Hello, anyone here that owns the winwings boeing fms? For two days now I been trying to make this thing works with the Zibo 737, shows on the app shows connected but the display on the device is not on just the buttons are illuminated, the manual is not the best explaining what to do. Please if anyone can help
Idk if that's realistic but I don't like the way those light shadows look
Hi, I’ve had s really strange go- around, and wanted to hear if anyone else has experienced something similar. On a side note I’ve flown the a321 in xplane for years, and never experienced anything like this. I have done many, many go around, but this was new to me.
I was on app and accidentally pushed vert. Speed making the aircraft level off. I then executed a cancel app, i.e not moving the thrust levers to TOGA because I was pretty high. The ga flight plan was not activated, that is normal according to my knowledge, but the procedure hereafter would be to use the heading mode and then Dir function to go to the required waypoint. But after this I was not able to go direct to any waypoint. Even though selected and attempted multiple times. I ended up using conventional nav since the plane seemed to turn in some random direction when the dir function was used.
Anyone tried this before?
Cheers,
Hello all, is there a way in plane maker to improve the accurate fuel burn for x-crafts E-175's fuel burn and can we increase the ND range more than 80nm in planemaker? Thank you 😊
It actually works quite well. The sticks offer very precise control. Unfortunately, the buttons aren't recognized, so I can't use them. Anyone else use an R/C transmitter?
Hi guys, So I was flaying from KIND to KJFK with FSCharter on Xplane 11 with a Embrarer E175.
I am not very famigliar with this plane and using the approach button I crashed or stalled multiple times.
On this flight, I thought of doing the landing manually, it went surprisingly very smooth but I was amazed to see that FSCharter reported a 3ft/m landing rate. I saw the replay of the landing, and the plane was almost horizontal, with a very few degree nose up, so the rear wheels touched first. It was soo amazing I gathered the whole family to see the replay.
Is this even possible? Or recommended? I can see online that a good landing rate is about 350ft/m.
I bought a Sonnet 550 breakaway box and a Raedon AMD RX6600D purely for XP12.
I am getting issued a few minutes into flight which crashes my 2019 27“ Mac (all OS etc up to date).
I’ve removed scenery and any add ons. I am currently on the lowest graphics settings which allows me to fly a few minutes longer. But that spoils the fun when I can’t enjoy the scenery.
Any tips or tricks?
I think my graphics card may be overheating quickly which causes the crash, and would explain why it lasts slightly longer on lower settings. Without the eGPU, no crashes, but awful graphics.
Does anyone know how to perhaps test the GPU using a Mac?
Whats your recommendations for turboprop or piston aircrafts in xp12. My card is ready for one or two.

I'm trying to install OpenSceneryX but it is getting hung up 90% of the way through at this point:
Downloading /polygons/surfaces/grass/3/polygon_winter.pol...
The 8000 files up until this point downloaded without problem, and my internet connection is working great. I've quit and restarted the installer 3x but it still gets stuck on this one file. I have 1/2 Terabyte free so it's not a space issue.
Thanks for any ideas on how to proceed or to whom I can report this problem.
UPDATE: It appears that OpenSceneryX is abandonware. It has not been updated since 2020, the support contact page errors out when you hit "send", and there is not even an acknowledgement that it is obsolete as of XPlane 12.
I’ve emailed them 3 times. Got no response. I bought a CRJ-700 for my YouTube channel Turbo Aviation 737. I bought it yesterday with a UK credit card and address (my brothers) but I am in Bangladesh. They asked for a ID today and I gave it to them. Yet they still cancelled my order. Now it has been 2 hours and I have not received a refund yet. I was wondering how long it takes for a Refund to go through, or is X-Plane.org gonna steal my money and vanish
