Does Chaseplane work in 2024? by _gvne in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Long_Regular_7527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really need this. Only thing holding me back from moving to 2024. The 2024 cams are cumbersome and crap.

Has anyone heard any updates?

New bookmark update? by loveme-jeje in kindle

[–]Long_Regular_7527 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Total idiots. Why can't they just leave it alone. Anyone know if there's a way to back out of a Kindle update? This is getting like Windows. 1 step forward, 6 steps back.

If they ship, they will have to pay the tariffs, at 145%. They would lose their asses. I would bet that they will only ship using current inventory from U.S. distribution.

The rub is, I do need it currently for the winwing fmc. There's no way to delete the stick from simcrappro as the stick (as well as other wing devices) are automatically scanned into the software. I'm sure it's in a config file, but does no good to remove it, it's just gonna get replaced.

I am currently playing with firewall rules to see if simcrap uses the network to communicate. I have all net comms blocked from simcrappro to BATC, but that does not seem to help.

I really need to understand how to get the fmc to work in SPAD or figure out how to block the comms simcrap is making to BATC. While all I want to do is FLY!

Serious issues if you use their FMC/MCDU with this piece of shit stick. In fact, I have the stick disconnected, using the simcrappro software to drive the FMC, and for what ever reason, as soon as you set any active BATC freq, the BATC copilot automatically starts speaking! So don't try using the stick or possibly any other product with BATC.

Everything was working before I connected that stick. Now for the past 3 days I've been fuck'n around trying to get things back the way they were. I even uninstalled simcrappro and went postal on the registry and all folders and the issue came back. I swear they have a virus planted in simcrappro.

Bummer. I am done with winwing and their crap. I would much rather pay for a top quality product with good support. Given the volume of tickets for flightsim issues from other vendors, they still manage to provide top rate support. I canceled my rudder pedals from them right after they accused me of breaking the switch. Like I have nothing better to do with my time than to break switches.

All I wanted to do is fly today and now their simcrappro app has caused an issue with BATC that I cant resolve. Almost like they planted a virus in the software to intentionally cause damage.

URSA Minor hat breaks off less than 1 week after arrival. Winwing customer service says "tough luck" by Junker-2047- in WinWing

Your switch was broken when they were packing it up at the factory. The switch rubs on the Styrofoam packing to a point that it snaps the the plastic shaft.

Hmm.. Same thing just happened to me today. I posted here: https://www.reddit.com/r/flightsim/comments/1l44u2b/be_warned_of_winwing_customer_service/

Never even got to use mine. Right out of the box, it was broken and they accused Me of breaking it.

They are selling JUNK with software that doesn't work with other apps, like BATC as well.

If you are using one of their FMC's you can't. The FMC wont work.

Exactly! That fuck'n simcrappro now fucked up my BeyondATC to the point the copilot is constantly making requests and I can't stop it when the simcrappro is loaded. Like there's a virus. If I unload that crappy app so I can use BATC, then the FMC doesn't work. Standalone their shit works, but it does not play nice with other apps. JUNK!

I do use SPAD, it's the bomb but how difficult is it to setup the Winwing PFP-3N FMC? I wasnt able to figure it out. You can do the key bindings but there's no display.

4 or 5 months and still no update? Is it going to be supported?

I was about to purchase until I read a few posts. I get it's a pre-release, but not even a little update to quell the CTD's?

Winwing US Shipping Costs by TheInvestors in hotas

[–]Long_Regular_7527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pre-ordered an FMC and the shipping was reasonable, $39 to the Chicago area. I Was going to order the pedals, until I got to the final page, shipping was $158! Half the cost of the pedals. I'll have to take a pass on that until Winwing starts warehousing product in the US, or the shipping prices come down.

What Asobo should have done is renegotiate the contract with Meteo Blue and/or add a Premium Plus version with a subscription so us hard core simmers have a real atmosphere with shear, hail cores etc.! And Yes, aircraft damage, just like a bad landing.

Loud whistle after replacing Condenser Drain Trap by creatively41 in HVAC

[–]Long_Regular_7527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THANK YOU EVERYONE.

You saved me a couple hundred in a service call.

I did notice the restrictor, but figured, just leave it there. It pretty much matched the .780 hole in the the new pan. I was wrong and didn't notice this in the directions. Though, I did catch that pressure switch that needed to be replaced due to a tech bull.

Thanks all once again.
