    How do you load your Airbus

    Hi all,

    just a question concerning the weight and fuel.

    How do you load your A320? Do you have any tools for that or do you calculate each section?

    Because I have some trouble about that (When I do not load anything the Airbus tourns up side down; When I load "too much" (GW56000kg) I cant climb higher than FL340 without any trouble/G.Load) it would be great to hear from all of you your handling about that.

    Thx
    Niklas

    Hi Niklas,

    I used instructor station (Luis Gordo's or FS-Flightcontrol), but now I have started to use Topcat. And I can give you my rcommendations. Very good program to load fuel, weight, calculate the decision speeds etc.

    Inject in fuel and weights with TOPCAT. Make sure you use the TOPCAT configuration file by ToTom.

    Hi Ben, hope all are ok

    Can you help me on this I start using TOPCAT with jeehell. I download the config file from your website and add it to the topcat. All ok I'm able to save the Aircraft config file on aircraft folder on JH but when I try to export the settings made on topcat to P3D v4 nothing happens or in other words when I launch the sim and go tho the payload section of P3d aircraft is always full of fuel. Am I missing something. How can I INJECT the fuel and weights like you had mention?

    Best Regards
    Pedro

    Hi Pedro,

    Are you using TOPCAT + P3D over a network? If so, you also need to use Widefs for it to work.

    Hi

    Thanks for the reply, I have TOPCAT installed in same pc as the P3D are, over network I have only 2 clients with JH software and fscockpit modules installed. Still do I need to have Widefs?

    Regards
    Pedro

    If TOPCAT runs on the same computer as P3D widefs is not required. Did you select the correct aircraft.ini within TOPCAT?

    Hi
    Well I add the configuration files to TOPCAT and on menu I can chose JH model with no problem I was able to create a flight with proper data on topcat then copy/paste the generated aircraft.cfg file on JH aircraft.cfg file. but when I run p3d and chose jh A320-214 it always show 100% fuel.

    Regards

    Re: How do you load your Airbus

    Why are you overriding Jeehell aircraft files? You are not suppose to copy and paste anything over. You will need to reinstall the aircraft (P3D aircraft model) again.
