    Clear, thank you for explanation. Next time I will try a less windy ramp to verify.

    @SadBucket I think the option (and I'm a great believer in options!) to simply remove by tablet is great for those that maybe think they have a ground crew for doing those things. That actually brings up something I don't know: do biz jet pilots remove the covers and things? How deep a preflight do they do? I had a buddy who flew in east Africa for the Red Cross for years and he told me about the flying but never once mentioned doing a preflight. I drove school bus for 30 years and my stories never mention the 10 minutes doing the pretrip inspection that we all had to do every morning. @Black-Square I guess I'm missing something when setting the park brake - I'll try that ASAP. edit: Got it!! A small possible wrinkle would be having to be within a certain radius of a removable element; it would lend more credence to walking around doing the preflight. Why be able to reach 20' to remove a cover? Okay, we can't jump up on the wing (can we?!) to remove the intake covers so there has to be a compromise. Have a great day. Bob

    Hello, nice aircraft have been modelled, they're a pleasure to fly. I'm unable to find info from manuals, if following is expected behaviour: Altitude hold cannot be engaged with ALT mode preselected, at preset altitude, even on a properly trimmed a/c. Instead, attitude mode has to be engaged, beforehand. Video reference 1: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2688064207 ATT mode is used around 2:45 mark. There is porpoising/hunting in some performance conditions. Video ref 2: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2688064200 Video ref 3: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2686403662 I've read the FAQ's part about GPS packages. I don't have axis controls for the AP. This behaviour seems to exist on both v0.1.2 Dukes on FS24 SU4

    Hi everyone. Ive built a full size king air cockpit. Ive done a few 737s in the past. Mainly FDS parts and desert air spares cockpit parts from the Mojave desert. Big missions to complete. This little beast has 3 x 75 inch tvs and the interior looks really great. Just starting to program switches etc with mobiflight, realsim gear and msfs 2020. The master caution/warning lvars (im assuming i need lvars) have me stumped. I.cant get my relay to fire up or even a single led to flash. Im obviously doing things wrong and dont know the right lvars etc. I have used fsuipc log, and mobiflight "get lvars from sim button thingy" but still struggling. The 737s i buit used project magenta and interfaceIT boards, so it was cheating a bit. Lol. Lvars seem scary at the moment. Could anyone give me a point in the right direction for the outputs. Thanks you guys!

    Yesterday I flew the TBM 850 using the GNS530 avionics. On the first three legs, the aircraft was banking very slowly, despite Half Bank and Soft Ride both being OFF. On the final leg, the autopilot was unable to capture NAV at all. Has anyone experienced this, or does anyone have an idea what could be causing it?

    @Black-Square The more I scroll through fs forums, the more glad I am that I went into flying planes over developing simulated ones...

    Some of the central components of this sim are actually out of the cockpit of the Baron that I flew. [image: 47f92613-787e-412b-a778-70911a36a087.jpg]

    Many thanks for the reply. Apologies, I should have included the fact I’m on Xbox. So no option to interact with all those lovely variables accessible to PC users. It varies between addons which status lights work on the Turtle Beach “SIP”. All lights work for many a/c. It’s a fantastic feature for those of us on Xbox, for instance when the landing gear is in motion the corresponding light illuminates yellow, turning green when down and locked. The Master Caution and warning lights always strike me as odd as not working in the Black Square modules. Although it’s all a black art to me - I’m sure there is a very sensible reason! I’ve played flight sims on PC for 20+ years, but am largely content on Xbox for a variety of reasons so really want to remain on the Wonder Box. It’s just a shame that some basic game features are only available via third party software. Another minor source of frustration is the lack of mappings to standard key binds in many cases. The altitude pre-selection in the Starship being a good example. Similarly in the JF146, there is no way for Xbox users to map the “arm altitude” button to a keyboard/controller button. Regards.

    I haven't tried that yet. I did a flight today that worked OK so I'm going to cross my fingers and hope it was a one-time glitch! Thanks for the reply, you make great aircraft

    Oh OK, thanks. Would be much better if you could assign unique registrations to each livery (as you say, the UI definitely gives this impression). Odd, because before you change the number to one of your choice, all the original reg numbers are different livery to livery (from memory). Cheers.

    I started up my sim to see if I could find out what went wrong and the whole thing was suddenly working as it should! Creepy. I will try to remember your gem - "can be fixed usually by just toggling the hot-swapping radio configuration." Cheers

    I appreciate you having a look. Let me see about making a video. FYI, this is in relation to MSFS, not 2024.

    @KAPA-Flyer Yeah, I have to agree with you, too. When I bought those products, I wasn't looking for the Black Square level but for the "6 pack" "analog" look.

    @DocZ That's exactly what I've done with all my Black Square planes, no issues here.
