I want the A320, but for me, the wxr thing ist just one of the many quirks and issues why the bus is currently grounded and parked in a hangar. I shall take her out again as soon as there will be a new update or service pack available. That mode should hence cover most weather scenarios well enough, apart from some special situations most of which I think we don't have modeled properly in the sim anyway, if at all. The problem that everybody is having is that the wx radar is not show anything at all in that scenario.Ĭommon sense would dictate that there is some sort of communication error between the A320X wx radar and ActiveSky.Īccording to the manufacturer's manual, Collins even considers the use of auto multiscan mode the default mode of operation for the WXR units installed in Airbus aircraft. But if you are at 7000 feet and you're 5-10 miles away from a squall line, the wx radar should be picking it up. Every other aircraft I have flown (both real and in the sim) doesn't seem to have issues displaying returns as long as it's turned on. Now, I understand that there are times where using manual mode would be more beneficial than keeping multiscan in auto. Secondly, what's the point in having an auto multiscan function if you HAVE to use manual all the time to see any returns? That makes no sense. I never had an issue with the wx radar until I updated the A320X. Additionally, we have modeled all of the trouble-shooting checklists associated with hard-to-nail-down failures in the airplane that may not be immediately obvious to the crew, but that may impact your ability to complete a long-haul flight.Maybe perhaps possibly it might just be time to actually start treating this as a bug instead of user error. The weather radar Addons or features (ASN or REX) will work just fine with. This confirms what I have mentioned in the forums. We have received reports that the PMDG 777 SP1 weather radar works just fine with ASN installed but not running and the OpusFSX Live Weather Engine providing the weather. The ASN radar layer should more or less match the aircraft display. PMDG 777 SP1 Weather Radar Working with OpusFSX. New with the 747-8 are interactive checklists that will prompt you forĭeferred items to be accomplished later in a flight if necessary when The first step in checking whether the aircrafts weather radar is working is to pause the sim and pull up the ASN apps map window. Follow those steps and you will have the airplane reconfigured to complete the mission in no time at all. Provide you with detailed step-by-step guidance through how to handleĪny message that appears as a result of mechanical failure, from a failed fuel pump to a complete catastrophic engine failure, the ECL is your friend. The ECL will walk you very easily through all phases of flight and will The advanced Electronic Check List (ECL) system is included and fullyįunctional for all normal and abnormal modes. In reality, the ECL is controlled by the cursor control wheel at the top corner of the throttles. By default, the ECL allows you to click on the items as if the screen were a touch screen. For those familiar with our 777 aircraft, you will be right at home with the ECL on the 747-8 although there are minor differences in the interface.
