Piston & Turbine Dukes

Bought both aircraft in 2020 marketplace, can confirm the updates have made it into 2024. Wonderful updates and thank you for continuing to add the PNS750 for us Xbox users.

Do you use FSRealistic?

No Luck so far.

@Black-Square Wait, I mean I knew that turbines are significantly lighter than reciprocating engines, but I hadn't ever thought much of the fact that the empty weight on the piston Dukes is lower, and by a few hundred pounds that can't all come from the second battery. Where could all that extra weight come from? I thought other than the engines, second battery and the requisite differences to the HVAC, pressurization systems and panel they were largely identical?

Understood.

@Iconography think i finally solved the issue just in the fenix now same thing don't see anything moving, so instead of using my key board short cut, i used the menu bar to go to external and now i see every thing moving

I was using Su4. I've just tried it again with the SU4 update from last night and it seems to be OK. Still got the VR problem but at least they are moving now. My bad for not trying it with the current release

@Mustang said in Ear Discomfort Index: perhaps the sounds could be slowly dulled until you simulate 'popping' your ears I actually thought of this too. It would be a lot of fun, but as you can imagine, I'm always worried about our many niche features resulting in confusion for the more casual users.

@Black-Square you can turn off light shafts in graphics, I just want to see shafts sometimes, like in clouds so I leave it on for now. Would be cool if you could add a realistic landing lights option in tablet maybe.

@Zwoop68 Thanks for the link. I had seen that thread, but given the title, I skipped it. I confirm that's the problem, and now I've solved it. Thanks.

No worries! I’ll sit tight and wait for SU4 to hopefully fix those issues!

@Mustang said in v1.2 quick feedback & couple of nitpicks: the cooling lines were coloured green vs everything else in orange For future reference, when the air conditioning system is fully functioning, the refrigerant lines will be orange and blue. Orange on the return line, and blue on the feed line.

So begins the 7½ years of waiting for Microsoft to get the update to Xbox.

Latest update today, fixed it.

I'd definitely love to see external power available on demand! Some airport designs just don't have parking properly coded.

Thanks Nick. Glad to know it's already noted. It doesn't detract from the enjoyment, just struck me as odd on a few occasions. It must be so challenging to decide where to focus your efforts when there are so many areas you could work on, old and new, especially with your high standards which shine through in all of your aircraft! Letting little inconsequential issues like this go unfixed are probably frustrating for you, but you have to pick your battles

Right! Got it sorted. 4 for the 'On' + Repeat when held. Starter has a little dig but I'll live with that. Can't do a mag check though but I'll live with that as well. Thanks again for replying, I appreciate it. No need to look for another twin now.

Got it. I see the section in the manual. Thanks.
