@Derek Thank you for the pointer. Fingers crossed I think I resolved it.

Hello Derek, Thank you for your answers. So, if I understand correctly, it is not really possible to add a new database year. You can only switch between the existing databases.

I use the GN430 with the F28-4000 and the Skyhawk 152 steam-gauge flying in the USA for low altitude IFR (US certified IFR pilot) and flight planning is done with a I tablet running WingXPro, that gives you all that is needed: including STARS, approach plates etc, then use that to setup the GPS unit. Also if VORs are not active (using MSFS2020) then use the GPS with the OBS option.

Hi, I'm the developer of the KLN-90B. The real unit does not calculate a VNAV path and therefore does not output any sort of VNAV information to other avionics or to the autopilot. You would need to fly those approaches with CDFA manually. The manual of the KLN mentions that the database only contains approaches that the KLN is capable of flying. However, a pilot who still uses the KLN in the real world, showed me, that the database actually contains pretty much all RNAV approaches, even those that the KLN would not be legally allowed. Therefore, there is now hardly any filtering for the approaches anymore. Handy for us sim pilots... If you are interested in discussing the KLN capabilities further, there is a link to the Discord server on the Github page of the KLN-90B. I only check the JF forums occasionally.

I haven't seen any reports like this with any of my aircraft, but the only thing that should affect the aircraft like this is obviously the weight and balance. I suspect you had an enormous baggage payload, which was recalled when the aircraft loaded. Can you share a screenshot of the tablet's payload page when the aircraft loads? Just resetting it once, and ensuring the state was properly saved should spare you the trouble in the future.

I opened a ticket with SI on this also. For me, it wasn't doing this a couple weeks or so ago and doesn't do it when the SI app is closed. Must be they are turning com1 back on in MSFS due to tickets with people that don't know how it works. X-Plane 12 works perfectly, I can switch mics and turn off radio receivers without the com1 receiver coming back on after a few seconds with the SI app connected.

Hi . Is there any news on this ? Thor H

@MD82 said in Perfection defines the BS Starship: @alanfernandes said in Perfection defines the BS Starship: Hi! You can find the cruise performance tables in the official Pilot's Operating Manual for the Starship. Here's the link: https://rps3.com/Files/Starship/Flight%20Deck%20Publications/Starship%20Pilot's%20Operating%20Manual.pdf It includes all the power setting data and performance charts you're looking for. Hope this helps! Cheers. Those I have and use since day 1. I was merely asking because your picture is in digital format. I actually use the manual along with AI to interpolate and calculate the numbers. Those results you saw were generated by the AI, and they line up perfectly with the manual.

Just a personal observation on this. When i bought the baron and bonanza packages and did my first flights. The same happened to me. What i noticed was that on my yoke profile in controll settings, i had "set nosewheel limit" mapped for the piaggio 180 on a button. Maby i pressed that in flight. After i removed it on a new profile i never had this issue ever again. I only had the locked steering issue on day 1 of owning these planes and it has never happened again since. This is on msfs 2020. Maby it helps.

The new weather radar API applies only to WASM based instruments, so unfortunately not right now. Sorry to disappoint.

It's simply the difference between ISA and OAT. You will come up with either a + or a - difference from ISA. With that you enter the tables. Say you're at FL370. Either the POH (ISA Power setting table) or the aircraft will tell you that ISA is -57°C. Now check you're OAT (IOAT). If your OAT is -47°C, then you're at ISA+10 (10°C warmer). Caution against comparing IOAT value on the instrument against the table value. This value changes with speed, and as your power setting is not set yet, the difference in values might differ as you try to set the power setting.

@AvApollo On the 750, I clicked from GPS to VLOC (not at the sim, but I am thinking that is what I did.

@hunterdouglas You make some good suggestions. But.... not sure there is much we can do to satisfy these requests. A fleet of GA aircraft 'in a box' (as we did with the old PlusPaks) is feasible. However, standards are a LOT higher than in PlusPak days and, because there are a lot of freeware AI aircraft about, I am not sure we would be able to make much of a commercial success of this one - certainly not enough to justify costs even without liveries. More importantly, any such pack would need to function 'in game', rather than just provide aircraft. We'd need it to work (and be bought by) a decent number of ordinary users - not just DIYers (see below). Creating an airport modifying tool is not something we'd really want to get into. It's not our bag and we generally leave tools development to third party devs (see, for example, Real Taxiways from Black Square). Over the (many) years we have been doing Traffic we have seen that buyers tend to fall into three categories: Flyers - want a product that adds realistic commercial traffic to the sim so they are not flying in empty skies and don't see United Airlines 737s at Glasgow. Spotters - like to watch the 'action' happening around airports. We even built a 'Spotty' tool to satisfy this need in a previous incarnation. Suffice to say we haven't included Spotty in any subsequent version. Tinkerers - people who like to repaint aircraft, add missing planes and schedules or create flight plans from the past or in more obsure locations. The vast majority of buyers of FS200X/FSX/P3D/MSFS versions fall into the first category. We did find a higher number of Tinkerers for the X-Plane version, which is probably a function of the sim itself. X-Plane has encouraged tinkering for many years with things like Planemaker and flying on Mars. However, even 'over there' the majority of users still seem to be Flyers. What this means, of course, is that we need the software to appeal to the majority of users and that's where a big chunk of the compromise comes in. It also means that any future developments and updates after initial release are usually restricted to more planes, new liveries and updated schedules. Beyond that, we are constrained by the commercial realities of dev cost vs sales potential. So, while we dso our best to make it possible to modify and customise the Traffic offering, it's not a core part of the add-on.

it's so annoying and for 30 dollars it should be fixed at least

Did anyone make a server? If not, i’ll be happy to make one and send a link…lmk

@Black-Square something like euro truck sim when drivers sleepy maybe? If not, then perhaps loss of controls to a greater degree?
