As a Minor suggestion ( while the FMS needs updating on the missing "EXEC" button).... Prior to starting your input information, Click in the FMS screen ( brings up remote window ) and NOW you can see the "EXEC" button. Continue your input and execute as normal. Once done with your FMS , click again in the FMS screen and it'll be hidden again---OR leave it up & move the remote screen to your liking. :) Good video for those new to the AW139. Thanks for creating it.
Current version actually uses the PROG button as Execute. I didn t know that at that time but have since updated .my textures although X-Rotors has considered the need for a clear exec function and has FMC changes planned for a future update.
Lovely looking aircraft model. There is an error in the AFCS implementation though. The AW139 AFCS can't maintain altitude with pitch. When a vertical upper mode like ALT is selected it will only use collective to maintain the vertical reference. Pitch can only be used by the AFCS to control airspeed.
I believe you can do ILS approaches, I think you can do the others as well but I'm not 100% certain on that. I haven't experimented much with that module in a bit.
Your video has been very helpful. I managed to take off and play around with the Autopilot. BUT, I am struggling with the cockpit views , like from PFD / MFD back to center console. I saw you you move the mouse back and forth so fast to get to each panel ( AP/ guidance controller). What is the the a command to set to use the mouse to move around the cockpit panels? Thank you
You can set quick views in X-Plane. I believe my key binds are setup at CTRL + X with X representing a number pad key say CTRL + 1 or CTRL + 3 to quickly allow you to move around the cockpit in 2D mode.
@@CajunJosh Hello Josh, MY CCD has an issue. I tried using Ctrl + X, but the CCD still not working. In fact before that , when I use the mpouse click , it is not even respondoing.
Thanks! Now my helicopter can follow the NAV route. Just one thing.. when following the route my helicopter leans to the right in straight flight? Does anyone else experience this?
Completely normal Nick. As you are speeding up the rotor disk starts to produce asymmetric lift. The rotors on the side of the disk that are advancing into the oncoming air start to produce more lift than the retreating blades going with the flow of wind. The faster the helicopter goes the faster the more pronounced the lean will become.
@@CajunJosh Ah yes. Thank you. I didn’t think about that. Makes sense. Using the direct to function on the FMS has also helped me with the S92 helicopter.
at 7:37 how do you get that screen/ipad ubove the aw139 plack, i dont have it, plus the quality of the text on the fmc and pfd is very bad and pretty much unredable, any help?
It's the Avitab plugin. It's been so long I'm not sure how you get it to pop up there. As far as the text goes that's a resolution issue with the display textures within the module. The user can't easily manipulate those.
I'm not exactly sure what the HTLM CAS message means, but the developer might be able to help you out if you can't find it referenced in the manual. You can join his discord here: discord.gg/77wYZK37
I guess it's a subjective opinion, possibly related to my OBS recording software. I don't have a dog in the fight as far as selling the module goes but IMO it's one of the best rotor animations out of any of the available XP11 helicopters. I know many have found the new rotor animations to be a highlight so it's possible the OBS recording settings aren't conveying accurately what I'm seeing in the sim.
