In the meanwhile, can someone PM me details to get 4.3 back to see if that works for the time being?

Turns until overbanked on autopilot

Maybe someone can help me . I have not been able to fly this plane since the first time I purchased it correctly because of a problem with the autopilot. Sometimes (it does not follow a pattern) the airplane starts banking  until it crashes in the ground. I does not matter what I do I can select HDG SEL, LNAV, LOC it will continue to bank. The only way I can make the bank stop is to disconnect the autopilot and restart Flight Simulator. There are many other things like sometimes the FMC crashes because of the Navigation Data. But those things you can work around but this messes up your whole flight and you never know when it is going to happen. If anybody can help please do. Thank You

I'm sure you do but I'm still going to ask, Do you have fsuipc installed?
One day I was doing something tweaking maybe fsx Which I'm always doing can't remember exactly what and took fsuipc out of fsx and forgot about it. Then one day I fired up CS 757 taxied to the active took off climbed to 2000ft agl engaged the auto pilot and that thing started going wild like it had a mind of it's own. I was lost at what the problem could be and then I remembered fsuipc. Once I reinstalled Fsuipc all was normal again. I hope this helps and is the solution to your problem, If not I'm sure someone will come up with something. After all this is why we come here to share experiences and to help each other out.

Autopilot Problem
Reply #82 - Apr 20th, 2009 at 4:23pm
Print Post  
Whenever I disconnect the autopilot to fly the approach, the aircraft does not respond to control inputs and often times just drifts into a descent and crashes. I do this because the aircraft's autopilot has a difficult time following the correct glideslope on autoland. Does anyone have a quick fix for this? This is for FSX.

I read the recommendations for a FSUIPC downgrade to 4.3, I disconnected the autopilot and had immediate positve control of the aircraft. This is a comprehensive aircraft with lots of code so it will probably take CS some time to release a comprehensive patch to the many issues.

I had saved all FSUIPC 4 versions since 4.3 up to 4.507.- I tried them and noticed that the most recent version free of the AP disconnect issue is the 4.323, from the 4.325 up, all have that problem.-

Hello,

I have buy today at Simmarket the 757 and I make a first fly before to read this forum. I discovered the 4.2 version, so , I get it and install it... I also have had the problem with the autopilot, and couldn't take back manual control during approach.

Reading this topic : http://www.captainsim.org/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1227900846/15#15   I have make much more simple : I had saved old versions of FSUIPC.dll ... I simply have replace FSUIPC 4.4 with the 4.3 and the first tests seems to show that the problem is solved. I will make some other flights tomorrow and tell you if the problem have not be back.

It is very easy to change FSUIPC without desinstalling and reinstalling the 757... But it mean that you have saved old FSUIPC versions...


I have the same problem. I do the the same as you, I use the old FSUIPC to replace the 4.4 ver which installed by CS757. And the sometimes the same problem will happened. I am very sad.

This was the reply I got from Pete Dowson (FSUIPC), it should be very useful if Support reads it:

"There is a known issue with Capt Sim FSX B757.- It happens that after disconnecting tha AP, is imposible to regain manual control until 10 or 20 seconds later, which is rather annoying.- The cause has been determined as an incompatibity with FSUIPC"

Known? strange, then, that no one has written to me about it. If this aircraft uses FSUIPC and has run into a problem with later versions, someone should talk to me about it. There is no way I'm ever going to be able to buy and test all add-ons for FS for every new release of FSUIPC!

Did the person who determined this ever state why?

""... and in the forums, the recomandation is to go back to version 4.3.- I made some trials, and noticed that the most recent version free of the problem is 4.323, in newer versions I found the problem. Is there a workaround ?"

It sounds like a possible bug in the Captain Sim add-on: maybe they are not clearing the flag they must be setting in FSUIPC which tells it to disconnect controls. FSUIPC has a 10-12 second timeout on updates to that flag in case of bad or hung apps. If this is all it is I'm sure it is something they can fix quickly enough.
I'm not aware of any difference between version 4.323 and later versions which would change these things, though, unless it worked by fluke before because of some older FSUIPC bug now fixed. I really would need more information to help. Why has no one who knows what they are talking about contacted me?

Regards

Pete
