1.
Radio Tuning
Conflict: There is a conflict between
the ARC radio down on the right shelf and the DC-3 type pop-up radio and the
one on the right shelf in the VC.
Answer: First, replace your radio section in the
aircraft.cfg with the following Radio section:
[Radios]
//
Radio Type = available, standby frequency, has glide slope
Audio.1
= 1
Com.1
= 1, 0
Com.2
= 1, 0
Nav.1
= 1, 0, 1
Nav.2
= 1, 0, 0
Adf.1
= 1
Adf.2
= 1
Transponder.1
= 1
Marker.1
= 1
This
will improve your manual tuning ability.
If
you are still not satisfied with the results, you can comment out the ARC radio
in the panel.cfg as follows:
//gauge26=ST_X38!Arc-5_Radio, 434,10,562,219
This is the
last gauge entry in the panel.cfg in the Vcockpit03 section.
2. Missing Gauges in VC Right Side Panel:
If you are missing gauges there, replace the following statements in the
panel.cfg as follows:
Replace these
lines:
gauge11=Ford_Trimotor!ammeter, 602,774,89,87
gauge12=Ford_Trimotor!ammeter, 733,771,88,88
With these lines:
gauge11=ST_X38!ammeter, 602,774,89,87
gauge12=ST_X38!voltmeter, 733,771,88,88
3. To properly feather the prop of a failed engine: To feather the prop (and get
it to stop) : Retard the throttle, cut the mixture,
pull the feather button. It will eventually come to a stop. Then shutoff the
magnetos, fuel booster, generator etc.
4. Airspeed Indicator Doing Extra Duty: the airspeed indicator actually
does one complete revolution before settling onto the correct speed.
Answer: It is corrected in the Version 2 release.
5. FPS Issue for some computers or video cards: If you are having FPS issues in the VC,
download texture updates. These textures
changes are common to all texture folders sp simply unzip,
copy and paste these textures to each of your texture folders.
