Flight model \ AP \ FMS

I have 1.2.3.0 update installed. . Run updater says i have lastest updates installed. But In forum i have seen that you released 1.2.3.1 experimental update. Where can i get it?

Fortunately, the first flight (EDDH-->EDDF) went without problems. The most striking are the changes in the colours of various numbers. With the exception of the well-known "flaws" I didn't notice any new errors. You can update to this version with a clear conscience. The "flaws" I noticed: The vPilot client (for VATSIM) is still not recognized if you load the Airbus directly from a saved "Turn Around State", or "Cold Dark State" in P3Dv4.4. But after reinstalling the Airbus, the "Taxi State" is active and vPilot is recognized there. Ok, if you know it, you do the known workarounds, but it's strange that after such a long time it still doesn…

If you accidentally activate the approach on the MCDU, can it be deactivated?

3 flights with A319 cfm 1 flight with A319 IAE Fortunately, the descent behaviour, at least of the A318/A319, has improved significantly. Three flights with the A319cfm and one with the A319IAE and TOD were perfectly calculated for all four approaches. Even the ASPA4W-STAR with the Altitude constraints (LOWW-->EDDF), which was difficult for the buses up to now, was flown off flawlessly and quite evenly. Now the Dev can treat themselves to a beer😎 The only flaw I see is the climb behaviour of the IAE version of the A319 in "Managed Mode". While with the same weights the cfm version masters the climb to e.g. FL340 without any problems, the…

I have not seen this issue on any flight before. 149.2 ZFW 23.6 fuel both weights in lbs KSEA to KPHX Ran into the managed speed issue that still happens but for me at least very rarely now. After switching the arrival rwy in the MCDU the problem went away as before, but now I am climbing at less than 500 ft/min in managed mode with a CI of 80. My epr is 1.517 and the CLB rating shows 1.519. I have flown this heavy in the past with no issues. If I go off A/T or push the levers to max nothing changes with regard to engine output. I show the modes as THR CLB CLB NAV. All MCP buttons are pushed to the plane. Is it just the…

Hello, i test today a flight beetween CYUL(Montréal) and KJFK (new-york) with A320 IAE. Takeoff, climb , cruise no problem. But on approach all was bad: The autopilot try to respect the altitudes constraints, but the speed are totally wrong as you can see on the pictures. It's very disappointing. When we can see an update about that big bug....? It seems that with Airbus CFM ther are fewer problems. Michel

I have been practicing approaches to Barcelona LEBL RW25R and observed that on an ILS approach to this runway two uncommanded rolls to starboard followed immediately with a recovery to level flight occurred whilst on the ILS approach with autopilot and APPR selected. Nil wind is being used under a clear sky. I am using the Simwings Barcelona airport scenery and Orbx EuropeLC and Orbx Barcelona city scenery. Any thoughts about this behaviour? I would have thought that if the approach from 8nm had come under the authority of the ILS, then in the absence of buffeting etc from weather inputs, no such behaviour should have been observed. It…

Hello all, I think adding the LEAP engines for the A320 professional would be a very realistic model update. Just a suggestion! Thanks, Roger Repasky

why does this drop from the sky ? new update 1.2.3.0 on P3Dv4.4...see below;

Am having nothing but a problem with this having thought I was doing something wrong I loaded up FSX on laptop done same flight loaded the same took off the same time FSX version. climbed to 6000 and held before continuing to 11000 P3Dv4 version just went to 30000 without stopping at 4000 fpm even though the AP is set to 23000 FSX version followed speed restrictions P3Dv4 version just went up to 300 before stalling over and over now am at 36000 and climbing with 23000 set on AP the whole thing feels different compared to the FSX VERSION p.s THIS IS SINCE T…

Hello, I noticed some differences between the A321 with IAE engines and CFM engines. E.g.: With the CFM is the approach speed 145 knots and the nose is 2 degrees up. On the A321 with IAE engines the nose is with the same approach speed, fuel, Pax and load 6 degrees up. Are there the same differences between these two engines types in real? On the YouTube videos form Lufthansa A321 they had also 2-3 degrees nose up, but not 6! Do i missed something or is the approach speed of the A321 IAE always 20ktn higher than the CFM to come down to 2 degrees nose up?

Good Day, Since updating to ver. 1.2.2.2 I have been facing an issue with the FMS with Top Of Descent calculations. As you can see from the screenshot TOD is around 30nm from runway! Am I doing something wrong when programming the FMS? Thanks for the help. Faisal

The flaps still show being down at cruise and the flap lever is all the way up. Also i have the indication on the ECAM.

