V-One Takeoff and Landing Gauge w/Sounds (Updated)

Print Post  
I've updated this XML gauge for the CS 727-100/F and -200/F. Now includes LB / KG and °C / °F display.

Now in the Avsim library, search for:
V-One Gauge for B727-100/F 727-200/F with Call-Outs

The sounds:
  • 80 knots
  • V1
  • VR
  • V2
  • Gear Up
  • Flaps Up
  • Slats Retract
  • Trim Wheel Sound

The gauge will calculate the correct v-speeds for gross weight using flaps 5, 15 & 25 including the required trim units.
The v-speeds are also adjusted for altitude and temperature.
Optimum FL and EPR are displayed based on current gross weight and are continually updated.
Clean speed (no flaps) is calculated as is Vref30 and Vref40.
Fuel, Gross Weight, OAT (°C or °F) and CG are displayed.
If the current gross weight has exceeded the max gross weight a 'red' warning of overloading is displayed.
Elapsed flight time and fuel used can be reset at anytime by clicking on their displays.

The main gauge is a text display of:
  • Vertical Speed
  • Pitch
  • EPR
  • N1%
  • Fuel Flow
  • TAS
  • TAT
  • MCT (Maximum Continuous Thrust)

    After flap selection, the following will display:
  • Flaps selected
  • Required Trim/Current Trim
  • Vr & V2

Note: EPR, N1% and FF are for Engine 2 only.

Both the main gauge and datacard can be toggled off and on via an icon.

Thanks!

I have started on the 707 but haven't finished quite yet. I'm currently working on the 737 (which I'm just about finished with)  Wink

Does your V-One gauge work for CS727-200?

No it currently does not. The gauge could be altered easy enough though.

I may create a gauge in the future (no guaranties).

Got it, will look forward to the 707 one. I'm currently on a 707 binge so it will be really useful.

Yes a really useful tool and learning aid. It would be great to have one for the 200 as well. Great job.

Hey, Paul, I've added your great work to the small tweak and mods list we've assembled. Hope you are ok with that.  Smiley http://www.captainsim.org/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1319547655/4#4

Monday i did a small real flight (first attempt was just to see how it works so i started on the runway) and after taxiing from the gate to the runway and taking off the v1 etc stayed on 0.

Did i do anything wrong? When i start my FSX and start on the runway, it works fine.

Make certain to change your cockpit view to the 2D view once to properly initialize the gauge.
If you’ve added the gauge icons to the 'Simicons' (Shift+1), you can click on ‘v1’ to initialize as well.

Also, the v-speeds will not show any value until you select flaps, 5, 15 or 25. All other flap setting (0, 2, 30 and 40) will display '0'.

I recall i kept my flaps on 2, so that would have been the case. I will keep an eye on it, thanks Smiley

Paul: In your intruction you indicate that adding the gauge by drag and drop would work just as well; What about the .cfg changes I suppose these would have to be done anyway ?
I just have difficulty keeping up with so many folders open at the same time.
