I bought G3.5 when it first came out (2006, I think), and used it to train my thumbs to start flying RC airplanes. I then had to leave RC, and am just now getting back into flying.
I have loaded G3.5 on my latest PC with Window 8 (which is a HP Pavilion), and for the most part it works. I am now retraining my thumbs to fly RC.
But there are a couple problems I am hoping someone can help me with. One is the amount of time it takes to load the program. I double click the launcher on Desktop, and it takes 1.5 minutes for the "Run Program" icon to pop up (with no screen indication during that time it is working). Then it takes another 1.5 minutes before the program loads (again during that time there is no screen indication it is working). This is more if an inconvenience than a program problem.
Next, I cannot select camera type. At first I thought it was the plane type that was restricting this function, but I have tried several aircraft types, and I can't pick camera type for any of them; even though the drop-down is there.
I was wondering if anyone using Windows 8 on the G3.5 program has successfully been able to get all the functions available to work?
