Hi Stefan


Or rather heard from the company where I bought my cockpit modules.
The company always keep me posted on the newest state of JH, because I used the system for me.

Hi

Speaking of FBW....could anyone please lend some help on why my joystick input is delayed? Sometimes it may be as much as 1-2 seconds before my aileron and elevator inputs are indicated on the PFD. I am running the PFD, ND, FCU, etc on a wired network setup, using a CH Products joystick on the fsx server PC. Both PC's are running Win7 64. I have all firewalls disabled. I've even tried plugging the joystick both ways - directly to the PC and a powered USB hub but no change.

Please let me know if any other setup info could be helpful with diagnosing this and I'll be glad to share...hopefully I've just missed a simple but mandatory setup procedure

Thank you all very much! and of course to JL, for this incredible software!!

Alan, what computers are you using? Did you try to fly? Successfully or not?




Regarding B32, yes it's coming out soon, probably tomorrow. Not sure about the revolutions Rigo has heard about, but there are some changes. MAinly APFBW reworked a little bit (Flare law), and instruments application have had internal changes to fix some issues with dimming, XFR, etc...

Hi JL,
Thanks for your reply. FMGS server runs on my desktop PC and the client runs on a laptop via WideFS, quad core and dual core CPU's, respectively. I can successfully fly but due to the time lag between my joystick inputs and when the PFD actually displays the inputs, I end up chasing the FD cues and therefore my PX must feel like they are on a rollercoaster ....I believe it should be a lot smoother based on videos that other builders here have presented.

It just seems that something is interfering with the command inputs to slow it down...but I can't figure out what it might be. Could FSUIPC be a possible cause? I did revert back to v4.60 because I read that's the only one you could support for the offsets.

Thank you!
Kind regards,
Alan

If you use FSX, FSUIPC is not required at all.
Make sure you have installed the same version on all computers. Also, if you did use auto update on one computer, make sure you did taht on the others as well.
On a wired network, there should not be that much lag indeed...
Check the CPU usage of each application in the task manager.

For some reason I thought flare mode was in the latest beta...

In the next version are all flare modes of the airbus simulated (CAT III landings, trim down below 50 ft, etc)?

Thank you.

[jeehell]

Flare mode was included for at least a couple years. Was just not perfect. And here I talk about the manual flare law, not the autoland FLARE, which actually should be working realtively correctly. What's not so good during autoland is rollout mode.

Thanks for the update JH.

Anyone having issues with managed mode and speeds (not keeping to the programmed MCDU speeds) when landing? I have tried lowering my flaps, but I get warnings (speed, speed) and the autopilot disconnects (AP1 and 2 are engaged).

I am in approach phase and the aircraft does not slow down. I have to manual select speed (right click), and then put the plane in manage mode (left click) again before speed decreases.

Descent to Approach – You must Activate and Confirm Approach on PERF DES page. This will drive managed speed to approach speed.
Wait until the plane slowed to the VFE NEXT. Set flaps to the next position.
It must work properly

i do confirm ben: everything is working fine about speeds during approach as long as u perform it as prescribed.
...i totally understand u because i've been a "boeing owner" for long time....the point is just entering the airbus style
...fcom and fctm are your friends!
cheers
