    You may be right. I had noticed that actually, but hadn't nailed down what was causing it. I assumed I had maybe broken something in the file. If that were able to be reset somehow after spawn in it would be a great workaround.

    Thank you for pointing to this. But it seems to be a different issue. Mine is only related to ILS approach where the GS signal just disappears at some point on short final. Will try to make a video

    Having the same issue. Opened a thread considering this issue a few days ago here in the forum. As long as you don't try to correct the wobble with rudder input you are fine, bevause the caravan actually stays right on track despite the wobble. It's highly unsettling though.

    thx for the prompt reply. considering the popularity of the PA28 IRL, i'd imagine there must be a fairly good market?

    I haven't deleted any folders. I was advised to install into the Custom location after choosing Default. This installs the plane into F:/ Just Flight/ BlkSqu etc. Then I was advised to copy that blkSqu folder and paste it into my Community folder for MSFS 2024. Fair enough, the plane is now installed. I can uninstall using the Windows Control Panel, but it won't uninstall the plane from my Community folder. I must do that manually. Can you see how much of a faff this is. I was also advised to delete the Just Flight folder which the installer created. However, if I do that, the Uninstall from Control Panel will fail and then my registry is going to be out of sync with my installed programs. Most addons these days can find your Community folder without any problems. I just feel a smarter installer would do a better job with such a high quality addon. Patching the Amphibious version is going to be a right PITA if I can remember how to do it in a few months time. I hope a better installer is built for this addon.

    @slipperfruit I can take off from Nanwalek, which is 1800ft, but I don't need anywhere near the whole runway to do that.

    @lj9706 I think the pressure needs to be on to release a new generation of consoles, but, I suspect that would come with its own drawbacks...

    I have working throttles in SPAD.next. And it makes my brain itch. This should not work: [image: f79e9b82-de25-442c-8815-e8e201de78f9.png] But it does. (This is for the Caravan with min_throttle_limit = -1.0 as @Black-Square intended) It seems to be that forward throttle range goes from +16383 (fully forward) to -16383 (idle point). And Reverse goes from -16383 (idle point) to -49149 (full reverse, or -16383 -16383*2)). I'm going to be sick. That just feels so many kinds of wrong but it's working in sim. I think I'll need a lie down before tackling the Prop levers. Note that you'd need a different Full Reverse Thrust value (the -49149) depending on the engine's min_throttle_limit. So the standard -0.15 would be -21300 I think... Correction: -49153 gets you -100%, full reverse. If I do get all 3 levers working I'll publish a profile on SPAD The snippet above is posted under #16443 if anyone wants it. Id be interested to know if it works for you too. Edits ahoy... Snippet #16444 for prop handling. It's nasty but it seems to work perfectly. Snippet #16445 for the condition lever, and I'm done! Snippet #16446 for the whole device. Go nuts! I'm done for the day Works perfectly (i think) for the Caravan. Works great for Starship and will be better once that -1.0 for the min engine. Its pretty good for the Duke and Bonanza turbines but the condition levers could be improved for those

    I did read something inside the MSFS Forum that their might be a difference regarding theway the surface is handled as soon as you below 65 ktn. Need to do some tests to see if this does have any influence.

    @JakeBunny This is exactly what I tried to explain that you might be experiencing above. The issue is that the water rudders may appear to be up, and the handling in the cockpit is in the correct position, but the invisible water rudders in the physics simulation are still down. I'm still not sure what steering tiller input you're using (perhaps I'm just unfamiliar with this hardware input), but it's likely that it's turning the invisible water rudders. Here is how I worded it in the changelog, just for different phrasing: The water rudder may have invisibly failed to extend or retract in MSFS 2024 due to an undocumented change. Previously, users may have experienced a perceived lack of water rudder authority, or perceived abundance of aerodynamic rudder authority, depending on how the aircraft was loaded. If you wanted to test this to confirm my suspicion, you could copy these two lines of code, replacing the corresponding "point.15", and "point.19" entries in the amphibian's flight_model.cfg: point.15 = 5, -33.20, -5.33, -4.00, 2500, 0, 0.75, 40, 0.30, 2.5, 0.85, 0.01, 0.01, 8, 200, 200, 1 point.19 = 5, -33.20, 5.33, -4.00, 2500, 0, 0.75, 40, 0.30, 2.5, 0.85, 0.01, 0.01, 8, 200, 200, 1

    What is considered "short final" to you? Can you record a video showing the issue so it can be reproduced?

    @Black-Square Not sure if you can do anything about this, but this was Matts reply to another user regarding the same issue 2 years ago... I will probably mention in the A2A forums as well pending your response (if you have time to reply that is...). I don't really see how the AUX page not functioning can be an aircraft issue.
