New jet in my hangar: Cessna Citation X

I wanted to have a very fast private jet in my fleet, so I purchased the Cessna Citation X (Eaglesoft DG). Unfortunately I had a few problems to get this beauty working:

  • Throttle levers seemed to be stuck.
  • None of the avionics are working. Instead a static image appeared on each screen.
  • REX WX Advantage Radar plugin isn’t working

To solve all problems, the following needed to be done:

  • Disable all kinds of virus scanners (e.g. Windows Defender) BEFORE starting the installation. After the installation you can enabled them again.
  • Install the following SimConnect package: %P3DINSTALLDIR%\redist\Interface\FSX-SP2-XPACK\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi
  • Edit the file %PROGRAMDATA%\ESDG\CitationX\ESDG_CitationX.ini.
    • Configure the FADEC section as follows, but ensure THE REGISTERED version of FSUIPC is correctly installed first. Also note that setting the ‘Throttles‘ to ‘1’ will disable the keyboard commands (F1-F4):
      LeftFadec=2
      RightFadec=2
      Throttles=1
      FSUIPC=1
    • Add the following section:
      [WEATHER]
      PROVIDER=WXR
