    Newbie: New purchase of NDP Charts Question (One Day Access)

    in NavDataPro Charts

    Posted

    I never used a Navigraph Subscription nor a Nav Data Pro subscription since I do not fly online and don´t need up to date data.

     

    I did purchase some Airports from Aerosoft to use with MSFS and got the NDP Charts App where those airports are listed. I can see those charts in offline mode.

     

    So here a Q from a newbie: If I buy the ONE Day Access to the NDP Charts, can I download all the Airport charts and use them Offline afterwards or do I need a subscription to see them?

     

    Thank you!

    E-Jets 175 0.9.2-rev1 but 0.9.4 released?

    @mopperle it is not showing anything on my end.

    You might have another installation since mine does not show the BETA signs either.

     

    UPDATE: I removed the AddOn and in the library the option experimental version (Experimenteller Zweig) came up. This wasn't there on the initial installation. Now version 0.9.5-rev2 got installed.

     

    Maybe you guys could add an option to change the installation of any addons to Release / Beta / Exp as it was possible with the former App.

    So everything went smooth installing and updating the 175 up to version 0.9.2-rev1.

     

    I think 2 or 3 days ago (more or less), I saw Version 0.9.4 offered by A1 and I installed it as all previous updates also....BUT,,,I noticed that A1 still lists 0.9.2 as installed. In the cockpit of the E175 the old version is also shown...so appearently something went wrong!

    @CRJay would you please skip the emotions and closely READ all the topic?

     What the heck are you arguing about anyway? You start with a non-sensical accusation that if he is at MTOW he must be over MZFW,

    This was not an accusation but rather a guess based on the fact that he stated the DOT to be outside the chart.

    Then Himbi shows you his load on the tablet, all within limits and clearly below MZFW and you still keep arguing. 

    Jesus man....he loaded the plane EXACTLY with the values I provided him JUST before hes answer with the screenshot ;) -> PLEASE READ the entire topic.

    On a side note, just because I'm curious... Why take off with PACKS switched OFF? Or continuous ignition on while it is CAVOK, no icing conditions etc? And the FLEX takeoff was also nicely shown to be non-functional in your video.

    As I said in the post with the video: PLEASE do not judge OTHER stuff than the TO.

     

    Thank you!

    @jryko your latest screenshot gives me the impression that your looking down (RW fills like 2/3 of the windscreen), all other pictures (including those from @amahran) look pretty normal to me (this is a subjective impression since the RW fills like only 1/2 of the windscreen).

     

    @jryko did you try a "vanilla" setup (clean Community folder and standard payload of the CRJ)? I'm just wild guessing here of what could lead the CRJ to pitch FWD (a pushback addon, a non balanced payload, a.... you name it).

    Also if this happens only when your online I would rather see it as a SIM "issue" than a CRJ issue (maybe some bad vector data of the ground, google maps instead of bing, etc.)?!

    @jryko I do fly the CRJs in VR also (and other ACFT) and did not realy feal that something is off. I use a Quest 2 with Cable Link and somethimes wit Air Link.

    @amahran I never had the feeling that I have to look UP while taxiing

     

    What VR equipment do you guys have? Could it be something in your settings (lens correcion, zoom factor, etc) ?

    Can you guys take screenshots (exact the same orientation) ? E.g. User 1 take a picture on LOWI RW08, user 2 tries to match the cockpit view and take same picture.

    @Himbi realy man? You compare an outside footage of an CRJ with my videocapture and say it's not correct? Do you have any ideas how heavy the plane was and to which speeds it rotated?

     

    Just for your information: your video shows NSW off ground exactly at 0:55 and MAW off ground at exactly 0:57 -> which for those who know a bit of math are exactly 2 sec.

    In my Video you see the nose rising at 01:29 and looks like at 01:32 MAW leaves the ground -> which are again 3 sec.

     

    To conclude: the CRJ in your video realy pops up in the sky like 1 sec earlyer then the SIMULATED CRJ.

     

    Just add the effect of the SIM and it's wind behaviour and the sensitivities of the controls and you will have it sky rocketing.

     

     

    I have nothing else to add here regarding the TO behaviour.

    Just tried again a "very heavy" 1000, at Vr full yoke back nothing happens. At V2+10 the nose slowly starts rising and then pops into the air. That's not as it is supposed to be.

    Btw I loaded the plane via the EFB to ~41300kg TOW and the green dot which shows the CG(?) moved outside the chart! I thing this isn't correct either...

