    Hi folks, I notice on the APU panel in FS2024, when you shut the APU down, the RPM and TGT both spool down slowly. Of course, I don't have access to real a/c as JF do (and Ryan, who is very helpful on these forums), but my understanding, purely from footage I've watched, is that the APU doesn't really spool down so much as shut straight off, and both gauges simply flick straight to nought (always struck me as odd on the 146, that). This is certainly the case (and simulated) in the JF 146. Is this different on the RJ IRL? Or is this a bit of a bug/sim-ism?

    @Black-Square said in CDU and MFD buttons bug when assigned in axis and ohs: What events are you using for those interactions in Axis and Ohs? I assume the ones at the end of my manual in the Inputs/Outputs section? Well.. not really. I was looking to map the letter CDU buttons (1ABC, 2DEF etc) but I don't see those in the manual, only the line select so I downloaded a profile where the letters supposedly worked on a winwing MCDU but I don't have one so I tried re-mapping them to the virpil push buttons. For example, the profile uses H:CDU_3Button_1 for 3DEF button but when I remap it, nothing happens when pressed.

    Managed to get on before leaving. Did a proper reinstall still the same. Convinced it was something in my settings. Had a look around and not one of my switches wasn’t in the same position as usual. Flicked that to the normal position and bingo. It was mapped to ‘toggle engine 1 fuel value‘. Removed the binding so won’t happen again. Once again thanks for your reply. It made me do more digging.

    I think it must be the navdata for that particular airport. Possibly the third party addon messing with it. When I tried a different airport (KSRQ) it worked just fine. The SID from KATL also worked just fine in both flight plans.

    Yeah would be very nice to get the amazing 146 into 2024 for sure ... I fear that the F70/100 will be ahead of getting the 146 moved up. Hopefully some news soon

    I was having similar issues, but I think I fixed them with settings. I already had aircraft traffic quantity and parked a/c quantitiy to none, but there's another setting called "characters quantity". I have no idea what that is, but turning that off too seemed to fix it. Now I load into a major airport and there's traffic all over. With "characters quantity" on I was getting either no traffic, or like a single plane. Just posting this in case it helps anyone else out.

    Typically, behaviour such as this will be related to a control assignment conflict. An easy way to confirm if this is the case is to unplug all your external hardware (Joystick, Throttle Quadrant, etc.) and then take off using only the mouse and keyboard. If the landing gear/hydraulic issue no longer exists with just the keyboard and mouse plugged in, then it is likely a control conflict with your other hardware. If this behaviour persists, could I kindly ask you to raise a ticket with Just Flight Support via the following link and one of our support team will be able to assist with further troubleshooting: https://www.justflight.com/support Mark - Just Flight

    @Delta558 No worries, have fun! I investigated it a bit further in the meantime. The trim tab seems to have a lot more impact on the overall lift coefficient than the elevator itself - which is odd to me. I tried to map my joystick to the trim axis and the trim to the elevator axis and that actually gave me realistic control over it in slow flight (looks very funny to steer that thing but only the trim tab moves). Can you try landing that thing without trimming it, because that seems to be the core of my problem - i.e. without trim, no slow flight possible because elevator alone cannot create enough lift with that low power setting.

  • Arrow III Dimmable Cockpit Lighting

    The default cockpit lighting has always been dimmable, that's not what the mod is about. It introduces a new luminosity mask that overrides the default. No reason this mod wouldn't work after an update. If there is an incompatibility, the mod creator would just need to update the mod. JustFlight will for sure not simply incorporate other's work. I myself created the "lights mod" that changes the external lights and also will keep it updated to have it compatible with the most recent version of the addon. You might want to have a look at it: https://flightsim.to/file/10201/piper-pa28r-arrow-iii-justflight-lights-mod EDIT: I just tested the panel lights mod, unfortunately it breaks my exterior lights mod. So currently it's either the one or the other to be used

    Worked for me as well. Actually, there is only one line of code that messes up the compass. Fix it and the compass works. ``` <Code>(L:UPPER_compass, number) 10 *</Code> to be replaced with <Code>(L:UPPER_compass, number)</Code> The only difference that I can see is the [ **10*** ]. If that were to be deleted, you should be good. I do suggest that you back up the original file though, just in case.

    Aah, got it. For anyone else looking for this answer, just download and run the installer for the new version, it will update the existing plane. No need to uninstall. G.

    @copper That works at some airports but not at others. I think it only works if there's refuelling trigger set for the fuelling station.

    @Perrin Let us know if this remains a problem, I have heard one other user who had the same issue. I don't think it's the aircraft itself that's causing it as MSFS has been a bit odd since the last major update, but if you find a solution it would be good to let us know

    @DC1973 Hi again and thanks again for the quick response. Unfortunately the coordinates displayed on the F-15E aren't even close to actual coordinates. The readout on the ground at KNQX at start up was 0.4289 and -1.4260. I converted those to degrees and minutes, which are N0 25' 44.04" W1 25' 33.60". The coordinates for Key West Naval Air Station per Jeppeson are N19 54.4 and W 075 12.4 I've been flying FSX for years and the coordinates for any aircraft I flew were spot on real world coordinates. It appears that the MSFS coordinates are off by a lot--or else I am! EDIT: Sorry, I had the F-15E position readout at Key West correct and the conversion to N 0 25' 4404" W 1 25' 33.60" correct but I erroneously showed the Guantanamo NAS coordinates instead of the Key West NAS correct coordinates of N24 34.5 W081 41.2 Upon arrival at MUGM the F-15E position readout was 0.3475, -1 3127, which converts to N 0 20' 50.99" W1 18' 45.72. Per Jeppesen the correct coordinates for Gitmo NAS are N19 54.4' W075 12.4'. Sorry for the confusion.

    @anthony96 It's in the works for this summer, but I'm awaiting proper supersonic support from MSFS as it's important for the autopilot to work at those airspeeds ( it doesn't very well at the moment beyond supersonic ).

    @Stwutter The bind you are looking for is "Spoiler". Best set up with an axis instead of a buttons, so "Spoiler Axis" is best. You have more control that way.
