I have the RJ, 146, and F28 and I am unable to use any of them due to this. I did go into the work .ini file on all of them and changed the hardware from 0 - 1 while the sim was off and clicked save. However it did nothing to solve the issue. Ive read through basically all the TCA posts and have found no other solutions. Any help would be much appreciated.

Wow, didn't even realize an audio panel was hiding under the EFB. Thanks, got it working!

I was talking with a former Duke pilot earlier today, but unfortunately, I forgot to ask him. I looked into my documents from the Duke Owners Association, and I could not find a consensus on whether to heat from the pressurized air, or from the cabin heater. I found most owners operating in the way the manual describes, using the pressurization air as supplemental heating, but also a couple mentions of starting with the pressurization air. I will let you know if I learn more. I also discovered something new to me, which I have implemented in my simulation. Apparently the heater blower runs when the ambient temperature is above 90°F to provide cooling to the radar and any other avionics located in the nose compartment.

I also found the intercooler assembly in the parts manual for you. Here is the diagram:

DukeCabinIntercooler.jpg

Detail B is the valve assembly, and component 11 is the vent overboard, so the system functions by restricting cooling air intake, as depicted on my tablet displays. Amazing questions, as always!

I agree that failures associated with overstress such as this would be nice to have, if not too difficult to implement. Perhaps the flaps (or a single flap) could jam for instance. But I have a feeling that such a failure could only happen outside the standard MSFS SDK, thereby needing custom coding which influences the flight model - suddenly it's a complex situation to program, and perhaps outside the scope of the Black Square aircraft and what they are trying to be.

That all said, the more true-to-life risks and realism we get, the better! I'd settle for more depth and fewer aircraft, as I don't have the free time nor inclination to deeply learn them all. I may be in the minority. (Most people just want more and more aircraft it seems and can never have enough.)

The FS Traffic Fleet will be listed as a separate download in your account. Once the FS Traffic installer has been run, the FS Traffic Fleet installer can then be run and it will install itself in the Community folder.

Once installed, the FS Traffic Fleet folder should be located at ...\Community\justflight-aircraft-traffic-fleet\

@Aymerix Yes, that should be the correct file directory for the MSFS 2024 Steam version. I have updated my previous comment to reflect that, and the following FAQ will also have the correct file directories listed: https://support.justflight.com/en/support/solutions/articles/17000145452-uns-1-how-can-i-import-a-flight-plan-from-simbrief-

Apologies for the inconvenience.

The registration on the cockpit registration placard will be based on the registration/tail number set in the MSFS Main Menu prior to the flight. The logic of this is slightly different depending on which simulator you are using.

In MSFS 2020, having a custom registration/tail number set in the main menu will force that registration to appear in the cockpit. If that field is left blank, the registration on the cockpit placard will display the registration of the currently selected livery.

In MSFS 2024, a random registration/tail number is assigned in the main menu and that will be displayed in the cockpit. Unlike in MSFS 2020, if that registration/tail number is deleted the registration displayed in the cockpit will revert to a generic Asobo registration instead of the registration of the currently selected livery. The only way to have the liveries correct registration displayed in the cockpit is to manually enter the registration in the main menu prior to the flight. This logic we believe will be fixed in the upcoming MSFS Sim Update 2 so that it will function like the MSFS 2020 version.

Hope that helps.

HI Mark. I do have some issues regarding the database. Not many, mind you and certainly can usually do a work around. The most recent was a flight from MMMY in Mexico (Mariano Escobedo) to KCRP (Corpus Christi). The runway numbers were 1 degree off from the MS Flight Planner. I also had one waypoint which didn’t register. Using the Xbox and its limitations, I really commend all of you for a fine AC. I hope the updates will keep coming. - Gary

@Mark said in Weather radar intermittent INOP:

Unfortunately, it's proven to be a tricky bug to track down and find reliable steps to reproduce.

I'll see if I can find a pattern. Thanks for replying!

This isn't something we were aware of, however, we suspect we may know the reason behind this (relating to how LODs are handled within MSFS 2024). We'll log this on our internal bugs tracker as something to investigate ahead of the next Vulcan update. Thanks for reporting this!

The pushback tug can be disabled for a specific aircraft in the aircraft.cfg. In the [SERVICES] section of the aircraft.cfg, ensure the following parameters are both set to "0":

PUSHBACK = 0
SMALL_PUSHBACK = 0

The aircraft.cfgs for our PA28s are located in the following locations:

...\Community\justflight-aircraft-pa28-arrow-iii\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_Arrow
...\Community\justflight-aircraft-pa28-turboarrow\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_TurboArrow_III
...\Community\justflight-aircraft-pa28-turboarrow\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_TurboArrow_IV
...\Community\justflight-aircraft-pa28-warrior-ii\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_Warrior_II

There are also settings within MSFS itself which can effect the generation of ground services. In MSFS Options > General Options > Traffic, setting AIRPORT VEHICLE DENSITY to 0 will ensure no ground services are generated at an airport, however, this is a global setting that affects all aircraft/airports.

Hope that helps.

@Mark I hadn't spotted this post by @zntgrg but spotted your response to my query in the other thread. Many thanks for the update and for a splendid aircraft...

@Mark
No probs - thanks for the response...I am relieved that it isn't a quirk in my own system (MrsAJZip assures me I have plenty of those to begin with!)

The F-28 Professional is a joy to fly in VR. Great stuff!

From a few tests, it looks like its an issue with GSX integration.

If I only use the pushback request from GSX and deselect GSX integration from the settings menu on the tablet, brakes work each time.

This isn't something we are able to replicate on our side. Could we kindly ask you to raise a ticket with Just Flight support via the following link: https://www.justflight.com/support

Included with the ticket, if you could provide details on the simulator being used, as well as a video of the behavior and/or steps on how to reproduce it, then that will allow our support team the best chance of being able to reproduce this behavior.

We will be turning our attention to our PA28 and PA38 fleets in the near future and beginning the process of bringing them across to MSFS 2024. We'll be sure to share updates as work progresses.

The current status of the MSFS 2024 compatibility updates for our products can be found here: https://www.justflight.com/articles/just-flight-addons-msfs-2024-compatibility-status

The RJ already uses 8K textures as standard for larger panel areas such as the main instrument panel. The difference between the RJ and F28 is the size of the texture sheets based on our artist's different techniques. The F28 has smaller texture sheets and therefore has a higher pixel density, the RJ has larger texture sheets and lower pixel density.

In order to have the same effect as the F28 optional 8K texture pack, the RJ would require an extensive rework of all the cockpit textures. A significant undertaking which wouldn't be feasible for us at the moment. Never say never, but we're very happy with the quality of the current RJ textures when viewed from the standard pilot position.

Wonderful. I'm so glad I thought of that. Happy flying! There will be a compatibility update for the Dukes soon, so you can look forward to improved visuals and some new walkaround features.
