  1. Past hour
  2. Yes, I have edited the P3D cfg and as far as I can tell my monitor does not have G Sync Also I disabled v-sync in P3D and still get about 80-100 FPS unless I'm in a heavy third party airport with AI. I have experimented with 30-50FPS lock but it has no impact on the missing textures. Screenshots of Atlanta and Boston but I've seen the issues in almost every city I fly to. In fact I don't think it's even missing textures so much as the night versions are not switching over.
  3. Why not both? Plus voice interaction. As close to real life / Vatsim as possible it the goal.
  4. I have nothing fancy in mind. For example my after takeoff items for the JustFlight BAE146 are: Engine Air - All 4 ON APU Air - OFF APU Master - OFF Both Packs - ON AC Pump - OFF PTU - OFF I had in mind to start these actions with a single button press on my hardware. Right now I have most of the switches bound to several buttons on my MFDs with LVARs. So far the LVARs seem to do their job. In high workload situations it would be nice to not switch these buttons one by one... Just press one button and they all get set in that order.
  5. I'm sorry but wrong Vic maybe?
  6. 110.70 is correct. 10 miles out you should be fine at 1,800, as the FAF height is 1,500 at 4.5 mi (NIMOY). Make sure you've activated the Approach and have transferred the active Nav frequency to 110.70. Then select NAV instead of GPS in the cockpit by pressing the button to the left of the AP annunciator panel so that it can capture the localizer. Finally, press the APPR button, either in the cockpit control panel at the base of the seats or on the annunciator panel (it's a QoL feature the developer added). The GS light is just an indicator. You don't need to press it.
  7. I will just put it here - it's not FSHud or any other ATC program, just default Windows AI called copilot (nothing common with aviation or MSFS):
  8. Unfortunately BATC isn’t programmed to understand that word. Lol
  9. It does. I have a button assigned for replies. Pressing it will transmit the “default” response. Will also change frequencies if you set it up that way.
  10. The TDS 750 will pull the ILS frequency from its database and insert in standby NAV 1 slot. You then switch it when ready. You can go to flight plan airport and click for info and lots of useful tabs there on runways/wx/ etc there is a frequency tab listing ALL known figures for that airport. ILS near the end of list. More than one of course for multiple ILS APRs but it should as mentioned be auto assigned when you LOAD the approach as PROCEDURE.
  11. do you want nice voices or a program that controls all traffic, vectors and reduce speeds to have correct separation...FSHUD any day for me.
  12. Interesting, Ray. Your description seems to represent what I see on approach to 23R, the end of the runway up to the numbers is quite steep then starts to flatten to the touch down markers. (Steep, but not unrealisticly steep) I aim for just beyond the touchdown markers to avoid too high a landing rate Stu
  13. You can play with Skyvector : https://skyvector.com/?ll=33.09039099125775,-116.8897247275592&chart=301&zoom=3&fpl= KOKB KMYF KRNM KMYF KSEE KSDM KTRM KHQM KPVF KMPI KAJO L41 KPGA UT25 KOKB
  14. Sort of: We would like to stress that although our candidates display properties consistent with partial Dyson spheres, it is definitely premature to presume that the mid-infrared presented in these sources originated from them. The MIR data quality for these objects is typically quite low, and additional data is required to determine their nature.
  15. You turn your head around and take a peek out the window. Did that in the RealAir Dukes for years 👀😉
  16. I believe we were taught to do this for that very reason. Most of us flying out of my home field in those days rarely announced our position (under moderate conditions) - we all knew the "active" for that period. However, I would have certainly recommended that a visiting pilot make the call, especially on a crosswind day. Many times the pattern would be empty... BUT, the next hour there would be 7 aircraft in the pattern - you better know the proper entry!
  17. Yes my community folder IS on my D drive and not what I originally said. 😞 I checked first how much data my C & D drives had then went ahead and installed all my addons from Content Manager. These all went to the D drive. Setting the Developer on and opening the virtual file System I was able to see the content of the official folder which had all my downloads in and the community folder which just contained two test files. I am still not sure how to point to the right place to have the right hand window ( in AddonLinker ) show all my official content. Pointing at the community folder only shows my test files. Maybe I should delete everything and start from scratch!! PS. not sure how to post screen shots
  18. Would appreciate some guidance on the steps to take to manage an ILS landing in the Turbo Duke. Using the TDS GPS I have an ILS approach into KBOS Rwy 33L with 110.70 entered in the Nav1 spot. I pull the Rwy ILS frequency. from either fsxmap or LittleNavMap. Now & then there can be a discrepancy between the frequency for a Rwy I am approaching & I think the frequency is given somewhere in MSFS Scenario, but I don't know where. I figure that the MSFS frequency will be the one the sim will be using. How do I find it? So, I am say 10 miles out at 1,800'. I am a bit confused about the order of what to push when as regards the APPR button & the GS button. Which should I hit first? T45
  19. By the way, just re-watching one of my videos, flying the Grand Duke, at 24,000ft over the Annapurna mountain range, I got 200 KIAS (airspeed indicator) and 256 TAS GS (TDS). Another by the way: How does one deal with the red line on the manifold pressure (piston engine). I've been practicing not exceeding it, not even during takeoff. What's the expert opinion on this? ... 3rd by the way: On my first flight, I was trying to figure out how pilots know when the cowl flaps are in the open/closed position during flight. On the ground you can hear the sound when they're moving, but this is not possible in the air. From the manual: I might as well add a 4th by the way: Absolutely loving the aircraft! 🤩
  20. I said the airplane profile, that always takes precedence over the airport profile
  21. Question: Does BATC support having a copilot do the communicating with the ATC instead of the pilot?
  22. Actually that aligns with real world behavior. Slow down enough to allow the prop to stop windmilling, and feather the prop. Once you have allowed the prop to stop you can accelerate back up, if the single engine performance will permit it. Your performance will be better than it was with the windmilling prop on the dead engine. Sometimes, after accelerating the prop will sort of "pop" turn a little and stop...turn a little and stop... turn a little as the engine is forced through the 4 strokes and returns to the compression stroke where it starts over again. The PT-6 version the feathered prop will often slowly rotate.
  23. Today
  24. Wouldn't the hat switch be similar to a key press though? I try not to be dependent on the keyboard, having too many things in front of my on my desk. Recently I've experimented by setting up a trim axis*. A hardware trim wheel would be awesome I guess, but I just don't have the space for that. *I'm using the "throttle slider" on my TCA Airbus sidestick. It works, sort of, with the right sensitivity settings. But it's in a very awkward position, being at the base of the sidestick unit. I was thinking about the rocker switch on the pedestal. It's super-awkward to interact with (much like in the King Air) due to it's position. But that's how it is in the real aircraft I guess. Clicking the top or bottom part of the rocker doesn't work well for me. Using the mouse scroll wheel = a tiny bit better. But in a high-workload situation, what usually happens is that I change the view, miss the rocker, then end up either zooming in or out of the cockpit view... I didn't even know about the hidden clickspot. It does seem to be here though: Currently on the ground, so I'm not able to test it.
  25. It's at 20-25000 feet. It climbs slowly as well, though. Usually about 110 Kts at 1000 fpm. I was under the impression from all the posts I'm reading that it should perform better.
