PA34 Senaca V HD Series for FSX | P3D

G'day all, I've flown this aircraft a number of times in MSFS and have only one major issue that I wonder if anyone else has encountered. After Startup/Taxi/Takeoff/Climb and Cruise all go ok, disconnecting the Autopilot causes both throttles to be completely unresponsive. I can't move them at all with my hardware external throttles and moving them with the mouse doesn't change anything at all as far as engine performance/RPM/Output is concerned. All the other controls work as normal but landing is more exciting than it should be! Would be grateful for any help as it is a fun aircraft and I'd like to …

I know the Seneca V has been available for some time now, but it is new to me. Bought it because it is on sale now. My biggest issue with it is the model-the RW Seneca (any series) does NOT have a pitot tube and stall warning blades on the right wing. Only the left. Nit picky, I know, but they have usually been pretty accurate with the modelling. I am me, little things like that make me nuts. (The Justflight Arrow, same problem-pitot under both wings! Never have I seen a Piper with a pitot under the right wing. And I have flown a LOT of them RW). I also have issues with the Carenado 430 in the number 2 position. The screen stays on the initialization page until …

Hi there!I bought Carenado Seneca V FSX last week and when I put my email and serial ID to the installer it says serial ID is not valid. I shut down my firewalls and proxy settings. Still same problem. Carenado helpdesk said that I have to use uninstaller which is located inside the simulator’s main root folder.I don't get it what is the uninstaller. Is there another uninstaller or whats that mean? I mean that when some add-ons have own uninstaller but I got after installing.

Are there any tricks to introducing some engine sound variability with throttle settings? I am finding that the engine sound is basically a constant pitch and volume regardless of power settings. At idle power settings there is some difference, but once increased beyond idle, the sound does not vary with power settings. I would expect, as is the case in the real Seneca, there to be a relative linear sound change with power setting.

I've read that some people have integrated the F1 G600-500s in the Seneca. Has anyone really done this, and if so, can you please share your panel.cfg? Please and thank you. 🙂

Panel gauge lights dont work

When I'm flying the map view on the g600 will freeze. If I zoom the map out or in it starts moving again. I'm running the fsx + acceleration pack. Any way to stop this from happening? It can be a pain, especially when getting close to the airport and it looks farther away than I actually am.

I haven't flown my Seneca for awhile in p3d v4. Last night I did a flight, but when I tried to switch the display to track up, it just switched back to north up. No matter what I tried, it just goes back to north up. Anyway to fix this?

I would love to put the new G600/500 package from flight 1 into the Seneca but I don't understand how you can do that if you can't put the GTN 750 into the Seneca as it is required for the G600/500 to work. Has anyone successfully put either the 750 or 2 650's into the Seneca? Obviously I would rather have it in the VC but how do I add it as a pop up? Flight 1 should be begging Carenado to release an installer for their products for the Seneca as they would sell a lot more G600/500 units!

Very good to all. I am discovering a problem. I go two days flying with Seneca Carenado V. Everything it is OK, but when, during I seep, I get to the GRN 430 top to programme the arrival, the flight is paralyzed. I continue listening to the sound of the engine, but the fsx is paralyzed I have to interrupt the flight. The sound of the engine continues. Will someone be able to help or to orientate me me?

Folks, I'm testing the crossfeed in the Seneca V, although setting the cross feed on the right fuel selector I see no activity in the engine monitor system as of fuel quantity. I have put different fuel quantities on the tanks to test this, I left it flying for more than 10 min and the only change is the normal consumption, no fuel transferring. Any ideas if this is a bug or if I'm doing something wrong?

I just upgraded to p3d v4.4 and want to put my Seneca V into p3d. The problem is it only have an install to p3d v2. I purchased it from Sim-Planet back in November of 14 and they've gone out of business. So if there's an update that will allow it to be put into p3d v4 I don't know where to get it from. I've sent Carenado a submit a request, but I don't know if it was sent. When I hit send it showed a 403 Forbidden error page with cloudflare underneath it. I've been able to install some of my other Carenado planes, cause I purchased them at like Simmarket. Any ideas what to do?

