Re: Screen designer - BMP.MIF images background

Hey all. Paging @dutchroll actually but anyone else who has ideas.... Custom background images for gauges etc... Should they be created individually, or is it a better idea to make one BMP the size of the screen and carefully place the graphics on there? Also, using the beta 1.3.0.9 (I think) simula...

Fuel flow variation

Starting to get some dicky fuel flow indications..... Presume this is most likely a loose connection/grounding issue - has worked perfectly for years.. Initially saw zero fuel flow and then a slow increase after some time, but the other day, the fuel flow didn't decrease with throttle reduction - ie...

Re: SP9 Crash on TakeOff???

These kinds of issues are typically caused by a sloppy mount of the AHRS. It is allowed to move relative to the airframe. This typically affects the device on take-off (acceleration and bumps from runway) or during turbulence. These kinds of movements can dramatically exceed the measurement range o...

FLCH mode / IAS mode Autopilot

Any possibility of implementing such an autopilot mode in the MGL autopilot? i.e climb at a specified airspeed which would adjust pitch to maintain the speed?

Re: UI Zoom in Simulator vs actual panel

Apologies if this is an insulting answer..... but are you sure you’re selecting the project size that matches your unit? I.e Challenger, Oddysey etc?

G3 Terrain

Hello Please could I clarify which terrain files I need to have in my Terrain folder? I want the highest terrain resolution available to be overlaid onto my vector map. Do I need the .DEM files from the Enigma page or only the .DAT files form the G3 to be copied into my TERRAIN folder on the iEFiS? ...

AP disconnect button

Hi Prior to upgrading my iEFIS from G2 to G3 (and losing basically my entire setup - my fault), One of the buttons on my stick used to disconnect the autopilot. Currently I have four buttons on the stick - 2 for up and down trim and two which do nothing. I've looked through the digital IO stuff but ...
