@Voice-of-Reason said in First impressions from a 1000+ hour Caravan driver.: @jmarkows Don't tempt him. Black Square NB-36H... Now that would be FUN. But Nick would probably swim the Atlantic just to clip me round the head for even suggesting it.

This is intended as a usability feature, so unfortunately, the only way to disable it is to disable tooltips in MSFS settings. We'll add this to our internal feature request tracker to see if there are any changes we can make to this tooltip in a future update. Mark - Just Flight

It also causes you to maintain rudder input at cruising speed, where the plane normally is balanced out. But if you try to get the same result with the prop_moment scalar, you'll need higher settings of around 15, which makes the plane instabile on the yaw axis, noticable when you turn the AP on. That's why i was trying a mix of both settings and increased P-factor.

@scottb No - but if you need Support for a Just Flight or Just Trains product, your best bet is always to contact their support. See: https://www.justflight.com/support

@Black-Square it is not a major issue. At least I now know it isn’t a bug. The overall quality of your caravan is exceptional. At least I know now that there are no exterior sounds on the doors. If they could be added then that would add to the immersion..but equally I could easily live without them.

I tried to do some troubleshooting on my own, but the SDK and selection of .flt files is nebulous enough that one doesn't stand out at me. There's finalwater.flt, that doesn't seem like it, runwaywater.flt, which is the only other water one I suppose. Why is there no apronwater if you can spawn on the water C&D? I tried loading in with all of the .flt files removed from the directory in the hopes that I could force the sim to generate one (or save my own per the SDK); I never figured out how to save the .flt file while loaded into the plane to see which it spits out. Doing the above procedure without any .flt files present in the directory does mitigate the engine damage to a single percent, though, if that tells you anything.

Please no. It might be funny for a short time but will become a anoyance on long flights. Or at least make it optional like in the LearJet 35a. You can turn it off within the tablet. I would turn it off immediately!

@kityatyi said in Update is out: Also, I thought we'd get visible pax Sorry to disappoint, but there are several threads on this forum about the functionality that was removed in MSFS 2024 that led me to the difficult decision not to include passenger models in my aircraft. Luckily, one of my industrious users has created a mod, which serves as a great option for those of us who don't want to fly with an empty cabin.

@Rich Thanks, Rich!

Nothing should have changed in that department, and I haven't seen that behavior myself, however, the MSFS 2024 payload and pilot entering/exiting the aircraft is very poorly implemented in my estimation. There are at least a few topics on the developer support forum that pertain to this kind of issue.

Nothing should have changed in that department. I've seen it working for me recently, but the Caravan's gear being bouncy sometimes makes it challenging to engage beta on unimproved surfaces. There's a note about this in the manual's FAQ, recommending unrestricted beta mode for bush flying.

Thanks Nick. Seems you may be right. I loaded up the 2024 version to use the 24hr historical weather, and tested it a little further. For reference it was at CYWL in the early hours just before sunrise yesterday (though dev mode might allow you to force icing). This time, I ran the right prop heat. Same result. Both props picked up speed. So a single system for now. The failures tab has only a single entry for "prop deice" so that is a clue too. Perhaps you ran into that when programming the aircraft. I also tried failing it, for science. To my surprise, the gauge still registered current and the system still worked - props picked up RPM. So that may be another one to check as part of the same investigation. A somewhat unimportant detail not to lose sleep over, but I can imagine that it'll bug you now you know it's there (sorry) Thanks, Martyn

Hi Martyn, Thanks for your answer, First things first, of course ! Best, Adrien.

right now I am on a trip from the caribic, via south America up to Mexico. Did some flights in Hawaii, Alps and central Europe

Simply the most interesting turboprop airliner ever!! Justflight ought to build it!! Please, e-mail me when it is released!! lol

Thank you for the feedback. I have logged this with our artwork team to investigate ahead of the next update to the Vulcan. Mark - Just Flight

We're not aware of any issues with updating the navdata in the 146, and there haven't been any changes to the navdata format or logic on our side in the last month. Our recommendation would be to double-check that you have the 146 Professional and Navigraph Hub fully updated to their latest versions, as there were some changes to the navdata format/logic in some recent updates to both products that could cause issues if one or both products are a few versions out of date. If you then continue to have difficulties installing the 2603 navdata, we would recommend uninstalling a reintalling both the 146 Professional and the Navigraph Hub. Mark - Just Flight

Thanks for the feedback. This isn't something we've seen reported elsewhere with the SU5 Beta, but we have logged it as something to keep an eye out for once SU5 fully releases. Mark - Just Flight
