Re: Display landing rate?

It's coming back to me now. When this was working for me it was the app Landing Rate Monitor which was providing the text line on the main screen of P3d. The app captured the vertical speed VS at touchdown (maybe via FSUIPC?) I went to the LRM website and downloaded the latest version. It's working ...

Display landing rate?

I have P3D v 3.4 and 5.3. I have forgotten how to display landing rate in these versions. I thought it was part of the information line that comes up with Shift-Z but it doesn't seem to work for some reason. Also in version 3.4 sometimes it displays and sometimes it doesn't. I need to record it for ...

Re: Map and Flight Planner suggestions

You might be right... if that is so then if it was improved then more persons might use it. Or maybe most persons are already using the built in stuff. LM would probably know.

Map and Flight Planner suggestions

Every time I use the Map or Flight Planner I find myself wishing for a few things to be improved. To me some things are awkward so maybe these suggestions might help. 1. To move the map you have to click on the edges of the map. Strange way to do it IMO. We should be able to move the map by dragging...

Any fix yet for slow flight plan creation

Running 5.3 hotfix 1. I experience very slow creation and loading of flight plans in the P3D flight planner. Like 5 minutes for an IFR flight from EFJY to EFVA in Norway. This is on a high-end machine with Ryzen 7 3700X processor, 32G of memory and a 1 TB M2 drive. I have to go away and make a coffe...

Re: DXGI Device Hung Errors - me too!

I have been getting the errors for as long as I have been using the RTX3070 and p3D v5 together. Sometimes there has even been a system crash to a black screen and power cycle reset. The DXGI error seems to happen with various aircraft but the most recent was with the Carenado C90 King Air. The cras...

Secondary screens flash when user tips displayed

In P3D V5 (including 5.2 hotfix 1) my secondary screens flash once whenever a Flying Tip (called User Tips in Options -Information -Other Text Settings) is displayed or closes. I have the system set up such that my outside view window is on my main monitor (driven by Nvidia RTX 3070) and I have mult...

No, only the Saitek Pedestal Controls and Saitek USB Trim Wheel which operate properly except for having to move the levers and wheel a little bit to get them to activate. I have CH Products Yoke and Propedals as mentioned.

Reloading a flight plan from the air

In a case where not responding to an ATC request caused my flight plan to be cancelled, Is there a way to reactivate or create a new flight plan from the present position? If I choose to not return the aircraft to the starting point then the flight plan still goes from the starting point. The flight...

Re: CH Products USB yoke not loading w/ P3D V5.1

The problem persists after updating the bios and chipset drivers. The devices were also plugged the into the usb 3 ports on the motherboard so I plugged into the usb 2 ports but that hasn't solved the problem. I can see the devices in the Device Manager although they are not named. At this point I'm...
