New ADV version questions about warning lights

Post by VetteDrvr » Sat Apr 29, 2017 1:37 am

First, I know I have to read the complete manual but I wanted a quick answer so I came here.

Today I bought the ADV version of the E model and I love it. I didn't get to fly the older version too much in my P3D 3.4 as I didn't have the time.

So today I made a quick flight and saw two warning lights. I figured some kind soul could give me a very quick answer to my questions.

Why does the red WHEELS light keep coming on when flying with the wheels up?

And what is the yellow STATIC CORE OFF message mean?

Thank you kindly.

Hi,

This light starts flashing when flying below 230kcas with the landing gear up. I think is to avoid a higher than necessary rate of belly landings. ;)

It means that the Static Pressure Compensator (SPC) system needs to be reset after being initialized. Otherwise, the corrections will not be accurate (nor the ADC output values).
(See TO-1, pag 1-33)

Thank you. Now if I can only figure out shy I'm not receiving email replies when people post back. I use the same email address as other forums. I don't understand it.
