Re: CloudAhoy and P3d v4.3 and above

Hello... I switched from P3d over to X-Plane 11 to support real world flight training. P3d with the A2A Cessna 172 just did not have the physics needed for other than normal flight. Stalls were a mess. So I tried X-Plane and added the SimCoders REP addon for the C172. Great result. That said, I have...

Re: Throttle too low at idle

Already addressed FSUIPC. Don't use it. Don't want the complexity.

Looking for a solution inside P3d calibration.

thanks

Throttle too low at idle

I fly the A2A C172 with P3d v4.3 using the Saitek Throttle Quadrant. My idle invariably is at just below 500 rpm. I want idle at 600 - 700 rpm. I tried to position the throttle during the P3d calibration mode so the range was limited. Thinking that on return to P3d the remaining reduction would slow...

Re: CloudAhoy and P3d v4.3 and above

Thanks. CloudAhoy does seem to imply that they work just like Foreflight via the Broadcast GPS function.

Do you use CloudAhoy with P3d?

Re: Cessna 172 model available?

The best C172 and C182 physics and flight model are from A2A Simulations. I am using their C172 with a Yoko Yoke / 60 " TV / MFG Rudders / Saitek throttle and trim / Desktop Aviator Flap Switch / Track IR5. My new CFI is very happy with the set up and is training me in my sim to help me reduce ...

Re: CloudAhoy and P3d v4.3 and above

Thanks.. Basically the same method as I referenced. Could you or anyone else clearly confirm they are running CloudAhoy in P3d using this method - AND without any glitches or problems? Sorry to be persistent. Just don't want to get started with the CA trial period only to find by trial and error and...

CloudAhoy and P3d v4.3 and above

The forum does not show any posts on this topic. Foreflight links to P3d v4 via a GPS connection as follows: In Prepar3D v4, open the Application Options dialog box. Then on the Options menu, click “General” and then click the “Application” tab and Enable “Broadcast GPS data to network”. I am a stud...

Thanks..

May be... As long as no one asks me what P3s is. :-)

RESOLVED -- VC Pixelates due to new Monitor

Keep digging away at this issue. I did a few things and got this fixed. I also developed flickering and had to do some more research. Here is how to resolve this kind of Resolution and Touch Screen Issue: -1- Check Box to "Disable Full Screen Optimizations" - HOW -- Right Click P3d Shortcu...

Re: VC Pixelates due to new Monitor - Help!

I know this problem is a bit quirky. I searched the forum as best I could before posting. Found nothing similar. Let me add... After starting P3d, I load a saved Scenario, I then load the saved Controls Settings relative to my hardware. The purpose of those saved Scenario and Controls Settings files...

Re: VC Pixelates due to new Monitor - Help!

Thanks. But..Air Manager is not even running when this problem arises. So take Air Manager out of the discussion. I mentioned that aspect only as background to this story. There is an interface here between the computer software Windows 10 and P3d and the monitor hardware that may hold the solution....

VC Pixelates due to new Monitor - Help!

I have been working to set up a new 23" touch screen monitor to run Air Manager with the A2A C172. In order to activate touch input, this monitor must be the "Main Display" in Windows 10. This caused P3d to initiate on the new touch screen rather than my 4K TV. Then and of course, whe...

Re: P3d 4.3 Control settings not saved

In case others come to this thread, there is a workaround. For those affected, this is a way to save and then recover your control settings and work around the reset to default settings. Start P3d. Load a Saved Scenario Go to Control Settings and establish all key and axis assignments as desired. Ex...

Hello Senchay... The topic is as intended. I explained three different ways to cause the ver 4.3 control settings to lose my personalized settings. I never mentioned anything about FPS. I actually don't even monitor FPS. I use P3d in support of my real world PPL training and find the performance jus...

Hi Jorgen... Yes and thanks for your interest and concern. I already indicated that I had taken due steps but your reading of my reply was it seems based on a pre-conceived perspective otherwise. I am not an uninformed or novice user. I have been in flight sim for a long time. Not an IT expert but I...
