C421 C GOLDEN EAGLE FSX | P3D

Can anyone adjust the 10`s digit while tuning the ADF radio , mine dont work

I'm seeing a memory leak on the C421. If I sit too long at a busy airfield (Orbx EGLL, etc) the VC windows will go black and stay that way. Wondered if anyone else has seen the same.

Hi guys! Has anyone noticed the yaw damper switch animation sometimes doesn't correlate in Virtual Cockpit x 2d Panel? And to add it to the confusion, sometimes it's ON when the switch is OFF and vice versa. Using Ctrl + D shortcut activates and deactivates the YD correctly, but that doesn't mean the switch will position agrees with the system status. Maybe a mission to @Bert Pieke ?? 😬 Regards, Rafael

Alabeo has released a new version of the Golden Eagle.

Has anyone bought this and installed the old RXP 530W? I don't have version 2 that is listed as integrated on the Alabeo webpage. Nor do I have the GTN unit. JCH

I'm having some odd moments with this AP. Before takeoff I set the Alt Alert to say 9,000ft and arm it, then hit the FD and HDG on the AP. Takeoff set things up for climb out and hit the AP on the mode selector and nothing happens in either the VC or popup, only way to get the AP on is to hit the Z key. At this point everything seems fine. The problem happens when I hit Nav on the mode selector to follow my GPS route in the GTN750. Nav lights up along with Nav1 and GS? Then my pitch goes crazy and the plane goes into a sharp climb and stalls. Any insight into what might be going on would be very much appreciated.. Thanks Martin

In trying to find some basic T/O, climb out, cruise and descent, approach settings. Even an old dream fleet or Flight1 manual for 'general' references. Like others ...I agree Leaning is a b*tch. Additional fuel flow gauges would be helpful. [Control X doesn't auto adjust mixtures...which I don't normally use] I DID come across this RW owners comment in a 421 pilot forum. ......."with 500 hours in both B and C models. I never had a problem with them. BABY the engines. factor 40 GPH even 50 GPH for conservatism" "Start pulling back power at 25 miles to 23 MP, then 20 miles out to 20-21MP, 15 miles at 18 MP and so forth. I believe you should be landing…

The actual C421C Info Manual describes the Aux Fuel Pumps as 3-position (OFF/LO/HI) with different settings throughout the checklist. I have submitted a ticket to Alabeo to make the change from 2-position to 3-position.

Does anyone know abbout a existing PFPX template for this bird? I would really like to plan more "proffesional" than just using rules of thumb

Many may not care, but if you, like me get annoyed at the pitch wheel animation in the virtual cockpit, showing the wheel moving in the opposite direction of where you are moving it with the mouse wheel, read on.. If you are not faint of heart and have a hex editor, like HxD, open the interior model file that matches your GPS.. in my case the GTN model, and search for "pitch".. (maybe make a backup copy first).. About the third hit will get you to: (M:Event) 'WheelUp' scmi 0 == if........{.. (>K:AP_PITCH_REF_INC_DN).......... (L:KNOB_APSEL_SR22,number) 6........ - dnor (>L:KNOB_APSEL_SR22,number).......... }.. (M:Event) 'Whe…

The Alabeo C421 description page now indicates v1.1. Does anyone know the changes? I've asked Alabeo the same.

Am really excited about this C421. I fly the Alabeo 310R old Carenado 340II and the 441 Conquest. Besides the panel layout appearing to be the best with the old steam gauges and ability to integrate GTN750.. My question is can someone that has the 310R or Conquest tell me how the graphics (interior, gauges specifically) compare? I'm hoping the 421 has crisper , more readable gauges. [the 340II is old so not a fair comparison] Appreciate all the interest and good info on this A/C most of us piston twin fans have been longing for.

My 1979 Cessna C421C Info Manual mentions Cowl Flaps as a checklist item with "(if installed)". I don't believe this Teledyne GTSIO-520-L engine includes cowl flaps. Does anybody know which models/engines do include cowl flaps? I suppose the A and/or B models.

Has anyone come up with a way to turn off the overhead and cabin lights when the panel lights are on? If I click the dome light switch the panel lights turn off. We should have to option to turn the overhead off and cabin lights off and Have just the panel lights. Has Alabeo become that lazy?
