    I had a button assigned to 'cabin lights' on my hardware, as soon as I turned that button on I got the instrument lights. My bad. Topic can be closed thank you.

    Every damage that isn't engine or icing should be disabled.

    I rewatched the livestream where I first noticed this happening. As soon as he enters beta after landing, the RPM drops, and confused by the sound, he looks down at the pedestal and sees the RPM lever in the feathered position. Even though in the release version the physical prop lever no longer visibly moves, I assume that’s still what’s happening under the hood: the prop is going fully into feather. This would also explain why it currently takes so long to exit beta/reverse, since the prop needs time to unfeather. [image: stream.png]

    And I would add that getting from PIT mode to VS mode is not easy without losing the target altitude selection..

    @Black-Square here is the video i pulled together. it's sectioned off by some time in the caravan pro cockpit, then the turbine duke cockpit, and finally the analog caravan cockpit using the ftsim+ sounds. Please excuse the beginner-level editing and lack of adherence to checklists. I'll repair my engines prior to my next flights, I promise. https://youtu.be/bd6q7eGjazo I wanted to try to pull together a small sample of sounds that might help me compose some more meaningful thoughts to give you. I realize sounds are super subjective so take this feedback as you please. The engine sounds on the new caravan pro sound much quieter to me, especially at the ends of the throttle (at idle, it sounds like there's a cabin fan running in the background, not an engine) and at max power it just feels like it's missing that throaty roar that you get out of the other two soundscapes. It just feels like it lacks depth and purpose. I was also noticing that there was almost no difference when moving the condition lever from low to high or back in the new caravan pro. There should be something more going on here, right? Something seems off with the beta / reverse thrust but since my IRL piloting experience is limited to single-engine pistons, I don't have real-world experience to base this off of. It just sounds thin and not throaty like I would expect. Honestly, now that I am reading back through this it sounds to me like the entire engine soundscape is lacking bass and depth. That's the best way I could describe my experience. I hope this helps. I am happy to do more testing / sampling / whatever if it would help you. Also, as an aside I initially started up my sim, uninstalled the FlightFX Piaggio and restarted the sim prior to collecting these samples. I don't think that causes an issue on '20 but I wanted to eliminate it from the board just in case.

    Found a way to avoid the second point. I was always selecting an arrival airport before starting the flight and this triggered the auto-import later in the Starship. No arrival airport, no automatic import, good enough for me

    Came here looking for the solution to the fuel imbalance. These Black Square aircraft continue to blow my mind! I love this attention to detail!

    Every type of chart offered by Navigraph at the time of the update will be considered. It is certainly the aim to have every type of Navigraph chart supported on our EFB. Mark - Just Flight

    Thanks. The engage button on KAP140 is really a troublemaker. Do not touch.... My new procedure: Only select desired alt on ground. Scroll knob. Lining up on runway - Set bug on rwy heading. After TO - hit AP hdg button. AP instantly engage. AP pitch mode is now set to actual pitch or vs . I am not sure which- but now you can adjust vs with up/down buttons.

    just select the radio stack you want, hit restart flight and load into it, and then exit out of sim normally from the main menu. I believe that should fix it. hopefully state saving gets fixed soon...

    I also agree with this, and want to add, that at power lever idle, and condition lever at low idle, it rolls across the ground without any power addition. It doesn't have that much in real life and requires a bit of thrust to get her rolling.

    @MiRexer said in Tablet options not saving: State saving is an issue in 2024 right now. This is on MSFS 2020 by the way - I haven't tried it on 2024 yet due to known issues.

    An anchor option would be nice though, the Beaver developed by... Milviz IIRC, had an anchor which was really nice when you wanted to do but when it was moved to 2024 and the tablet they had was converted to the default 2024 one, it lost the ability to do it.
