Hello there, how would the developers assess the validity of reduced T/o thrust flex temperatures suggested by Simbrief, in particular those provided with their airframe preset for the RJ100 variant? The v speed values are always close to the booklet in the cockpit, but whenever I have rather heavy departures, the given values lead to very poor takeoff and climb performance, in extreme case the resulting N1 settings amount to a lower thrust rating than reduced climb thrust. I wouldn't say it is outright wrong, for example the long runways of Athens allow for a 50 second takeoff run and RTO one knot before V2, yet not nearly with the margins presented by simbrief. Also the climb was easily within said departure's minimum climb gradient, but I can't imagine it is meant to be flown in such shallow climbs. So what could be a better source? Thanks.

I have just looked into this, and it doesn't look like the PRIMER control assignments are supported in the PA38. I have therefore logged this on our internal bug tracker, and we'll add support for those in the next update. Thanks for reporting this. Mark - Just Flight

Hi Guys, Just trying to assign the vertical speed to the Vulcan autopilot in MSFS 2024. I have set up the same keybind as I have in 2020 (which works fine) the only issue is that in 2024 the autopilot pitch doesn’t allow me to assign a keybind. The switch inside the cockpit works however when I try and use my throttle quadrant autopilot panel it doesn’t work. Is it the same keybind as in 2020? Thanks @JustFlight

The locked cockpit seats are intentional logic in the MSFS 2024 versions of the F28 to work around a simulator limitation. See point 5 in the following FAQ: https://support.justflight.com/en/support/solutions/articles/17000145497-f28-professional-msfs-2024-known-limitations Thanks for the feedback regarding noise reduction/headphone option. Although nothing is planned at the moment, we have added that to our internal feature request tracker for consideration in a future update. Mark - Just Flight

I might have found a possible cause, but I'll need to test more to see if I've nailed it down. The error message seems to pop up right at the end of pushback as the tug lowers the nosewheel. It seemed a bit unrealistic to have it lift the nosewheel for pushback at all as I've only ever seen 146s push with a towbar, so I went into "Customise Airplane" in GSX and unchecked "pushbackRaise" which was on by default. I started a new flight and didn't get an warnings about the gear, and can get rolling at a more realistic power setting. So for now it seems to be an issue with the way GSX and the 146 interact in 2024. Watching from the external cam I did notice that the tug didn't actually lift the wheel, and the effect comes from the nose strut extending. I never looked at other planes though I'll have to check now, but I wonder if that might have some impact?

Yes, depending on the MSFS Traffic settings, MSFS could be generating online/offline traffic in addition to the traffic generated by the FS Traffic module. To ensure that FS Traffic is the only source of traffic generation in the simulator, we would recommend double-checking that the MSFS Traffic settings match those in the Quick Start Guide on pages 8 and 9 of the FS Traffic manual: https://downloads.justflight.com/products/JFF003616/FSTraffic_MSFS_manual.pdf Mark - Just Flight

@Mark said in Elevator trim not working: I have just tested this and I am seeing the tail plan position indicator move between +5 and -3 by triggering the elevator trim assignments This is the expected behaviour. Regardless of flight model. The manual still states +3 and -5 degrees tail plane trim. The tail plane indicator should move even when trimmed on the ground because its offset is changed, no aerodynamic trimming with tabs. Me (today) and @jaspar11 (2 years ago) are getting only -0.5 degrees and 0.5 degrees movement on the indicator. That is half a mark. Barely visible even at full trim. How to check that trim is neutral befor take off, as the manual requires? We can't

@Paulcoy did you manage to resolve this ? Mine is doing the same in 2020

I agree. I would be willing to purchase an upgrade for the Turbo Arrow package.
