Fly The Maddog Manual

[Janise Knollman]

Yepstart with Chucks guide as above. But unless you have some real life experience, be warned, that it can be frustrating in the beginning. The first time I flew the Maddog on P3D it took me 6 hours (!) to finally be able to start the engines (it was a simple thing I forgot in the end, but somehow didn't find out until an extensive youtube tutorial watching). It's incredibly rewarding to be able to fly it, but it will take some time; it's closer to the 737 than to the Fenix obviously, but the 737 really seems like a ultramodern airliner compared to all the manual stuff you got to do on the Maddog ?

What you will really take advantage of is the FMC, which is basically like in the 737 NG (except for the font is green). But anti-ice, hydraulics, ILS, electrics will be different, and above all the autopilot. What took me a long time to get used to was that when I am in IAS mode (which is basically LVL CHG), the climb/descent rate is NOT being controlled by the speed knob (like you would on the 737), but by the wheel which on the 737 is used in the VS-mode only. So in fact you are using the VS-wheel to set the speed you want to use for IAS mode... instead of the speed knob. That was incredibly hard to get ouf of my head, didn't make sense to me.

I guess telling you that the Maddog, the Fenix A320 and the PMDG 737 all happily coexist on my machine isn't very helpful.... I will say though that more than a few of us have had MSFS hang on loading (won't sync with the cloud server). When this happens to me, a restart of the PC usually clears it.

So in fact you are using the VS-wheel to set the speed you want to use for IAS mode... instead of the speed knob.

A "gotcha" is when you descend into the TMA on "IAS 230" for example but has the actual speed window set at 250. Remember, these are two different display windows on the AP panel. Of course the MD80 will now start to accelerate just as you leave IAS descent for "ALT HOLD" (when speed control is transfered from "speed on pitch" to "speed on thrust"). Has happened to me many times ?

Not a guide. But when you are in IAS mode and turn the VS wheel you will see in the little window to the left of the VS wheel that the target speed appears and is changed as you turn the wheel. All the while the speed knob and the speed window on the left side stay at whatever you set them.

Since those planes like the Maddog and the 737 have VNAV and auto-throttle and that all LVL changes and speeds are stored within your flight plan in the FMC and done accordingly with the autopilot, in which case scenarios do you have to use IAS mode like that? Because I often see people talking about it so it seems like a very common usage but I never seem to have to use it so I'm guessing something's wrong in my piloting airliners skills as of yet...

Totally new to Roots Magic 8. Is it possible that someone has the time and inclination to write a two page instruction, that can be printed out, showing the basics of how it works from scratch. I just want a main person without ending up with multiples. Current tutorials on line assume I am familiar with it all. The jargon/language is sometimes unfamiliar. Help please!!!

Have you consulted Wiki? See Help and Support from your home page, Wiki documentation, link here: RootsMagic 8 Wiki and specific to adding people: Adding People It is online and not printable in its entirety but in the left column there is a link for a printable version of the page you are looking at.

RM7 had an excellent and simple user manual still available from amazon and google that would help with the terminology and layout. RM8 is very different, lacks a manual but the wiki and tutorials will help significantly.

Thank you - All those suggestions very helpful. Software should have a jargon buster built in and explain what happens if you enter something and the effect it has on everything else. Too much to ask I realise, for a novice like me. Slowly getting to understand.

Engine: Air bypass (above APU starter switch) > Fuel Pumps On (all three of them) > Hydraulics On (all four switches; they are to the right of the center console) > back of center console, two lever switches to either side (don't know what they are called... oops.) > Fuel Access (also not sure what these are called...) which are between and behind the throttle... move these up to on > Engine Select Both > Engine 2 Start > Engine 3 Start

For the record, my own reading of the above listed manuals showed that there were enough differences to make them not too useful. A well-written guide/manual for the actual XP11 MD-82 would be really great. Hope my little bit here helps somebody though.

Not sure why you are using emergency power... I've only used it once when I shut off my APU during flight and my battery died (either I'm not doing something right, or the plane is bugged: thinking it's the latter). You definitely don't need it for engine start.

I use the Saitek panels and when I switch on the battery the emergency power switch is also activated and can not be switched on or off separately. I did edit the xsaitekpanels.ini file and it's ok now. I was able to take off and even engage the auto pilot :-). At the moment still have the low bleed-air alarm though, but we are making progress :-)

Look at the base of the of the center console which is in between the two seats. There is two grey levels near the floor on the front panel (assuming you are looking as you walked in he cockpit), click them with your mouse and push up.

Cursor/Enable (CURSOR/ENABLE) Control. This control is used for slewing of the fire control radar cursor or TGP/weapon video. Depressing the control changes the BORE/SLAVE option for the AIM-9 and AIM-120

Thanks chaps, yes David OC my HOTAS is correctly bound and working correctly with Aim 9s so what Svend_Dellepude said makes sense that it is simply not implemented yet then. Yes I guess I could bind an OSB like you say, that would be a temp workaround.

Sorry to necro but this came up when searching for the Maddog switchology. Like OP mentioned, per the manual (and from other Viper sims) a press and hold of the cursor/enable should change 120s from SLAVE to BORE as long as cursor/enable is held down, but that doesn't seem to be working for me in AA master mode. The SMS still shows the missile in SLAVE. Am I missing a step, or is the cursor/enable function implemented and the visual SLAVE-->BORE change on the SMS isn't in yet?

This features a complete parts manual for the Icebear Maddog Scooter Generation 1 50cc and 150cc scooters. Also includes content such as OEM Manufacturer Part Numbers, Official Part Names, Engine Component Details, and more.

I think what I am looking for is a complete Flight Operations Manual or Flight Crew Training Manual. It appears as though the information at the referenced website is a checklist for the MD-80. I was able to find a very detailed 274 page flight crew training manual for the 737, but not the MD-80. If you know of any websites offering that information let me know.
