Al1 Posted May 1 Report Share Posted May 1 I installed the Hot Start 650 on X plane 11 and 12 and the stock BE58 altimeter now no longer works in both X plane 11 and 12. It starts up at an extreme high altitude and only rotates up, does not allow me to decrease the altimeter. I removed the 650 from the plugin folder and it now works fine, so the Challenger 650 is causing the issue. At first it was the primary altimeter and it switched to the secondary. I do most of my flying in the BE58, would love to learn the 650 airplane, but it can't be interfering with my other aircraft. Anyone have a solution or a why this is occurring as well as a fix?

Al1 Posted May 2 Author Report Share Posted May 2 Correction, it is in the aircraft folder of X plane under X aviation. I removed it on 12 and it fixed the altimeter issue on the BE58. Any ideas on why this started or how to fix it? thank you Log.txt Log.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al1 Posted May 2 Author Report Share Posted May 2 Here's a screenshot of the BE58, the standby altimeter is showing high and the Colsman window does not move, altimeter only dials up in altitude. First time I booted up X plane 12 it was the primary altimeter, now it's the stand by. Also wondering where to install the Avitab plugin so the 650 ipad shows the checklist.

Al1 Posted May 3 Author Report Share Posted May 3 why does the crew entrance door only open partially? I"m just trying to get back in the cockpit to see if the ipad show the checklist and it's only opening 1/2 way and closing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your problem is likely elsewhere. Try removing all third party plugins from your sim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al1 Posted May 4 Author Report Share Posted May 4 just a shot of the door hovering, it will not open. I only exited the plane to install the Avitab plug in and it won't let me open the door to get back in. The issue with the altimeter is being caused by the 650, I removed it from X plane 12 and it fixed the issue. I kept it in 11 and it still exist, so that is what's causing the altimeter issue. Should I remove and reinstall the 650? I would like to get to learn the airplane and eventually fly it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al1 Posted May 4 Author Report Share Posted May 4 I found a sit inside the cockpit button and the message to install Avitab plug in still shows up. I installed the links you sent me and no checklist on the ipad still. Why wont the door open too? They should show this on the promo video if this is how it performs. at least how to fix it.

I suggest creating a new airframe from the Airframe Manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
