Hi Guys,None of my Shift + ?? work..Very frustrating as want to get transparent windows..This is on ALL Carenado aircraft that have this facility..I have controllers disabled in FSX as I control everything through FSUIPCThank youDave

I am having a frustrating time getting Carenado to recognize the E address and password which I have used with them for a year or more, and as recent as last week. Now they tell me they have no such info, tried several Tickets etc still no results. I can't even order a product. What's theproblem. Anyone got any ideas. Seejay

Hello, i have this problem with my cessna 172N, anyone now haow to fix it?Thanks

I really think Carenado should make business jets. This is the one thing we need. I would be great! They could make aircraft like the Hawker 200, Hawker 750, Cessna Citation, etc. What are your thoughts on this? Any suggestions about aircraft?

I wanted to remind everyone that last year Carenado began a sale ~ December 15th that reduced many prices of their aircraft almost 50% off their regular price. I think I purchased 5 or 6 aircraft.It was an impressive sale for two reasons. One, their price reductions were generous and two, they included at least 80% of their fleet at that time (if my 54-year old memory isn't failing too badly). The only aircraft that weren't on sale were those that had just recently been released.IMHO, Carenado's prices have always been very reasonable. So, keep an eye open around December 15th. There is no guarantee that they will have the sale again.I don't work for nor am I associat…

does anyone now how to dim the panel light to aviation red . panel light is to bright for night flying

Check out my review website for the Carenado range - I am currently working on the C340 please take a look and tell me what you think!!http://flightreviewer.blogspot.com/

Hi all,I have just purchased the above to use in FSX. It works fine generally.However I would like to set the altimeter to Milibars rather than Hpa etc, as I am UK based.This is already set in FSX itself.Any help would be appreciated.ThanksMark

I look forward to this aircraft. It look very similar to the aircraft that I jump from. http://skydivevoss.n...1272&mid=211272The skydive plane in the picture (the one in a vertical dive) is a Beech 99. Apart from the fuselage length they look very much alike.Anyone know what panel layout it's going to be? Glass or analogue? (I sure hope for both )No matter what, It's going to be very good I think.Have a nice evening guys.

Hi allOn the PA28 180 I would like to replace the altimeter to the default fsx one as this is in milibars.Could someone advise how I do this?Many thanksMark

Will the FSX Saratoga work in FS9? Can it be ported down?

Hi, i just finished reinstalling fs9 and after adding the carenado arrow IV I experienced a glitch when using the VC view. It looks like the problem in this picture, only that it happens from the beginning (not only at night or with the lights on) and instead of this greenish color, i get a white color.I already tried reinstalling the software to no avail.Are there any solutions? ps i'm running win7 64

Hey guys, I have a few questions about the V35B...Does anyone have the panel.cfg file for the V35B that has the GNS 430 WAAS, GMA 340, and GTX 327 installed on the radio panel? Also does anyone have a modified night lighting texture for these gauges?I saw that there were some mods that were made for the F33A (xml) that fixed things with the autopilot, RMI, etc, does anyone know if that will work with the V35B?Does anyone have the Shockwave Lights setup for the V35B with tip tanks? I saw that there were a few out there but they all had issues and the lights didn't show up right...I don't think they were intended for the tip tank model.Sorry to plague you with the questions…

I could not find a definitive answer. I have numerous Carenado FSX aircraft, which I really like. Unfortunately, as awesome scenery such as OrbX continues to grow causing me fly GA aircraft more, my wonderful Carenado airplanes are collecting dust in the hanger because I don't care for the tinted windows. Is there any easy way for me to remove them? If I lose glass reflection I am OK with it. Thanks.

Can someone please help? I just bought the Cessna 182-RG and every time I fly it, the panel gauges or radio stack split and double up, and corrupt the display. It seems like duplicate gauges are trying to display along with the original. This is the best I can describe it. When I first open the plane file everything is fine. It seems that after I change a few windows is when it goes corrupt. The work around I have found is to exit Full Screen and when I return to Full Screen, the panel corrects itself until it does it again. Although this seems to be the fix, it is quite annoying and frustrating and interrupts the flight. Any ideas what's going on and how to fix it?? …

Not fully glass but its still glass! Looks pretty sweet actually. Could this mean the JetPropDLX will be full glass? Hmmm.

Is there any way to install wingtip strobe lights and a panel switch on the Skyhawk and the Archer?

Hello everyone! I am thinking about purchasing the Carenado V35B Bonanza, but before I do I have a question...The first question is, are there 3D knobs in the VC, and if there is does it have the option to have them removed like the F33A did? I have a bunch of the gauges from Reality XP including the GNS suite and the Flightline N & T gauges and I want to be able to include them into the VC without having to deal with the knobs getting in the way. Also, I noticed that the pictures on the Carenado website had a few problems with overlapping and misplaced buttons on the radios, does anyone know if that was fixed? It looks like a great plane, but I want to make sure befo…

Hi,Is there anything I can do about the looping and annoying engine sound in the C182 RG? It seems a little better on approach and landing, but during climb and any cruise setting it loops to a "rum rum" sound that takes away from the realism. I have tried different mixture, prop, settings but other than a change in tone, the looping is still there. It's a shame because other than that, the plane is great. Thanks, Tom

So here is one I can't figure out and I'd love some suggestions. I installed a new GTX560 on my machine and since then I can not work my radio's. The numbers won't light up when the avionics are switched on. This is only in the 3D cockpit. When I switch over to the 2D panel the numbers light up fine and I can adjust the radio. Also the key in the ignition does not roatate while in 3D. I can hover my mouse over the key and scoll the wheel and the prop will spin but the key never moves. Everything works, just not visually. Now the light switches move when clicked and the carb heat pops in and out, its just the radio's and ignition thats not working. I am also getti…

Hi all! Does anyone have or know if the Saitek swicth panel works with Carenado aircraft. I read an old review somewhere and it said that the panel wasen't compatible with most addon aircraft. I'm interested in mainly using it with Carenado planes. Thanks,

So, Having toiled with FSX running on Microsoft XP on a separate partition on my MacBook for a few years, experiencing poor performance & the inconvenience of having to boot in a different OS each time I wanted to play, I've decided to give X-Plane a try. My initial thoughts were - great out of the box sim, great speed in Mac OS X, lousy planes (especially as I've been flying Flight 1 Mustang on FSX). So, the only decent aircraft developers I can find are Carenado. So I've invested in their Saratoga. Great model, flight dynamics, blah blah.... However the Autopilot & GPS need binning. I generally fly in Vatsim, & like to fly 1-2 hour trips (usually in quick…

Hi. After gaining my ppl flying in a piper warrior, i decided to purchase the carenado archer ii. I am extremely pleased with the product but one problem keeps annoying me. Ive noticed that when the flaps down the nose pitches down. This is the opposite to the real aircraft where a very nocticable pitch up force is experienced. Is there any solution to this problem?Thank you
