  1. Squawk Ident

    in Canadair CRJ-200

    Posted

    Hi Javier

    It is simulated. I have tested it in Ivao.. and it works. Please read the manual. It is a button labeled in the radio panel.

    Yes, I read the manual before posting  ;), but there it was still marked as "red". I am happy to hear, this is simulated as well.  :-*

    Whatever comes next in future updates, we will love it, i am sure. (as long updates are coming ;-) )

    BTW, Javier, we should meet on VATSIM one day >BG<

  3. APP Mode, catching Glide prior Path

    in Canadair CRJ-200

    Posted

    Hi

    @thiengo

    Thank you for your outstanding description of the APP mode. This SHOULD be in the manual as well. ;-)

    Basically the theory was known to me, i was just wondering why i.e. x737 is doing the APP Glide prior Heading and the CRJ is not.

    Some of my simmer-friends told me, there is even a button on their aircraft (MSFS Payware) to allow/override this (different a/c though).

    If the CRJ is that way in reality (means not a bug) that is fine for me.

    Happy flying

  4. APP Mode, catching Glide prior Path

    in Canadair CRJ-200

    Posted

    Hi, Pilots and DEV team,

    I noticed and tested APP Mode trying to catch the ILS (Glide) during VATSIM and Offline sessions.

    It seems to me, that Glide path is not being caught while intercepting the course from the side,

    approaching the glide path from below and not being on course OR already intercepting it (turning in).

    I now, this is working for other aircraft I have (i.e. x737)

    Is this the way, the CRJ APP Mode is working in reality or a "little" misbehavior.

    It works excellent when on being on course or intercepting (turning in, APP controlled) and catching the glide AFTERWARDS.

    Often you are being vectored to the ILS pretty close and asked to report "established" when intercepting glide and path.

    So it happened a couple of times, that glide is ready but your are still off from course, rady to turn in for final.

    Can you guys please verify that behaviour and possibly clarify this ?

    Thanks a lot

  5. X-Plane Crash After APU Gen ON.

    in Canadair CRJ-200

    Posted

    Hi Cameron,

    i can duplicate this.

    Most of the CTD's happen with GEN Switch to ON or very short after.

    If CRJ survives this moment, everything is fine for the rest of the flights w/o any Problems or CTD.

    So there must be something acting wrong here. ???

    (This happens also w/o any of my million plugins installed)

    You guys realy might want to look at this again

    Many thanks for this beautiful aircraft !!

  6. EICAS Pages

    in Canadair CRJ-200

    Posted

    Hi,

    thats easy,

    check the Pedestal, top center panel, underneath the switches, buttons PRI, STAT, ECS ....

    Can anyone tell me which page of which manual gives instructions on how to change EICAS pages?

    i.e. to check fuel, hydraulics, etc... I've done exhaustive searches of all three manuals, see mention of checking the different pages, see pictures of the different pages, but can't for the life of me figure out how to view them. Funny, I've also combed through this support board and find no one else's mention of it. I must be stupid or blind... would someone be so kind as to give me a page number or explaination? Thanks so much.

    Please help,

    Herbums

    PLEASE DISREGARD. Problem solved. It was indeed my blindness. Thanks. ;D

  9. Gizmo and Shrink Wrap Plugin

    in Canadair CRJ-200

    Posted

    Hi

    What are Gizmo and Shrink/Wrap Plugin doing for us ?

    Are they needed for flying the CRJ. I guess not.

    Oliver

    Mindless post. Stop cluttering the airwaves.

    Unqualified comment.

    If you know what these plugs are good for, fine and keep the knowledge for yourself.

    I still don't and

    the CRJ flies well without them...

    and I still like to know what they are doing now or in the future of this

    wonderful plane.

  14. [WINDOWS] x-plane crashes when loading CRJ

    in Canadair CRJ-200

    Posted

    NEW - So far my experience

    Hi

    have the same effects here:

    CTD when startup for the first time (cold&dark), on second load everything seems to be OK again.

    Just purchased CRJ200 version 1.1 and when loading X Plane/crashes to desktop (win7).

    Windows7 64bit, nvidia GTX470, 6GB RAM, I-7 CPU

    XPLANE 9.70

    SimplePushBack

    Checklister

    XACARS

    CRJ-200 1.1

    Oliver

    I tested the above config on three flights, no CTD while working the airplane.

    On 1st flight a CTD happened while excessively (re-)selecting SIDs/STARs.

    Will start testing all together with x-squawkbox (online) soon. StdBy for results here.

    BTW: Maybe we can have a list here (sticky ?) with tested (and working) hardware and software (plugins etc) including a system description in use ??!!

    Cheers

    Oliver
