Markoz 7 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I bought this one yesterday and it is awesome. I've done 4 flights in it so far (2 were based on the tutorial). Absolutely love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshua Che. 1601 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 My 2 Cents. Good + Excellent FPS. Second to none out there, except maybe the twin otter extended. But that's in a different class of complexity. + High detailed Systems. (the biggest plus out there) + Custom FDE, overcoming standard FSX limitations. (Although a bit more tweaking needed, but its good at its current state) + Fluid Displays, simply beautiful. Neutral + Rather good modeling and texturing (although a bit cartoonish). + Custom FDE leads to minor problem - after pausing and unpausing, you get a weird slow acceleration. But that is something I can live with. Bad + Exterior sounds are poor at best. (not sure if its my config settings or?...) + Manuals are simply confusing at best, disorganized at worst. + GSX reports engine not shut down, even though they are shut, so cant use GSX. (I think it can be fixed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan_au 15 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I was in a training night last night with the Dash 8 and there is so much you can learn about it and the way it flys. I get about 60fps in at PWN and they say It handles as bad as the real thing. VASF5 can't shut down the engines and it will not reg a flight as it can't pick up the engines starting even from cold and dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted April 21, 2013 Author Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 21, 2013 Agree with Joshua especially regarding the manuals: - no best practice,no golden thread - how to setup FSX - how to load the aircraft ( from freeflight or default flight first) - how to calculate fuel - what kind of panel state is loaded Don't know if it is normal, that the aircraft bumps a little arounf when loading. I also get some announcements like "bank angle!". So is this normal or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emi 5161 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I'm experiencing the same Otto, but that's no showstopper in my point of view. I guess it's related to the fully custom FDEs which are calculated outside of FSX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badfinger 62 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 One of the beta testers who is a RW Dash 8 pilot will be releasing a comprehensive tutorial in a few days. He personally posted this info @Avsim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snave 466 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I think this was always the intention - get it `out there` then start adding the tutorials. There is a perfectly adequate Sample Flight Guide and System Tutorial to get you off the ground, but they are a long way from describing the full complexity of even the Pilot version.

Susl-Blume 55 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 GSX and AES Engine shut down issue can be handle if u go to you FSX Key settings and give a command to shut Engine down. After you turn off the Engine at Gate press your command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted April 21, 2013 Author Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 21, 2013 Snave, that's why he mentioned Majestics email adress. But IMHO it would be much easier to have access to their froum, but as long as the servers are down, people try to get "support" elsewhere.

No idea with the CTD Joystick throttel: Open the Q400 Configurator, go to Engine controls, change the value at DISC for both levers to "0" and REVERSE to a minus value. Click Apply and reload the aircraft. Now you can move your joysticks throttle back to zero while in the aircraft it moves only to DISC. To get reverse thrust use your default FSX keyboard commands. Taxiing: Do you mean how to stear? IF so, this has to be done by the tiller, which is hard to control with the mouse. In my case, I found that when using the aileron axis on my joystick, it commnds the tiller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted April 21, 2013 Author Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 21, 2013 1. Throttle: This correct, when the DISC value ist set to zero the cockpit throttle is at DISC, while your joystick is set to 0. If it would be set to idle, your aircraft would start moving. I've read this in their forum, before the server went down. 2. Maybe you have assigned your axis different. When using the rudder, this allows to turn the nosewheel up to 8°, with the tiller up to 70°. I move the tiller with the aileron axis. To quote the manual: Depending on the settings, the steering tiller can be controlled either by the mouse, or by ailerons axis, or by spoiler axis (which is the recommended setting). The steering is effective under 40kts. You can also use rudder axis to turn the nose wheel withing 8 deg. angle. Tiller steering alows to turn the nose wheel up to 70 deg. in each direction. If auto differential thrust is enabled in settings, the PL will move separately to use differential thrust and simplify turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
