B200 King Air FSX | P3D

When starting the approach phase and switching off the autopilot's NAV and ALT mode, my plane behaves very erratically and is very difficult to stabilize for hand flying the final approach. The plane makes and almost uncontrollable dive the moment I switch the AP off. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

I created my own little version 2D popup gauge for this with two knobs to adjust. Just found the pressure gauge in VC difficult to see and adjust being the gauge (center panel) and the adjustment knob (pedastal) being so far apart. Work like a charm, well at least for me and my requirements..

Hello everyone, I just liked these topics in the Malibu and C90B forum and thought why not just continue with the B200?! B) Having a good time and fun with the B200. This flight was in the morning from Reykjavik BIRK to Hofn Hornafjord BIHN via a short stop in Akureyri BIAR using the Aerosoft Iceland Scenery and jfab45´s great repaint F-HEAL, many thanks to him! Takeoff in Reykjavik and below FL100 onto Akureyri Second lap from Akureyri to Hofn Really enjoying this bird! Also wonderfull highly recommended scenery especially in the wintertime! Thanks for watching!

Why does this plane perform so badly in the frame rate department? I have the C90 and it works great but the B200 sucks my fames down worse than the pmdg 737 ngx

Wondering if there is a way to alter the aircraft cfg or panel cfg to allow both comm1 and comm2 to be active simultaneously? I have a number of other aircraft that allow this, but with the B200 and C90 i can't get both to work at the same time. I use a Live ATC program that runs on my comm2 channel, and therefore it must be active to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I keep having to reinstall the B200 if I want to have weather radar or static elements. Any thoughts?

I know this has been discussed before but I need instructions about how to amend the respective xml gauge in the B200KA.cab to have the winglets permanently on. Many thanks for your help!

Hi All, I'm new here, just bought the Carenado B200 this afternoon. I've had a bit of a play with it already and installed SP1. One thing that has me perplexed is when I select gear down (below the max extension speed of roughly 180 KIAS) - either with my Goflight LGT II or with the keyboard - the gear will not come down until below 165 KIAS. Recycling etc doesn't do a thing - the handle changes to the down position but nothing else occurs. The 165 KIAS is important as it is (163 KIAS) the limit speed for gear retraction (in the real aircraft) and I'm wondering if there isn't something in the code messing with this. Has anyone else seen this? Cheers, F…

Hi guys, in my B200 I can not set the transponder code and the ADF. What Iam doing wrong ? There is no click spot to find... Thanks. Steffen

Found a very good training documents and thought I will share. Especially the general section almost at the end have some rather nice data illustrations of airspeeds etc.. "Picture tell a thousand words" http://www.redskyventures.org/doc/other-poh/BE20_FS_Technical_Manual.pdf Example

This is a first attempt to get dual RXP GNS units installed, complete with popups. 1. You need to have the RXP Unlimited package installed for this to work 2. Use the RXP530.exe app (in the Aircraft folder) to install the first 530 3. Open up the panel.cfg file (make a backup first) with Notepad and make the following changes //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window06] window_size=0.297619,0.342857 position=8 visible=0 ident=15532 zorder=99 gauge00=rxpGNS!GNS530_2,0,0,100,100 //-------------------------------------------------------- [Vcockpit01] ..... gauge04=rxpGNS!GNS530, 0, 0, 512,372 gauge05=rxpGNS!GNS…

Now available. Also include a custom weather theme for the flight (just to make it easier to set up for the flight Also included a slightly different weather theme where cloud cover extend all the way south instead of clearing up as you travel south. (for redoing it for a second/third time maybe) HUGE thank you to kurt who let me use his C90 tutorial for this flight who have basically already done most of the work. Thanks. http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fsxmisc&DLID=172591

Hi, Pardon my ignorance, but could someone be nice enough to point where the clickable winglet on the King Air 200 is? I have looked everywhere. Thanks!!!

I am still getting a "MASTER WARNING" flash at high alt (above FL320) - my pressure dial is set to the correct alt and cabin pressure dial is in the green. What settings is everyone using for high alt cruise. I have installed SP1..

Hello everybody ! Bon je vais la faire en Français ! Si un peintre en avion pouvait me faire un repaint du B200 aux couleurs du F-HEAL ... ça serait magnifique !!!

I was interested in swapping out the strobes on this plane for A2A Shockwave lights but it appears that the B200's lighting is hard coded into the model (the cfg file only contains 4 lights, most of which appear to be VC lighting). Can anyone confirm this info?

Ok, been following this release. What I read that worries me the most is if the pressurization controller will be fixed. Secondary may be cockpit sound level, which an astute user could modify. Lastly, typical documentation issues. Question is - with these issues do the folks that have it give it a thumbs up, or thumbs down? I know F1 has an upcoming release. I also know their rep (excellent IMHO). That is not my concern at this point, as it is not available, and personally I am not sure I want the all glass cockpit. May be answered soon if any details of a service release come out, but, looking for opinions of those that have it . . . Thnks.

Not sure about FSX but in P3D where I am usually, th4e Avidyne is giving bogous ETE values as seen in the picture

I am busy doing a tutotrial flight for the B200 based on what Yoda did for the C90 and needed to confirm the numbers to tie up to POH but I am wayyyy offfff.. so at this stage there are no tutorial flight comming forth..!! According to the training manual (of a well known training facility for B200 pilots) and POH you should be able to easily get to a torque of 2200-2300 for temperature 15degree celcius. With prop and condition levers fully forward running throttle fully open (grinding the last bit of effort out of those engines) I reach 1880, and havent seen 1900 on the torque indicators. Can someone confirm this. Am I missing something? side note (I can …

Hello everybody, after doing some research this weekend for the B200 I was lead to this wonderfull german repaint I found here. Maybe some of the talented repainters out there might take a look into doing this beauty! :wub: Here is a shot of the black antireflexion sheets of the inside engines! Here is a LINK with a bunch of more pics for different views of angles Would be very very much appreciated if someone may find the time for it :-). Happy flying!

Watching Carenado is getting to be a hobby in it's self. After years of one new air plane after the other with the same cockpit equipment and look and I now wonder if many of them even had different "FDE". Now comes the King Air C90 and the release of the B200. Now I know that many if not all the King Airs have a lot of systems that are common to all. What I find to be amazing is not only did this bunch at Carenado use many of the same gauges ect in both models they even duplicated all of the bugs and problems that were released with the C90!! They truly do not care about quality as we have seen for years. They now have thumbed their noses up at the customers and we all k…

Anyone has it or knows how to build one? Thanks Mike

Anyone knows how to get it to work in BE20 installed on P3D? All I have now is a strange 'poster' screen in RXP530 saying "Reality XP". Thanks Mike

Hi guys! I have a question...there's something strange with the B200...or I'm doing wrong...?, if I try to follow torque lb power according to the cruise performance tables, they're only correct and match the power if Anti-Ice is OFF, if Anti-Ice is ON, the power decreases obviously, but does not match the indicated torque lb never...otherwise, I have to leave the throttle at full power, trying to match the torque lbs...and that's not right and real...I think? Someone can explain me this, or clarify it?, I really need to know this!!!, thanks guys! Regards
