Classic British Flight Sim

hi,

This is another beautiful aircraft, but I cannot get the autopilot to allow the control knob to turn...it will turn on, but won't allow itself to switch from Heading mode into any of the others. Well, not for me anyhow

Hi,

thanks for your assists Dave....from now it will be enough to set up a VOR to VOR flight plan, which works perfectly with the SFS reciever set to Off, the bottom switch set to the right (Nav 1) and Autopilot set to Beam.

Cheers,

Andy.

Hi, That has me flummoxed altogether..when I look at the flight map it's like a cat has been playing with a ball of red wool. The aircraft will turn every way but the right one and is quite happy flying 72* or 153* whatever is set! Perhaps it can only follow a Direct To command via the GPS. When my ...

Hi,

Thank you for all your assistance.
I will print it out and try to follow what is says!

cheers,

Andy.

Hi, Flying the ILS has been erratic and fairly unsafe, but that part I am getting to grips with on the Argosy, even if the passengers aren't B-) . What was/is proving much more interesting and awkward for me is trying to 'capture' and fly a VOR while on our way somewhere. This is what I was trying t...

Hi,

No worries. ..I didn't want anyone involved in the making of the Argosy to think that I was moaning about it, especially as I haven't understood the manual properly !

Cheers,

Andy.

Hi Thanks for your reply. I'm not complaining about this....I just wish I could understand what I'm trying to do. Some aircraft have different ways of following on from the previous one, but ?generally they'll follow a radio command, even if the engines stop from fuel starvation etc ! My set-up is F...

Hi, Just adding to this post. I have found it impossible to get the Argosy to fly on a beam in a simple manner. Even though with a very strange combination of lever movements to get anything to happen, eventually it will capture the beam and then fly at 90* to it :S . Switching to a CalClassic Conva...

Hi, I hope I haven't got hold of the dodgy end of the stick here, but I think the DC-6/7 from calclassics are turbocharged...at least it says so in the cfg. :cpu: ..as is Manfred Jahn's beautiful Constellation in all it's models. You need to change the settings to fly to altitude. Does supercharging...

Hi, Thanks for the guidance ! i think the biggest problem I have is to just do short flights from the default and then try to land with a full set of tanks :doh: . This is not a good plan, of course and coming in to land with 25% tanks allows the systems to work much better. Off to do more flying wi...
