Charts, calculations, and checklists.

Steven, Untrue. You still have a ticket pending a further response from you with a suggestion to fix this. Considering over 50% of our users are Mac and we can track install success on top of the fact that you see no other complaints here, I'm pretty sure you can safely assume Mac users are getting along just fine.

When it's released.

Tom, I have tested it extensively with non-released products that use Gizmo at their very core. I have never had any issues at ALL. To further this, I often times will use default aircraft (like the 747) as a testbed for Gizmo scripts that I create. The UFMC works great in these scenarios in conjunction with Gizmo as well. If you're interested in testing things out, go ahead and create a simple script for an aircraft (read through the Gizmo forum and learn how to make a simple dataref or something), and then test your aircraft with Gizmo and the UFMC running.

Checklists are included in the Pilot Operating Handbook when purchasing the aircraft.

Quoting Philipp from a previous thread: What you can't do is put VNAV on and leave the plane while fetching coffee. The real CRJ FMS has only very limited advisory capabilities, and they are, as the naming suggests, only advice, never carried out by the plane itself in an automatic way. For version 1.0 we have omitted this in the FMC, as it's value is minimal and we'd like to get this aircraft released. It's definitely on the consideration table for the future depending how well the CRJ performs.

Tom, I've read the post. Gizmo is very advanced in comparison to SASL, and any problems are usually related to a SASL product clashing with a Gizmo one. Gizmo is simply a terminal to feed info into from developers, so if you're having issues with a product and utilization of the UFMC, the problem is likely going to lie with how the developer has coded his/her scripts. Gizmo only does what it's told, just like a C plug-in. Saying Gizmo causes a lot of problems is relative. I could say that SASL causes me a lot of problems, beacuse, well...it does...relatively speaking.

Please don't post false assumptions. Gizmo works just fine with the UFMC, and always has. I use these two as a combo on a daily basis.

As the product page indicates on the same graphic you click to download the manuals, only two of the three are freely available. The third is only provided with purchase of the product. No, it's not. It's listed there as Bombardier.

Manuals released, Take Command! announced, 33 new photos posted. More info here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=2027.msg18998#msg18998 Enjoy!

Hi, All, The CRJ manuals are now ready for your viewing, along with 33 new photos of the aircraft in the gallery! You will also notice a new product line announcement titled: Take Command! More information about this is on the CRJ-200 page linked below, and a dedicated Take Command! page will be added shortly! Please take note of the following: There will be errors in spelling and grammar here. These were done by Javier (from Spain) and we have every intention to change these soon. That said, Javier's english is good enough to be able to interpret as well as enjoy just fine, and if you have any questions you can ask here! I actually enjoy reading a lot of Javier's work, so I hope you have just as much fun as well! It is incredibly important that if you intend on purchasing this product that you read these manuals and learn how to fly this aircraft! Thanks for the exciting times....25 hrs up without sleep, so it's my time to nap! You can get the manuals here: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=68

This is going to be heavily dependent on your level of enthusiasm and interest to learn the aircraft. Some people may pick it up quick, others may not. This is part of the reason we will be offering up the free manuals.

You betcha'. 22 hours and still goin'!

Just a simple oversight...we're all tired and excited at once! "Cam" is A-Okay. Thanks for being courteous!

And another...

I'm not Javier.

One more!

Just a quick shot to hold you over.

Yessir.

Probably not. I'll still get it out tonight.

Some exciting stuff coming along with this manual preparation. I'm off to take a small break for a late dinner, but when I get back shortly I'll be back at it! I won't be going to bed tonight until this manual set is released. Stay tuned! C

Thanks.

As stated, time zone is EST. Javier may live in Spain, but I don't. I am the one putting them online. Back later.

I've been reading in a few places about this, and have noticed there are a few misinterpreted items from the implementation of the new embedded FMC. The vasFMC embedding was done for the CRJ. While the core of vasFMC and this small tidbit of code is/will be public domain, the CRJ is still unique in it's FMC functionality to the true aircraft. I have read in various places that some assume the FMC provided with the CRJ will simply be a straight shoot of the vasFMC as it stands (which is based on the Airbus FMC). Such is not truly the case, and, of course, such code and other information used to make the FMC unique will not be shared with the public. So, while vasFMC certainly will become an option to many developers, it's not going to be a simple swap process, and aside from that fact, if left at default functionality it will not be true to the aircraft without the developers' hard work to alter the information and how it's passed around into the FMC itself. You'll need to get comfy with C.
