Flysimware Turboprop Aircraft

Hi, When I load the MU-2b in FSX, then go to Maintenance panel (Shift 1), and select Ready to start or all systems off, nothing happens. If I reload the aircraft, the engines are still running. If I exit FSX, restart, and reload the MU-2b, the engines are still running. I get a click spot when I try to select ready to start. I can fly the aircraft in default engines running, with everything apparently working as it should. However, at the end of the flight, when I am ready shut down the engines, I cannot get get the engines to go into locked. I make sure the condition levers are in taxi, retard the throttle to 10% reverse and then back to idle, but the engine stil…

Hi, What's the recommended fuel management technique on the MU-2? I'm tempted to follow the practice common on airliners to burn from the center tank first to reduce wing loading, but not sure if that is advisable on this aircraft. Thanks.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has a mapping for the go-around button on the MU-2. Manual doesn't mention any. Would be handy to map to my hardware. Hunting head down in the VC in IFR at minimums trying to click on the side of the throttle is a recipe for disaster in this high-performance ship. Cheers Zenji

Has anyone figured out the LVARS for binding lights (TAXI, LANDING, STROBE) and or Fuel / Engine controls to hardware ?

Love this plane. In v5 after clicking off the green hue the windows are still hazy. Look at the areas that are circle its clear. Is it possible to get clear windows? I like the high wings .I can fly fast and look at the scenery. Thanks.

Anyone know if its possible to map the conditioner lever to an axis in P3d ? (as in prop)

Used the new installer to put the MU-2 in v5. Looks great. These look like new exterior textures? They have a PBR essence!

Hi Guys, I am getting back into the MooTwo after a long time sitting in the hangar. I have re downloaded her and put her into Prepar3d v4.5 HF3 (Waiting for v5 to iron out the initial release bugs) 2 questions :- Have I got the most up to date version or do I have to donwnload and add the 2 updates from the FSW website? I have a lot of external buttons/switches...Is there a list of Lvars anywhere so I can assign non default events via Spad or FSUIPC? (Or is there a LINDA module) Thank you Dave

Hey Guys! Just a head up. I just noticed that In the RDR_GTN panel the transponder gauge is missing and is not related in the panel,cfg. I just copied the FLYSIMWARETranspondertransponder.CAB gauge from the RDR_GNS panel folder and also copied the respective VC ([Vcockpit12]) into the RDR_GTN panel.cfg. Now works OK and have a functional transponder unit in the RDR_GTN panel option. Best Regards, Roberto

In p3d v5 the right window is not clear. I click to remove the tint on both windows.But on the right window the tint is remove but there is a haze there. The left window is clearer than the left. Any one else see this?

Then the sims V5 will crash. I follow the instruction over and over cause I want her to work in v5. Has anyone got her to work if so how? Thanks.

Quick question, I tuned the GTN750 to the VOR at Louisville IIU. I started to receive the beep of the audio of the navaid. However, I cannot seem to find how to turn it off? Any help as it is very irritating.

These textures are presented as an alternate to the base interior textures. These textures are an artistic representation of a slightly different interior and feel of the wonderful Flysimware MU-2. These are the first published alternates, and as such may be updated as needed as I dig further into this project. Textures may be obtained here...https://www.dropbox.com/s/tw4u6yuah8v65fm/MU-2%20Alternate%20Interior.zip?dl=0

Dear: I recently purchased Flysimware MU 2B 60 for fsx Acc and p3d v3. 1. The beacon sound is much higher than the engine sound. I wish I could increase the engine sound and decrease the beacon light sound in the cockpit. 2. Taxi speed increases continuously. I have to put the power levers to reverse to reduce speed or apply brakes. 3. I read the GPS 530 VNAV info but I need a good explanation and a VNAV tutorial specifically for MU 2 B60. Could you please help me? Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Hi all, I would like to ask, is there any C441 liveries available to download except the one that the plane comes with? I searched in avsim library but couldn't find any..

Instead of the % torque going up slowly to 18%-20% before engaging the engine, it stays on 0% then all of a sudden it jumps to 20%, is this correct. Seems like before I updated to the latest version it went up slowly which I suspect is how it should be? Thanks Martin

Hi Folks, OK - had the Moo Two for a while gathering dust - perhaps I never gave it a fair shake - so I grabbed the latest version and loaded it up in v4... I think part of my initial dislike - is everything in the VC seems congruous - all done to a certain level of quality - and perfectly acceptable to me - then there's that glaring little inoperative switch panel under the "No Yoke" flag that doesn't belong - looks like someone taped a screenshot on the panel - every time I look around it catches my attention and I shake my head - it doesn't fit... "No Yoke" tags need to be small and subtle - please look at Carenado or MilViz for an example... OK - that …

I would like to stay current with P3Dv4.5hf, but unfortunately, both these aircraft crash the sim. We can't get past the load up screen. And I have current versions of both aircraft: 2.3a and 2.5. What'll I do? Thanks, Stew

Ok, after this last update that allowed in flight startups and shutdowns. I noticed the props stop turning after shutdown at around 50-60 % RPM! Way to soon. This is a direct drive engine, the prop is attached to the gearbox. Prop should spin till almost 0% RPM. It was closer to normal the other way. Please take a look see when time permits. Thank You David......RW Pilot

Doing some research about the FSW MU-2 product before buying, found this image here in avsim library in which prop blades are feathered "backwards" as shown by the de-ice boots looking back...(in a correct feathered position, the de-ice boots will be orientated forward as they are on the blade leading edge). I cannot tell if it has been corrected already, but if not, may be of interest to fix it in the next upcoming update... Regards, Carlos

Any chance of getting the G600 from Flight1 in the flight deck?

For a while, according to ark in FSW General Forum☹️ Best, David

Shes absolutely beautiful!! Flew her back from boca to orlando fl and i Must say im impressed, flies like a dream and Im loving the Garretts more and more, but wow, what a little performer! Anyway, Did some searching and read up on the whole beacon issue lighting up the VC, apparently no fix for p3dv4 for now..which honestly doesnt bother me all that much, i just dont use the beacon for now. however, I had a question hopefully someone else has experience. When sitting on the ramp shut down, Ive got the same issue i had with the falcon (which was as easy as adjusting a line in the sound or aircraft cfg.). Im hearing a looping turboprop sound thats fairly faint b…

I recently purchased the MU2, love it. I noticed that the tutorial videos feature the Reality Radar unit (which I have) on the panel and I was wondering if I could get the Panel. Config file that has that so I could substitute it for the one I have?

When I choose shift-2 the Fuel Map and other options appear. However the level of fuel in each tank is blank. How do I get this to work? I am using MU-2B version 2.5 in FSX. Thanks for your help! Airbus
