    Since MSFS2024 SU4 I have been unable to correctly load the aircraft weights into the aircraft EFB. I load the Simbrief flight plan into the system on the MSFS world map page, before loading the aircraft at a gate at the departure airfield. Then I load the Simbrief plan on the OFP page of the aircraft EFB and check the output. Then on the Aircraft page of the EFB I load the fuel and board the passengers. Once this is complete I check the weights, and the important weights are now incorrect. The fuel weight and the aircraft empty weight is usually correct but the ZFW and total aircraft weights are completely incorrect. I have re downloaded the aircraft but the situation is unchanged. Neither the RJ or the 146 will load the correct weights. As an example I tried loading the 146-300 with no passengers and the Simbrief plan and the ouput in the aircraft EFB shows: TOW 37566 kgs ZFW 28333 kgs FUEL WEIGHT 9460 EFB AIRCRAFT PAGE AFTER LOADING GROSS WEIGHT 35887 kgs ZFW 26427 kgs FUEL WEIGHT 9460 kgs If I load passengers and baggage then the difference between the Simbrief and EFB Aircraft weights is even more pronounced. The payloads do not seem to be loaded at all. I didn't have any problems before SU4. Am I doing something wrong?

    Unfortunately, as you say, I believe this will be a limitation of using Chaseplane with some of our products. The Vulcan, and a few of our other products, rely on the core MSFS camera system to move the user to certain locations in and around the aircraft. As Chaseplane overrides the default camera system, the cameras that we trigger in the code no longer exist, so the camera will not change. It's something we have logged on our internal trackers for further investigation, and to see if there is any form of a workaround we can find for Chaseplane users. In the meantime with the Vulcan, it should be possible to create custom Chaseplane cameras inside the AEO/Navigrator compartment and then trigger those via the Chaseplane interface.

    Yeah that makes sense, seems like woth an aircraft that could have that many variations you would overrun the budget really quick if you started trying to represent every little thing it could have. Thank you for all the info as well, very educational

    Hi. One more thing, please, please, please. Could I request you add pause at TOD to the RJ, 146, F28, and upcoming products. Thanks!

    Re: Feature Requests Can we please get an updated FS Traffic Manual that shows SETUP Global settings for the latest version of MSFS 2024 instead of ones that no longer exist (e.g. "TRAFFIC AIRPORT QUALITY"). Thanks.

    Hi, I take off, fly to my destination for about 10 minutes then slowly i start to lose control and the aircraft wants to roll to the left. Gradually gets worse and worse until i end up crashing. Suspects its hydraulics or something. Really weird, it literally starts doing it over sheffield, having taking off from RAF Waddington. Any ideas anybody? Cheers Ian

    Stand down everyone. I figured it out. Well, not so much 'figured' but stumbled upon it. You know the saying 'If you throw enough s**t at the wall, some of it will stick'? That the method I used.

    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.

    @Smykel Ensure you set the Flight Model option to 'MODERN' in the MSFS Options (OPTIONS > GENERAL > FLIGHT MODEL). That will sort this issue for you.

    Thanks much for the quick feedback. I've since discovered your thread on the MSFS forums as well. Thanks for having the open dialog with the player community. I did purposely wait until 1.0.1 prior to purchasing and these efforts have turned the tide on this aircraft. Take pride in knowing the sonic boom scares me every time.

    @DC1973 @DC1973 said in F-15 persistence.cfg file?: @Hotzoner Hi, there doesn't seem to be a way at present. What you could do is create several different flightmodel.cfg files and enter the required weights into each, depending on what load-out you want, and then just swap the files for whichever one you need each time you fly. That's about the only way I can think of at the moment, hope this helps Understood, I will give that a try. Thanks for the suggestion
