Topic: But Flight - Problem solved Posted: 06 Oct 2014 at 8:58pm
Sorry near nagging around, but i have the feeling that I have wasted my money with 10-xl series.
Why I dont get answers in this Forum?
Why is there a manual with buttons and switches on the pictures wich are not in the Virtual cockpit? (Autopilot panel for exampel)
Why cant I set up my Altitude on the "Autopilot panel" - with this ALT SEL thingi on forepart panel it seems not to work or to set up a normal flight level... information technology snaps over some digits.
Why is this Fuel panel and then horrible confusing without Any words to the fuel arrangement itself? This one picture for starting engines does non say to do the things mentioned in the "Transmission":
"...and monitor and balance fuel using thecantankerous-feed levers on the Engineer'south console."
Why does my Stairs not appear?
Why is there aboslutely no word nigh Fuel planning or minimal charts for speeds or weights
so on... simply read other topics in this forum

But there is ane question left that is important. The panel.cfg change simply the ALT SEL when I go it right? But I cant find the ALT Hold or HEADING Concord switch (they both are on the AP console in the "Manual")
Thank you lot very much!

The information in that document supersedes the i in the original manual PDF.

Yes, but at that place is no help
" The operation of the Autopilot was inverse (updated and improved) afterward the initial release and the updated employ is detailed in the additional PDF transmission that is now included with the pack. Its located here:

I accept read that, and I thought it could be an solution, I thought "hey absurd, they have fabricated the autopilot more original" ...BUT, later a few minutes I was the first fourth dimension in the air with this airplane (I thought "wow absurd, engines survived the starting, engines stay running, then what tin can happen...)
The plane was out of controll, when I tried to modify the heading the plane followed my inputs in a hasty way, it banked for a few degrees, leveld out, banked again.... And it dives at his own discretion into a crash.
wonder how anyone can fly it, i am so infinitely disapointed
Also about the fact that I have bought it at an market without refund

Hello Scotty. After some time of testing and assay of the autopilot gauges I verified that the original autopilot produced by the evolution team of the DC-eight followed clearly attempting to leave the DC-8 in flawless operational realism. Unfortunately the configuration of all autopilots that use this setting to operate without the altitude selector have the feature to decouple Heading and Altitude when using the pitch hold, information technology happens in other aircraft of FSX using this kind of autopilot.
The back up team has no blame .The DC-eight is non an easy to operate aircraft in the existent world, and then much so that there are 4 people in the flight deck to etch the technical crew. The vast bulk of reported things similar bugs are really pilot operating errors in the cockpit. I changed just by themselves autopilot, since I could not use it when the change in position of the alt key lock automatically selects a flight managing director altitude and at that place is no way to alter it without having a usable alt selector switch. (this is a matter of the script gauge). Other bugs that I reported are minor operational value and but cosmetic unless mentioned RMI Serial 63 is pointing with her tail. Cheers in advance.
You lot tin run across at this link below the record of a 5 hours flight on the DC-eight/Vatsim

PS: I believe I deserve the textures WHAT IF #2 for free after this clarification!

Howdy at that place!
Plow cockpit tips ON!
Here i have no troubles with my autopilot after changes by my self the alt selector. You lot dont need to worry about the alt lock on the Flight diretor anymore. Follow the right sequence and be happy.
1-before takeoff gear up the altitude target.
2-plow the Flying director on
3-after 600 ft above footing turn the ap on
four-if y'all set the alt concord in the Flight DIRECTOR GAUGE(Not in The Autopilot Gauge) at this moment you will stablish the current altitude and the alt selector will be locked and needs to set alt target again(all autopilots have this characteristics)
5- Click down with the mouse wheel over the vertical speed selector. (Information technology will do the same affair descripted on the stride four)
6- Select the vertical speed when alt concord is on
7- Set the HDG or/NAV or/AUX on the Way selector .
8-Fly
To descend you need only to set the target distance and set the vertical speed, Dont forget to reduce the engine power.

In existent life the autopilot was not engaged until a few chiliad feet up if at all. I hand flew information technology many times to altitude, leveled it, trimmed information technology up and then put the autopilot on. Most of the guys I flew with didn't put the autopilot on till 10000 ft. Most approaches were manus flown, fifty-fifty a coupled ILS approach. The ILS was hand flown to just outside the outer marker and then engaged. This is non a modernistic plug and play automated jet where the call is prepare couple upward.

Not piece of cake to exercise it within IFR low visibility and bad atmospheric condition weather condition!