     

    Dear @Himbi,

     

    with a TOW of 41300 kg you would have been exceeding the MZFW of 35154Kg...of course you will be outside the envelope and have a ton of issues flying the aircraft.

     

    Loading the C1000 with 84 PASS, Max FWD and AFT Cargo and 4500Kg of Fuel is the Max  load that you can put in the CRJ.

    Taking Max PASS (104) would mean that you have to reduce payload of both cargo bays in such a manner that the DOT stays within the flight envelope (GREEN).

     

    I wouild recomend to study / understand this aircraft if you want to fly it!

    i'm sorry but the manual clearly state to put the empty CG at 35

    Unfortunately the manual is older and refers to an older version of MSFS! Do not touch it!

     

    Addition 1:

    The picture in the manual shows the slider for the CRJ700 fully to the right coresponding to a empty CG of 35 -> this is OLD. Load the CRJ700 and if you move the slider completely to the right you will get other numbers for the empty CG

     

    Addition 2 (THIS IS IMPORTANT TO BE UNDERSTOOD): The empty CG is not a value that changes with your weight and balance (it is the EMPTY CG). This value comes programmed in the airframe data. Changing it will result in ....yeah...

     

    Addition 3: If you somehow changed the empty CG please revert the values to default (I'm not sure if the chages are saved).

    Standards are:

    CRJ550 -> 36,5

    CRJ700 -> 37,0

    CRJ900 -> 36,0

    CRJ1000-> 31,2

    @Himbi there are tons of topics regarding how to properly set up W/B with the CRJ (I will repeat the key points for you).

    1. Never, and I mean never, set W/B of the CRJ through the W/B window from MSFS! --> W/B are only set through the EFB!

    2. Never touch the Empty CG from the W/B window of MSFS

    3. Don't even look to the W/B screen in MSFS --> only use the EFB

    4. After setting up W/B in the EFB press twice to send the data to the SIM (this has also been explaind mamy times before why it is requiered).

    @Richard Dastardly I don't realy understand what you are trying to tell me...

    I argued with the OP because he put other DEV in comparison forgetting to sum up their price tags.

    As you said here: 

    vor 9 Stunden schrieb Richard Dastardly:

    PMDG offer you a plane, and then they're going to offer you a slightly different length plane for the same price again, and so on.

    was exactly what I tried to explain in my post because the OP compared 4 CRJ variants to ONE PMDG variant so I added 65 (for the 700) + the price for the 800 + the price for the 900 + ... (because we don't exactly know the price tags on those). So you will definately end up paying more then 70€ for 4 variants.

    Also the 146 comes in 3 (not 4 variants) and has the same price tag as the CRJ.

    ...

    So I think you missunderstood the point I was trying to make.

    Let's review the current 3rd party airliner market for MSFS; PMDG has their DC-6 for 55€ and their 737NG for 65€, Just Flight has their 146 for 60€, Leonardo has their MD-80 for 90€ and Fenix has their A320 for 59€. All of them offer a service and product that is light years above what Aerosoft offers for their CRJ, forcing you to buy the 550/700 for 50€ in order to have access to buy the more popular 900/1000 for another 20€. An armed robbery if you ask me.

    Well not quite...so let me share my 2ct:

    PMDG 737-700 has a promo launch price of 65€ (+800 variant +900 variant + ... variant),

    all others offer you 1 ACFT roughly at 70€.

     

    With the CRJ you get 4 variants for 70€....so let's be fair in comparison.

    Honestly lol.

    Honestly....you should try to read the entire reply before you LOL.

     

    Understand that all those over 100 community users provide bits and pieces and upload those every step of the way (in the DEV or EXP versions ONLY). Can you tell how many BUGS have been uploaded then unloaded then uploaded again etc? Did you notice that some of the uploaded versions didn't even work at all due to instant CTD? Have you tried a DIR TO in that NX, did you notice both MCDUS providing same informations? etc.

     

    Now don't get me wrong...those guys are doing a tremendous job for free (did you help them with a small donation already?) but comparing it (at this stage) with the CRJ...this makes me LOL.

     

    Now please get back on topic or this will be closed

    Free projects (A32NX) gets more update than paid one... Always wondered why.

    And also because they are working on adding and fixing issues as they go. So instead of saying...here you go with the full set of features, they add features bit by bit ;) . (They only currently added VNAV as an example of that....).

    And it is also because (as the loading text says) over hunderd of community members actually provide code for it.
