UNS-1: Database Expired

Yes, unfortunately, it's not possible to update the nav database on Xbox .
We are looking into some methods to allow Xbox users with a Navigraph subscription to update their navdata in our aircraft. We're not able to provide a timeframe for when that may be available at this stage, but we will be sure to keep everyone updated once we have more to share.

@Mark Hi! Is there a solution yet for updating the UNS-1 database on Xbox? It’s already 2026 and it’s getting tricky to navigate with an outdated database. Any expectations for a fix this year? Best regards!

You keep saying that for 2 or 3 years... In the mean time,others devs such as inibuilds, pmdg or aerosoft implemented a way to update na data from inside the sim. So it shouldn't be too complicated. But apparently it's clearly not your priority, which is a little bit a shame for products of great quality that I otherwise appreciate. Just tired of hearing the same melody again and again...

Honestly, there’s no point in having an FMS with outdated data. It feels like a promise that's never fulfilled. Imagine if the Fokker 100 is released the same way? I definitely won't be buying it.

Every feature request that gets passed on to us, including the ones listed in this thread, gets logged on our internal feature request trackers. When the time comes for us to start working on an update for one of our products, our development team will analyse all the items logged on our bug and feature request trackers, and then create a scope for that update. With us actively supporting 10 products for MSFS, plus continued working on our in-development products, it unfortunately isn't feasible for us work through the entire feature request every time a product is updated, so naturally, we do have to prioritise bugs/feature requests.
Throughout 2025, the main focus of our development team has been providing free-of-charge updates/upgrades for all 10 of our MSFS products, upgrading them to MSFS 2024 native standard. You can read more about that here: https://www.justflight.com/articles/end-of-year-round-up-2025-part-one
As the main focus of each of these updates was to upgrade the products to MSFS 2024 native status, any MSFS 2024 related work was the highest priority. Feature requests, especially ones regarding changes to the core FMS code, were of lower priority to these updates and therefore fairly minimal.
We never remove bugs or feature requests from our internal trackers until they are fixed or completed, so rest assured, the requests in this thread remain logged, and they will be considered again when we create the scope for future updates. However, as flight sim development is very fluid, we don't provide timescales for when specific bugs or feature requests will be fixed.
If you prefer not to use the UNS-1 FMS in the F28, you can still take full advantage of the two other methods of navigation, which use the default simulators' navdata that is updated free-of-charge every month:
- Traditional Navigation using the ADF and VHF NAV radios (configured by disabling the "RNAV OPTIONS" option on the EFB/Tablet)
- GNS430 GPS (configured by enabling the "RNAV OPTIONS" option on the EFB/Tablet, and selecting the "GNS 430")

@Mark disse em UNS-1: Banco de Dados Expirado:
Cada solicitação de recurso que é passada para nós, incluindo as listadas neste tópico, é registrada em nossos rastreadores internos de solicitação de recursos. Quando chegar a hora de começarmos a trabalhar em uma atualização para um de nossos produtos, nossa equipe de desenvolvimento analisará todos os itens registrados em nossos rastreadores de solicitações de bugs e recursos e, em seguida, criará um escopo para essa atualização. Com a gente apoiando ativamente 10 produtos para MSFS, além de continuar trabalhando em nossos produtos em desenvolvimento, infelizmente não é viável para nós trabalharmos em toda a solicitação de recursos toda vez que um produto é atualizado, então, naturalmente, temos que priorizar bugs/solicitações de recursos.
Ao longo de 2025, o foco principal da nossa equipe de desenvolvimento tem sido fornecer atualizações/atualizações gratuitas para todos os 10 produtos MSFS, atualizando-os para o padrão nativo MSFS 2024. Você pode ler mais sobre isso aqui: https://www.justflight.com/articles/end-of-year-round-up-2025-part-one
Como o foco principal de cada uma dessas atualizações era atualizar os produtos para o status nativo do MSFS 2024, qualquer trabalho relacionado ao MSFS 2024 era a maior prioridade. Solicitações de recursos, especialmente aquelas relacionadas a alterações no código FMS principal, eram de menor prioridade para essas atualizações e, portanto, bastante mínimas.
Nunca removemos bugs ou solicitações de recursos de nossos rastreadores internos até que sejam corrigidos ou concluídos, portanto, tenha certeza de que as solicitações neste tópico permanecem registradas e serão consideradas novamente quando criarmos o escopo para atualizações futuras. No entanto, como o desenvolvimento do simulador de voo é muito fluido, não fornecemos prazos para quando bugs específicos ou solicitações de recursos serão corrigidos.
Se você preferir não usar o FMS UNS-1 no F28, ainda pode aproveitar ao máximo os outros dois métodos de navegação, que usam os dados de navegação dos simuladores padrão que são atualizados gratuitamente todos os meses:
- Navegação Tradicional usando os rádios ADF e VHF NAV (configurado desativando a opção "OPÇÕES DE RNAV" no EFB/Tablet)
- GPS GNS430 (configurado ativando a opção "OPÇÕES RNAV" no EFB/Tablet e selecionando o "GNS 430")

I have no doubt about your support, but I believe this should be an even higher priority for the community, especially for those on Xbox (who are always the most affected by the limitations we already know). The 'urgency' in implementing this improvement (database updates via the tablet) is perhaps because other developers, like PMDG for example, implemented this a long time ago without much delay. And it works perfectly on both PC and Xbox. I understand your explanation, but as a customer, I don't feel comfortable having a product that could offer even greater immersion and realism if it weren't for an extremely outdated database. I hope new projects like the A300 have this feature (if you offer the UNS-1 as a navigation option there as well).

Hi all.
Has the JF team figured out anything for Xbox users who are still stuck with a 2024 database on the UNS-1? Will there ever be a way to update it? It's honestly not okay that this is still an issue.

Having an option to update Navdata via the Navigraph API remains logged on our feature request list for the UNS-1 in both our 146 Professional and F28 Professional, and it will be something that we investigate ahead of the next update(s) to each product.

@Mark For those of us on Xbox, everything is such a pain and so restricted. Being able to update the UNS-1 database right from the FMS or the tablet would be perfect and would make it feel so much more real. Hope you guys don't take forever!
