Vinny003 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Posted September 30, 2013 Hi, guys!I got a feature request for Saab 340A airplane: is the Saab 340A variants like the newer Saab 340B with the custom FMS. Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Quote
Cameron Posted September 30, 2013 Report Posted September 30, 2013 This would be a whole other product on its own. Quote
Hueyman Posted September 30, 2013 Report Posted September 30, 2013 Ah la la they are so many in love with FMS, you'll have to make a -B variant some time in the years to come ;-) 1 Quote
Vinny003 Posted November 14, 2013 Author Report Posted November 14, 2013 Hi, guys!I got a feature for the Saab 340A: is the ability to refuel without using the x-plane's weight and fuel option. Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Quote
Goran_M Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 It's unlikely this will be added to the Saab, but we might add it to the Citation. Quote
pryoski Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 It's unlikely this will be added to the Saab, but we might add it to the Citation. It's a layer of complexity that might make it harder to fly in FSE ... The FJS 727 and Dash8 for example. I don't use them anymore because of those issues with their extra weight and balance stuff.

pryoski Posted November 15, 2013 Report Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Kris, Can you tell me why those aircraft are incompatible with FSE? Hi Theo ,Here's a link to the FJS Q-Dash8 forum where they discuss this.However, in case you don't have the access ... in a nutshell; the load and balance manager (quite innovative in and of itself) was conflicting with FSE's own method for determining load and weight based on the cargo/pax you choose within FSE (FSE has a python based plugin that connects to FSE and does all that stuff for you based on your assignment). For the 727, FJS have provided a work-around which involves disabling certain functions within the Load and Balance manager, and I believe this translates across in a similar fashion to the Dash 8. You have to edit the WeightNBalance.lua and disabled the "function update()" and the "function draw()". AFAIK this has not been confirmed, but I'm guessing it works as the thread never continued beyond that point. I have my own rather more elaborate reasons for not flying the FJS creations anymore on FSE or anywhere else ... Cheers! Edited November 15, 2013 by Kris Pryo Quote
