    @Black-Square said in Autopilot with HSI free & Pitot block: @topfen said in Autopilot with HSI free & Pitot block: When the HSI gyro is free and the heading is slewed, the autopilot will follow the actual heading in HDG mode instead of the heading bug on the Gyro. I just happened to be in the right neighborhood to spot a flag in the SDK I had never seen before to enable this behavior. I guess I didn't see it in the past, because it had no default listed, so I would not have assumed that the default behavior was for the autopilot to be driven by the magnetic compass... Glad that's working now! Nobody is probably happier at these little features than I am, haha. Thanks for putting this in my mind recently. It will be rolled out to the entire fleet after SU4. I'm very happy to see that you're coming back to this! Meanwhile I had some fun watching the magnetic compass swing left and right while toggling the windshield heat on and off again.

    This happens to me as well, but only when the engines are not warmed up and if I lean the mixture too much during taxi. This is completely a normal behavior, and a properly maintained Baron does the same. After runup make sure that the engines are warmed up and push the mixture full forward and then do your Idle check.

    Thanks for confirming, Nick. I had a heck of a time figuring out why Starship wouldn’t track the offset in VOR mode until I realized it doesn’t work that way.

    I'm having trouble with shutdown using this exact configuration (GTN750); I'll test it with a different configuration.

    I was wrong about the taxi route in Chicago - that wasn't Real Taxiways causing that

    @Black-Square Actually the time slider does kind of make sense with the rolling 24 hour live weather IMO. Slider all the way to the right is current time, all the way to the left is 24 hours ago. So left is as far in the past you can go weatherwise. Personally like flying with live weather but being able to select the time of day with the weather acting appropriately for that time, especially for dawn and sunset. If you don’t usually use that feature I see how it doesn’t make any sense, I almost always fly with live weather at a different time

    Still no tail numbers in 2024, and no hours saved, in the SU4 Beta

    I did find the tablet option for the tail numbers, thanks. And best I can tell, it looks like some stuff does save, I'll have to test further. I'm wondering if there's a workaround using a backup state.cfg file, pasted back in after the sim starts but before choosing the aircraft. Probably won't work, but maybe worth a try.

    The problem I am having is on the PC not xBox. I did try it on the xBox tonight and it was there. Same problem as last time I rented it. Main cockpit view was the ceiling. Could not get any other cockpit views with Ctrl-1-Ctrl-0. No I don't use Shift for views. Could not get any views I created to save.

    Just my 2cents on this. I know some other developers have done this like FlightFX with the HondaJet and the VisionJet. The Piper Turbo Arrow also have Navigraph and Simbreif in the tablet which was suprising. I know other do as well in smaller GA aircraft and as someone who is on Xbox this is amazing as we do not have the add ons that PC users to do allow for a pop out or things like that. The other thing to consider would be developing a stand alone pop-out for Navigraph/Simbreif for the marketplace. Similar to what PMS50 just did with the GTN750. Xbox users can now use a pop-out GTN750 like the PC users do. One of the reasons I love this so much is that it now, for the most part, allows every aircraft to have Navigraph and Simbrief intigration through the pop-out unit. Just food for thought.

    Speaking of panel retrofits - I did just find out that there is essentially a G1000 retrofit for the Commander 690B, if you did want to offer a glass cockpit option for it. Info here: [image: 452e6ec3-ada0-48a7-9fc0-5022595770e3.jpg] https://www.aopa.org/news-and-media/all-news/2014/february/pilot/t-twin-commander

    Ok, the last 5 times I tried it, it wouldn't work. This time I started flight sim to get you that screen shot and it fired right up... I dunno...

    No option for G430 to be the primary GPS for most Blacksquare aircraft in the avionics selection.

    @aeronautorbust said in No option for G430 to be the primary GPS for most Blacksquare aircraft in the avionics selection.: Is there a reason why the G430 STILL isn't an option to be used as the primary GPS? Indeed, there is! As you might have noticed, both the TDS and PMS50 GTN 650's can also operate as the primary source of navigation when no primary GPS is selected. I asked Working Title to provide the same functionality a long time ago, and I was politely told that this would be too difficult. I then proceeded to modify their code to create my own solution for this, and I can confirm that it was very dirty, difficult, and inconsistent. Just as recently as Flight Sim Expo this year (July), I spoke with a WT representative about this again, and referred to it as my most wanted feature. Perhaps the day will still come for this functionality, but in the meantime, we will both be patiently waiting.

    Almost everything works fine now in MSFS2024 except for the sound. The sound is almost inaudible, unfortunately...

    KFC150 attitude hold mode?

    Ok, kind of have a solution for this - When in alt mode if you want to put it back into attitude mode press the VS eng button on the KAS 297B TWICE - first time engages VS mode 2nd time turns it off and leaves you in attitude mode - then you can use the up/down switch on the KFC150 to adjust your pitch attitude. Note that it seems like sometimes you also have to pull out the knob on the KAS 297B to put it into VS mode - still working on figuring out when that is/isn't required.

    I don't think Roy's Cafe is open. It sounds like they have tried to reopen and restore the place, but a lack of potable water and other resources have made it difficult. The area has been used in a lot of movies and other media. Harrison Ford landed a plane there as well. And yes, I took some artistic liberties to the second screen, but mainly the sky.
