    @CoolGunS But that will affect for all aircraft.. no? the problem is that all other planes behave more or less the same. I mean not so sensitive. Im not a real pilot, so I cant tell if that rudder sensitivity on the plane is as it should, or no, im just comparing how one profile (linear with little DZ), works perfectly for many planes, but for this one, its quite sensitive.

    Basically we have 5 Hvars now. Left short press, left long press, right short press, right long press and both buttons long press. I have assigned them individually to 5 buttons via FSUIPC and that works. However I would like to try to use only two buttons and use the script to activate different Hvars depending on if the button is pressed momentarily or held (or if both buttons are pressed together), in order to operate the EDM as it would be in the real unit.

    Hi, still back to the original question. An option to disable the "VLF Update" message at least would be nice.

    Similarly, while programming SPAD as well, I've been trying to understand the CWS/ATT mode further myself and have confused myself with the manual. Should pushing ATT sync the pitch knob/FD to the current pitch of the aircraft? Or should I be pushing CWS first to achieve that? (I suppose that's really an "order of operations" type question perhaps) Thanks!

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

    Hi Everyone, I recently bought the Analog Caravan to have a 208B that operated realistically in MSFS. When I was buying it, I was under the impression that one of the main aspects of upgrades over the vanilla Caravan was in regards to how the engine operated. I understood that this addon overhauled engine operation to a realistic standard. However after about 20 hours and nearly a dozen flights, I repeatedly see that some behaviours I would expect of a "realistic" turboprop engine simulation do not manifest themselves. Namely, ITT increase with altitude and residual heat. I am in a flight right now over Southern France and have climbed at max-power to 22,000ft with the engine getting colder and colder as I climb. I have also witnessed engine heat resetting to ambient after each shut down. Additionally I also keep seeing the engine temperature exceeding well over the redline in every startup, when in real life it barely even reaches it with starts over 16% Ng. I am not questioning the integrity of the promotional material, but I am starting to suspect that somehow, despite the cockpit looking like I am using the correct addon, I am actually experiencing vanilla Caravan engine simulation. Does anyone what could be the issue and this might have happened? I am using default livery that came with the install. Assistance is appreciated. Edit: Don't know if this is relevant but I just noticed the default liveries that come with Analog Overhaul install looks the same once I start a flight, no matter which one I choose.

    Ah, didn't know that. Thanks! Also understand the decision not to go for WASM.

    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.

    @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.
