  • CHP PNL - CRS2 does not control CRS 2!

    From ~page 63 of the manual: The two course (CRS) knobs are used to adjust the active and preset navigation courses. One might expect the CRS1 CHP knob to adjust the active navigation source and the CRS2 knob to adjust the preset course; however, they actually control the pilot and copilot’s active navigation source unless the associated CDU is displaying the Preset Nav Source screen. The FAQ provides some more information: Counterintuitively, the CRS2 knob does not always control the preset NAV course. Instead, the CRS1 knob controls the pilot’s side active NAV course, and the CRS2 knob controls the copilot’s side active NAV course. Both knobs will only control their respective side’s preset NAV course when the on-side CDU is displaying the Preset NAV Source screen. Always let me know if you have any questions!

    By the way @Black-Square, would you be happy for me to share the altered KAS297B.js file along with my Stream Deck profile on flightsim.to with appropriate caveats? Caveats like "no support from Black Square for this" and "backup the original file!" If not, I'll see what I can do to make a semi-functional dial, but without exposing the "armedVS" value it makes it a bit clunky on the Stream Deck.

    @Akknk Hi everyone, I have one question regarding the cruise profiles. SimBrief offers the following options: MCR-1600 / MCR-1750 / MCR-1900 LRC-1600 / LRC-1750 / LRC-1900 Is there any documentation or table showing the actual performance values behind these profiles? I am especially interested in the expected cruise data by altitude, such as: RPM torque TAS fuel flow ISA assumptions differences between no cargo pod, cargo pod, cargomaster and amphibian I would like to better match the SimBrief profile in the Black Square Caravan during cruise. For example, if SimBrief plans LRC-1900, I would like to know what torque / fuel flow / TAS I should aim for in the aircraft. Are the profiles based on the Black Square manual tables, the real Cessna POH, or custom SimBrief performance data? Any help or pointers would be appreciated. Thanks!

    After understanding how the damn Reverse Polish Notation works, I managed to configure, using Mobiflight, the prop axis to include the prop feather once the detent is passed. You can program it several ways, even in a single action, but I prefer two actions to keep the expressions simpler. To get these values I used the Mobiflight app "Potentiometer RPN-Tool" which you can find at the link Prop lever: @ -3.2312 / 16383 + 0 max 16383 min (>K:PROP_PITCH_SET) Prop feather: @ 57000 > if{ -16383 (>K:PROP_PITCH1_SET) } The same goes for the flaps. I configured the Mix2 lever as if it were the flaps lever. The configuration is as follows: Flaps 0 > At the top of the lever Flaps 10 > a little lower (value 2000) Flaps 20 > At the detent (between 50000 - 53000) Flaps 30 > In its lowest position (beyond 57000) You can adjust these values to your liking. The four actions I created in Mobiflight are: Flaps up: @ 2000 < if{ (>K:FLAPS_UP) } Flaps 10: @ 2000 > if{ @ 45000 < if{ (>K:FLAPS_1) } } Flaps 20: @ 50000 > if{ @ 53000 < if{ (>K:FLAPS_2) } } Flaps 30: @ 57000 > if{ (>K:FLAPS_3) } For the power and condition lever , I’m still using the configuration I mentioned earlier in this post. I could do something similar to the flaps, but I prefer to keep the beta range configured this way to play with it during taxi. Hope this helps.

    I believe I’ve found the cause and it’s related to the issue I mentioned about the COM/MIC buttons in this other post. While I have COM2 and COM2/MIC selected, the GNS430 volumen knob works correctly. As soon as COM1/MIC is active, having COM2 active at the same time, it doesn’t work. In that case only the GNS530 volume works. Occasionally (not always, but it happens sometimes), when all four buttons are selected (COM1, COM1/MIC, COM2 and COM2/MIC), the ATIS selected on COM2 is heard duplicated, as if it were also tuned to COM1.

    Ok. I have already verified that by disabling the TCC on FSTraffic, MSFS uses the FS Traffic models. Working very well.

    Apologies for the thread resurrection but this appears to closely relate to the issue I am seeing. In the latest version in MSFS2024, I am seeing fuel burn numbers in the simulator approximately 50% lower than the Simbrief estimates. I am using the Just Flight 146 Simbrief profiles and I believe they are accurate, I believe the issue is on the MSFS side. Is anybody else experiencing this? Is it potentially a regression of an earlier fix, either with the product or MSFS2024 itself? I am using Kgs as the units, in case this has any bearing.

    I’m glad there are threads about this - i’m have the same issue with the Caravan Pro and the NDB 345.5 NWI - the KR ADF radio wont input the .5s - so annoying when trying to do NDB approaches at EGSH. I’m going to ask at my old flight training centre to see what they say.
