F28 Professional

Yes, unfortunately, it's not possible to update the nav database on Xbox . We are looking into some methods to allow Xbox users with a Navigraph subscription to update their navdata in our aircraft. We're not able to provide a timeframe for when that may be available at this stage, but we will be sure to keep everyone updated once we have more to share. Mark - Just Flight

Bump again..

I'm also curious how some buttons are programmed; for instance, the vertical speed preselector button. I've been able to identify these 4 LVARs but am unsure how (or what order) to bind them for the button push. LVAR:AP_PRESELECT_4_BUTTON LVAR:AP_PRESELECT_4_BUTTON_IsDown LVAR:AP_PRESELECT_4_BUTTON_LeftLeaveToRun LVAR:AP_PRESELECT_4_BUTTON_MinReleaseTime Do I just send a "1" to LVAR:AP_PRESELECT_4_BUTTON to enable it; and the other LVARs associated are animation related, or something else?

@Astrogator good find, but does not apply in my case.

Using FSUIPC, I also don't have them in the LVAR list there. But I can define them manually and set them without issues. same goes for the nac/GPS toggle when using the UNS, and the master warning button.

@Chico111 Just Flight Support should be able to help with something like this. https://community.justflight.com/topic/2/product-support

Then why was F28 V1 coded to level off at the selected altitude if it is just an alert system...

I've just looked into this, and all we do on our side is tell GSX the location of the water service door on the aircraft. That all looks to be set up correctly in the GSX profiles we include with the F28 Professional. If you haven't already, we would recommend reporting this directly to FSDT as something for them to investigate further. Mark - Just Flight

Unfortunately, this is an issue within MSFS 2024 that other developers are also reporting issues with. This has been reported to Asobo/MS, and we are actively looking for a workaround. If we are able to find a workaround for this, it will be included in an upcoming update to the F28 Professional in MSFS 2024, or hopefully, it may be fixed in an upcoming MSFS Sim Update.

@Highlander_821 said in ILS not working: I've just done two flights and the ILS system is not working with the autopilot. Using the GNS430. I have the ILS freq tuned and the course selected. Once I change the CDI setting on the 430 to VOR/LOC and enable beam and glide on the AP, the HSI bar just moves right through the final course, but the AP does not turn to intercept. Tried this with ILS 27R at KPHL and ILS 30L at KSTL. Same results. Same here: To reproduce: 1.create flight plan in GNS430 (any dest ident with ILS); 2.choose and load ILS approach proc in GNS430; 3.set ILS freqency and course; 4.fly to destination airport (GPS); 6.Flight director in VOR/LOC mode, BEAM mode on; 5.before faf, GNS430 automatically switches to VLOC as it should; problem is here: 6.two LOC/VOR indicators are green but selected course not intercepted; workaround found: after GNS430 automatically switches to VLOC, delete flightplan in GNS430, press CDI to gps mode and again to VLOC mode. After that course immediately intercepted .

@rodtod423 Have you tried contacting Just Flight support? They should be able to help with this kind of thing. https://community.justflight.com/topic/2/product-support

It is really hard to admit for me, but aerosoft have done a smart thing in the CRJ V2, which is really premium: Below 5000ft (I think), you dial 100s, 5000-10000ft you dial in 500ft increments and above in 1000s. Really works well, speeds things up, while not relying on the hassle of knob acceleration (always going past the value when making larger changes) or no acceleration (dialing larger changes takes forever). Maybe this could be an approach as well.
