Hi Sirs/Ma'ams, My name is Francis. Everytime i press my rudder pedals to brake my fslabs a320, it completely stops and if i apply 50% power it doesnt move. I have to press . to release the break. Is there a fix for this problem? Thanks and have a good day.

Anyone see this Justflight C152? https://www.justflight.com/product/c152 edit looks like Tim spotted it (my thread is a dup)

Hi, This may be in the wrong forum and I have posted in Flight1's support forum as well with no help at all. Anyway if this post needs to be moved please do. Anyway I have the GTN750 complete. I updated p3dv4 to 4.2. I also updated my GTN to version 2.05. For the life of me I have tried everything to get this product to work. I am getting incompatible version errors when I try to load a plane that has the GTN installed. Please help. I am desperate. It worked fine before the update etc. Now I can not use my GTN. Thanks in advance. Regards

I have tried updating the AIRAC (Navigraph) but it is not being recognized in the FMC. I have checked and the AIRAC has installed into the NavData file. I would appreciate it if someone could advise the correct path to use. Many thanks Best Regards John

I have suddenly started seeing default land textures where water should be when flying around the UK with Horizon VFR Photographic Scenery installed. Everything was perfectly fine until today, and I am starting to suspect that installing France VFR Basse Normandie has done something to one of my cfg files. I have since uninstalled this scenery (because I thought that it might reverse the situation), but the problem remains. Can anyone offer any suggestions? I do not seem to be able to fix it

hey guys thought you might wanted to take a look at my repaints, just finished up with the spanair livery, and i'm soon finished with my SAS Snowflake repaint as well here are som screenshots and if anyone wants it I can upload it on avsim :)

Today I fired up P3Dv4 after updating the PMDG aircraft and I noticed I'm missing my ground textures. Looks like everything is under water. The only last item I installed was PTAbsolute. Other than that everything is P3Dv4 compliant. I am using the full Orbix stuff such as global and vectors. https://prnt.sc/g1h57v

I’ve noticed lately that the clouds and horizon are too bright. They are a very bright white and don’t seem realistic. I am using pta, Rex sky force, and active sky. It is particularly noticible when looking down in the vc at the throttles for example then panning to look out the glare shield. It is almost blinding. Any ideas?

Hi all- I've got a couple of questions regarding AI in P3D and how it's managed. My essential question is what determines what AI lands at what airport at what time, and can that be controlled at individual airports versus globally with the slider. The reason I ask is I fly pretty regularly into KSFO (I live nearby) from KLAX, KPHX and KSEA and on approach I see AI taking off and landing at KOAK and KSJC, airports that I never fly into. Add to the mix ORBX Northern CA and my system starts showing the strain. I'd like to selectively stop or reduce AI into nearby airports if that's possible. Before leaving for work this morning I did a cursory search and saw …

Did the upgrade from PR3D 4.1 to 4.2 and now every plane sounds more like a prop plane. Load the piper cub and shut down the engine, then start FSLabs A320 but it sounds like the prop and doing same with PMDG aircraft as well. Anybody have any clue why this is happening and maybe have a solution. Appreciate any help Bob Demarest Knoxville, Tn

Just had to give this a thumps up at least. What a scenery and great performance provided. Amazing that you can keep the fps up with your tech stuff. Just recorded a video with Frants air monster in 4K with the sun from the horizon (early morning) Lots of traffic provided as well i am from Denmark ,so be gently- but how and where do i provide the precident of your United States with judgment legally visit? Thanks guys , your the best https://ibb.co/kVdxyS https://ibb.co/cYjZCn Michael Moe

First of all: wonderful bird! Only "problem" I have: Aircraft reaction to aileron and elevator joystick input seems to be very sluggish compared to all other planes I'm used to (PMDG 737, TFDI 717 FSL A320). Even maxing out sensitivity of all axes doesn't change much. Is this a problem on my side or ist this the way it is meant to be? Thanks for feedback!

