    Hey,


    The WIP a350 cockpit seems veyr promising, with an OIS and everything. I'm curious if things like pneumatics and hydraulics will be properlly simulated like ones on the A319/20/21? Or will it be like the 777/787 where the there are some simulation (and cockpit indication) but not actually affecting flight controls and things?


    Regards

    Hello.

    The 7M9 in game’s real nice, but the motoring sequence is inaccurate.


    IRL N2 should be constant when motoring (it could increase initially, but should stabilize very quickly. Even so, the N2 acceleration in sim during motoring is too high)

    currently it looks like a CFM56 start just with a MOTORING label slapped slapped onto it.

    An example of the sequence in real life could be:

    1. Ground start selected, bleed air starts to increase N2

    2. N2 increase (at the current rate in sim)

    3. EICAS display MOTORING while N2 starts to stabilize

    4. N2 stabilizes at around 21-23% as engine motors

    5. Motoring complete, N2 accelerate to 25%+



    It would also be cool if the motoring time can be randomized.


    Thanks

    Hello IPACS,

    Sometimes the automatic MCP speed selection is not the same as the FMC speed, which could be the reason that VANV SPD was always on despite AT maintaining a (seemingly) correct speed.


    I'm no expert in this but it seems like a bug :/


    Is it related to with the route planning & magenta line discrepancies you mentioned before?

    Hello fellow Aerofly-ers,


    Are there any ways to find the specific QNH values? I flew at higher elevations (DEN, EGE, etc) and it’s always a hassle trying to set the QNH by trying to match the runway waypoint altitudes with terrain on the VSD ;(.

    Hello IPACS, when I do ILS and RNAV approaches, the PAPI will show mostly 3 whites, suggesting I’m high on GS. This is especially confusing with RNAV approaches as it’s difficult to decide which one to follow.

    Please fix.

    Thank you very much!

    Hello,

    What is the specific logic of VNAV SPD and VNAV PTH? In what circumstances will one be chosen?


    Sometimes VNAV SPD gets me way higher on profile, can I manually choose one over the other?

    Also, sometimes the FMA gets into a seizure switching between the two special times a second, is it a bug or am I simply on the edge of the two?


    Thanks!^^

    Hello IPACS,

    This is a small issue that I found on the 777 & 787, nothing too significant or urgent but deserves some attention.


    The flaperons on the two aircraft’s are realistically simulated (drop down at takeoff, regain hydraulics at 100 ish kts). However, during this period the flaperons should not respond to input at all, as of now it can still be moved by the yoke.

    This is nothing urgent, just a suggestion.

    Thanks

    Hello IPACS team,


    On the a320 it take a long time and lots of usage to get the 3000 psi of hydraulics to 500 ish.


    On the Boeings the hydraulic pressure go from 3000-5000 to 0 in around 2 seconds without usage. The same happens when starting the pumps, the pressure go to 3-5k real fast.

    I seems to be off, but I’m not sure.:/

    Hello IPACS, the 777's apu is always on around 100 percent RPM.


    Is it a TMD file issue or something deeper? (sorry I'm no expert in this)


    Please fix, thanks.:)


    Upon further testing, the apu functionality seems to be fine (Generator took time to start after apu selected as START and ON.) Maybe just the display issue?:/

    I was trying to do the high alpha pass (30 degrees AOA, flaps up), and found that the hornet can do it at 80 kts??? In real life it’s usually 110 knots.

    The honey in game also can somehow accelerate in a vertical climb, which was almost never possible in the actual one.

    What exactly is the weight of the FA18 in game? Maybe it’s a bit light? :/

    In real life if a Jet no matter if its small as 737 or large as A380 if a jet falls in stall it will never apply full thrust.

    True, I apologize for the oversight, I think the protection initiates at near stall speed (the orange part of the speed tape). This can allow some nose authority and can reduce the likelihood of loss of control due to the pitching up.
