Carenado 182. When I land and "Shut Down" the engine. If I go to the outside view the prop is still spinning. (Slow but still spinning) Not the wind because this happens when its calm out and no wind. Any idea how I can fix this? Thanks Walt

Good day folks, Although I have purchased the Carenado Seneca and Skymaster shortly after release only yesterday I did a couple of flights in them. I noticed with both aircraft that when checking props the RPM drop with the propeller lever all the way back is hardly noticable. That is with RPM at 1800 during runup. In flight, with a higher MP and RPM the drop seems larger. Is this normal? I've seen a review of the Seneca where the RPM drop was significantly larger during the prop checks. Also, with the Mooney there is no problem; RPM drop is as expected. Curious about your findings

Not sure who I should report this to but thought i'd share to see if anyone else has seen anything like this. I was flying last night from KATL-KMDW in the Fenix on Vatsim. I was using DD Chicago City and DD Midway. The flight was going smoothly and I was flying the FISKK4 approach and was given vectors to final. I was cleared for the approached and established on the localizer. Once cleared to land, i switched off the autopilot to fly manually. Before you ask, yes I activated approach. As soon as I turned it off the speed went very high ,then low then high and the plane started to bank wildly to the right. I turned off the auto thrust to see if I can manually get …

Having not installed a new NV driver since Sept '21 I decided to try a couple of the latest game-ready drivers. I uninstalled the current old driver first, then used the clean install option in the installer. Got absolutely no improvements in anything visually or otherwise except was getting some slight 'shudders' for lack of a better word. Kind of brief shimmy/shudder randomly but regularly--yuck!! This was with the latest driver one, then one from a few versions back, same same on both. Reinstalled the one from last year (472.12) and all was back to normal. One has to wonder how many folks with odd issues like this stem from the driver. No, I did not do the "deep…

Started flying the Fenix A 320 on a flight from KFLL to KTPA and just had my 3rd CTD enroute. Haven't had a CTD in over a year. Hope this is just temporary.

In an everlasting search for the closest to the real world experience, I'd appreciate if you could tell me your observations on what's the most realistic setting under,: -Accessibility-main colour-default/protanopia/deuteranopia/tritanopia????? -Sound-music selection- colour 1 or 2???? I've never heard someone asking this question and unless we answer them all, we'll never be sure where did we stuck and our quest might be brought in jeopardy!

How can everything be working fine in a session and then you shut down, make no changes but next session has issues? (content manager not working) I mean, I get it but don't like it if I made a change and then it doesn't work but to literally shut down and have it broken when I start it up again is just ridiculous. Only thing I can think of is that there are changes being made by Asobo that I am not aware of. Is anyone else have this happen? LouP

Hi fellow simmers I have KB T-Rudder pedals MK IV, and have them configured via FSUIPC. They settings work fine on all other aircraft including the PMDG 737-700 - for both taxing and landing - if needed. With the Fenix A320 the pedals work fine for taxing, but when I touch down and use the rudder pedals to 'correct' my alignment - I go all over the place - usually off the runway. Any thoughts and/or solutions?

Hi guys, unfortunately, the support at Fenix Discord channel isn't that great, so I'm trying to find an answer here. I always fly during daytime, so it's really annoying that I always have to turn the cockpit lights off when starting up the aircraft from the default pannel state. Is there any way to edit the existing panel states? I haven't found the file that holds those parameters. Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, anyone got a trick to make the PMDG nose taxi lights to actually light up something ? They are very weak and do no illuminate 5 meters from the plane. I tried this addon called "new light" and the problem is its making strobe lights and beacon lights really OP. Is it possible to maybe just change a value somewhere ? thanks !

Does anyone know of a utility or program that can inventory the payware and freeware airports installed in my Community or other folders, so that I can plan flights? I use Simbrief for flight planning, but looking for a program that lets me know I have flown KBOI to KPDX, but not KSEA to KSAN. So a program that can suggest flights based on installed airports and perhaps maintain a record of what I have flown. Thanks for any info.

When I search for EGLL in Content Manager/Installed I find both the Iniscene EGLL & the Premium Upgrade, which contains the Asobo EGLL. I want to use the Iniscene EGLL but when I go to delete the Asobo version, it deletes the whole Premium Upgrade package. Is there any way to just delete the Asobo EGLL? Do I need to go into File Manager & take it out there?? T45

I was trying to fly the Diamond DA 62 and realized that there are two engines. However, my Thrustmaster warthog throttle is not setup for split engine throttle. I went into the throttle settings and found that there is only one Axis (Z axis). How do I separate the split throttles to have the left to operate the left engine and the right throttle to operate the left engine?

I have noticed over the past several months, there is no longer any lightning flying into known thunderstorm areas using live weather. I fly almost 100% on VATSIM. Is live weather broke concerning this issue? Thanks for the replies in advance.

The fabulous FlyByWire team updated the EFB in their experimental version, now showing passengers boarding in the weight and balance section of the EFB. They again did a fantastic job. Thanks much FBW team.
