Starship

I'm on leg 25 of this massive world tour, available on flightsim.to. It did not include a stop on Reunion, but flew right past it so I added it, as well as a stop in Antarctica. [image: fa09f856-73ae-43a3-bdac-9d3c37af2e14.png] https://flightsim.to/file/93601/around-the-world-flight-plan

Theres nothing strange about the procedure, thats a PT6A thing from Pratt. I've seen that on King Airs, and Twin Otters too

@Black-Square said in Landing Characteristics: @Orlaam For whatever reason, I have found it not possible (or not reasonable to create a workaround for) MSFS's lack of propeller drag. I suspect this is more pronounced with Starship, just because the airframe itself has much less drag than your average aircraft. I've seen Caravans descend at 3,000-4,000 fpm while holding speed, but you're not going to achieve that at flight idle in MSFS either. I do the best I can without implementing "invisible spoilers", as this technique guarantees extreme ridicule in flight sim for some reason, regardless of the results. Does Starship produce more drag in the sim with props full forward?

@ProfCrash That makes perfect sense. Thank you!

Additionally the flight plan was loaded by hand

@rinkerbuck If you remove the navigraph database it works fine. Im wondering if this is a bug in the starship, in msfs or in the navigraph data

Looking at you photo and comparing to the addon, there is indeed a marker missing between the aircraft altitude numbers in the addon (there are three, should be four)

@Black-Square last Carenado Cessna 206 for MSFS24 use MSFS24 default passengers very well and working good. So maybe door isn’t closed for Starship in the same way.

Starship really was ahead of its time.

sorry if i wasn't clear, it was entered by hand. that's where i first noticed something was amiss because manually adding VUPHI wasn't doing anything - it seemed to be acting like the waypoint didn't exist... which is why i was slightly surprised that it showed up as an available transition for the RNAV procedure. but then i was slightly less surprised that selecting it didn't correctly add the procedure, it just added the final waypoint.

Thank you. I hadn't thought of that. Excited for the update!

@Black-Square I can't say exactly, how other planes provide this data. But from a cursory reading of the python scripts responsible for getting the data from the airplanes, parsing it and then sending it to Mobiflight, it seems that Websocket is commonly used to get the data. After that, it's parsed in the appropriate manner and then transmitted to the external Hardware. With that in mind, I guess, a JSON-String that is pushed to this script through a Websocket-Connection, could be all that's needed to get the data to Mobiflight. See here for the Mobiflight-Scripts: https://github.com/MobiFlight/MobiFlight-Connector/tree/main/Scripts/Winwing

@Gilandred It really was this sound!

@Black-Square GREAT as usually. Ciao

It's always something... All fixed. Thank you. If it wasn't clear from above, by the way, that is a real placard in the aircraft. [image: 19dd939e-5935-4a89-9be7-c01002709b5d.jpg]

Yes, this was exactly what happened. The ground textures turned very blurry in a small circle around my aircraft too, maybe a 10m radius. The only add-on I use that changes LOD is AutoFPS but I use AutoFPS on every flight and have never seen this behaviour before. Always a giant leap forwards and then fall backwards with this sim. I can't wait until it's more stable. Thank you for your feedback and good luck with your Simisms

This happens a lot of other aircraft as well. Plate will show an IAF you can't select. This has happened to me in PMDG, Fenix, and a myriad of add-ons, even with the Garmin GTN750. I find you can usually enter them manually however.

Those messages are indicative of severely damaged engines. You can repair the engines using the "Repair Engine" buttons on each engine visualizer in the tablet interface. Happy flying!
