    Honestly, it's one of the features A2A has that yours do not. Would sure be nice to enjoy.

    I absolutely love your Bonanza/Baron package, it's my go to for about everything.... but would absolutely love to see this mod done by ZachB available to us all instead of an AVSIM friends wall lol? [image: 05fcae58-c45f-481f-b065-fdeb9e3d06b8.png] Curious why it isn't possible?

    Is there a way to use MSFS 2024 live traffic while having MSFS use the FS Traffic models and liveries? Any recommended configuration?

    I already have eyesight issues and my second string to the bow to induce levels of pseudo hypoxia seem to centre around more beer which could be deemed as quite successful, though further testing needs to be carried out to keep currency in this area of research.

    More testing last night at various speeds and the ILS seems to start failing at around 3 miles or so, even when trying a fast approach and a chop of power for the remaining approach. The fact that nobody else seems to be seeing this may suggest that it may be something purely at my end. I do use Axis and Ohs but only the plugin to drive the radio panels and Streamdecks. Nothing is bound as such control wise.

    @turnandbank It may not be realistic but in this case I also prefer it this way. I dont get it why Cessna designed it that way in the first place.

    Thanks so much for the positive response - I'd be absolutely delighted to contribute, and it would be great to see these changes make it into the base file! They should work in other KAS297B equipped planes too unless your code changes wildly between them. Here's the modified KAS297B.js on Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/N2zwz8ia I've not changed any formatting, so it should diff nicely. And all my additions are commented with //Jiblet: I've added a bit of explanation inline either for you, or for future me when I need to go back and see why I did what I did. I think its as performant as possible but I've not written a line of production code in about 15 years, so I make no promises that I haven't done something daft! I've spent some time this morning completing the Stream Deck version of the KAS297B, in case I needed any other vars exposed but it looks like we're good and I'm done with it, bar any minor formatting/position tweaks as I give it some testing: [image: 23f6638e-738b-474d-99b4-ada3bd716f89.webp] [image: 9678a441-7cf4-477c-8571-a36b43e49c38.webp] It's a silly little thing but I'm quite please with it! The little extra grey dot is just to show if you're changing 100s or 1000s (using the upper/lower knob) as the Stream Deck only has single knobs, not dual. Thanks again! It's a great to be able to contribute something back, even if it's tiny!

    Sorry for the delay. Just getting back from an audio recording trip for the Twin Commanders and the King Air. 1-3 are generally in the realm of "my aircraft don't support Ctrl-E", and "MSFS 2024's flight starting/restarting system are very confused." I will look into the loss of synchronization with reloads to see if there is an easy solution, but when I have looked into similar things in the past, they were beyond my control to fix. This has been reported, and I've already fixed it for the next update. Thanks. I will test this next time I have the simulator open, but the code is identical to my other aircraft where this feature has been working for years. You're referring to the copilot's side localizer for use with the KNS-81? You can control the OBS simply by modifying L:var_RNAV_OBS, number. Let me know if you have any trouble with that. I use the simulation variable A:SURFACE TYPE, ENUM, which is the only way to read surface type to the best of my knowledge. I know next to nothing about scenery design, but I believe that the designer should have the opportunity to select an appropriate surface type tag while creating any custom materials. The audio panel switches are not state saved in any of my aircraft. Sorry for the disappointment. Let me know if you have any more questions, or if there is anything else I can do for you!

    I wonder if this is related to my post below. The topic is slightly misnamed, as it's VOR tracking using any avionics. The key seems to be the use of third-party control mappers such as Spad.Next or FSUIPC. I honestly haven't done any further testing for a while. https://community.justflight.com/topic/10383/nav-mode-keeps-changing-to-rol-with-non-gps-avionics

    @ch0llis another big thanks to you. It looks a lot better now with those bits ironed out. I'm grateful for your efforts.

    2024 models brake fade, which could be relevant if you've been practising circuits and have heated up your brakes. One of the debug tools in Dev Mode shows brake effectiveness and live values - check the 'Aircraft' > 'Wheels' overlay. The yellow lines coming from the wheels show the force direction and the length indicates the amount of force. [image: 0f23a377-259a-4cac-a1ac-1853f7236db2.png] Here, the aircraft is turning so there is a sideways force. When braking, the force is backwards etc. With the Duke, the force lines from the main wheels are always vertical, which might be an indicator of a slightly different implementation in the sim, as the handling otherwise feels correct. I'm not meaning to pick at Nick's incredible work, so have no idea what this difference actually means. Here you see a high force on the left wheel and small force on the right wheel, due to a tight right turn (but the lines do not 'lean' to show the sideways forces as for the C152): [image: 05058e25-d0e6-4cab-a7ce-ab834275eb8a.png] Finally, the overlay window shows brake temperatures and effectiveness. As they get hot, the effectiveness reduces. Here's a sample after taxying around with my left brake on: [image: a7d4a1bc-3fe3-48b0-98cc-05849785eca1.png] I'm applying 100% brakes but am only getting 70% effectiveness due to the brakes being 229°C! Also, since you asked, the overlay shows the surface type under each wheel and it changes dynamically along with the lateral and longitudinal forces: [image: c8d5f7d9-1e67-4456-aca4-af1146d8368c.png] So while I can't give you any definitive answers, I can perhaps give you a way to check/test your situations and understand what might be happening. It's fun to look under the hood and see the magic happening Regards, Martyn

    @RealPax i will do that latter on when I get home and will incorporate as much info as I can on this. Only have time for a small 30 min flight or so tonight.

    @RealPax Yeah, that's a good idea. I currently do not have that much time to fly, so I usually stick with familiar terrain to avoid having to prepare the flights for too long

    Thanks for the link! I’ll watch this tonight with a brew. Just had a quick look……so familiar when the camera zoomed into the various flight deck panels. Just Flight absolutely nailed this beauty. The RJ and 146 remain 2 of my favourite modules in the game.

    @Smilzo82 I'd recommend you contact the person at JF support that wrote the email. He is probably best placed to deal with this.
