No ADF, NAV (VHF), COM or AP

Hi all;

(Spec: FSX-SP2, XP-SP3, C130X 1.3)

When I start a flight with the C-130 everything works ok. Then, after about 15 to 20 mins, the VHF equpment (NAV, COM, ADF) and AP stops working.

- The COM is on (current freq show in display) but I can't contact ATC.
- Not possible to change frequency on the NAV's or ADF.
- AP dead, can't even use power button.

When i click buttons in the panels (VHF/AP) the sound works but no reaction on the instruments.

I start a flight without a flightplan, take off, get to a decent height and then just fly straight ahead for about 15 to 20 minutes before the equipment fails. The first 10 mins of the flight everything (NAV, COM, AP) works as expected, then it suddenly stop working.

Any ideas ?

I have the same problem tiltman. No reaction from CS. Bad luck for us
Don't hesitate to contact me via PM.Maybe we can find together something wrong.

To add I have FSUIPC registered and infinite battery set.So this problem should never happen (well in theory)
regards
Yves

Yes, I did make a KB of this and CS staff just returned me a link on how to reinstall... but I won't. The thing is I'm going to set up a new PC soon so I've decided not to put too much work into the current installation.

Anyway, to "fix it" I just save the flight then load it again. Not a solution but a workaround for me until the new rig is up.

I was looking around in the aircraft.cfg file. to see if maybe when i added a new paint job it messed something up. As far as i could tell nothing wrong. But I did notice something. Our problem isn't an avionics bus power problem. The AP isn't even on the avionics bus. I'm wondering if this is a problem between CS and FSUIPC? I'm going to try an earler version of FSUIPC tonight.

Can't see it being FSUIPC4 as I have this installed and updated about 4 times now with no issues as you describe. On completing startup of all engines, have you flicked all the relevant switches to where they should be??

James.

Yes all the switches are where they should be. And it's just the Com, ADF, NAV, AP, and GPS are loosing power. Every other system that needs power is continuing to stay on. And as i was saying the AP isn't even on the Avionics bus.
