RJ Professional

There aren't any plans in place at the moment to revisit the engine spool times in the RJ. From the data we have and the input from the pilots on our testing team, the fast engine spool is accurate to the real aircraft. As you say, they are smaller engines, so there isn't as much mass to rotate as there would be in larger engines. Mark - Just Flight

Aha, that makes sense since I was tinkering with the air bleed switches to do the air + cross-bleed start. Thanks!

Thanks, Mark, much appreciated. I definitely was on external power pretty quickly after the flight started, so I'll assume it's the second behavior you describe. I'll report here if I notice this happening again post 0.1.4. Fantastic plane, always at the top of my list!

@galeair Just as an FYI if you'd like to include the LF 507 data in your spreadsheet, I have included them in my checklist (it's not currently live at time of posting but should be within 12hrs). BAe 146-RJ70/RJ85/RJ100 Normal Checklist

Hello, I have the same issue. There is no way to replicate it other than flying, flying and flying... It happens not often. Accodring to my volanta stats I have done 36 flights this year and it happened two times. "The cabin altitude seems to climb with the aircraft (no pressurisation). Controlling the pressurisation manually works absolutely fine." That descibes its perfectly.

I`m also getting TCAS warnings on every flight. I do my flights on vatsim. The TCAS works fine with vatsim traffic. But it also produces alerts randomly without any closeby traffic.

The terrain radar is the only thing that I find is really missing in this aircraft. I really hope it will be included in a future update. Is the terrain radar on the RJ displayed on the navigation display or the weather radar display when implemented?

On my system, the TCAS warning (and display) appears to be triggered by speeding-up the SimRate. No issue when the rate is x1 but as soon as X2 or higher is enabled, the TCAS alert sounds...

Thanks for your reply, I'll try and create another flight and report back

That solved the problem for me as well, after reading the FAQ mark supplied I realised I sometimes forgot to turn on the Strobes.

Hello Mark, thank you... I have been trying to read up a little more on the autothrottle since my initial post. The consensus seems to be (plus your noting that retard mode is simulated during autoland) that if I do not autoland, I should also disengage autothrottle before landing. In any case I will try to give autoland another shot today in FS2020 and record a video if necessary. Jose

We do have an MSFS 2024 native update for the RJ in development (which also includes an MSFS 2020 update), and we will share more information about that soon. However, we are still following the plan listed our in our previous reply, where our current development resources are being spent on updating all of our MSFS 2020 products to be MSFS 2024 native products. These updates will largely bring across the products in an "as is" state, although in most cases with new features, bug fixes and improvements. The current status of our MSFS 2024 products can be found at the following link: https://www.justflight.com/articles/just-flight-addons-msfs-2024-compatibility-status Once those updates are complete, we will be able to devote more development time back to the RJ for future updates/upgrades.

It is possible to load the aircraft in the air by clicking any area of the World Map in the MSFS Main Menu and then selecting "Set as Departure" or "Fly Now", however, in-air starts aren't something we actively support so there aircraft may exhibit some unexpected behaviour when loading in via this method. The way we would recommend practicing landings is to load a flight on a runway, and then takeoff and perform a short circuit of the airport. That's the way pilots would practice in the real world, and also allows for practicing takeoff, initial climb, ILS intercept, etc. Mark - Just Flight

Officially, we don't support our products on the MSFS Sim Update Betas, as their name suggests, they are a Beta build, and there likely will be many bug fixes and changes ahead of the final public release. Although the APU shutting down isn't something we can replicate on SU2, there are a variety of backend improvements included in the upcoming "MSFS 2024 Native" version of the RJ Professional that we think could resolve this.

The only cause I recall of the Flight Director indicating too great a pitch during takeoff/climb was a throttle axis spiking issue. That's covered in my previous response in this thread, along with a potential workaround for that. Another way of working out if it is throttle axis spiking related, will be to temporarily unplug any external hardware with a throttle axis assignment from your PC (joystick, throttle quadrant, etc.) and then load a flight in the RJ on the runway. With a flight loaded on the runway, enter a flight plan in the FMS takeoff as normal. If the flight director bars indicate 8 degrees pitch up for the takeoff roll, and then indicate the pitch required to maintain V2+10 during the initial climb, then they are behaving as expected and the cause will likely be related to a spiking issue in the throttle axis. If the issue persists with no throttle axis assignment in play, the could I kindly ask you to raise a ticket with Just Flight Support via the following link: https://www.justflight.com/support In the support ticket, if you could supply a video of the behaviour, then our support team will have the best chance of either reproducing that behaviour and be in the best position to assist with further troubleshooting.

Same here, any fix?

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.

@Mark Hello, thanks for the quick reply. I actually only had the landing lights set to taxi. After I turned the landing lights on properly, the copilot made the announcements. I also deleted some control commands on my Bravo throttle. I probably had some assignments on it after SU2. So far, the flight director has stayed on after takeoff from the ground. I'll test it further in the next few days. Thanks for the tip.

The onscreen keyboard should appear whenever an editable field is pressed on the EFB > Aircraft page. When the on-screen keyboard appears, data can also be inputted into the selected field via an external keyboard. If a field is greyed out/unavailable (typically occurs after chocks are removed and the parking brake is released), the on-screen keyboard will not appear in this instance. Hope that helps.
