Hi JH,
ad 1) You mean latest aircraft.cfg and .air file, don't you?
ad 3) Where do we get the correct CG from?
Regards, René

If you don't use Topcat or some other similar app, you could import ZFW/CG in 1R of INIT 2nd Page by pressing 3R button on same page of MCDU.

1) yes
3) in the MCDU INITB Page, when you use the uplink feature

Thank both of you!
I use Topcat but I notice a slight difference between MAC calculated by Topcat and the one by the uplink feature of MCDU INIT B page - of course with the same fuel weight. Which one is more reliable?

Hi

There are many factors here that can contribute, among them:
1) Check you use the latest aircraft model
2) check you have more than 30fps in P3D
3) check your GW and CG

Thanks JL for the reply.

1, using the latest aircraft ok.
2, Running 90+FPS on the server.
3, Run a number of different loads and CG/GW configurations using Topcat.



A couple of pictures to see if you can spot anything not quite right.


I always have had the feeling that it maybe CG.

Hello,


Do you use the "default A320" aircraft in Topcat ?


ToTom made a txt file to use in Topcat, especially for JeeHell FMGS.
The link below, from another topic in this forum :

Unzip, tutorial inside...
MANY THANKS to ToTom for his work !!

You can use this flight model called "A320-214 JeeHell PRO FMGS" in Topcat, then "Export to Flight Sim", then using "UPLINK" feature in MCDU INIT B page as JeeHell told...
... and look whether the issue still occurs.


Hope this will help,
Michel

Merci, Michel.
I'll try Tom's txt file for my next flights and we'll see. In fact I've got it for Topcat but without the DOW adjustment in Edit.

Important too : Don't make any change to the values called "Adjust FWD" and "Adjust AFT" in FSX / P3D. They must be the default values for JeeHell's aircraft.

I can confirm that my Topcat is running the Totom conversion.

It appears that the Trim seems to become erratic for some reason and not stable as it used to be.


Will do more testing today and note here any findings.

I made a test flight today with B50.0, but without Topcat :
No issue in managed mode, AP is completely stable at FL130, FL180, FL220.
Tomorrow I'll try a test with Topcat (and of course with ToTom's file).

Where are these values?
