• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Hi All,

Just been going through the Simulation Variables list.

I note the following:

Code: 
FLY BY WIRE ELAC SWITCH
FLY BY WIRE FAC SWITCH
FLY BY WIRE SEC SWITCH
FLY BY WIRE ELAC FAILED
FLY BY WIRE FAC FAILED
FLY BY WIRE SEC FAILED

The descriptions relate to a fly by wire computer...I was wondering if anyone had given this a go? Are these basic pitch and alpha limiters, or automatic trim etc?

Just curious that's all, I'm not in any form a modeller of any calibre so could never use them, but as a Avionics engineer the replication of such systems interests me greatly!

All the best,

Alex

They relate to the switches on the overhead in the Airbus in FSX. But whether they do any more than that I've no idea.
