II am trying to utilize some gauges from the 146 project into another aircraft. For some reason the guages, after being modifed by FS Panel Studio, will not operate. They download onto the other panels, but appear as if there is no electrical power going to them...(all the fail flags in view).
Trust me...I LOVE this panel and find the detail very impressive. I am building a simpit and this platform was my first choice...the only problem is my MCP pro does not work with it. Even after I swap out the autopilot, the functions are a bit wacky.
By using any addon 146 with a generic FS panel, (any from the listed file), I found swapping out the autopilot system with the MSFS generic allows my goflight MCP pro to work flawlessly.
FS Panel Studio will allow me to ADD gauges or MODIFY exsisting ones to the exsisting panel (ML's panel) with no problem. It is just that the removed gauges from ML's panel do not operate on another panel...
I would really love to use the engine gauges...I cannot find any of such detail thus far...
I hope I am not overstepping my bounds here. I give the highest regard to the work done here.

As far as the TMS is concerned. There are no charts for setting temperature on the ALF502 or LF507. The only charts would be for setting the N1ref or flex for takeoff which is based on pressure altitude and temperature.
This N1 value is allowed to increase 1 percent per 1000 feet in the climb, assuming a standard atmosphere.
After takeoff, we would set in the master engine TGT in the temperature window, then make a selection of TGT + SYNC mode. This will control the master engine at the selected TGT value and drive the remaining engines to the masters N1 speed. During climb we would advance the TGT in 20 degree increments until the hottest engine reached 800 degrees.
After this we would select a straight TGT of 800, (no sync mode). This will drive all engines to 800 degrees. This would give a small variance in N1s and N2s, but it got us to altitude quicker.
MCT was only used in the event we lost an engine. MCT would drive all the engines independantly to there Maximum thrust output of 96.7 n1, 96.9 n2, or 857 degrees TGT, whichever value was reached first.
Contrary to the simulator profile, in the real aircraft the engines will get hotter as you climb because you are asking them to work harder. The sim profile has them getting cooler as you climb.
A typical reduced thrust takeoff at ISA conditions would show a takeoff TGT of approximately 760 degees C. As you climb, and add power. You would reach 800 degrees at about 15000 feet...depending on the atmosphere.
Although BAe states 857 degrees is max continuous. We found that a lot of hot section stress occurs on the engines at temperatures above 800 degrees. (857 was always available to us, but we would only go to 800 with engine anti-ice off, 810 with engine anti-ice on, and 830 with airframe ice on.
To give a closing example, on a hot summer day at FL280, we would normally have 800 degrees on all the engines trying to maintain .68 mach.
Hello. I am building a simpit using the 146 panel platform.
Does anyone know if the mouse capture function of Peter Dowsons FSIPCU works on either the 146 or Avro panels with respect to operating the overhead panel switches with keystrokes as opposed to mouse clicks?.
I am building a simpit and I would like to use the 146 panel project as my sim platform. I would like to wire the overhead switches throught an interface card which will allow the addition of actual rocker switches.

First off, I would like to congratulate the author of such a fine freeware product. Having over 10,000 hours in the real BAE/RJ 85, I can tell you it is a magnificient piece of software, and is as close as you will get to the operations and systems of the Aircraft without crawling into the real aircraft..... I do have a question....does this addon interface with go flights MCP Pro hardware?? I can't see why it wouldn't because the Avro MCP is very close, if not identical, to the 737NG of which go flight based it's design.
