    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)

    I did a few flights and it's such a great plane. The engine management with the new lean assist and monitoring, plus customizable screen layout makes it even better than before. @Black-Square do you plan to add any minor features or enhancements to it after Starship is done? All I can think of would making high-res textures for the landing gear bays (they show up in the external views or when people inspect the plane on the ground), and the reversible prop would be really cool. Some dirt maybe.

    Ah, sorry you've encountered that one too! It relates to an internal simulator rounding error that has been with us for years now. You can read about it here. Luckily, there is a solution, but it's nothing that I can tell you how to do quickly. If you would like, I can provide you a file that should be a drop-in replacement. I just can't do it over the forums, so you will have to get in touch with Just Flight support, and then they can send you the file. Just create a ticket and let them know that I sent you. Sorry for the inconvenience! I will include this fix in the next updates for all my aircraft.

    Have not had the joy of playing with the Dukes yet, but hopefully on a rainy day soon'ish. Anyone who could shed some light on this?

    Isn't the Fuel Boost pump supposed to be on prior to start and the low fuel pressure light out? I've been flying the Caravan a lot in Africa and so far have had no problems starting.

    Thank you for the response and the instructions on how to fix the issue. I appreciate your work and the quality of your add-ons! Waiting for the release of the Dukes I was also wondering if there are any plans to introduce a dedicated GTN Xi bezel in future updates, instead of using a GTN bezel for both models?

    Thanks for the thoughtful reply. Hope you find a solution, as you can see from my test, except for the main knobs, it seems a bit random what 'interacts' and not. Btw. I mentioned that I did this mapping to avoid getting a Octavi IFR-1, but I belive that fully interactive GPS-units would also benefit customers of this unit very much.

    Yes, it's the same situation. It should work with all the other GPS units, though. I have not seen a solution for the WT 530 proposed in the community, but from my perusal of the code, I believe it's something that needs to be added within the WT 530's code. I've already made several modifications to it myself, so I might see if there is something I can do.

    Very exciting! Looking forward to getting a 'cleaner' cockpit. As I don't know the aircraft(s) in real life, I sometimes find it a bit confusing when 'sim-settings' show up on the regular panels. So I like the approach of moving maintenance and aircraft options to a separate 'efb'. Also seems like a logic most developers follow these days. Looking forward to the preview, and intrigued about what the 'never-before-seen' features could be

    Are you referring to the morse code identifier? This is not in my control, and has bothered many simmers since MSFS was released. I recall hearing it loud and clear a few weeks ago, but perhaps the latest sim update took a step backwards in that department.

    @bentree Can you specify "starting up"? Do you mean right after loading the flight or after full engine start and ready for taxi? I have experienced CTDs close to loading flight but not upon ready for taxi. On the other hand I had issues starting to roll after releasing parking brake, which is why I deleted the key bind and use the click spot only.
