How’s this… I will do the tutorial flight tomorrow night… I shall report back on my findings then! Thank YOU.
Awww. We haven’t had a good witch burning in a while!
Graham is 100% correct. The tutorial flight helped me out a lot, and I think I’ve got a decent amount of hours in the Islander. It’s just a bit different on the Trislander!
Lol that’s my kinda flying. I couldn’t get the MD-82 started because I wasn’t fully concentrating on it … restarted on the runway, jammed the throttles to the firewall. All sorts of warnings going off, but I got ‘er in the air!
The Trislander just has a few quirks - that isolator switch before you start the engines, and then keeping an eye on the carb heat! Thankfully those carb heaters are the real deal - watch the carb heat gauge and flip one on!
You don’t even really need to watch the heat much - just be aware if your engines start underperforming ( like say, manifold pressures start diverging, or you can hear revs drop on one engine ) that it could be carb icing. I’ve found that even with the heat out of the warning zone - usually if I’ve been keeping it reasonably close, because less carb heat is better for performance - sometimes they start icing a bit anyway & need a quick dash of a lot more heat. Otherwise this is a pretty vice-free and pleasant aircraft, I still occasionally forget to look at the clipboard
watched Jeremy’s video.
regarding this flashing light…is there a circuit breaker to deactivate it ?
It would annoy me
Just wanted to say that I downloaded this the other day, and it’s an absolute joy! Love the quirks like the isolator switch, and having to keep an eye on the carb heat. Though I wish BN had picked somewhere else to put the turn coordinator…
I might well be interrupting my round the world in the Just Flight Turbo Arrow for an ‘every county in England’ in the Trislander…
Is it safe to assume you are joking ?
nah.
There’s a blinking light also in the JF Arrow, I always pull the circuit breaker.
erm ok … I will bite
You could always use the “SWITCH” referred to in the Pre and Post Takeoff checklists ?
dictionary definition - a device for making and breaking the connection in an electric circuit.
allright, that would be good enough I guess. As long as it doesn’t blink all the time.
I’ll have to wait for marketplace…I have both PC and Xbox.
Did you also get a developer Xbox from MS like IFT did ?
To test addons before Marketplace release ?
I think you will find they bought one with their own hard cash
I bet they have a manual as well
According to the link that appears to be a retail Xbox Series S, not a developer unit.
What is Interesting is it sounds like MS are somehow allowing 3rd party devs the ability to install their add-on on the Xbox prior to the add-on being available on the Marketplace. This is an amazing bit of information. That means they can actually test their add-ons before they release, which was impossible before.
Thanks for sharing this.
@NightMercury358 i promise i am not picking at a scab here but i want to throw my hat into the ring for TDS750 vc support. running it in a separate window just isn’t the same. anyhow, just another customer data point for you to consider as you start to look at working on the islander again and other future projects
yes upoan reading again, you are right. It’s not about the hardware Xbox but the special access.
IFT are the only dev that has posted about this to my knowledge, so it surely is very interesting to know and a good thing for future addons on Xbox.
So I am wondering if Black Box have the same special access now to test their Xbox version of the Trislander before th marketplace release. But maybe they want to keep such business internals, well internal. (which is ok).
why not turn it off as the tutorial suggests!
I don’t even have the plane yet !
oh…! in that case…
