I think the MU-2 certainly deserves its own texture thread, so here it is. Al

If you find the Seatbelt and No Smoking switch chimes are not working in your C441 an update fix for this is here: https://flysimware.com/website2019/cessna-441-conquest-ii/ The download contains two new files -- a cab file and a sound file. Use them to overwrite the existing files with the same names. Al

Hello, just bought this great aircraft before few days but, one things not clear for me. When start descent egg from FL290 with verical speed cca - 1700 i must kepp throttle at cca 90-95% to keep IAS around 220-240 kts, is that normal ?

I am happy to report that all the problems I was having with the MU-2 NAV equipment and autopilot have been resolved. I just completed a flight from Kennedy in New York to Boston Logan without a hitch, including silky smooth waypoint turns. I just fell in love with this beautiful plane all over again.

In a lot of the FSX MU-2 videos I've seen them start outside the plane, enter through the door and move through the cabin. Are there key commands for doing this, or is the capability limited because of FSX?

my MU-2's autopilot stopped working, and now the GPS won't turn on. Both of these worked perfectly when I first installed the aircraft. I did an uninstall and reinstall of the aircraft with no luck. Is there a master avionics switch somewhere that I may have accidentally turned off? I'm really frustrated! I've never had this much trouble with a payware aircraft before. I need your HAAALP!

The autopilot switches on my MU-2 won't light up. The NAV HOLD switch seems to work, but the ALT HOLD switch does not. The first time I flew the MU-2 everything worked fine, but now it doesn't. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Good day, friends, I bought the Flysimware C441 Conquest II v2.5 in early April 2023, via Simmarket. The AP works well, but the AC does not follow the pre-planned flightpath. Possibly it's some problem with the Autopilot Mode Selector. What am I missing ? If there is a bug, is there a workaround for it ? Thanks a lot, I love this bird, but navigating for longer distances without following the Flight-Plan may turn out a bit tiresome. - Thanks a lot for your input. Kind regards, Rene

I'm running P3D V4.5 and just installed the MU2. The landing and taxi lights are so bright that they illuminate the ground and sim objects even on a bright, sunny day. I recall getting a fix for this issue for the FA50. What can be done to make the lights more realistic?

I have tried adjusting the CH products pedals but rudder control seems to be erratic. Is there any settings in the aircraft config file itself that would help this particular issue or can someone give me advice on exactly where to set the null zones In the rudder configuration? it just seems to be erratic, overcorrecting etc. Thanks!

Hi everyone, Just a quick question. I use the CH Yoke with P3dv4.5 calibrated using FSUIPC. I set the pitch trim in the panel to the green line but find while hand flying after takeoff, I’m pitching up and down all over the place. Any turbulence exacerbates my lack of stability. Watching the tutorial videos, the aircraft appears very stable while hand flying. I am wondering what techniques others use during take off and hand flying 🤔 Any help would be great, Cheers Nathan

Has anybody a working radar in MU-2 with P3D 5 and Milviz WX Advantage ? I'm in doubt whether to buy it or not as my old version is not compatible with P3D5. Thanks for your help!

I am having trouble controlling the autopilot. 1. “Z” turns it on but will not turn it off 2. Clicking the green autopilot button turns it on and usually off, but sometimes not, then I use the SBY on the panel. 3. Under autopilot, when I use “ctrl-H”, the heading bug moves to the current heading but the HDG light on the panel does not come on – I have to click it on 4. Under autopilot, when I use “ctrl-Z”, the aircraft captures the altitude but the ALT light does not come on – I have to click it on In essence I am finding its operation erratic and wonder what I am doing wrong. Nigel Vancouver ps great aircraft, I fly it all the time…

Got this plane this weekend and I love it ! Just studying some real world checklists and manuals. I was a bit puzzled that this plane has an APU, although no APU controls are in the plane. Is the APU just a GPU ?

I'm having trouble updating my older version of the C441 to the latest 2.5. I've tried using the product page, but there doesn't seem to be a way to update the product. It may be a problem with my having bought it originally under an old email address, but I have since had to change it and now no update method is offered, as far as I can tell. What can I do? Stew Edit: Sorry for the false alarm. It seems I ordered the product from PC Aviator, and I have just finished dl-ing the newest version. I'm embarrassed my memory is perhaps not as good as it should be! But all is well now!

Hello, I'm looking at buying the FSW C441 but after reading the various web pages with product info, and FAQs, I'm a bit unclear on 3 questions: 1) Is the C441 compatible with and will install into P3D v5 HF2? 2) I have both the F1 and RXP GTN 750s. On the FAQ page it says to use an aircraft with a GTN just select that variant when you select the aircraft, but that's referring to old FSX aircraft selection screens. P3D does not, to my knowledge, offer variant choices other than to list them as separate aircraft. 3) Also, the FAQ refers to selecting a variant with the MilViz wx radar. I don't own the Milviz weather radar. Can I select an aircraft…

Howdy all, Just a quick one but does anybody know how to make the sun visor in the MU2 go away? It fills the windscreen and makes every day look overcast. Clicking on it only lowers it more. ta muchly Warwick

Hi everyone, I've been flying the MU2 for a couple of weeks now and feel I'm getting used to it (finally!). I've got a Saitek Panel which I'm using for the Autopilot with no problems until yesterday. For some reason the indicator lights on the MU2's AP underneath the glareshield are no longer illuminated regardless of the AP condition. Everything still works just fine and all the AP functions are normal but it's a little disconcerting when there are no lights on the dash to show which function is selected. The same thing happened with the lights on the overhead panel lights. They used to illuminate to show the status of the external lighting but no…

Hi everyone, I've been mapping the MU2's Autopilot controls to my Saitek hardware following the key assignments in the manual. What I can't seem to do is find a way of mapping the Altitude Select dial in the cockpit. Does anyone happen to know what LVAR or Event it uses? Many thanks Warwick

Just installed version 2.4 and according to the change log the seat belt and no smoking chime was added. I don't hear the sound. I am using FSX in W7. Is there a setting I missed? Maybe not modeled in FSX? No big deal! I love the aircraft! 😀 Al

G'day everyone, I'm new to the C441 and just getting used to it. On my second day of flying it, I've noticed some weird behaviour. On switch on the battery the right engine starts turning and there is a clicking sound. If I push the starter, it kicks into life. Surely this isn't normal? I tried this without Spad.Next running to test if there was some odd connection between the two and same thing happened. I don't remember this happening yesterday, Does anyone have any idea what's going on and how I can fix it. I mean it's nice that the engines start and all but I'd like to be more in control of it. Cheers Warwick

Hi, I am in the search of a config for the RealityXP GNS to work with the C441 but I can't find any so far. Maybe someone is aware of such mod?

The gauge is not showing turns nor up or down. Did a couple of reinstalls. This the updated versions. No Antivirus sw installed.Thanks.

Am I the only one who feels the Flysimware MU-2 is the funnest turboprop twin available in prepar3d? The aircraft is remarkably dynamic. While not quite the fidelity of the Majestic Dash 8, it's a very different aircraft and mission profile, and it's quite well done. I love how the aircraft behaves on approach or when slow and low - it will bite you if you get stupid, but if you fly it properly, it's sooooo smooooth. I find myself loading this add-on more than any other, despite having a very large library of add-ons. The MU-2 is an insane performer - very high lift when you want it, tiny toothpick wings with the flaps up, excellent power with the throttles…
