Plan-G / Re: NDB Radios beacons
May 01, 2022, 11:21:09 PM
Thank you guys. We are conversant with the Airport Editor.
What I WOULD like is a way of extracting the NDB from FSX to a file.

I have (of course!!) an old install of PlanG with FSX data installed on an old hdd, I suppose I could run THAT and the Airport Ed in FS20 and manually add them.
Discussing this very thing with my Admin guy for our Sim Group, I shall try this, and report back.
Are we succesfull, we will puplish a series of addons for install into the Community Folder.


Where do I know Frank Turley from, is the next question.

Plan-G / NDB Radios beacons

Tim, would it possible to extract the NDB data from FSX and inject it into FS2020?
Either as a new release or preferably as an update.

We really enjoyed flying the ADF system, and FS20 is reflecting the real worlds slow dismantling of that very excellent and valuable resource.

Thank you.

Grumpy....

Arriving late.....  AGAIN, seems to be the story of my life...............
BUT I am wishful of using Ubuntu 14.04 and later for as much as I can, including Plan-G.   if possible.

Thanks, Tim.

Plan-G / Re: NDB and ADF

I have implemented ADF two in the Aircraft.cfg files of all aircraft that i regularly fly.
Rebuilt the bendix/King radio stack to create the ADF2 receiver, dropping out the AP to let the mod occupy the same space.
We had to modify the new ADF  radio panel to reflect the correct calls by FSX and it works excellently, merely have to insert the required freq by hand.

I can send you the appropriate files and pictures if you need?

All i need now is the Plan-G facility to emulate the usefulness allsame as the "Set VOR Freq to NAV1 radio" or "Set VOR Freq to NAV2 radio" on the drop-down box from a radial.

Regards and apologies for the delay in replying to your answer.

Plan-G / NDB and ADF

Greetings Tim, and a hearty "well done" for your brainchild.

I and a small group of a few dozen are ardent DC3 pilots, and are having fun with the ADF system. 
  We are also wishful of using BOTH ADF receivers as fitted to quite a few FSX aircraft, is there some way of using PlanG to "Set NDB  on  ADF-2 radio" as well as ADF-1?   I refer, of course, to the context sensitive menu available when mousing over and right clicking the ADF icon.

Thank you.   Bob P

The headings change over time as the3 Earth precesses.   Annual declination, putting runway headings would, in time, be wrong anyway.
