Some little things

[dkoch]

Hi,

Have been enjoying the T-33. As you mentioned that you are working on future updates, here are some little things that I have not seem mentioned elsewhere:

• If you turn the generator switch to off, the generator red light does not illuminate.

• Generator off plus battery off turns off the engine.

• The starter switch should spring back to center.

• The alternate pitch trim switch in down (emergency) does not cut the stick switch, but when up (normal) it does.

• The ILS yellow light is for the Marker Beacon, right? It should not be on all the time the ILS/VOR/TACAN is active.

• When the artificial horizon is caged, the flag OFF is not displayed. Not sure it should, but this would be bad feature in real life.

Happy with the plane and anxiously waiting for new updates.

Thanks.

Hi @dkoch

Thanks for your feedback. I'll share with the team.

Correct, in the real unit it should be for indicating the markers with varying levels of flash. This is already a known item internally, and unfortunately we couldn't get the sim to play nice in providing those indications so opted to make it a signal status light in the meanwhile.
 

Thanks!

Thanks. 

Regarding the artificial horizon cage. I found this video on Youtube. Turns out the OFF flag is not for the caging (as you correctly have),  however the PULL TO CAGE springs back to "not caged" once released. That makes sense. Also interesting is that the cockpits in the video is very similar to the one you did.
