Yes, it is confusing. Filenames so similar. Wish there was ONE file with everything updated, etc....NC
 
Bluebear has also uploaded a very nice native FSX conversion of Yannick Lavigne's Robin DR400. Don't forget to check it out! Thank you for your hard work...

In re: Vers 1.2 FSX native Panel and Model update

Don't know how to find and install the Honeywell FMC and radios from the Bombardier_CRJ_700. Can anyone help me? I am a total Noob when it comes t panel mods. I installed the Model update, and it looks great, but I guess I have more to do to get the FMC and radios to show and work.

Grateful for any help I can get. The Falcon 50 is my all time favorite in flightsim aircraft.

Thanks in advance

Hi JPMouse ,

All you need is in the panel folder,there is
nothing additionel to install .

If you have installed the model and panel update,
the only thing to do, is.
activate the OHP model in your aircraft.cfg and
choose between model=OHP and panel=OHP, or
model=OHP and panel=FMC ,
as explained in the readme file.

Open the aircraft,cfg (right klick, open with notepad)
and add your choosen option.

Repaints

Hi Bluebear,

Know where I can find any additional repaints that I can add to the Falcon 50? Sure is a nice jet and enjoy the updates that were made to it. :encouragement:
 
Entering "Lavigne Falcon" into the library search engines at Avsim or Flightsim will yield a few pages of results.

I think I did that. Here are the aircraft .cfg entries that I made:

[fltsim.4]
title=falcon50 Marine
sim=falcon50
model=OHP
panel=OHP
sound=
texture=Marine
kb_checklists=Falcon50_Check
kb_reference=Falcon50_Ref
atc_id=808
atc_flight_number=
ui_manufacturer=Dassault
ui_type=Falcon 50
ui_variation=French Aéronavale
ui_typerole="Corporate Jet"
ui_createdby="Dassault-Aviation"
description=Dassault-Aviation/Falcon 50 Aéronavale "B.A.N. de Landivisiau Escadrille 57S" repaint by Vonstroheim for French Air Force


[fltsim.5]
title=falcon50 SOH
sim=falcon50
model=OHP
panel=FMC
sound=
texture=soh
kb_checklists=Falcon50_Check
kb_reference=Falcon50_Ref
atc_id=N-SOH1
atc_flight_number=
ui_manufacturer=Dassault
ui_type=Falcon 50
ui_variation=SOH
ui_typerole="Corporate Jet"
ui_createdby="Dassault-Aviation"
description=Dassault-Aviation Falcon 50 1976 example texture


And this is what I see in the aircraft.....No HoneywellFMC and
radios from the default Bombardier_CRJ_700

Thank you so much for your patience with me and your kind help! I'm good to go now. I am glad that I had installed it correctly. When things don't work I am always afraid that I did not follow instructions properly. 30 years of flight sim have taught me to read 3 times and verify each step of instructions. It has saved me many hours or troubleshooting I am sure. The few times that I screw up, I am always grateful for the helpful spirit with which folks like you come to my aid.

Thanks much for your great enhancement and help. Now to dig into the Honeywell manual and do some flying.
Have a wonderful day, my friend!

Ah, someone studied the included real world manual. All I get otherwise are questions why things don't work as expected from your standard flight simmer. :biggrin-new:
You're welcome. Still need to give the Falcon a try, but I fear I'll just end up tinkering with it and make it yet another item on my endless "stuff I'm working on that I'll never finish" list.

Enhanced DC3? I missed that one. I know about the latest C47 that was just released.
Click to expand...

No relation to the Dakota Project. Based on the default DC-3 plus the AWESUM4SUM models and replicating the systems of the real thing.
 
Somewhere I have lost the VC gauge entry(s) in my panel.cfg for the three red emergency fire shut down switch/levers that sit above the central bank of engine gauges. Anyone know which gauge entry that is? I have compared several old panel.cfg's but just can't spot it.
 
Hi expat,

There were no fire extinguishers gauge entry in the panel.cfg's.
the three red fire extinguishers were just for watching and had
no real funtions and weren't animated.
I must have delete it accidentally in gmax with the flap lever switch
I will have a look at that again in gmax.

Manual start

Hi,

I can't start the engines in manual mode, but autostart do the job. Reading the check list i am looking for "boost pumps" in the differents panels without success! Is it possible?

Thank's for the reply!

JMC
 
@ expat,

here is an updated version, of the F50 interior with updated gauge file
to overwrite.

This will bring back the fire extinguisher to the panels.

@ gastonj,

I have no problems to start the engines manuel.
The "boost pumps" are located on the overhead panel "XFR Pump"
The manuele start process runs as follows.

At every engine

1. open the fuel valve (1) if not open
2. start the XFR pump (2)
3. start the engine (3)

After each engine start, press the start button again,
See enclosed picture.

I hope I could help
