cloudfreak1 Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hallo IXEG-Team DME ID's (e.g. alf 115.80) not working ! large Brightnessknob of left ND rotates rong direction Question: in RL you have to press the pedales to set the parkingbrake. with your plane it is the opposite. is it possible to change this?

Litjan Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hallo Jürgen, I know about the DME ID´s - this seems to be an X-Plane issue - as there is no special procedure to tune and listen to them, compared to the VORs. The direction of the brightness knob for the Captain´s ND seems to be working fine on my end - make sure you are not misled by the "stroboscopic" effect when turning things really quick at low framerate (like a car´s wheels seem to turn backwards in old movies). The brakes don´t work exactly "opposite" - in real life you can depress the brakes to release it, just like in our plane. It is true, however, that in real life you have to depress the brakes to engage the parking brake, this is not modeled in our aircraft (we use the default X-Plane parking brake system). Changing the way the brakes work is not very easy in X-Plane, you can "fail" them (we do that to simulate them running out of hydraulic pressure) but to override them is a different thing (you can´t overwrite the brake dataref).

cloudfreak1 Posted July 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hallo Jan, to point a) roger b) look my video c) I mean, only setting the parking brake is the opposite in RL, the rest works as expected but not a real problem, was only a question Viele Grüße Jürgen B733_-_2020-07-21_14_48_43.avi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litjan Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 b. look at my video - I think the problem is you using the mousewheel, it will "jump" the knob by certain amounts, so it looks like it moves backwards (strobe effect).

cloudfreak1 Posted July 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hallo Jan , you are so right it is only with the mousewheel ,however not a real problem Viele Grüße Jürgen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is a good compromise... Bis dann, Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
