  • Steve/Mike: I can confirm the behaviour of my LGT II, exactly as Mike is describing. The only difference is that at times, totally randomly it appears, the device will function just as the "real" gear lever. That means, that the lever will go all the way up to "UP", the same will happen in the airplane, the gear will…
  • Great comment Radial9 and great that you make it public. It is so necessary to highlight the positive as you did. I have known Steve for a very long time and I can attest to his long standing commitment, his knowledge and his dedication to this product that brings so much joy to so many of us in this hobby.
  • Perfect! And it does, indeed, work OK. Thank you for the fast turnover!! Many regards Roberto
  • On the first proper" flight after the excitement, I have found that all MCP Pro knobs increase/decrease in "fives" not in single digits. This applies to all the windows of the MCP Pro as well as the EFIS (altimeter setting). If I turn the corresponding knobs in the cockpit itself (VC) then the numbers increase/decrease in…
  • And it works flawlessly! Hooray!! Thank you Steve!
  • Thank you Mike! All of that noted Regards Roberto
  • It's the weekend. Let's give Steve a few days to digest the sudden news of the arrival of the NGXu. I'm sure there will be a solution soon. Roberto
  • OK. Thank you Steve. I did do the manual re-programming, but I will note these comments, as I am sure that, at some point, another hiccup will show up. Many regards, Roberto
  • Just to add intrigue to this mystery! Both RP-48's have started to work, by themselves! I did not do anything other than starting the PC and then the sim for a sunday afternoon flight. The only issue, is that all the controls of the RP-48's have been swapped! For example, if knob 1 of module "0" was "APU START" and knob 1…
  • Hello Steve: Something very strange and scary happened, but all is well now. After writing to you and starting my simulator computer (I exclusively use that computer only for simulation), there was a total crash of everything, including Windows, with an ominous blue screen full of information that I couldn't understand.…
  • Hello Steve: Today I got the same message. However, upon checking the last download and today's, I see that both are Version 3.6.3.1. Is there need to uninstall the old one and install the new in any event? Regards, Roberto
  • Hi: Try this: in the aircraft's CDU, choose: PMDG SETUP then: AIRCRAFT then: EQUIPMENT then: Page 20 (of 22) there, second selection MINIMUMS & BARO KNOBS select ROTARY that should do it Roberto
  • Thanks for all Steve. The backup file was, unfortunately, not helpful. Reprogramming it is!! An important lesson I learned this weekend, is to backup all the configuration files for the simulator and store them away from the simulator computer, just in case. Best regards, Roberto
  • Hi again Steve: Yes, minimizing the sim window solved that issue, and I will be able to reprogram GFIT. Now, for what I hope is the last question on this issue. Is there a way to retrieve the original settings file, before the system halted on Saturday? Is it hidden somewhere or, with all my attempts to fix issues over the…
  • Hello Steve. I hope the weekend passed OK. I transferred (and renamed) the .bak files. Unfortunately, I think that with all the attempts I made to fix the issue over the weekend, the original .bak files were likely overwritten. Their creation dates, show yesterday's. The situation is as follows. All the buttons and…
  • Hello Steve: Just an update on my situation. I have managed to program a few switches, buttons and rotaries. This is a rather intermittent process, because most of the time, the combo drop down menus do not work. Even when I restart GFIT. As the boxes are all gray, I cannot program the respective modules. When I start…
  • Hi Steve! Love it! A new computer, that practically dimmed the lights of the city when it was turned on the first time :-) :-) A three-monitor set-up! And after almost four days of uninstalling stuff from one computer, installing it into the new one, fine-tuning, and telling my wife that "we are leaving as soon as this…
  • And finally, problem solved! Transposed the cables in the USB ports. Cheers. Roberto
  • Steve: I now know what happened, but not how to resolve it. The new computer, has allocated new "device number" to the various modules where I have multiple units. For example, what the old computer identified as "Device 0" for one type of module, is now "Device 1" etc. Therefore, all the assignemnts that I had for one…
  • thank you Steve! Cheers, Roberto
  • Ok, Steve. Thank you. Looking forward to whatever solution you will surely find. Enjoying the GIT with the PMDG products (P3Dv4.1) though! Many regards, Roberto
  • Hi Thomas: You don't mention if you have installed the GoFlight Interface Tool for X-Plane, that is different from the one that is used for the Microsoft Flight Simulator or Prepar3d. If you haven't, you have to purchase it and install it. I did that when I switched to X-Plane (for a short while) and had no problems using…
  • Hello Steve: Rebooted the computer after doing the changes you suggested and, now, all is well! Thanks! Roberto
  • Hi Steve: Did all that but, unfortunately, with the same results. Roberto
  • Thank you Steve! Will do all that. Cheers Roberto
  • Great!! Thank you
  • Great!! Thank you
  • OK. Thx Steve. I found the proper GIT (I am old enough to forget that I don't remember. I had to reset my password in the shop, and all is well) I'll wait for L-M to release the hotfix. And, if I may. Will we be able to, eventually, "migrate" our GIT settings in P3Dv3 to P3Dv4? Many regards, Roberto
  • At the risk of sounding "uninformed", is this a release for Beta only? I checked my downloads in my L-M's account, and only version 12468 is showing. And, is the GIT new version identified in a particular manner? Again, I was not sure if I should just purchase/download the P3D option. I apologize for the "silly" questions,…
