vLSO Beta release
burner12:
I don't know what my problem is ,but I installed the program but never hear the sound only text at the top.

Been away for awhile and just now got to test out the new Beta. I’d say it’s just about perfect except that it promotes to long of a groove length. Specifically, it wants you to be wings level prior to ¾ of a mile. Yes, glideslope intercept and the ball call are at ¾ of a mile, but to get a proper groove length you won’t be wings level until somewhere like 0.6 – 0.5. When I do that, it grades me as “very lined up left at the start”. Is there a way to start the groove time and the grading when you roll wings level?
micro:
Here's a vid of what I mean. I roll wings level at 3:00 and thus have a 17 second groove length. This is a replay using FS-Recorder so the "airspeed" displayed is really ground speed. It was a 3 wire the first time around but the replay must have been off a touch as it shows a 2 wire. Sorry about the sound.

micro,
thanks for your input!

Currently the vLSO doesn't care about your banking. It just starts the groove timer and grading as soon as you call the ball, either automatically (i.e. passing the ¾) or manually (in this case you can be closer to the ramp).

No problem, let's give it a try. I suppose that the banking angle of ±3..5 degrees would be nice :)

I guess I should say that it wants you to be within line-up limits by ¾ of a mile. To do that you would have to be wings level somewhere like 0.7nm giving you about a 20 second groove at best. I used the manual ball call in the previous beta but it doesn’t seem to be an option in the new one. Am I missing something?
