PaulBienvenue Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 Hi,In the Bombardier documents on Smartcockpit and in youtube videos, the flight director is not a cross, but an inverted V, like this:Would it be possible to get this?Many thanks!
philipp Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 This is a carrier option.Airlines can choose whether they want the software with the single-cue "inverted V" or the dual-cue "cross-hair".Personally, I like the cross-hair a lot more, but if there's sufficient interest I could make the single-cue available in a future update.Philipp
Cameron Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 Paul,In the very document you provide (the white image above) the cross hair is shown off to the right. This signifies the two variants floating around.

Count me in for having that option available if you decide to implement it.
Astronut Posted July 21, 2011 Report Posted July 21, 2011 I personally would much prefer the single-cue FD. I don't fly the CRJ IRL, but every airplane I have flown equipped with a FD used the single-cue format (which is very intuitive).
schutt Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 Any word on if you could change it to the V?
Cameron Posted April 21, 2015 Report Posted April 21, 2015 Any word on if you could change it to the V? No, this was never implemented.