Hi can someone please tell me why this sometimes happen? it’s not always, but rather on most of my flights. Thanks a lot! 64C03AC5-850B-42D2-AB3D-148699B0677C.MOV

EDIT: My version: Installed version: 1.2.2.1 In the below picture, the simulation clock is set to some other value then the real UTC Clock. Flight is A320 IAE, KIAD - MMMX. The MCDU, in flight plan shows times for waypoints in the correct simulation time, 01:20 for MMMX23L in this example, but below, it shows 1560 for DEST Question 1: Is 1560 a normal reading, shouldn't it be 16:00? Question 2: Why DEST shows real UTC, while sim UTC is different? 15:60 in this example, is roughly showing the real UTC clock. My best.

One observation I've made with the Pro (P3D4) version since its release is that the autopilot maneuvering of turns, at least in managed mode, seems to be a little off. I never noticed this in the previous (FSX) version. Generally, all appears good until the AP begins rolling out of the turn; it's as if it is aiming for a path that is parallel to the outbound path, but some distance before it. Hopefully I'm describing it well enough. Anyway, this has only been an observation, no big deal as the AP would eventually smoothly acquire the new path. For all I know, maybe that's how the actual aircraft operates. Since the most recent update, 1.2.1.0, however, th…

Hi Guys, I have noticed a new bug since installing the latest update, or it could just be me... I have searched and couldnt find anything on here so apologise if its obvs. When i reach the cruise, the display is indicating "DECELERATE" i have not even programmed in the arrival or anything yet.. Any help or advise would be great

Hello All, This has probably been talked about but I can't find anything on it. Everything shows in KGS. I would like it to shown in pounds. I've looked at FMS 3 and there's no menu to change from Kilos to pounds. Thanks, http://prntscr.com/mckcqd Brett

Hello, i would like to show you here one thing which raises question. I program a flight from LFPO to LFRB with the FMS and navdatapro (1901) with a sid and a star (ANLEV 6C). The altitudes and speeds approach are automtically defined. When i compare with the datas in the charts, there are some difference. On the FMS the altitudes are higher than those i see on the charts . The approach become more difficult and unrealistic. So i correct the datas on the FMS . You can see on the picture an altitude constraint at 6000 ft ( the red one) on the point SOPEX . I already modified on the FMS wich proposed a too higher altitude FL160. I registered 130... Why the …

Alrighty, so got an update for you with video. Here's the precursor information: A320 IAE DCA-MSP: HORTO3 BUFFR J518 DJB J34 VIO DCT KAMMA KKILR3 Right before the video starts: I'm right at TOD point. I'm coming from FL360, where the first restriction is 14,000 ft at CMAAC. Immediately, upon pushing the button to descend, the plane dives and chases the magenta all the way down. I wait to see if it's going to correct itself, but it doesn't, so I have to deploy speedbrakes. Once I do and get it back on profile, it handles beautifully. It's like it can't calculate the initial decent to meet the very first restriction to where, out of the…

Hello, i tested a flight some minutes ago with an Airbus 321 IAE . I thought that with the last official update 1.2.2.1 there were no problem with altitudes constraints, i was wrong ! The problem is always there.... See on the pictures. I dont understand....Is something to understand ? I have made a full reinstall after the bad update 1.2.2.2..and i use only 1.2.2.1. It seemed that with the airbus CFM i had no difficulties. Thanks for your replies Michel.

Hello , i update to 1.2.2.2 , and big problem in FMS : altitudes wrong , instability and so on.... you can see on the first picture the erratics altitudes given on the FMS. What happens ?

The busses, didn't land as expected. The whole procedure like " Remember pitch at 50FT and reduce pitch by 30FT with 2 degrees over 8 seconds" is completely not programmed. The bus has a landing behavior as a normal plane like 738. This should be corrected as soon as possible.

Hello, Perhaps i missed something but i am not able to set transition, on any airport. I can set STAR. Any idea to set properly a transition ? Blue sky

Lockheed Martin® Prepar3D® v4 2019-01-12 18-25-03.mp4 I have a problem with the new version of Airbus Prof. 1. Spd/mach button doesn't work, you can not switch between the 2 values 2. Managed speed wrong calculation. Please check the video! Thx! Lockheed Martin® Prepar3D® v4 2019-01-12 18-25-03.mp4
