    Thanks again for this! I went through the new file, and everything looks perfect. It's those SetSimVarValue calls that really seem to affect performance when in great number, so the simple conditional is usually better. I will include this in my next updates, and I've already updated the manuals with the new variables. You're more than welcome to share the profile! Usually I worry about conflicts later down the line when a mod is made incorrectly, but in this instance, since you will be overwriting only the one file, and with the exact same code that will be in the next update, I think it's mostly safe. You're welcome to make your own package, or wait a month or two until my usual round of summer updates for all my aircraft. There are lots of little new features for all of them, so this will be a nice addition too! Thanks again.

    @Magic6420 Thank you! it's really er... "easy". No. That's not the word... Logical. It's really Logical. It can be a absolutely mind bending for some things, but it's really very powerful. To be fair, the engine monitors I knocked up as a POC there were easy, took about 10 minutes. I don't want to put anyone off exploring pilotsdeck! It's managed to handle everything I've thrown at it so far, and it's free. I'm currently in the (hopefully) final stages of what is basically a Stream Deck +version of Nick's KAS297B This thing:[image: 9d98eb4b-2649-462b-abac-cb530b34667a.png] Trying to get that thousand-separator-comma is doing my head in, but I (think I) will not be beaten. Here it is on the deck: [image: 3a852817-d828-4e5b-8185-018062ec68bd.png]

    I am using the TDS and getting this problem quite frequently. But this only happens when coming out of HDG mode. When using an RNAV procedure to get myself onto the ILS, it never happens. So far, I only encountered this when using Black Square aircraft. And yes, it might be a problem with the standard autopilot but still it’s quite an annoying bug. I love the Black Square aircraft but the autopilot implementation is really a weak point. A2A for example does a custom autopilot implementation for the Comanche and Aerostar and it shows. Much more realistic behaviour and one can actually operate the autopilot using the original manual. It’s quite a pity that Black Square uses highly customized systems for almost everything but then uses the standard autopilot.

    I did check the tablet for failures (there were none, and I turned failures off) I was idling, will increase that a touch. I am using the 750, used the link that was provided, but I am going to check that again. Just need to figure out HOW to get it to turn on, lol. The older ones do turn on.

    Yes, this is actually critical. I understand that Asobo has postponed the SU5 release, and I hope this issue is related to that. However, I haven’t seen any updates beyond it being marked as “bug logged.”

    Do you think you could record a video for me to look at? Since you have the Analog Caravan, I assume you are familiar with starting procedures, so you're waiting until the gas generator reaches its maximum speed before introducing fuel?

    Is it possible to automatically swap the SL40 COM radio for the SL30 NAV/COM radio in slot 2 when the NAV OBS 2 option is turned on, to solve the issue of it only being usable with two GPS units or one GPS as it is now?

    @Black-Square OK that seems to work well. It appears to be simply "slowing down the animation" which works fine for me. @Black-Square said in Customizing the Prop Animation: If you also want to delay the transition to the blurred propeller disk, then change the first line to (A:PROP RPM:1, RPM) 286 > I'm not super concerned, but this didn't seem to affect anything that I could see. I even increased it to the prop's maximum RPM and I still got the blurred disc effect. Also, I think initially I was getting hung up on this final line, thinking that I could somehow multiply the visual RPM by 0.5 as it relates to the engine RPM: (L:bksq_VisualPropRpm, RPM) (>L:BKSQ_CARAVAN_PROP_RPM, RPM) Thanks again!
