OIl Pressure Guage and Cockpit Animations

[iandiss]

Hi Jim

Just purchased the Corvalis and I am running it in Ver 10.10r1.

The oil pressure goes straight to the maximum on the guage and the appropriate warning is displayed. This is a known problem as the later versions treat the nominal values as the maximum. I have been able to change this easily in other aircraft using planemaker and editing the limit values. Is it possible to do this with the corvalis and if so what values do I need to change under digital/oil p?

I also use the saitek proflight yoke and rudder pedals but the when they are moved the joystick and pedals in the cockpit do not move. The relevant control surfaces do move so it is just a visual thing. Are the rudder pedals, toe brakes and joystick animated?

Great little aircraft.

Dissy,

The nominal value for the oil pressure should be set to 45.

The control stick and rudder pedals are not animated.

Thanks Jim.

How do I change the nominal value in planemaker

Thanks Jim.

How do I change the nominal value in planemaker

Ian,

In Planemaker go to Standard -> Systems -> Limits2 (tab).

Second item on the left is the "Nominal Oil Pressure".. enter 45.. press RETURN

Go to File -> Save

Quit Planemaker

That should do it.
