F50 FSX | P3D

Hi, I installed F50 to P3D5 and got stuck with the infamous "navigraph data not loading" bug. Is there a way to manually install the required info? I´ve gone through all possible correction attempts found.

the first of a couple of repaints from me

Did a short flight this evening after setting up Bert´s GTN mod. Everything works a it should, no problems detected, except: my GTN750 (RXP) is dark. But when I call them up with shift+2, it pops up and works normally. If I send it back to the pedestal, it is dark again. Not a problem, if it is the way it should be. (it happens only with the F50, all other planes do not have that prob.) Anyway, a very big "thank you Bert" for the hard work. Peter

Hello, I did my 3rd flight this plane today and i've noticed all the VFR approaches only the "500feet callout" is played. I checked the sound folder at \Sound\Carenado\CarSoundF50 and there are definitely full altitude callout audios from 2500feet to 10 feet already installed. I might be doing my approach or even preflight checks wrong. Any idea how to enable the callouts? BTW i have not enable GT750 installed. Regards.

Just wondering if anyone has configured GSX with the F-50... I also noticed that even the "exit" coordinates were not configured by Carenado on the Aircraft CFG...

I can't seem to set the EPR panel to do a flex takeoff. It just reverts back to TO when I press the FLEX button. Also, does anyone know how to arm AF/APR?

As explained in the GTN Integration post, I have made some changes to the autopilot and EADI/EHSI readouts to make operation with the GTN as the primary navigation source (and the FMC disabled) easier. You can request my mods via PM, including your email address. This will be an active project for a while.. Please post any feedback to my mods below..

Is there an avionics master switch on the F50?

Hi all, I did forget, is there a way in the aircraft.cfg to get everlasting power on the Fokker 50? Thanks for helping.

Hi all, Back again...can we alter a taxi and landing lights. Make them shine brighter and a bit further?

Hi, I newly bought the F5o from Carenado and there are a lot of features that does not work. For example you can't change frequency on the ADF. You can switch between active and stby but not change. Also I can't turn the course and hdg-knob. Is there anyone else that have th sae issues? And know any soulutions?

First off, I apologize if this is in the wrong place or if it's been covered to death. It's never been solved. I broke down and bought a Carenado product. I loved the look of the Falcon 50. The plane flew fine while the Navigrap database was loading. Once loaded, frames went to less than one per second making the sim unusable. I have tried all the 'fixes' I found on Carenado's forum as well as anything I could find in other forums. I altered the .DLL file, I changed permissions for Navigraph files, I moved all FSX sliders to the left and turned off any eye candy. It's a Navigraph problem and it's never been dealt with. Carenado went from offering me a different airpl…

Again due to lack of documentation anywhere i'll just post the vspeeds and etc down below here. Data here is from an airline that no longer operates Fokker 50. Some data is NIL as the company does not use it but i believe other operators have data for it. Note data below is for dry runway conditions. Gross Weight: 14t Flaps 5: v1= 92kts vr= 92kts v2= 95kts vfr= 97kts vfto= 101kts Flaps 5 Take off length= 800m Flaps 10 NIL Flaps 15 NIL flaps 25 vref= 88kts flaps 35 vref= NIL Gross Weight: 15t Flaps 5: v1= 92kts vr= 92kts v2= 95kts vfr= 101kts vfto= 105kts Flaps 5 Take off length= 841m Flaps 10 NIL Flaps 15 NIL flap…

In short, any airport that doesn't have a SID will not show any departure runways for me in the FMC. For example, if I create KOSU - KDTW and try to select my departure runways, the list is blank. No SID nor runways listed. My airplane is sitting on runway 5. Alternatively, I could create KDTW - KOSU and select KOSU as the arrival and there are STAR/runways listed. Is this a learning lesson for me and it is just a normal function of any airport without a SID listed, or should there be departure runways listed regardless? I am using P3D with the most recent Navigraph chart update applied.

Hi all, Is it possible to manually enter a waypoint in the database of the Universal FMC of the Fokker 50? I like to add EHN (NDB freq 397.0), its position N51 28.1 E005 23.7 This NDB is missing from the database, thus don't show. I contacted Carenado several times, no luck... Any thoughts?

G'day I have just purchased and installed V1.1 The text on the pedestal is missing on the regular version but present on the LITE version. I do not have V1.0 so I cannot copy the file from that version Is it possible to use the file from the LITE version or is there more than just the missing passenger cabin in the LITE version ? cheers

Please delete. Thanks.

Hi, I am back from using Flight 1´s GTN and now Iam using the universal FMC adopted from the Citation S550. I can have flightplans in the FMC by Aivlasoft. so far so good. 1.But there is no magenta line on the map. Is there someone who can tell me how to get the magenta line? 2. You can only get LNAV mode when you push the Nav button on the FMC and I would like that I could also push it on on the Autopilot mode panel. Some help please Best regards

how to import a flight planner in FMC ???? thank you

Finally picked up the F50. Nice, real nice. Only thing I cannot figure out is where are the switches for the cockpit lighting. I found the series of switches on the center console below the throttles, but they are poorly labeled - some work, some don't. If I do a "Ready to Taxi", the panel lights are on but none of the overhead or flood lights. Anyone figure this out yet? Thanks --WH

Hi all, Has anyone experience with EFB v2 from Aivlasoft? Does it have an autopilot function to follow a flightplan? And how does it react with the Fokker 50? Greeitz, David

Upon request I've done two repaints for the Fokker 50 as well. Forgive me if they exist already, I hadn't checked before painting.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the Carenado website (1.1) but still have the eye point in the wrong place (or alternatively, the cockpit too far forward). I'm a but confounded why others haven't got a similar issue. ??? I don't have any camera add-ons. For now I will have to use the FPS heavy version.

Does anyone have a problem with the airplane ballooning when you drop the flaps during an approach? The autopilot has trouble controlling the airplane when I do it.. (maybe an indication of poor airmanship on my part..) I've tried to apply the PC12 flaps lift/drag mods with some success, but not quite sure what I am doing, especially since there are two flaps sections (0,1) with slightly different degrees of flaps (intentional??)

I've read that this airplane doesn't have a very good fms. I'm having an issue that I honestly hope is related to the carenado fms and nothing else. I tried creating a flightplan both with default fsx and onlineflightplanner.com. The problem is the plan looks viable but when I enter it manually into the fms some of the waypoints are way off. For instance I leave kcha or Chattanooga heading to northern Michigan. One of the waypoints generated by both planners is BWG or Bowling Green, Kentucky. Perfectly normal except that the fms puts the waypoint at 5000nm or so away. Not possible as it's only 500nm to my destination. Bowling Green is not that far from Chattanooga either.…
