Any recommendation for better checklists to use with this mod?
yes â The real world one (or a copy)
many examples ⊠ie https://wayman.edu/files/C152-Checklist.pdf
Good to know it applies! â Any small differences?
No smell of Gas on your hands, after taking a fuel sample during the âscroll aroundâ.
I created this checklist based off the POH.
No, I would say that most C150/152s does NOT come with Auto Pilots, but some could have DME, but mostly no to that as well. TheyÂŽre reasonably cheap aircraft to purchase, and many are used for Private Pilot Licence (PPL) training, which is all done in Visual Flight Conditions, with just a few flight hours spend on simulated Instrument Flight Conditions (IMC), and you wouldnÂŽt need a DME or Auto Pilot to train for that. So, basic instrumentation (read standard instrument T) as you see it in the simulator, often without any navigation aids at all (at least not functioning). Some will have night lightning, some will have pitot heat, some will have strobes, but again, a lot of them comes with the bare minimum for training. Any two seater aircraft (light aircraft) have limited utilization (canÂŽt really take the family etc.) and are not really that great outside school flying. On the C172s on the other hand - you likely find better navigation aids and from time to time APs. Hope that helps answering you question. Merry Xmas.
Great luck in your endeavors!!! I still remember when you first took this project on from the original author who started the project. It was good then, and you made it more amazing. And itâs pretty amazing how long youâve stuck with the project. Thanks so much for all your, and all those who worked with you, work!
INSANE update. Thank you @WeptBurrito2749 !
V2 is out: WBSim/JPLogistics Cessna 152 » Microsoft Flight Simulator
Fantastic work, eternal thanks to @WeptBurrito2749 !
Just a heads up to those that use this fantastic add on⊠I discovered that with V2 there is a conflict with Heavy Division 787 mod that stops the EFB working in the C152.
Unbelievable effort, magnificent result. Many thanks to this dedicated team. Only issue Iâve spotted thus far is inconsistent C&D engine starts. Followed proper startup procedures and only managed to get the engine to catch once in 5 attempts, reloading the aircraft after each try. Any secret sauce here?
What does the ârealâ option do exactly within the tablet?
I also note some JPL compatible third party liveries no longer show the reg number properly and I suspect the livery creators must update their files for this spectacular v2.
Looks like Iâm gonna need a QRef flip checklist for the C152 now!
Incidentally, what year of aircraft is this simulating?
Version 2 is a truly astonishing mod, well done guys and thank you!
Two very minor points:
I use the PMS GTN750 option (on the excellent EFB) and I noticed that the icons on the main screen are blank for some reason, however the click spots work perfectly.
The tooltip for the heading adjust knob gives a readout in degrees, but it sometimes sticks and I have to click elsewhere on the panel and then come back to it before it reads correctly.
Tablet and avionics are dead for me, dont have any 787 mod.
Edit: working now after restart.
My tablet also does not work. I can not do any settings on it. I have no other C152 mods in my community folderâŠ! But it could be an other mod, that blocks the iPad. Any ideas?
I created another folder beside Community on the same disk like unloaded-addons or whatever. I cut/paste addons out of Community and into that folder when I need to do testing or when a new patch comes out. You could do that and try with just the JPL v2.0 and see what happens.
Nicely done! Havenât given it more than a quick takeoff and landing in the night skies over KDVT - Phoenix Deer Valley - and it handles very well. Plan on testing more of the avionics in the next few days.
Thank you all for your work on this mod!
Your sim life would be much easier if you used Addons Linker. No cut/paste needed.
I am having the exact same issue. I have only gotten her to start once in about 30 tries. I canât imagine what the problem is. I am doing a short video and will post it on their discord and hope someone can help. Itâs really frustrating to see everyone else having fun with her while I canât even start her. Sometimes even âReady For Flightâ doesnât work.
EDIT: Turns out I just wasnât holding the starter on âstartâ long enough. I knew it was something simple.
Problems here also. EFB tablet donât work and the oil presssure stays too low. Revs are going up and down 600-1400.
I dinât have other 152 mods or a mod for 787 (why should I have ).
Canât get airborne ar all
