first runs (P4, FSXSE)

Post by Tozzifan » Mon Jun 26, 2017 1:10 pm

Hello, here are my first doubts, which I did not find answer to in the manual

1 I cannot summon the 2D GPS panel after clicking onto the screen clicking spot, in the virtual cockpit: some readings, in VC view, are not readable, there (P4)
2 should the autopilot buttons become lit, when activated? in my case, they don't, either on P4 or FSXSE
3 the autopilot panel ARM and BARO buttons do not work; I'm asking this because everything is clickable on your product, so I'm doubtful whether that's the way it is intended or not

thanks for clarifications

The buttons on the AP do not light. Look on the display for indicators showing the mode selected.

ARM does work. While in HDG mode, click on APPR then ARM. The AP will fly the HDG until the localizer is captured, then switch automatically to the APPR mode.

On bendix king panels the "arm" button is for altitude pre select. I expected it to work this way and it doesn't appear to. I have never used "arm" for approach mode (before appr is captured) on any unit like this before.

Can we confirm intended use and behaviour in the beaver? Thx
