As you blast along a ridge at 100knots+, the netto gauge will correctly indicate strongly rising air - remember this does not mean you are actually climbing, you need the Winter TE indication for that. In general in still air the Netto should read zero regardless of the steady speed you're flying. If you do something to change (worsen) the performance of the glider (open airbrakes, put wheel down, dump ballast) the netto instrument will recognise the glider is descending relative to the calibrate performance and interpret that as the air must be sinking outside the glider. This is by *far* the most useful indication of lift to help your cross-country performance whether thermalling or ridge soaring. This means the needle is indicating what the outside air is doing, so long as the performance of the glider is exactly as calibrated. The *needle* now reads 'NETTO', which is the TE climb/sink reading above adjusted again for the sink due to the aircraft glide ratio at the current airspeed.TE needle, but if not you'll see it swing wildly as FSX just uses pure vertical climb.
Of the FSX 'variometer rate' - if you have CumulusX running this will display pretty much the same as the main The tiny red needle you might have noticed is a backup display Further information on the total energyĬalculation can be found on the Wikipedia here. Reading is *identical* to the uncompensated 'vertical climb' reading. 'stick thermals' based purely on the pilot pushing or pulling on the stick. To the displayed climb/sink rate if you are accelerating or decelerating. The basic principle is simple - add or subtract a 'compensating value' So if you have that there's little change. CumulusX *also* provides this calculation The instruments in the SOAR DG808S have been modified from the Microsoft original.ĭisplays 'Total Energy' lift/sink, rather than vertical climb. The update was a team effort by members of. The SOAR DG808S updates the original Microsoft model for FSX with new instruments, sounds, andĪ more accurate flight model.
