    Oil pressure variable in manual shows L:BKSQ_CARAVAN_FUELPRESSURE. As always, masterpiece of a product. You should be proud mr Black Square.

    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.

    @Tadeus72 said in Your favorite medium-long range cruise altitude: Thank you, often when crossing the States I actually look for a scenic route, this might be a great inspiration, will check it out. If you fly it, please let me know how you like it. I think there's one small "error" in it near the Grand Canyon, one airfield you can get into but the runway might be too short to get out of again. Of course, if you're not flying it for the VA you can skip it no problem. I've yet to fly it myself.

    Sorry to ask again, I don´t want to bother you, but it´s been 3 weeks since the release of the dukes (piston and turbine) as single aircraft on MS 2024 Marketplace. So I wonder when the bundle is coming? Since the aircraft are available now as single versions, I don´t get why the bundle takes so much time. Maybe another challenge with the store? Greets Data

    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....

    Just sharing my experience, something I haven't encountered for a long time now, a gradual performance degradation over long flight. TLDR: reset the weather radar if sim become stuttery/crawling slow Was doing a long vatsim flight today and after around 2.5 hrs encountered stutters that won't go away. [image: cc8d0502-2e93-466d-8ca7-d0c1ae04db7b.png] After an hour or so sim came down to crawl, tried changing settings/clearing rolling etc/nothing would affect this [image: 9b599774-66de-4dff-a7b5-0c1c7dfb1306.png] Suddenly I recalled posting here ages ago about some constant FPS loss when the wx radar is turned on...so I turned the radar off, eureka!! [image: 780602a3-06e4-4fee-9bf2-54b06b5c1642.png] Now during that flight I still saw gradual performance degradation and luckily another WX reset did the trick. I do however think that the radar range also affects the performance (usually using 120NM in cruise) so I've reduced it to 40NM and that seems to be stable till the end of the flight. Just wanted to share this in case you will encounter this, not sure if this is a bug that manifests only with the TBM850 or a global sim issue with the last beta. *( and didn't reported to MSFS yet.... sorry but I've lost my faith in their bug handling and lacking communication)

    @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.

    Yes, the idea is cool, I would also like a plane, and even with a g1000. But while I'm enjoying the A36TC, I've already conquered 3 continents.

    @Bishop I'd be very surprised if it weren't an analog. I mean when has Black Square ever not done steam gauges? Ok, Starship, but that doesn't count that 80s glass cockpit is rad.

    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.
  • Thanks for the updates, Starship 1.2 and Velocity XL 1.4

    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...

    @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.

    That solution above worked for me. Copilot must have GREAT abs (holding their legs in the air the entire flight) - and the armrest cover for the breakers interferes with the arm but it looks pretty good. You have to make the change and then load flight simulator (or quit and restart). You also may have to have copilot weight in the right seat in the aircraft tablet and or the flight sim EFB.
