F53 issues

Featured Replies

Hi Dave,

 

I've just taken the F53 for a test flight or two.  I found that I can't hit a thing with the iron bombs!!! (more practice needed).  I did notice that I couldn't get the TACAN display to work properly, if I set it up as I do in the other versions it wouldn't point at the station.  Secondly I've noticed on all variants of the Lightning's the Aileron trim gauge is operating in the reverse sense (it shows trimming left wing down when you are trimming right wing down).  Finally please have a word with the night shift as the still haven't changed that undercarriage bulb!!!!!!!!

 

all the best

As an update.  The TACAN works fine if you select set all switches for start.  It only seems to play up if starting from cold and dark.  I am switching the unit on!

Hello. I have a small concern for my par with the loading of the Air Air missiles. When I load the missiles my plane seems to have a weight overload on the right

  Your right it does  !   but fear not I've traced the problem 

 in the aircraft cfg.

  station_load.7   =  ;  and  station_load.12   = , ; both read   0,0,  6.60, 0.0, 0.0,

  those first two digits should read  0.0,

  Simply open the .cfg in notepad change the offending "," for a "." and save .
