    Guys neofly is pretty good already. Moreover, two good career addons are already in the pipeline with one being in early access - frontierwings (for dedicated bushflying) and another one cant remember the name, for underworld activities. Additionally, maybe sometime in the future BS can roll out their own career addon

    I just landed using an ILS approach and the approach button worked just fine. I have the GTN750 installed. Which avionics you have installed?

    AVNX has recently announced that they are working on an Air Manager panel for Black Square's Bonanza. I imagine that a Baron will follow. Which makes my idea of making one unnecessary. I am glad and disappointed. It would have been fun, but I could not approach AVNX's quality.

    @AvApollo If you search on this forum, you can probably find the several other times this has come up. Unfortunately, given that we cannot change the PID constants of the autopilot live, I had to tune the system to be "tighter" than usual to manage the barely supported canard aerodynamics at very high altitudes. If it's any less tight, the autopilot will go into catastrophic oscillations at its maximum altitude.

    @Pondimus Came here looking exactly for this - unfortunately the avatar from 2024 is a bit buggy, it keeps twitching and breaking immersion. I wish there was a way to totally disable 2024's avatar and use the Just Flight Co-Pilot model from 2020 in 2024 instead.

    @Black-Square Sorry about that one - for some reason I thought real taxiways changed the pavement markers too. Here's another one today: CYHZ Runway 32/14 - all of the signs say 23-05. Runway 23-05 is correctly marked. Let me know if you want me to continue to tag you on these - or just post and let you get to them when you can.

    Assuming the updated manual will be released before the next update, Just Flight normally takes a bit before the downloads are updated themselves.

    I've been going backwards through your catalog . I have all the native 2024 aircraft now. It seems that the Storm switch and headphone filter was never implemented although you had plans to - any chance that's coming? Also noticed a number of lod issues in VR here with the Crystal super as well in case you are working on an update.

    @hangar_101 said in Comm Power Circuits in Black Square Products: if I switch to COM3 RECEIVE ON / COM3 MIC ON and manually turn COM1 RECEIVE OFF, after a few seconds the SI app turns COM1 RECEIVE back on again. Now that I haven't seen. Although in the process of trying to replicate it, I found something interesting. if you turn both comm1 and comm2 receive off in the Starship, SI will show as active (green) only whichever radio is selected as the transmitter. So setting transmit to comm2 causes SI to show COM1's frequency in grey. Looking at COM RECEIVE:1 and COM RECEIVE:2 in Simvar Watcher, sure enough, they're set to 1 if that radio is set to transmit, regardless of whether it's set to receive. So my understanding about COM RECEIVE:1 and COM RECEIVE:2 being different was incorrect; it's the transmit selection that's causing it. But there doesn't seem to be an MSFS function to set transmit to com3? EDIT: Alright I see now, if you send the control PILOT_TRANSMITTER_SET with a value of 2 (0 = com1, 1 = com2, so 2 is presumably com3) then SI briefly shows both com1 and com2 freqs greyed out (which made me happy for a few seconds) before automatically switching com1 receive on (though not com1 transmit). What in the world?

    My God, I’m so anxious for an update from Black Square regarding the upcoming releases, but especially the King Air… I’m really excited for any news about the King Air.

    @Black-Square I've never encountered a problem with anyone's hot-swapping (as far as I know), so I assume most 3rd party devs must be doing it "responsibly," so to speak. In that same discussion, an A2A dev is talking about how many variants they would have to have for their planes if they wanted to accommodate customers' requests without hot-swapping... I don't envy any of you the job of pleasing all of us lol

    Ah, thank you for uploading the video. That's exactly what I needed to see what you were talking about. That is an artifact of MSFS 2024's exposure compensation. You might be familiar with exposure compensation as the bright white skies you experience for a few seconds when looking up from a dark instrument panel. There are settings related to exposure compensation in the simulator's graphics menu, and you might be able to find more online about how to fine tune this feature. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you in the meantime.

    A BlackSquare Twin Otter would be amazing. It would fit right into the BlackSquare portfolio and is something different from the existing aircraft.

    @Black-Square On #2 I meant an accumulator failure.. It was a slip on my part. I had reported this to you a few months ago. I edited my OP to correct my mistake. On #3, when I am demonstrating procedures for OEI, sometimes I can't get the prop to fully feather and I have to dive to get the inop engine RPM well above 1500 rpm and then quickly pull to feather detent. It's never that specific to get the prop to feather in the Baron.

    If I understand what you're looking to do, this would be determined solely by the font you include in your package. You should be able to accomplish almost any effect you're looking for, so long as you're willing to edit the font.

    @Buzz thanks for posting that, the Command 114, 685 and 690B look interesting, especially the 690B. Hoping the King Air is next to release.

    @SchnauzerMan Hello, I am here, always working on my airplanes I don't really know. Just not enough posts to warrant it, I guess. Just Flight manages the forums. I just develop the aircraft. Have you updated your TDS installation lately? Those all sound like issues inherent to the Working Title G3X and TDS GTNxi interconnectivity, not the aircraft specifically. I haven't heard any other reports like this, despite the aircraft being update about a year ago with these new features, and being tested by the TDS developer himself, so hopefully it's just an outdated installation. It would also be helpful to know if you're using MSFS 2020 or 2024, in case we need to provide more information for him to investigate.

    @Rich Hi Rich! I think I have noticed a bug with new installers you're using for the Caravan Pro. On initial install, you can select a custom directory, which I did for v1.0. However, after downloading the updated v1.1 installer from the website just now, here is what happened. Normally, the installers can handle updates themselves without having to uninstall the old version. However, this time, even though it said in the installers UI that is was updating from v1 to v1.1 - it did not respect my original custom directory. It deleted the old v1.0 files, and then installed the new v1.1 into the MSFS 2024 community folder like the legacy installers would. Could it be rectified so that when updating an existing addon with InstallShield, it respects your custom install directory of the existing installed addon? Thank you

    @Buzz It’s not about staring at the plane from the outside, it’s about visual consistency. Since the spinners are part of the pilot's field of view, a static ice effect on a rotating part looks like a glaring oversight. Black Square is known for 'study-level' systems, so the visuals should match that level of detail. As I mentioned, Just Flight has already proven it’s possible to do it right.
