No Glideslope Needle in King Air/200

Postby Simviation2003 » Sun Jul 13, 2003 11:55 pm

Hello fellow aviators,

I've recenlty downloaded a Beechcraft King Air 200 into my FS 2002 Std edition which I really enjoy flying.

The problem I am having is that I cannot see any identyfying needles/markers to display the ILS Glideslope on the computed Artificial Horizon gauge.
The VOR only shows the vertical needle indicating the flightpath, which is the the standard non-computered guage.
The reason I mention the Artificial Horizon gauge is that when you intercept the ILS heading the A/horizon shows a broard arrow pointing up. Is this the glideslope needle, and if so, how should it react????
It tends to just slope to one side , no matter how I climb or desend.

Any advice on this would be mostly apreciated.

One last thing, If it is a glitch with the aircaft, can I relapce the gauges, or do I need to replace the whole panel.

Thanking you in advance

This sounds like a gauge problem to me. The easiest way to fix this is to find a suitable gauge that you like, and then go into the panel.cfg file, and replace the offending gauge and test it.
You need to know the correct name for the gauge, but they are all sensibly labelled.
That should do the trick, but don't forget when modifying that you should make a note of the change you made..... just in case ;D

Thanks Ozzy,

I shall look at that, I assume you mean replace the VOR/ILS gauge, anyway, I will back up before I proceed.

Thanks again
