    My great uncle flew around the world with Bob Reiss in N9675R, a converted A36 Bonanza with an Allison B17. In the 1994 trip they had an engineering firm plan out and engineer 100 gallon tip tanks (670lbs). After installation it was clear that even though in flight the bending moments margin would be adequate (although reduced), the taxiing was the largest issue with higher accelerations in the Z+ and Z- directions resulting in a limitations that only 55 gallons could be carried. So the stock bonanza can, if begrudgingly, carry 55 gallons on the tips. In his recollections of the time, he stated that it was common in the more remote areas to take off about 50% over MGW when fully loaded with fuel compared to a stock Bonanza. He would say that it flew, it just had to get going much faster to do it.

    I do believe you've converged on my would-be answer here. I will reduce the severity of the experimental message next time I update Starship. I will probably leave it in place for some scenarios, however. They all have slightly different wording, which would have helped me troubleshoot things, but it seems that the release of this feature went relatively smoothly. Thanks for letting me know how you're using it

    @goose-28 Have you read in the manual about using the native 2024 package reorder tool? That should be able to accomplish this by moving Real Taxiway's priority below the handcrafted airports. I configured the package so this should happen by default, but there's a reason the package reorder tool is under the "experimental" options, I guess.

    No issues on my end, make sure you have the correct CDI source on the 750?... Very common mistake that I've seen in training irl.

    said in KA350 unknown LVars and events collection thread: Hi folks, Did somebody manage to find the variable for the wipers ? I'm using a stream deck plus with pilotsdeck plugin and managed to edit a profil with everything i want, except the wipers. Could be very useful when you break out of the clouds during low ifr approach and don't have the time to switch to the overhead view... Whaaooo. That was quite difficult but i finally found it !! After a deep dive inside the Analogkingair.xml, i found this : <CIRCUIT_ID_WIPERS>54</CIRCUIT_ID_WIPERS> <CIRCUIT_ID_PARK>55</CIRCUIT_ID_PARK> So i tried : (A:CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:54, bool) and it works (but only for slow speed). (A:CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:55, bool) is to set the wipers to park position.

    Thanks, "SynchFplWithFsATC = 0" did the trick. Just hoped to read this information a few months earlier ...

    Ah, I forgot about that. Have FSUIPC send >H:MFD_Joystick_Center after all the other events. If it doesn't work, there see if there is a way to add a tiny delay (like 50ms) between the directional event, and the center event.

    @dave_pilot I have been flight simming since FS9 too and have avoided trying new experimental AI features for the same reason. Good luck

    Hi @meh1951. That worked! I had the event with the "PROP PITCH DECR" actions and it put the prop lever in the feather position, but didn't always feather. This worked right off the bat. Thanks.

    If it's only happening with the #1 condition lever, then I would further suspect a control binding issue. I know you said you already looked, so I apologize for the emphasis, but it sounds like a control axis overriding your mouse action to me.

    I support this! A decent turbine Twin is the one thing missing in MSFS 2024. The turbine Duke is too small for many missions and the Starship is nice but too niche to play pretend flying Doctor in the Australian Outback.