When I'm at KORD Chicago or KCLE Cleveland and fly in the area the map scales out to 50 miles but only a small part of the lake shows in the map and the rest is green where it should be blue. So far it only seems to happen around these lakes and wondered if anyone else notice that. Just trying to find out if it's a glitch in the aircraft or my computer settings. Thanks.

Good afternoon everyone. I have a problem with GNS 430 since a month ago. In particular flying Seneca V Carenado. When I want to record the arrival procedure at the destination airport, the simulator is blocked, it does not respond, although I still hear the engine sound, no command responds and I have to leave it, interrupting the flight. I already uninstalled La Séneca V Carenado completely, but the error continues. Has something similar happened to anyone? Any ideas?

Are the engines mounted so high on the real plane. They seem really aloft from the virtual cockpit view. They literally block the whole view. Is the real plane like this? tks

hello you all expert finally me and my kids decide on which airplane we will try (really try) to create a simulator after they didn't like the g1000 setup because there is just monitors and they do like to look on gauges and turn knobs but also they dont like just gauges, so after we search we found out the PA34 SENECA V from Carenado.com my kids fall in love with this model immediately since there is the 500 (or 600 what is the difference ?) in the middle and gauges with the gps . our goal is to make every knob and push button realistic we bought a lot of old joysticks with 21 keys and will take it apart and start putting it in a panels that we will create ho…

Hello everyone, the Seneca II is now supposedly V4-compatible, but after installing - twice - I'm missing gauges: Altimeter, VSI, DME, and more. Anyone else seeing this? Regards, Dimitrios

Carenado provides a RealityXP Readme file, but it is missing the following critical information: COMMUNICATION WITH G600 For optimal communication between the GNS430 and the G600, there needs to be an "RXPGNS.ini" file in the Seneca airplane folder. Suggested content: [GNS430] Popup=10010 AutoPilotMode=2 Radios=1 LinkCdiKey=On AutoApproach=Off AutoCourse=On LinkVor=1 LcdStyle=Off AutoWidth=600 AutoHeight=252 Trainer= LinkGPS=On In the initial Seneca release, the G600 will not show the WAAS LPV glidepath. I have sent some suggested changes to Carenado (including turning off the annoying Alert messages).. If you would like to try a copy, send me a PM with yo…

How do I know which patch level my PA34 installation has? I reinstalled long ago and been out of simming with this A/C for a very long time, I no longer remember whether I applied them or not or whether I have all patches installed. Or, is it safe to just run Patch #3? It won't remove my extra liveries?

I have a Carenado Piper Seneca II (PA34) but I am having a hard time following the checklist on the VC. Does anyone has a checklist that is more realistic to the SIM as opposed to the real aircraft? When it comes to FS I think tthe checklist provided should be one that only has items that are functional in the simulated aircraft, or perhaps better (best of both worlds), the full list but use a different notation for items that are NOT present in the SIM (Or not operational).

Is there away to assign switches to turn on the beacon/strobe lights and the landing lights. I have 3 way switches, but don't know what commands to use. I have the registered FSUIPC, but nothing I pick will work. I've assigned the fuel pumps, nav, taxi lights, and some others, but since the landing and beacon/strobe have 3 positions I can't find away to move them up or down.

Hello everyone. I have noticed that on some saved flights, when I start my Seneca V does not work the GPS 430 above. It does not turn on nor does it work the buttons. I leave the simulator, reinstall the Seneca and it works again. Any ideas?

Hello everyone. I noticed in one of the last flights I did with the Seneca that weather radar on the Garmin, is not working. Has it happened to someone else? Any ideas?

I have installed in the Seneca V of Carenado, the system of lights A2A Redux. In the .cgf file of the airplane I only have three types of lights. The others, like landing lights or taxis do not appear in the .cfg file. I was able to locate the .mdl file on the plane and open it with the ModelconverterX program. What I would like is to know how to locate the coordinates of these lights with this program, to be able to put A2A Redux, properly in place.

Hi. I had it installed on FSX and it was fine. Yesterday I was given a problem that one of the GNS 430s was not working. I uninstalled the file to reinstall it. When reinstalling it gives me several problems in the installation. Including: error opening file by writing / Effects / fx_CARLdn PA34v.fx and other files and does not let me progress in the installation. I would need your help. Thank you.
