Torbinator

Hello, caught this recently... 733.mp4

haha... TEASE!! Cool.

Hello, I noticed the mesh resolution of the left window handle is higher than the right. You can see the pivot point looks clearer on the left compared to right, and the polygon count looks lower on the right. See attached.

Hi Jan,, Well now that is weird. Attached is what I see. I have been using a fresh install and the Gizmo beta. Could it be the install gone bad or the Gizmo beta? Also note how a few times it "sinks" back toward its previous position. 2020-05-31_22-41-26.mp4

Hi @Litjan just to clarify... I do pull the knob out and see the M, and the bug does move, it just the knob itself does not animate the rotation. Although perhaps you're also giving a suggestion to Super27's quoted comment? Thanks guys!

Hi guys, In v1.3 the animation for the push/pull seems to work, but when I drag to rotate the knob on the ASI, the cursor moves but the knob doesn't turn. I didn't see it reported yet.

Excellent, I suspected it might be user error on my part. OK, so I should do the following: TOGA for the takeoff roll and ride the FD pitch cue to V2+15 At the acceleration height around 1000 AFE, hit FL CHG for the FD to adjust to the bugged speed, or... At the acceleration height around 1000 AFE, hit VNAV for the FD to adjust to the programmed profile Correct? Thanks!

Hi guys, I was hoping you might comment on whether or not the pitch cue behavior depicted by the flight director on departure was due to a limitation, a bug, or me not using it correctly. In this video you will see how when I move the airspeed cursor from 138 to 220, the FD's pitch cue seems to initially behave somewhat as one might assume for an acceleration by suggesting a lower pitch attitude. However, you'll then see how suddenly snaps up to a high pitch recommendation (twice) even though I have not come near to reaching 220. I narrate the video as it progresses. Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm enjoying the v1.3 update! I was hoping you might be able to tweak the point at which the mini EHSI disappears, which I describe in this short video. Thanks for your consideration! Mini_EHSI_Adjustment.mp4

Will v1.3 be compatible with XP 11.41? Glad to hear the radios are on the to-do list! If the 11.50 Vulkan release is still a bit blurry, I'm thinking some might wait till 11.52 or whenever it gets fixed.

Hi guys, I'm totally looking forward to updates! I was curious if v1.3 will give the rotating receiver switches functionality in adjusting ATC volume with clients that support it like PilotEdge and the next release of xPilot for Vatsim. Currently in v1.21 the knobs turn, but they do not adjust the actual ATC volume like they do in the Rotate MD-80 and FlyJSim planes. Thank guys!

It does, thanks!!

OK, so I'm clear: The approach page vrefs will change "on the fly" as we continue along, but once I select the one I want, it then stays that way? I couldn't find any performance tables in the included documentation. Am I missing it or is this something I'd go digging around online?

woah.... is this the AXEG?

Hi guys, I have a question about the IXEG and real 733. I was curious if the real 733 calculates / weighs itself for the landing weight at the destination, and then adjusts its vref for landing accordingly. I would assume once the pilots have entered the ZFW, the plane can read how much fuel it's burned and figure out how heavy it is during the flight? And, does the IXEG do this? One reason I ask is that there have been times I've done multiple touch & goes in v1.21, but I noticed the speeds for 30º & 40º flap on the approach speed page never changed. Should they update themselves IRL or in the IXEG? Or am I doing something wrong for it not to recalculate? Thanks.

Hi guys, Thought I'd give this a bump hoping maybe some progress was made for the next update. Weird that the problem never happens with the other X-Plane airliners. Looking forward to the next update!

Vijay, My gizmo tray was not deactivated, but I went to try Cameron's suggestion of deleting a file called Marker.1 anyway. The only files in the X-Aviation folder was Uninstall IXEG 737 Classicdat, XA_Uninstall.exe, and XA_Uninstall.data.

I'm getting a similar situation. The initial loading is fine. This happens for me if I go to another aircraft and then back to the IXEG. Although, mine shows the pilot's head. Here's my screenshot:

@Litjan, I am not courageous enough to modify any planes like the IXEG in plane maker! I was simply reporting the IXEG v1.2 performance in X-Plane 11.10b4 in comparison to how it performs in 11.05. When I fly it in 11.05, the trim values suggested for takeoff to put me on V2 +15 nicely. The amount of trim availability for cruise seems normal, and I've never run out of trim on landing when configured for VREF +5. If I take the IXEG v1.2 and fly it in XP 11.10b4, the trim values suggested for takeoff tends to put me well above the flight director suggestion and the speed bleeds off below V2 +15, requiring nose down trim. The amount of trim availability for cruise seems very close to full forward (close to 0 on the trim scale). On landing I seem to run out of nose down trim when configured for VREF +5. The aircraft is still controllable, I just need to keep a slight forward pressure on approach since I'm out of trim. I never thought to mess with it in plane maker. If there are any other specifics you would like me to report, I will gladly try to make those observations.

Okay, glad you guys are onto this because I noticed the same thing. I was frequently running out of nose down trim on approach, I also noticed obvious nose up pitching during my climb out just after takeoff.

Hi guys, I clipped a video to show one of my landing replays to help highlight a bug where the spoilers pop up rather than deploy realistically. As many might agree, we like to watch landings on replay from various angles as we pretend to be airline pilots, and watching the spoilers deploy realistically adds to the enjoyment! I hope this video helps. It was made in XP 11.05, but this problem existed in XP 10.51 as well.

Thank you, that is working better for me. Basically I'm letting N1 reach 40%, hitting my programmed key for Engage TOGA, then moving my physical throttle to the forward limit. Simulated throttle sets itself on the programmed takeoff thrust setting.

Hi guys... Prior to v1.2, I would turn the A/T switch on, lineup on the runway, and when the time is right I would advance my throttles forward and hit the N1 button once going past 40% N1. However, on the past three takeoffs in v1.2, the N1 button disengages somewhere along the takeoff roll. If you click on the link below and fast forward to 1:01:30, you'll see what I mean. In this video, you'll even see that the throttle position indicator outline appears simultaneously to the N1 button deselecting itself. Not sure what I am doing wrong, unless there is a bug. Thank you for any tips and suggestions. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/158871578

Fingers crossed on that one! I can deal with the other limitations knowing they'll be fixed in 1.2 or 1.3, but the nervousness of a soft crash while flying w/ online ATC and being asked to modify or switch a STAR was killing me.

No problem. I'll just wait till I can verify my machine is running tip-top before running my 733 again. If when I go to reactivate there is an issue, I'll reach out to support.
