Aeroworx King Air B200 v2.1 Update!

[Sar71]

Hallo,

Aeroworx hat einen kleines Update für Ihre tolle King Air veröffentlicht:

GENERAL INFO
==========
This version includes an autopilot update which significantly improves the B200 autopilot's ILS LOC capture capability.

The autopilot will now sense the LOC and position itself for a proper intercept. In most cases there will be no overshoot of the localizer.

PROCEDURES
=========
Please remember that APPR must be armed in order for the autopilot to properly anticipate the intercept. We recommend that you intercept the localizer at approximately 170 knots maximum. We have found that speeds in the region of 150-160 work better, but at 170 it will still intercept nicely albeit with an ever so slight overshoot (much less than before).

With the AP engaged and HDG & ALT modes mode enabled, position the aircraft for LOC intercept. Whilst HDG mode is still enabled, hit APPR to arm the autopilot approach mode (this is also how it is done in the real aircraft). This must be done before the CDI needle becomes active.

Once the aircraft gets into close proximity of the LOC, the autopilot will sense the LOC and start making required adjustments for a proper intercept of approximately 30 degrees.

It is important to use the above technique, as arming APPR mode after the CDI needle has become active will render less effective results and will cause the aircraft to overshoot the localizer.

Once the intercept has been made, stabilize the approach at approx. 150 knots with gear down at approx 7 miles out and select full flap once landing has been comfirmed and speed is around 135 knots. These are guidelines only - we all have our own techniques, but the ones mentioned seem to work real well.

Wichtig: Mit diesem Update wird die Aircraft.cfg überschrieben!
Wer also Repaints installiert hat, sollte die Aircraft.cfg vorher sichern!
