Hello,
Here is the link to download the new panel 0.37a, which correct all the bugs of the 0.37 version
Panel 0.37a for A320 FMS version - December 23th
The followings bugs have been corrected
Changes between 0.37 and 0.37a
=============================
- New organisation of the FMS xml files that are now segmented in flight phases. Be careful : new panel.cfg ; you must erase all the old "panel" folder to replace by this new version.
- When the aircraft reached its cruise altitude, aircraft toggle in mach mode, even if the aircraft was at low altitude, so that created overspeed : corrected
- some readings of the FMA was double in some cases : corrected
- No green ALT reading on the FMA while descent in V/S mode : corrected
- New default N1 calculation according the gross weight of the aircraft : Now, when the aircraft is light weight, there is no underpowered.
- some changes in my pitch/speed control autopilot for a better accuracy speed while climb
- All the FMA readings are corrected
- New default conjunction altitude (was 29000ft, now 30000ft) according the offcials charts. For the next update, I will give you a chart to calculate this conjunction altitude, according IAS and mach speed.
- you can leave the FMS activated until the end of the flight : To descent, you must pull the V/S knob to engage reversion mode, and re-push the HDG knob to re-engage the GPS nav mode.
NOTA : If you want delete my debug gauge (red lines informations in the 2D cockpit, edit Panel.CFG file and delete the line
- Gauge21=A320_FMS!Debug, 1,1,600,200
in the [WINDOW00] section
Very important
- LOC button is only to track a VOR (with CRS knob) or VOR runway guidance. Don't use in Nav or ILS mode !! (according the real Airbus)
- To follow a flight plan, just toggle the GPS/NAV in GPS position : That's engage the NAV mode in GPS mode.
- to ILS landing, press ILS button
then APPR button (don't press the LOC button) according the real aircraft.
Thank you for your feedbacks and excuse me for the 0.37 panel and its bugs.
