A340-200. A340-313X, A340-600HGW and A340-600VIP

Postby Octal450 » Fri May 06, 2016 9:30 am

I have been giving these planes some work, first is beginning to fix the AP. I have installed my IT2 Autopilot system, and it is hooked up to the dialog, PFD, and MCP. It works decently, of course, I will tune it for the plane, so it flies even better. The FlightGear forum thread will keep track of my improvements to the A340-313X and A340-600HGW. I may or may not crosspost, so here you go: https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=29511

The new APs are stable, and can perform full long flights (LNAV works) without crashing, spinning, loosing controls ETC. Next I will work on Autothrottle, and possibly FBW. All knobs and switches are connected and working. The IT2 Autopilot is still in development, and some internal AUTOFLIGHT systems will be tuned/changed, and these planes will receive those updates.

@legoboyvdlp
If you come on mumble, I can walk you through adding the IT2, and updating it to your A340-200 (based of the 313X).

Josh -- I am going away till Tuesday. No internet.

However, it should be simple enough to do it -- I can probably do it myself.

Not really, the IT2 AUTOFLIGHT is designed to be heavily integrated, if you give me push to your repo, I will install it for you.

Sure, but break it... and I will ban you from your own Mumble thing! :D :D

Joking, obviously.

HAHAH
Off course you can't make a big break on a repository. You can always revert, go back, correct... etc
Repos are development sandbox, things are there to be modified. Not to be careful of not changing.

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

Now the A340-200 has the IT2 AUTOFLIGHT. It is in FGMEMBERS.
