The developer can not reproduce and no one steps forward with the same oscillating issue. So i conclude my fg installation simply can not fly the plane.

Btw, there can be many reasons why people do not experience the issue, while still having it. If they do not fly the plane like i do: above fl 300 on manual autopilot. Maybe children of the magenta never notice it, because on route manager the problem may not reveal itself. And if others always fly below fl 300 they do not notice any problem either.

Anyhow, i am fine with not flying the plane if my fg installation is the only one exposing this problem. I am perfectly happy in the 777 instead.

Kind regards, Vincent

I am looking to try this problem out when I can get some "air" time.
I am considering using this exact aircraft in my festival Fly in and this bug could mean I need to switch aircraft of choice, if encountered.

I'll report later.

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

Please others try.

I have had many test and have not this issue.

The odd thing is the plane's AP does things which it is not allowed to do. I can't understand that part. Something must be wrong with your FGFS.

All the lights work :D
MD-90's EPR gauge will be corrected to the correct numbers (1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6) soon.

*PLEASE NOTE*
This is not final work!

Also coming soon is a brand new FMA. (thanks again @chad3006!)

The update is out with the new ITAF, and new EPR autothrottle, and the new engine panels!
I had to restart the FMA, so it's not working right now. Will work on it as soon as possible.

MD-90 engines can now be textured! txt_vstab_engines.rgb file.

Thrust limits are fixed at the moment.

I found and fixed the bug KL-666 was talking about. It was due to a problem with ITAF's target roll computer PID which has now been fixed. I've applied the update, and retuned the Roll control.

@KL-666
Would you mind to test again?

Thanks
J

Hi It0uchpods,

No, i would not mind at all to test, but i forgot which source to use. Is it just fgmembers?

Kind regards, Vincent
