Caravan Professional

Absolutely wonderful. I'm so glad you're enjoying another of my aircraft. As I think you might understand, I create my aircraft to hopefully be appreciated with deep-dives and long-term interest. You also read my promise recently that I will continue to support MSFS 2020 for the foreseeable future

The bundle deal is now available on the Marketplace. [image: 98767d05-7345-48e5-b4e1-7cb5b30d1bd7.jpg]

Wow, thank you for such a quick reply - good to know!

Hi, I'm the developer of the KLN-90B. The real unit does not calculate a VNAV path and therefore does not output any sort of VNAV information to other avionics or to the autopilot. You would need to fly those approaches with CDFA manually. The manual of the KLN mentions that the database only contains approaches that the KLN is capable of flying. However, a pilot who still uses the KLN in the real world, showed me, that the database actually contains pretty much all RNAV approaches, even those that the KLN would not be legally allowed. Therefore, there is now hardly any filtering for the approaches anymore. Handy for us sim pilots... If you are interested in discussing the KLN capabilities further, there is a link to the Discord server on the Github page of the KLN-90B. I only check the JF forums occasionally.

Just a personal observation on this. When i bought the baron and bonanza packages and did my first flights. The same happened to me. What i noticed was that on my yoke profile in controll settings, i had "set nosewheel limit" mapped for the piaggio 180 on a button. Maby i pressed that in flight. After i removed it on a new profile i never had this issue ever again. I only had the locked steering issue on day 1 of owning these planes and it has never happened again since. This is on msfs 2020. Maby it helps.

@Black-Square something like euro truck sim when drivers sleepy maybe? If not, then perhaps loss of controls to a greater degree?

Guys neofly is pretty good already. Moreover, two good career addons are already in the pipeline with one being in early access - frontierwings (for dedicated bushflying) and another one cant remember the name, for underworld activities. Additionally, maybe sometime in the future BS can roll out their own career addon

@sgtSeme4ki I’m experiencing the same issue, and I’ve found the same workaround. As soon as I turn off the Bendix weather radar, the flight runs smoothly again with no stutters. BTW, I’m running the same mods (CP, FSR+, TDS GTNXi).

@brettsan @Black-Square and anyone else interested: I've heard back from the lovely people at Virtual-Fly who have been hard at work coming up with a fix native to VF Hub: [image: 9c59397a-092f-4cd4-bad8-e979d600cdb6.png] They sent me a beta version what I've tried it out in the Caravan and a few other planes now to see how it handled thing and it's great! Roger also confirmed they'd be happy with me sharing the file here, so here is their dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/w2mqbgu9evgd4fb9b7uih/VFHub.exe?rlkey=i8tuyo3pz97p2c5j96gd41q82&dl=1 Obviously don't blindly trust me, or indeed them nor anyone else, especially when it comes to .exes. So scan it with whatever you usually scan things with.

I run the Flitesim CLS60 FFB yoke which like your Moza, runs externally to the sim through it's own software. I don't get any issues but could imagine that if you are handling the aircraft manually through the yoke hardware trim that there might be scope for a bit of confusion or mismatch on AP engagement between the yoke software and that of the sim itself. Have a thorough look around the Yoke software to see if such a possibility exists. All a bit of a guess, but I did have a similar thought rammed down my throat with the Lear 35 due its rather unusual trim system. Good luck!

@Astrogator said in Wasted nearly 80 bucks: So, here we are with another masterpiece of Blacksquare. When I bought the dukes and the bonanzas, my flight time with my PMDG 777 went down. And now with the Caravan it's zero. It's just so much more fun to fly GA with BlackSquare planes than to fly airliners no matter how good they are. Thanks for your work! Post of the century!

@Magic6420 a skydive variant is what many users have been asking as well. Who knows whats on the cards

Trust me, you succeed every time. You bring the real World into the digital one.

@Bigmarty And thank you for letting us know! I'm always happy when someone posts their solutions, because this forum ranks very highly in Google search results. Hopefully that helps someone in the future with the same problem. Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you!

@slipperfruit I can confirm as mentioned in this topic: https://community.justflight.com/topic/10384/loading-the-caravan-on-the-water-damages-the-engine/13 I have done several C&D starts on water now without having any issues. As jarkows mentiond just make sure you select the option "cold and dark". Otherwise you might end up with a running engine.

Yes it worked for me this way. I dont know what i did wrong yesterday. After i activate the cursor and put on the numbers this changed my squawk and not the courser timer field. In my test today it has worked as you descriped it. Anyway. Thanks for check.

Very cold and dark start recommended. Motor the engine and monitor Ng and ITT to prevent a wet start

@Ape42 You might be the new record holder for posting the longest standing bug in Microsoft Flight Simulator. I recall having this issue as far back as Flight Simulator 5 in 1994. I can imagine how I would program a workaround for all my aircraft, which I will add to the backlog. If it's easy, then I will do it for the next update. Thanks for sharing. I'm so familiar with some of these 30+ year old bugs that they are probably invisible to me by now!
