Default AFP Glich problem

When running AFP every 3 or 4 mins. there is a Glich, the planes" jumps" I have the screen saver off, I've even tried "msconf" and disabled every thing, tried turning off the firewall/virusscan, and it still does it. It's driveing me crazy, cause you'll be flying along and everything is smooth and then it "jumps" for a split second. Anyone have this problem before? Thanks, Fast Fly

The trouble i am haveing is the plane will be flying along and the plane will go crazy and crash, and sometimes the screen will just go blank. When i move the mouse the screen will come back on again . Do you know what the problem is?

Seams AeroFly doesn't respond much to questions around here.

I'm having a problem with my screen locking up. Been asking questions for a week--no support from AF.

I thought this was a manufacturer support forum? [>:]

I called Ikarus USA at 239-690-0003

After about 3 questions....pretty basic stuff really...I.E. what kind of Radio...PCM or PPM....does it glitch with the radio not plugged in..ect..ect...

They told me to send in the cable for repair / replacement!

QUick..Direct..and to the point....


I'm sending it out tomorrow...

All I can say is Top Notch Service thusfar....

Just too bad that such an expensive SIM can be brought to it's knees by the cable.

Oh well....Copy Protection has it's price.

Run a ground wire from the computer chassis to your radio - solved my problem....

If your cable is glitching it most likely is defective. Call 239-690-0003 and they will replace it.

For the person whose screen is locking up, turn off your screensaver, that is the problem.

I had some really bad glitching but it doesn't do it near as much now and I'm not sure why. What would happen is that the plane would be flying along just fine and then it would seem to almost lock up and start again then lock up and start again, over and over. The whole action would just slow down and get real jumpy. It's pretty much gone now and the only thing I can remember changing on my computer is switching to Spy Doctor and Registry Mechanic from PC Tools. I ran the registry mechanic software and it came up with hundreds of "problems" in the registry. I ran the fix and got rid of the problems that it pointed out. I really don't know if that is what helped it at all but it does seem to run better after that. It runs much smoother now and doesn't get glitchy very often.

Could you monitor your processes by hitting control alt delete and looking at windows task manager with nothing running. Go to performance and see if you notice something spiking every 3 or 4 minutes. Maybe an application is starting up like a virus scan or maybe a piece of spyware or Skype. Download Windows Defender from the Microsoft site, it is free and run a full system scan.

try removing the crystals from your radio if they are still in, this fixed my glitching.
