  1. Thanks for implementing this as per the changelog.

    Still, there are no rain effects because the windshield options keep reverting to medium. And medium setting obviously equals "none at all". I take it the ball is now back in Asobo´s competent hands...

     

    edit: i accidentally started this topic under the general section of the forum and i am unable to delete it, sorry for that...

  2. More like a comprehensive, developer made manual.

    The plane  simply (still?) lacks the simulation of certain features which already starts with the Auto flight system (e.g. FCOM Monarch Airlines) 1.03.13. regarding AFS overspeed protection in v/s modes.

    Simply not modelled. I'm not complaining about that, I never expected it to be that accurate but one reason the FCOM won't really help in learning the plane 

    Have a nice Sunday, all

  3. It´s good to know that we " will notice various changes in the product and that has come from some feedback from IRL A300-600R airliner pilots from different operators around the world." but shouldn´t you have consulted those guys in the first place? It´s V 1.1.0. and the changelog reads like an early access product...If i had a dollar for every "reported, thanks"...well, you do the math...

    I understand that people with real world XP on this type are not easily to come by... but how is this "the ultimate classic airliner expereience"?

    Regards

  4. The toga button on the glareshield is no (longer) the toga button since now it fullfills it's realworld counterparts function. There's a video by inibuilds where they discribe where to click now.

  5. Really?

    That's quite disappointing... I understand that this might be one of the often talked about limitations of the platform. Still, I rewatched inibuilds video prior to release where they explained the maintenance features.

    While they didn't explicitely state that not changing the tyres or brakes will eventually lead to these systems failing, by how it was phrased ("giving you a reason to do maintenance") I was still under the impression that you had to do maintenance in order to prevent that. Also, otherwise why would you have to enable these features in the first place if it's just visual effects?

    I still like the a300 a lot, but slowly the paints coming off in certain places...

    I do, every time I fly it.  It works great.  So do a number of folks.  If it is simulated it is in the FCOM.  I use FCOMs for all my study level aircraft.  Are there things that need to be fixed.  Yep, that is why continual development is such a great thing. If you want an A300-600 that works 100% with the FCOM, that will set you back a few million dollars

    Do I expect to get a full study level plane for 40 bucks?

    No, I actually do not. I even stated that in a recent post where I pointed out that what I had to say might be a little too nit picky, given the price tag of the plane.

    See attachment, if interested.

     

    But we should leave it there, because obviously we are going in circles.

    "Is there a manual?"

    "No, use the fcom!"

    "The plane doesn't do what it's suspected to do, according to the fcom"

    "Then go buy the real plane"

    I want to stress once more, that I am impressed with it, even more so with the continuous improvement and community work inibuild does.

    But I thought, they had some sort of input by real a300 pilots during the development phase who would have pointed out the shortcomings and incorrectly modelled systems in the first place.

  7. @Crabby do you get want I want to convey here? An fcom is only worth reading if the simulated plane can be actually operated by that manual. The a300 leaves a lot to be desired here, just try it.

    I recommend a search on Google for A300-600 FCOM or A310 FCOM (the A310 and A300-600 are system wise the same plane).  You will have weeks' worth of reading and learning at your fingertips.

  9. i have no bindings on the quadrant, besides those that come WITH the quadrant (hdg/spd/alt) dial. And i´m pretty sure it worked until one of the recent updates. 

    It also works with all my other addons, so i would think the problem is on inibuilds end. But i will of course take a look. 

     

     

  10. black square aircraft come with a 200 page manual

    justflight aircraft come with a 200 page manual

    leonardo´s md 80 comes...well, you do the math

     

    i´m so sorry, i really don´t want to be anal here. but if one wants to be their aircraft to be a study level one, then you better make sure it can be flown using the actual fcom.

    You are correct.  Players shouldn't.  Simmers who want to study a study level aircraft should.  Developers cannot give that manual with their product unless they have a specific license to do so.  That would be expensive and probably, as in the case of Boeing, a strict no go.  Your choice, but I prefer to be self-sufficient.  I know, it's weird today. 

    You are right too. But in this case I would expect the plane not to lack every other function and flight law described in said fcom. 

    Also I'm not talking about including the fcom but a short 100, 200 page manual to get you started.

    Back on topic, do you know how an rnav approach is actually flown (in profile mode) in the a300? Because hitting lvl chg for the plane to descend from the faf doesn't seem right to me.

    AP1 disconnects frequently, mostly during takeoff and landing. I can then engage AP2 which works as it should. Then I try to switch back to AP1.

    Sometimes AP1 works then for a short period ....sometimes it works then for a longer period .......and sometimes it is not possible to switch back from AP2 to AP1.

    Only AP2 works as it should and I use it the whole flight.

    It started after one of the first updates, I am not sure which one. I thought INI is aware of it since there is one similar topic like this one. Somehow I hoped for magical fix....!

    Even after v1.0.6 that issue is still there.

    I can say I am an experienced simmer (since 25 years), I have even an real world technical aircraft background...  but I do not know what is going on.

    Other aircraft like PMDG 737 or FlyByWire A32NX works without problems as speaking about the autopilot.

    Just wanted to know if its just me having this, a simple yes or no would be great.

    Thank you in advance.

    Cheers,

    Chris

    i can confirm this! I blamed this on my force feedback yoke until now...
