the same scene in my cockpit view) over urban areas. I just noticed that when this happens, I have the Avitab in my view. Once a I pan away or turn the helo so my view of the outside doesn’t change but the Avitab leaves the view, the frame rates become stable. The fps drops at random, the same scene can be fine, then I get a drop, then things stabilize again. Has anyone noticed an issue with their Avitab & performance? The fps drop occurs even when I don’t have the map turned…

I had a question to make sure I'm not missing something with ATC. I seem to have no ATC and it seemed like in the beginning when I first installed X-plane I did. The ATIS still works but there are no communications between aircraft in game and the computer generated ATC voices. Would anyone know if maybe a file I had got deleted or is this a known issue. I have tried a few different AI aircraft programs over the past year and wonder if maybe something there might have conflicted with the game? Thanks for any suggestions

Hi, I want to get Xp11 very much, but I don't know whether I should get it, or wait for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 which looks amazing. I really want to get xplane, but what do you guys think?

I'm assuming they're disabled with TrackIR enabled, because they certainly don't work for me? I try pressing [CTRL] + [a numpad key] when viewing a specific area of the 3D cockpit while the numlock is on, but when I press that numpad key later nothing has been recorded. Meanwhile, trying to view the overhead panel in my new DHC-6 Twin Otter is like a new found form or medieval neck torture - ouch! Am I correct in my assumption that I can't use those quick looks with TrackIR and if so, is X-Camera the solution? And...saying that it is the solution, will the freebie version of X-Camera have that functionality? Sorry I'm making a lot of assumptions here, but I'…

Hi. Is there a way of making the X-Plane camera behave like the three other sims with which I'm familiar (P3D, FS2004 & Flight Unlimited)? What I'd like is... In 3D Cockpit, to have the POV hat pan the camera (rotate view left/right up/down) (swivel in place like turning my head). In spot plane view, (outside the aircraft view) to have the POV hat truck the camera (translate left/right up/down) (keeps the plane in the centre of the view while circling the camera around it). It would be the icing if I could also zoom in the 3D cockpit and dolly in the outside view. So far I've only been experimenting with the X-Plane demo, and this camera pro…

The developer of Air Hauler mentioned today in the AH2 beta forums that he is now "considering" Air Hauler 2 for X-Plane sometime in 2019. This would be a great addition to X-Plane...I am so hoping this happens!

I look for airport with cross winds. For 10 years now I have looked for airports with cross winds. Best cross wind landing was in x-plane 11 in a piper cherokee, 50 kt cross wind landing, not once but 3 times I have made a 50 kt cross wind landing. This makes me the best simulator pilot in the world. Cheers

I'm trying to file a flight plan in a DHC-6 Twin Otter at Vancouver Harbor, but when I enter the correct ICAO of CYHC in the "File Flight Plan" window, I get the error message "You do not appear to be at that departure airport." I'm making sure that when I create a new flight I'm choosing CYHC Vancouver Harbor. I've tried starting in sealanes and at a ramp (in this case a dock), but it makes no difference. As well, when I click the Flight Configuration Window Icon, the "Flight in Progress" dialog box always lists "CYHC, custom sealane or ramp that was selected." I've noted that when I first display ATC, all of the frequencies listed on the right are for Vancouver …
