Autopilot problem

[JakesF14]

I did a few tests last night, and discover the following problems:

I am using the default 747 autopilot on the JBizz, and found that

• when the A/P is switched on, I can select the NAV Hold and the HDG Hold simultaneously, which is not correct.
• When I select altitude hold, it does not work, but the moment i switch it off, the nose pick up or drop, which tells me it does have an effect, but not working correctly
• When I switch on the HDG Hold or NAV Hold, the Flight director switch also switch to ON

If someone have an idea why, help would be much appreciated!

is your Jbizz up for download? if it is, then I might be able to throw an Autopilot in it and get it to work correctly ... with my FSPanel Studio.

I will quickly upload for you! Thank you!

Will PM you with the info! That will be GREAT!

is the BizzJet uploaded yet? or would you still like help with it?

Hi Captain, had a PC problem, and needed to fix it before I could retrieve my bacups. I will try to upload it today still. will send a PM when done. Sorry for keeping you waiting! Oh I must mention, it is in the VC. the 2d panel is not done yet!?

Just to make sure that I am actually working in the right sim, is the Jbizz FS9, or X ?? I think its FS9 being that everything is showing correctly except for some exterior Textures like the wings and wheels, which you mentioned you are still working on.






at any route, I thought that I would release a Teaser of the 2d panel to the public to get some feedback.    --- NOTE!!! there are still a few switches that I am working on down in the bottom left corner, so please over look the switches problems.  Other than that, I believe the rest of the panel is fairly explanatory and finished.   When released, I will be releasing the Key for the F16.gau to allow it to see AI craft, and you can click on it for AI details.






Please let me know what you think.

Hey Capt>

Did you design the panal above with FS Panal Studio?
I was thinking of getting this add on but was unsure if it was possible to create glass cockpit components.

Thanks

One does not "create" gauges with FS Panel Studio. It is a visual placement program for panel development.

There is a rudimentary "editor" that will allow one to make minor modifications and/or adjustments to XML scripts, but I've found Visual Studio to be far superior and easier to use.

There is also a sometimes useful ability in FS PS to "edit/replace" bitmaps used by compiled gauges (.gau files), but you can only replace like with like (i.e. if the original bitmap is 8bit, you can only replace with another 8bit of the same size.