Hi Folks: Need some help here please. Yesterday I was landing at an airport with an APP that had a DH of 1190'. However I couldn't get the DH to go above 500'. Secondly, how do you switch between DH and MDA? Lastly, I have some keys on my keyboard and a button on my joystick set up to help me set decision heights. However, when I attempt to use those shortcuts, the shortcut function I have programmed doesn't respond. Which is interesting because other shortcuts (breaks, land gear, flaps, etc.) all work. Thanks!

After a very long and tedious debugging session, I just realized that I was getting an "Out of Memory" error because I was specifically taking off from CYYZ in Canada. Tested larger, busier, airports like KJFK, and everything worked fine. I tried disabling all my addons by process of elimination, until only one addon remained which would affect this area, and that is FTX Global. I have FTX Global, Vector and OpenLC NA installed and also noticed that others have reported memory leaks over Canada: Has anyone found a solution for this other than disabling Vector? I am surprised that OrbX hasn't fixed this yet, for such a busy location.

All, I'm unable to find the analysis that states what hardware supports the graphic settings in Prepar3d. I'm looking to improve blurries (default setting) and choppy flying through clouds. CPU? Memory? Tim

Hello! The Manual says besisde the picture of the Airspeed indicator: Airspeed reference Bugs: Movable pointers. Click on the upper center part of the instrument frame to position the bugs for takeoff, or click on the lower center part of the frame to position the bugs for landing. Click on the center left part of the frame (near the 300 indication) to ‘park’ the bugs. But there is no description what the bugs indicate. I know they should show things like V1, VR, V2 and clean speed but they dont matched on one of my flights. I had 132kts as VR (set belonging to the inbuild speedcard) but the first bug was close before the 132 at around 125 and the next bug …

I am gradually moving from FSX to Prepar3Dv4 now and I'm trying to setup my PMDG QOS II Cockpit to my liking. To get quick access to some instruments in this VC-only plane I created some custom camera views, undocked these windows and moved them to my auxiliary monitors (good old 2D panel style). I then saved the undocked window positions in my standard scenario. I would like to be able to toggle these via a key-combo. This was easy in FSX since the old PMDG 747 had a 2D-cockpit and many panel views were saved in the panel.cfg. Each window had its own unique ident number and a key shortcut could be assigned via FSUIPC. However, this seems no longer possible for the P3D cu…

Hello and apologies in advance if this not the appropriate location to post a suggestion. As a non EZdok, chaseplane, or Trac-IR user, I find the cockpit views invaluable to quickly make my way around the flight deck. That being said, I also find them rather obtrusive. A possible option if you were to consider redoing them is to make something similar to the Aerosoft Airbus series using a collapsible panel-bar. The panel-bar location can then be customized via the Load Manager setup for location/layout of your choice: left-right, horizontal, or vertical. As a previous MS2004/FSX Maddog flyer, I also remember the view selector that was hidden until you hove…

I bought the ORBX North California package, and this is what I see loading it for the first time (KSFO): https://imgur.com/a/0mARw What in the world? I installed it through FTX Central, and there were no issues during installation.

Will there be a chance of support for the VRInsight MCDU unit?

I want to know what is the best throttle out there and rudder pedals on the market today for p3d? I heard about flypfc but it sayys not compatiable with p3d. Has anybody use it with p3d?

I read a brief article that had a link and I hate Facebook so I am having trouble reading it, but I think it says that Eaglesoft is coming with 4 airplanes starting early next year but none of them are going to be for p3d v4? is that right?

Hi Guys, after an Update from P3D V 4.1 to 4.2 a few days ago, I have problems, to run my MCP V2 from Open Cockpits. Of course, I made all current updates from the addons, like FSUIPC or ORBX and so on. After starting SIOC as an administrator, all LEDs are showing three "0", and no button or switch shows any reaction on the screen of the Simulator, running with the PMDG B737. The Mastervalues in the SIOC.ini are also correct and did not change, like they did automaticly after the Win10 update,and they had to be corrected to the USB IDs by hand. Even the SIOC Monitor shows, that the MCP is working. Though I restarted the complete Computer a several tim…

Hi guys, Everytime I switch views my ATC window keeps popping up. Close it switch views and its back? Any ideas? Thanks guys!
