ORBX Vector for v5 released
« on: June 05, 2020, 02:30:34 PM »
After initial release of P3dv5 ORBX said an ORBX Vector is no longer needed.

Now, they have released an update for Vector for v5......it seems to be some kind of ORBX Vector light....

Here‘s the link to the ORBX announcement:

That's kind of interesting but also it was somehow clear that it is needed.

Thanks for mentioning.

Unable to correct airport elevations with this Vector Lite
It was the setting I used the most in P3D v4.5
One airport I use -Mariposa- on the way to Yosemite -uncorrectable

Des, that‘s it why it‘s called Vector Lite.....they turned off the Airport elevation correction tool  :-[

Vector makes the default flight planner very slow and sometimes it freezes or selects the wrong airport.  With Vector off the default flight planner works as it should.  I have noted this in the ORBX forum, and others have agreed there is a problem.  No solution yet.

I confirm the default flight planer is slowing down when Vector is installed.
Typing in an airport name or icao takes a few seconds till v5 switches to this airport.....

I'm having the same problem here. Is there a solution?
