Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

I started with the DC3, for no very good reason (I LIKE DC3s!) and set it up with just battery power on, then switched from there. I wuill have another play this evening and see what I get.

Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

I've checked the Gauges folder and I'm pretty sure all the old CABs are out. I'll re-read the manual and make sure that I've not missed a trick during the setup - a complete checklist from "cold and dark" would be useful if anyone has such a thing.

Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

I'll give everything in the Gauges folder another look - think I got it all out but wirth a check. I'll also revisit the panel setup in case, as oyu say, I've missed something silly somewhere.

Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

Dave,

No problems. I've got a workaround that will get me going for now, so that'll do. No great rush, but if a definitive answer does come up I'll give it a try. In the meantime I'll gtet a few miles done! :flying: :)

Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

Created the flight with a default 737, got the power on, then switched to the Vanguard. The Start MIs (and the rest on the fuel panel) all work now, but the start still won't function as documented... :doho:

Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

OK, I'll give that a go - I did wonder if that might be a better bet. OS is Vista Home-64.

Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

Thanks for the replacement CAB file, but it hasn't solved the problem. None of the MIs on that fuel panel will work, and the start sequence doesn't work as per the manual. I have found that if I select the Start Fuel switch to OFF once the engine has started spinning up, even if the Igniter light ha...

Re: Flight tutorials - Vanguard and/or Viscount

I'm having the starting problem with the Vanguard 951/953. When trying to start the engines, the Start Fuel MIs are not showing ST...
