• Thanks freddy.. I figured that I wasn't the only one. I'm not sure if those that have the Honeycomb Bravo are in the same boat, but $300 isn't in my budget to experiment.

  in My Apologies Comment by airernie April 23
• Thanks.. Would love the have the multiple throttle levers that Bravo has. My propeller and mixture axis are assigned to the fuel condition levers, which work perfectly. Having just one remaining throttle lever means what one does, both do. I don'…

• Thanks.. I'll take a look at what you posted. Somehow, someway I always manage to run into these oddities.

• If nothing else, I am an 'equal opportunity' learner.

• It looks like any variables are in the file that you pointed me to, so I'll give those a go and see if I have any luck.. Again, thanks for all of your assistance. I really do appreciate it. Ernie

• Yep, it's there and renamed. Thank you..

  in Missing varList.xls Comment by airernie April 13
• Thanks.. Unfortunately, the video only reflects what I had already tried. Ailerons, elevators, and the rudder are no issue. It's the quadrant that I wanted to try. I've found some messages on this forum showing variables, such a 'sensors.BrakeL0_A…

• Sorry for the late reply. It's a minor annoyance, but would be willing to post a video, etc. if it would be of use. Otherwise, I'm just filing it a one of life's little unknowns.

• Thanks Kroswynd.. I'm hoping to to get there someday. Reading the manuals on smart cockpit and a lot of Internet searches. I was never good at retaining information and it's not gotten easier a I age. Some of the best videos I have viewed are for…

• Thanks.. I looked at that doc before posting, but completely missed it. Your eyes are certainly better than mine. :-)

• Update: Active Sky works on the First Officer's comm panel, but not the Pilot's side. Confused as are the folks at Active Sky, but it does work.

• Thank you. That's very likely since I tend to be slow doing my checklist and probably exceeded the time between when I did my deice and leaving the ground. I now know that I need to recheck prior to my taxi out.

  in Deice Message Comment by airernie March 16
• Anything like this available, perhaps as a standalone for FSX users? I realized that there probably aren't many of us, but it seems that this information would be useful. Thanks..

• Thanks freddy.. Will give it a read. I think that I am now of the same mind as you. Gonna find out soon as I'm doing a route this morning.

• Some more digging and it appears that ACT APPROACH removes all of the waypoints between the current position and Final Approach Fix or Final Approach Intercept Fix. Maybe the 360s are the Q400's way of dealing with having lost waypoints. I'm still …

• Q400; FMC; DATA ; Deice Request. I'm not sure when it populated, but sometime after I released the GPU unit. Once the GPU is gone, I usually don't go back into that option, but just happened to. I tried to replicate it on the ground using Active…

  in Deice Message Comment by airernie March 4
• Thanks for the reply. I did the deice on the ground and the intakes were open, but I don't recall the state of the boots. If there was a message on the MFD they would have been on, but can't say for certain. I searched the Internet, but nowhere c…

• Sorry, to ask such an inane question, but do you have the 1.026a patch installed since it requires it?

  in efb Comment by airernie February 12
• Thanks Reinhard. I'm probably obsessing over something that isn't all that important, but that's me.

  in Propeller Ground Range Comment by airernie February 10
• I had a similar issue with trying to install 1.026 on 1.025b for FSX. Contacted support and they seem to think that the installer may not be correctly recognizing the patches. The CS person suggested that I delete, install 1.025, skip the patches a…

  in Patch 1.026a not installing Comment by airernie February 5
• Okay, so default ATC is coming through headphones, while other aircraft sounds though speaker even though main and headphones playback set to same mapper. Active Sky ATIS feature still not playing. Interesting.

  in UHF Volume Comment by airernie February 4
• Got it.. Confusing 'V' with 'U'.. Unfortunately, still no sound from ATIS, but I can adjust the volume.

  in UHF Volume Comment by airernie February 4
• Thanks, I appreciate the help. Looks like the air intakes might have been the issue. Making an effort to completely go though the manual which is a challenge with focus issues.

• Don't if you've solved this yet, but you should be able to swap out the file that's stored in the mj8q400\sound\music\default directory. I would keep it the same format. I haven't tried it yet, but it seems logical that's the way you would do it…

  in change music board Comment by airernie January 26
• Answered through customer support email. Possible that the installation doesn't check for other then v1.025 so not seeing 1.025b and maybe 1.025a as valid installations. Recommendation was wait for fix in installer or uninstall and reinstall just 1…
