Just Flight PA28R Arrow III released

[Bushpounder]

Looking nice! Yes, unless the plane was used in a flight school, the interiors are usually pretty nice. Soon?

I like the Arrow a lot - great to see her Sisters coming along .... Start working on a few Repaints (Reworks). Nothing special, only a few fictional european Rego's.

Greetings Dirk

They are nice, but you might want to change the flag of the OH-PHF.

 

[Fireball6]

Yes, you are right - i will do that

Kind regards

Dirk

Hey Martin - loaded up the latest but there's still this thing about not wanting to start so uninstalled and back to the previous SP. Still fine and dandy. Your forum site doesn't know anything about me - gave email for password reset and it said no such thing here.

Have you checked that you have fuel in your tanks. Yes I know it may sound stupid but it has happened to me. Also make sure you have selected both tanks. I have no problem starting the new SP.

 

[olderndirt]

Yeah, my fluids are good. Martyn and I danced an 'eightsome reel' over the release and after an exchange of files got it to run continuously. This latest SP is giving me the original fits so I just switched back to the one that works - and it does.

When you uninstall using the ControlPanel you need to check the Airplanes folder to make sure everything has been removed. Unfortunately I found there was a folder for the Arrow still there. That folder contained the Panel folder with a PanelSave folder inside that. I deleted the folder relating to the Arrow and did a reinstall and everything worked fine. For some that PanelSave folder was stopping the battery from turning on.

LOL! Pat - you'll never forget that tip! I don't remember the Arrow having a BOTH on the tanks. Pipers usually have one tank at a time, not both. That's Cessna. See picture of Turbo Arrow (picture too big to add in) Here is the url - look at bottom left of picture: http://www.wartungsbetrieb-krems.com/uploads/pics/P1050820.JPG

Had the same issue but I followed Aussieman's suggestion and she is now working fine

Thank Aussieman

 

[olderndirt]

Exactly the same thing - fixed. Martyn should make this a sticky on his forum - I see you made them aware. Thanks Pat.

 

[Rick_Piper]

That's a very refined model Martyn

Thanks Rick

Service pack 2.2 is now available: http://www.justflight.com/support/pa28-arrow-iii/30fa7cc

This is a small update which adds the option to use cleaner, less worn & torn virtual cockpit textures, as requested by several users. A 'Cockpit Texture Switcher' tool has been added to the Start Menu, allowing you to switch between 'Standard' (existing) and 'Clean' (less worn/torn) virtual cockpit textures.

Customers have been reporting a problem with torque. The main problem is that after take off the plane wants to turn to the right rather sharply and requires massive rudder and aileron input to correct this. My experimentation with the rudder trim has partly solved the problem for me.

Below the throttle quadrant is the rudder trim knob. I have dialled in about 14-16 degrees of right trim and after 3 or 4 flights so far that setting has worked for me. With that setting the aircraft tracks almost dead straight from the runway.

When I was able to fly in real life torque was hardly noticeable. There was no deviation from the original track nor was there any tendency for the plane to want to roll.

 

[olderndirt]

Pat - wouldn't torque/P factor make you go to the left? Maybe it's different in the southern hemisphere? Mine goes to the left and a whisker of rudder trim takes care of it. Slight problem, finding it again after takeoff so the trim can be removed.

Hi all,

Work is progressing well on the Turbo Arrow III/IV. Hopefully some of you will be pleased to see the less worn panels/interior, and the new colour schemes offer something a bit different to the existing Arrow III.

Martin,

If I buy the release you have now will there be an additional cost for the upgraded interior?

Thanks,

Tom

Thanks
Martyn

Martin,

If I purchase the model you already have released, will there be an additional cost for new interior?

Thanks,

Tom

 

[Martyn]

Hi Tom,

If you referring to the less worn interior I mentioned above then that is free for all Arrow III users. If you are referring to the Turbo Arrow (which is more than just a refreshed interior - see the in-development page for more information) then it will be sold as a standalone product like the Arrow III but we'll be offering it to existing Arrow III users for £10.

Thanks
Martyn

Should have put that it turns to the left. that's what happens after a long day and you are tired .

I have the Garmin GNS 530W installed but can't seem to be able to turn it on.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
