Hi,
Is there a way to change the default state to be C&D?

Hello!

Now that you can save your own panel states, how can you set it as the default one? Thanks!

A default state is always the state you saved a flight (.fxml) with.

Battery is on for example.

One can't save BATT OFF and Standby Power OFF via FMC because they must be ON to power FMC.
But in the uploaded file whey are edited to OFF.

For when we initially load the plane. The first time it is loaded, the aircraft is ready for takeoff, i'd like to have it cold and dark and with captain view if possible, can we configure that ourselves?

I know i can load the state from the FMC and press "A" once to go into captain view, but it's a nuisance i could (and more people for sure) pass without.

Thank you, very nice job with the 757 and thank you for reading!

Sure:
- While in the 757 load a state of your choice.
- Set a viewpoint of your choice.
- Press ; to save the flight.
Done. From now on the flight will be loaded with the state and view.

Hi

I too am looking for a way to always load the aircraft with a given cockpit state, usually cold & dark. In general I don't start from a previously saved flight, but start from the P3D Scenario screen.

Is this possible?

Yes:

5. Push – sets the DEFAULT panel state loading ON/OFF.

DEFAULT STATE
If a new custom sate is saved/named DEFAULT and the LOAD DEFAULT PANEL STATE option is ON, the custom sate will be loaded as the default state.

Will appear in the manual next update.

Hello:

I'm still confused on how to save "Ready for Take-Off" as my default panel state.  Could you please explain step-by-step on how to accomplish that.

Thanks.
