A320 FMGS B38

There is an update available, hopefully it'll solve the AP/FBW issue.

In my setup is perfect now.

Latest update seems to have fixed the issue, will do more testing.

Any idea why my sound.exe is looks like this, and why it disappears (application can't be located on the taskbar after a few minutes):

Attachment 10086

I have also been trying to test the rollout of the aircraft, it does not maintain centerline after about 10 seconds of rolling? AP1+2 still remain engaged and the pedals, sidestick has not been touched.

..........

Weather ACARS infomation on the MCDU MENU is now also not updating (server down?)

Updated, no FBW issues, flaps are good.

received an update to B38.6:


->> Address 000000 Read of address 0000000 at startup
Can click it away.

->> FD displays are still white, no display shown when used across the network.
(Ports are open and network is okay)
But if FSX, FMGS server are on the same PC, it works.

any idea?

thx.

Everything works fine now after the update. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Flying today with B38.6 in bad weather. On approach I was not able to slow down the ACT. I managed with full speedbrakes to get the speed back to 220knt with Flaps1 but then having managed speed at 160knts it continued to apply some power (about 30 to 44%) and speed was not reducing even when I had gear down. I know the A320 is hard to slow down but do you experience the same problem ? I had not that behaviour before.
Thanks,

Pierre

How much fuel did you have in your aircraft? It will not slow down on approach and managed mode if you have too much fuel.

Hi all,

I have a problem with the display MCDU.

My problem it´s the PROG and PERF grope, then coming a MCDU Display Problem.
My System is Win7 pro
is still, also with B38.4 or B38.5 and B38.6 with Update.
Other one Grope is OK.

Regards
Mario

Generally, during the maximum turbulence, the speed is always slightly above. This is OK. "AT is "asymmetric" - that is, N1 increases faster and the slower reducing it - thereby on the approach speed of the turbulence is generally a little higher than the SPD Target"

I spent a lot of time while working on PIDs to improve behavior during turbulence.

In general, the pilot should avoid turbulence. Especially heavy and severe turbulence ;-)
Turbulence in the FSX / P3D is a big problem. This is a problem for many addons.

PS. S-Turns problem has been eliminated in JHFMGS. It was difficult.
PS2. If you see that ATHR has a problem, start to control the throttle manually ;-)

+1. THX, JL!
... and weather ACARS working as well.

Thanks for you answers.

Only 3T remaining before landing.

You are right I did not experience any S-turn. I will disconnect AT next time. Also I maybe should not deploy spoilers in turbulence.

Thanks anyway. I have a lot of fun.

Hi everyone, this might be a little off topic, but I was just wondering if there is a way to save company routes to the MCDU, you create your own flight plan and save it as a company route to access later?

Thanks,

Jose

Hi Folks

Having an issue although the IRS is aligned I do get the "GPS PRIMARY LOST" message and the ND shows the "MAP NOT AVAIL" warning flag. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help

Cheers Greg

And also I must say, I would not pay for this thing. Its something experimental, a students exercise or so, that does not even work with FSX in a network...

Hi Netserv,

Just saw this post. The Instructor Station is by no means "experimental". It is used by hundreds of flight simuation enthusiasts, and flight schools for pilot training all over the world. You can find all details on our webpage: https://sites.google.com/site/luisgo...tructorstation

It is also part of several FAA-certified simulators.

Keys are processed on an individual request basis, and are sent by email.

Please send me an email if you have any questions or concerns.

Hey Luis

Your station works very well for me. I use it most of the time for setting up positions and pushback. I like it! :)

By the way: With the update the FMGS works like a charm again. no overspeeds in climb no more.

Thank you for the amazing work JL!

Alignment takes over 8 minutes, unless you do the fast alignment trick (read the Jeehell FMGS user guide).

This is not possible at this stage. It used to be implemented, but it was removed because of ?bugs, perhaps JL can implement it later on when he has time.

Hi Folks

I have made an other observation today. I was flying from LSZH to LPMA on flightlevel 340 and the plane was banking a little bit to the left and to the right alternately every few seconds regularly instead of a straight flight what I would have expected. Is this correct behaviour?

Cheers Greg

Hallo JL,

I just installed today's version 38.8 but after installing it on all the 3 PC there is no longer a connection. In other words, the client PC's don't see the server PC with P3D anymore. I downgraded back to 38.6 and all works again.

Best regards,

--pim

Hi,

With that information I cannot look for much...
any error message?
anything particular in any logs?

JL

Hi Guys!

same here, FYI:

Attachment 10107
this window comes several times.

I just corrected that error, update again.

JL

thats "high speed" support :-))

thanks Jean Luc !

Hallo JL,

Just did another update and all seems well again.

Thanks for the quick one.

JL is the king and he deserves a crown!

Hi community!

In case, you have similar problems:

Installed the latest B38.8 and the error message (system error 288 ) still occurred.
I found out, that the last update was not fully finished. There must be an additional download of some exe files after the update file (B38.8.exe) was downloaded. Retried it and then it was updating and the error vanished.

But there was still a problem with connectivity between FMGS server and the remote instruments right after an update.
I found out, that WideFMGSserver.exe on server pc and WideFMGS.exe on the clients have to be first deleted and then reentered in the firewall rules. After that, it works perfect again.

greetings, Guenther

Firewall rules? I think the best solution is to disable the internal firewall. I did this from the first day I setup my homecockpit and I believe to remember that most people here recommend the same.

Hi JL
After last update I have two problems:
1. Cockpitsonic's ECAM control panel works but not backlighted.
2. CPFlight's FCU works but LED digits got creazy...

Hi Guys,
because of the backlight problem...
Got the same issue with the Cockpitsonic Radio.

..........

@Stephan

correct!

I also stopped the firewall and disabled a lot of unnecessary services and Windows system functions.

BUT.
When I do FMGS updates (frequently like now), i use the firewall, because the system goes to the web, and I want to avoid to catch any desease in my clean network :wink: Can recommend this to you too...

I would prefer to update from my instructor station as source, which is connected to the web and has a firewall to inside the sim network. Seems not to be possible.

Also there is at least one PC with sqwawk box and running and this one is permanently on the web!

Hi Leonidas and Tcane,

I put an update which should correct these issues, keep me posted.

Thanks JL
It's OK now, but in my quick flight I noticed that pushing the ALT knob its dot doesn't turn on. Anyway, I'll see it again when I have enough time.

I have also had to go back to 38.6 as could not connect to the client.

Sorry for the short answer on the last post but I was using my Microsoft Pad and for some strange reason it is extremely difficult to type messages on this site, so much so that I normally write them on Notepad and copy and paste to this site.

Anyway the reason That I was having trouble may have been due to the Control installs which I had to re-do, so will do some more checking tomorrow and do an upgrade to the latest and report back.

Hi Jeehell, i have the FDS FCU, why at the start of FMGS server it doesn't pool the switch positions? for example i have set the switch to VOR 1 but the displays not show that i have to recycle it, same thing for the ARC or ROSE mode, can you sync it at the start?

Thank you!
