Thought I'd put in my vote for this as I have the 737 panel from WinWing and being able to use it with SpadNext so I can use not only on 737, but the CJ4 and C90 adds so much to it that not being able to use it is a big drag. Heck, I'd even pay for the addon. :)

@SebAvi Yep that's the current plan.

Very good, thank you for your quick answer. I was just wondering if I had missed an update :)

In v0.1.3 of the Vulcan, we upgraded the GPS from the Aera GPS to the G3X Touch for better MSFS 2024 compatibility. Therefore, the functionality of the GPS has changed slightly as the G3X Touch is a more advanced GPS. To cover each of your points:

If a flight plan is created in the MSFS 2024 EFB, the "Send Route To Avionics" button must be pressed in order to import the route into the GPS. If a flight plan is created manually within the GPS, the flight plan must have a departure airport and a destination airport set in order for the autopilot to couple with the GPS (if a flight plan is created in the GPS with only a departure airport and waypoints, the route will be displayed, but the autopilot coupling will not function with an incomplete flight plan). In order for the autopilot to track the GPS flight plan, the ENGAGE knob must be pulled (with IN indicator showing white), the TRACK knob must be pulled, and REMOTE must be selected on the navigational selector.

This is a known side effect of a workaround we have put in place to improve touchscreen display interactions in our aircraft in MSFS 2024. If the workaround is no longer required after future MSFS 2024 Sim Updates, we will update the logic so that control cannot be clicked through touchscreen displays. The GPS can also be moved on top of the glareshield by clicking the upper bezel.

As the G3X Touch is a default GPS unit in MSFS 2024 (developed by Working Title), we sadly don't have any control over the scaling of the GPS. To circumvent this, we have added custom cameras for each GPS position which moves the camera closer to the GPS display. These cameras can be toggled either via the MSFS Camera menu, or via a clickspot on the right bezel of the GPS.

Hi everyone, on the subject of LVARs and searching for them - I've been having some trouble understanding/identifying the LVARs associated with the new altitude preselect panel (and alerter/capture). Trying to map the behavior to some buttons on my Winwing FCU. Anyone successfully cracked the code on that system by chance?

Thanks.

Not really a problem, but I do wonder who needs temperatures with precision down to 0.01 degrees to do their performance calculations :-D
I suggest the pilot remembers to visits the airport toilet before departure if 0.01 deg makes the difference.

I want to say that I just got FS Traffic today and I had the same problem as my system is set in Swedish. Thanks to the advice above I managed to get it working by only changing the decimal symbol!

Thanks for reporting this. I've logged this on our internal bug tracker and we'll get this investigated ahead of the next update to the Hawk.

Thanks Mark. So, Altitude Hold is not selected when the autopilot is engaged. Though, I noticed that it's then difficult to adjust the pitch of the aircraft manually to keep the same altitude, withjout disengaging the autopilot. Or I have to play with the trim instead of the yoke. But I need probably some more practice. When I flew this airplane in the real life, I never switched on the autopilot because I did'nt have any trust in it !!

Thank you Mark!
