曝光台 注意防骗 网曝天猫店富美金盛家居专营店坑蒙拐骗欺诈消费者

(even though very unlikely) for windows to drop a file from your system. This can cause particular
problems if it happens especially in relation to the main program ini files which hold not only user entered
information but also specific information about your install.
For this reason we advise two key things that should help to prevent problems:
• You can disable the disk cache in the device manager, HD properties, policies tab, this will help
prevent files being lost in the cache.
• On regular intervals, copy the contents of your (for example mcp.ini file) into the special BNI file
which resides in your main program folder.
o To do this open your (for example mcp.ini) file with the windows notepad editor
o Copy the contents of the file
o Open the mcp.bni file again with the windows notepad editor (you may have to select it as
the program of choice to edit/open this file)
o Past in the information that you copied from the original mcp.ini file.
o Close and save the mcp.bni file
• Now the information is saved as a back-up in the BNI file. If for whatever reason your system
should drop or delete the main program ini file then the MCP program will automatically search for
the BNI file and create a new main program ini file using the back-up information in the BNI file.
The reason why the BNI file is a useful tool is that it will help to avoid an interruption of your software
usage if the ini file is for some reason lost. You need to remember to perform the above process regularly
especially if you are making changes to the ini files on a regular basis and making program updates.

Navdata Updates
Navdata is available for update from the website usually on monthly cycles. Please see the website for
specific details of how to update and how to obtain new data.
http://www.projectmagenta.com/downloads/navdata.html
The navdata “latest” updates are not free of charge, you will be directed to the company providing the
source and you need to follow their instructions to download them.
Generally, once you have downloaded the new data you have to unzip/install the file contents of that data
into the main program folders of either the CDU or GC. Once that is done, start the respective programs,
and the program itself will sort the new navdata and put the files in the correct folders.
Note that when the CDU / MCDU starts, you need to navigate to the IDENT page and select the new nav
data using the LSK keys. You will see the current cycle indicated, and either the new one or previous cycle
available in the IDENT page. You must select which cycle you want to use. It is important that the cycle
also matches the cycle that you have downloaded and installed in the GC. It may be required that you are
“connected” to MSFS for the update to take place properly.
Please note, that if you update navdata then you will also need to update your respective paper charts.
They also need to match or at least to be checked against your new navdata.

Flight Models
This is a supplementary article. The reason for which is to stress the importance of correct loading and
balance of your flight models.
For successful and controlled flight using Project Magenta software it is important that you have a good
flight model. To some degree the software will try to learn the characteristics of your particular chosen
flight model but this can only go so far.
Flight models that are made and have internal characteristics that are outside the realistic flight envelopes
may present problems. These range from difficult to follow FD’s (because perhaps the aircraft is out of
balance) to unstable approaches with the AP engaged and inaccurate altitude captures. The problems
stemming from very inaccurate flight models can have a detrimental effect on what is perceived to the
pilot. Project Magenta does not provide flight models and it is good practice to find good models for use
with MSFS and spend considerable time researching and testing in this area to fully realize the potential of
the simulation. It should be stressed, this is not a limitation of MSFS, in fact, the simulation platform has a
very powerful flight model engine, it is more that this needs to be fully realized by the end user, whether
the end user is editing these characteristics themselves, or has chosen third party add-on flight models.
Having found a good flight model, the second and equally important factor to effective and realistic
operation of your simulation platform is weight & balance.
Weight & Balance
The weight and balance of your flight model is fundamental to effective performance and operation of your
