some problems with the 707. something know how to fix them?

-my airplane often crash (like when hitting another plane) when I perform pushback with engines started

-my aiplane bounch on the taxiway and when it's parked (causing som problems to civa alignment)

-my airplane, when I switch on the doppler navigation unit and I connect it to the ap (nav selct knob), follows the prefiled fsx flight plan... very confortable, but i'm not sure that's so realistic

do your airplanes do the same?
It's really annoying  Angry Angry Angry have a crash after have waited for 30 minutes for the CIVA alignment(and have paid 30 euros) ...

30 minutes alignment? No, that's too long, Giorgio. Use the fast align clickspot on the screw.
Also, before taxi or any movement, set the INS to NAV, so it stays aligned and ready for use. Check the Civa docs for details.

Bouncing plane? Crashes?
I don't have this, but I have crash detection set to off.  Undecided

first, thankyou for the reply

I wasn't compaining about the 30 minutes Wink, but it's frustating to restart the flight after a crash that doesn't exist... however i'll turn off the crash detection.

watch this video, is a review of the cs707 for fs9 (I have fsx):http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfwKGPfTTvg
at the 10 second the airplane "bounch" (0:11) like mine, and that cause civa errors... however it continue the allignment but it's annoying

about the doppler?

ah, what is this "fast allignment"?

thankyou

It's a trick, but don't tell anyone.  Tongue See that #4 clickspot? It will enable the fast alignment for you.



Find more of those things in the Civa\Docs folder inside the FSX root.

That bouncing shouldn't harm much, but it may help to enter slew mode and press F1 to make sure it's really on the calculated ground there. Just assuming though.
I think the sim nature of the Doppler is just that following of the plan, but I haven't used it that much I must admit.
