    @JakeBunny The water rudders have a huge and noticeable effect for me, as others have stated elsewhere, probably too much, actually. What is the steering tiller? Is this any different from the rudder input on the variants with conventional gear? How is the steering "operating" when the aircraft is in the water? Just looking for clarifications.

    @SadBucket Hello, Thanks for your comments. You are right, navigating around the functionalities is really cumbersome for real world operations. ... I was just about experimenting the auxiliary functionalities of this unit, apart from following the magenta line.

    Hi, thank you for your reply - it is really interesting how MSFS provides the data differently. I found a way to get the name easily, cause I am also using Simhaptic with a Buttkicker - and this software is more...let's say intelligent than the Moza Cockpit. This detects automatically which aircraft gets loaded (on MSFS, X-Plane or DCS) and it shows the internal name. For your aircrafts those are: bksq-aircraft-baron bksq-aircraft-baronpress bksq-aircraft-baronturbo bksq-aircraft-turbineduke And those names work as well for the Moza presets.

    @jmarkows Yes there is indeed a keybind that is called "Flight Director Pitch Sync" I need to activate "Control AP Pitch with Hardware" in the tablet and bind this function to a key - and BAM it works! Thank you guys! @SadBucket Maybe also interesting for you - it is more or less similar to your approach but only with one of the keybinds

    Yep - it's real taxiways. First pic is real taxiways on and 2nd pic is with it off. I've noticed this at a few other airports too - just kept forgetting to report it. Hopefully it's a code fix and not just one off fixes. It's always the sign that's wrong. [image: 93b6eb0d-5023-4f78-b50b-54601c0868ec.jpg] [image: a004a75d-9ee3-47e0-a88c-8dd65ea043c5.jpg]

    Thanks for the great offer, but it's a little too far away... I'm from Bavaria/Germany. And my wife is terrified of spiders So maybe in the next life - but who knows....

    @JakeBunny Thank you so much. My family and friends will tell you that I have been absolutely giving my entire life to these aircraft over the last few years, but messages like that make it worth the while

    Another vote for the Beechcraft 1900D here. I've missed this plane since my P3D times 6 years ago.

    Sorry to hear that. To the best of my knowledge, I haven't done anything different in the configuration files between any of my aircraft in this respect. I know this feature has been inconsistent in MSFS 2024 since release, however. Perhaps someone else will chime in with some advice. You could also try Just Flight Support. Since they deal with a lot more aircraft than just my own, they might have seen this before.

    I'll fly in any weather, as long as I don't deliberately take off in it and instead let it surprise me at my destination.

    Well I was hoping there might be a break in which I could bring this up again, but the Caravan seems to have produced an absolute flurry of activity. Maybe in a week or two

    Hey Nick @Black-Square. Question from the Dev... can you ask the dev at JustFlight to post a specific example of the EXACT URL that is used to trigger a failure? The docs list all the failure variables, but never seem to mention the specific elements of the URL, or the port, etc I was under the impression it was straight HTTP calls directly to a custom listener....he's literally listing URL paramters in the docs. [1:00 PM]Saturday, March 14, 2026 1:00 PM if you can post a message asking him to verify what I listed above, and whether this can be triggered by a vanilla HTTP request, outside of SimConnect, that would give me everything I need.

    I think A DC3 with Piston and PT6 engine options would be insane too. Imagine a Boris P&W Supercharged Wasp engine...

    @Outermarker Oh that's really cool! I have a wishlist thread on the main msfs forums asking for a native G500/600 architecture. The G1000 is cool and all, but it's limited to just a handful of airframes - can't just drop it into any plane and be realistic. Same with the G3X - it is certified for the Bo, but wouldn't work for the Baron because it's not multi-engine compatible. That's why the G500/600 would be perfect. You could drop it into just about anything and connect it to a GNS or GTN, and still have a lot of the familiar Garmin functionality of the G1000/G3X.

    As long as it's an option - and not forced upon the user -, it's fine. I personally don't want anything turning red, blue, etc.

    @SadBucket you don’t necessarily need to rummage between different pages. Sky4Sim has already implemented a plugin that integrates its tablet into the MSFS tablet - for instance. If you want to use only Sky4Sim’s features, you can: just select the Sky4Sim icon and the S4S interface will appear and can navigate only the features provided by S4S — the only difference is that it shows up inside the MSFS tablet. It definitely improves immersion, especially in aircraft that already have the “3D MSFS tablet” available.

    @jmarkows said in Mapping BKSQ switches not shown in MSFS2024 to Honeycomb Alpha/Bravo: Things like LVars, HVars, etc. need external programs to map them to controllers, the base sim can't do it. Mobiflight is a free tool that does that and has quite the community sourced library of variables already set up. I've never used it to speak to how easy it is to use. There is also FSUIPC, which I use, but has a rather dated UI and it's very manual. There's also SPAD.Next and Axes and Ohs, all of which are payware and come recommended by their users. Thanks - I really appreciate the response. I did some more digging today and have now downloaded SPAD.Next (14 day trial) and found some good examples online.

    @SadBucket I think you can fix that issue by changing a few lines in the right config files within the livery structure. I did this with some F28 and other liveries quite a while back, before the F28 was updated to native. I'm sorry I don't have time to dig through and look for it right now, but I'm pretty sure I found the method in this thread: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/unofficial-guide-to-conversion-of-liveries-for-msfs-2024-2020-legacy-aircraft-only/677083/34

    Checked it out - found the anchor, found the clipboard too, thank you! I will thoroughly testfly this aircraft, probably somewhere in BC, Canada (as of today ). The manual suggests it's a pretty detailed aircraft which I didn't expect.
