I have no additional mods like lighting or something the like installed.

Ok. The state saving line is in the cockpit.xml.

I couldn’t find the folder you were referring to in your second post though. Can you point me to an exact location? This is a steam install if it helps.

Also I am using the MSFS Addons linker tool from flightsim.to. So the mod is installed on a different hard drive then the sim and then just linked into the community folder. Might that be the culprit?

Thanks again!

986

Nevermind. Found the folder. Al those entries are there.

987

State saving/loading doesn’t work for me either.

988

My apologies if I’m missing something obvious, but I can’t find the rudder trim? Is it in the cockpit, or a config value somewhere? I did just think about using the keyboard bindings; seems like that is working? Is that the way to use it? Thank you!

989

Correct, you must use keyboard bindings. You can see the trim in the G1000 EIS

@MrTommymxr I believe there is an error in your statesaving code. The COM freq are setting the nav freq

				(L:STATE_COM1A) (>K:COM_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz)
				(L:STATE_COM1S) (>K:COM_STBY_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz)
				(L:STATE_COM2A) (>K:COM2_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz)
				(L:STATE_COM2S)	(>K:COM2_STBY_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz)
				(L:STATE_NAV1A) (>K:NAV1_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz)
				(L:STATE_NAV1S) (>K:NAV1_STBY_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz)
				(L:STATE_COM2A) (&gt;K:NAV2_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz)    <-----------------------
				(L:STATE_COM2S) (&gt;K:NAV2_STBY_RADIO_SET, BCD Hz) <-----------------
				(L:STATE_ADF1A) (&gt;K:ADF_SET, BCD Hz)
				(L:STATE_ADF1S) (&gt;K:ADF_COMPLETE_SET, BCD Hz)

I have another question. Is it really psi that you want in the following? part of the Engine Behavior section.
(L:START_CRANK:1) 2 <=
if{
25 (>A:RECIP ENG MANIFOLD PRESSURE:1, Psi)
}
els{
2 (>A:RECIP ENG MANIFOLD PRESSURE:1, Psi)
}

14 psi is regular atmospheric pressure - so 25?, maybe in Hg as the units?

Thank you!!! I’m a 2-yr ‘veteran’ of X-Plane who switched to MSFS recently. I fell in love with the DA40-NGX but was very frustrated by its faulty FADEC and the issues it created. Your mod saved me. My donation for your work is on its way.

btw, if you are wondering why crosswind landings and takeoffs are impossible. this is why

Looks like you’d run out of rudder authority real quick.

What’s the cross wind component?

998

Is it with beta or something has happened to the stable version too?

999

25 knots, but 5 is enough

ever since CFD came out

It’s strange I have not felt it so bad earlier, just with the beta. But anyway worth reporting, I’ll vote for it as soon as it’s reported. Thanks!
