  1. As posted in the saitek post, I did a flight yesterday, I found the plane tends to hold its speed 5 KTS lower than set by the speed bug.
  2. Hi had to update was using wrong control for speed bug, But there is an issue the IAS it tries to hold is always 5 kts slower than what you set. Any other issues please let me know. But now plane does hold IAS you just need to set it 5 KTS higher than what you want. xsaitekpanels.ini
  3. Got my answer What is the purpose of T/O inhibit? Definition To inhibit non essential warnings during the T/O phase
  4. Ta. Enjoying this plane
  5. Wing anti ice is bleed air from the engine with rubber boots, watched them in operation one on the way to Brokenhill one winter years ago, was in a seat at leading edge and we had icing.
  6. Considering how long I have had this plane I have done more flights with it in last 2 weeks than since I have had it. YSSY to YBUD, to YARM back to YSSY than to YORG now at YBHI, which is longest flight yet, next is back to YSSY littte over 500nm but expecting a 35 kt tail wind.
  7. 1. What does the Take off inhibit button do, if anything 2, Is it possible to add a course scroll to the Min altitude Knob so its dual Course fine, Using mouse wheel to go from 0 to 600 ft takes a while and a lot of the regional airports have minimums around 400 ft
  8. I did try using reverses at gate. plane wouldnt move, breaks off etc.
  9. You need that torque gauge up, I noticed on last touch down if you dont get it right it can loose sync when you move the power leavers.

    I crashed

    Hmm I think i ran into icing, I was at about 17000 and it started to rain, suddenly AP disconnected plane off course, temp was below freezing, i was trying to find the outside temp when it all happened, below -4C, so I assume that what happened, might have to try again tomorrow. And try with boots turned on
  11. Its simple, you leave your Levers off, You use the mouse to drop the 340 levers into start position, once you start the engines you can move your prop levers, It isnt that hard, really.
  12. 340 Performance file for Little Nav map, its close, based on 1200FT min avg climb and 1400 FPM decent, which I find helps me slow down a little on decent. Navmap Folder should be in your documents folder. Les Saab 340A.lnmperf
  13. If you read the Panel where the Flap gauge is, flaps 1 and 15 is 175 Kts max, so yes they might break.
  14. It wont go below red line till gear has touched down throttle is synced and red line dissapears. That red line it to stop you going below flight idle inflight. It works well once you are used to it.
  15. If you check the documenation, its about right, you have to change vs as you gain altiutde,

    Taxi Light

    Hi could you please take a look at the taxi light, it barely lights the taxiway, but it light up buildings really well. may need a little down tilt. other wise I this is a really good update, pretty much flies by the numbers, fuel burn pretty close, so far did the Loop, YSSY to YBUN to YARM back to YSSY and without a hitch. Really enjoying this. Flew ILS approach nice.
  17. Cant see any window issues but nav lights glass hard to notice
  18. For me, i leave my physical prop levers at bottom. Use mouse to move levers into start position, Once engines have started I move the physical levers levers. It may well be a good idea to set a null at beginning of lever slope so they dont jitter doesnt need much.
  19. Hi. Nice update, now i need to understand operation,. Just completed flight from YSSY to YSDU and went well. A pic or 2
  20. Ok this works with Multi Panel and radio panel. Tried and tested. Course will need to be rechecked when they fix the current issue. xsaitekpanels.ini
  21. There is a version for the saab in the Xsaitek panels download link, I had to fix one item, when i confirm the one I have works ill pop it on here. So far so good.
  22. I think thats what I used to do, move the levers into position, than click the mouse to pop them in and start before lever jitters popped them out, or there could be some logic that once the levers are poped in you cant move them till engine start, but thats another problem waitng to happen.and more complication. Honestly easier to fly without them
