146 Professional

I agree (obviously) with p919h_lm, seems odd to me that GPS units and FMC units can be hot swapped out like they can be in the 146, F28, etc. but the fuel flow/quantity gauges can't be made the same way? As a fallback, just creating textures where the needle behaves the same way etc but the markings are adjusted to correspond with pounds, and letting us download that and install it ourselves overwriting the metric version would be acceptable.

@saatric Thanks for letting us know. We believe we may have a way to force the text decals to always appear at a higher resolution, regardless of the texture resolution settings. We'll test this internally and if it works we will include this in the next update to the 146. Mark - Just Flight

@Wildcataa5b Thanks for letting us know. It's not something we have seen reported before, and it's not something we have seen during testing, so it may have been a one-off glitch where something hasn't loaded correctly, etc. If it does happen again, please do let us know and if you can, send us a video of the issue occurring. That will be a useful aid for us to visually see what may be causing the issue. Mark - Just Flight

seems v2 improved the pointer interaction.

A little tip: The modified WT CJ4 FMS (modern version) is compatible with the v3 MCDU server and can therefore be operated on a tablet. https://community.justflight.com/topic/3728/code-to-put-the-mcdu-on-external-tablet

I changed the FMS options to Modern then powered up. The ATC choice seems to have me set as VOR flight mode. Seems their is something in the UN-1 or Classic FMS that is causing the issue. While still powered up I switched back to the Classic FMS. ATC choices remained the same -VOR I loaded a saved flight plan from FMS and ATC choices remained the same -VOR. After entering departure runway and arrival information ATC reverted back to IFR choice only. Checked again and it reverted to IFR only after departure information was selected. Hope that helps resolve the problem. Any quick fixes I can apply and still use the Classic FMS choice?

@Genista Our sincere apologies for not responding to this sooner. It must have been missed amongst the increase in forum activity during the initial release of the 146. As you correctly assumed, the engine behaviour during startup in the 146 is currently controlled by MSFS, and we only have very limited (if any) control over the engine behaviour until after the engine has reached ground idle after engine start. To add a TGT peak and to simulate hot-starting would require a custom-built engine model, which is a little outside of the scope of the project as it stands. Improved engine simulation is something we would like to eventually add to all of our aircraft, so this may be something we include at release in one of our future aircraft, and then back-port it to the 146. We do have this feedback logged on our internal bugs/feature request tracker so it is something we will consider during development of our future products. Mark - Just Flight

@Arek5 Thanks for the extra info. We suspect the root cause of the issue is the basic autopilot "PITCH" mode, and it seems like there may be some sort of conflict with the MSFS autopilot modes when the 146 is in an altitude capture state with "PITCH" mode and a lateral navigation mode active. We'll reopen our investigations into this to see if we can get to the bottom of it. Mark - Just Flight

@Huibrecht Thanks for reporting this issue. We'll get that fixed.

Thanks. That solution will create some challenges with some other aircraft that prefer the LOCK system. But I'll check it out until a better solution arrives. Thanks.

No worries @Mark least its confirmed for others! thanks again!

Looks like Navigraph has released AIRAC 2403 Revision 4 which should fix the issues. https://forum.navigraph.com/t/release-notes-msfs-airac-cycle/1755

Full reinstallation did the trick! Thanks, JF team! Very excited to give this new update a run through its paces!

Stores like SimMarket should be releasing it tomorrow and the Marketplace next week.

Mark, thank you for the reply and confirmation!

@CaptKornDog Thanks. We've logged this one on our internal bugs tracker too. Mark - Just Flight

Thanks for the response Mark. Hopefully this is something we will see in the future. Many thanks.

We haven't made any changes to the cockpit textures with the V2 update to the 146 Professional, but I have passed on your feedback to our texture artist for them to investigate. Mark - Just Flight
