    I'm curious to know how you've coded the storm scope to work. I have only seen about three strike detections for 1 storm in live wxr while I was observing dozens out the window. I've also flown past a number of storm cells that visually had lightning, but nothing on the scope. As it stands my storm scope is primarily serving as a spotty electrical system monitor for the aircraft, lol.

    Nick, I tried the following as you suggested. Switched ON Set SIMCONNECT:GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1 to 1 ;Turns the Left Generator switch to the ON position Delay execution for 500 ms ;Pause execution momentarily to see each action happen Set LVAR:var GeneratorTrip L to 0 This functionally worked, but it doesn't display the switch being put up into the Reset position, and then back to the On position. What I ended up doing was the following. It puts the switch into the on position, momentarily into the Reset position, then "visually" back to the on position. Removing the delays after setting LVAR:var GeneratorReset L to 0 prevents me from "seeing" the switch actually turn back off and then back on. The first Set SIMCONNECT:GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1 to 1 leaves the switch in the off position for some reason (I don't know why), but the second Set SIMCONNECT:GENERAL ENG MASTER ALTERNATOR:1 to 1 moves it back to the on position as desired. Then the Set LVAR:var GeneratorTrip L to 0 tells the system that the reset was done. I published a snippet online in SPAD for just this switch, so anybody else that ran into this issue can use this solution. I'm glad that I was finally able to get this working. Thanks for your help.

    @SkipperMacz. That i a brilliant suggestion SkipperMacz. I just reconfigured my Master Alt button in the settings (see screen shot) and it works. Thank you so much, you just made my day. [image: bc9492af-2876-43a9-83dc-e28edebd3a79.png]

    @Black-Square I wish I had some real insight for you, but I don't. I own all of your planes except the Velocity. From the Dukes onward, I've used Axis and Ohs for control bindings, and it's always been a crap shoot. I always start with default MSFS events and vars to keep it as simple as possible. But every plane inevitably has some that don't work the way they should (or at least the way I expect), and that's the point where I dig into the assignments listed in the manual. For any of those that don't work, I use the dev menu behaviors tool, and the Axis and Ohs "watch simulator events" dialog. But they both have their own failings: the behaviors tool doesn't always list bindings, so I have to inspect the code displayed and try to glean what I can do from that. And the simulator events dialog sometimes displays native events that are being triggered by code -- and often I can't bind those events directly and the dialog doesn't indicate what to use. There are a couple other tricks I use in Axis and Ohs, and I'm always learning. For example, just a couple days ago, I discovered I can use to program virtual button presses on an axis I create (for the Just Flight F28, where the fuel levers are seemingly not on an axis). Needless to say, due to the trial-and-error nature of this process, it sometimes takes a couple hours for me to bind a single plane, but it'd be awesome if I could just import an already existing control profile and have most of the assignments work out of the box. Usually I start by binding just enough to get into the air, fly until I want to switch to autopilot, and then do the rest while the plane hums along happily on its own lol

    Sorry - been travelling (for real as opposed to in sim) and just saw this. Appreciated ... I wondered if it was something like this I was missing :). I will check it out soon now that I am finally back in town for a good while.

    @Black-Square Does anyone know what the best settings are to mitigate this jittering effect? It seems to me that it shows up using TAA, and DLSS almost completely eliminates it, but using that results in horrible ghosting on glass cockpit displays for other planes. I suppose I can swap AA type for Commander only, but obviously a one size fits all solution would be great.

    @Black-Square Nick, you told me to reach out to you via the support system a few times, and then confirmed that you received my email, but I've never received a response from you. This goes all the way back to Starship's release. I'd be happy to offer you any references/insight/testing you may need, in addition to access to my 840, if you'd like. If you're considering an MT 5 bladed propeller option, my airplane has them.

    That's a shame as another dev, Virtualcol is planning a more basic, not study-level HS748.

    Hi, well this is very embarrassing i was doing a flight in a different aircraft and the trim was constantly trimming forward and back like in the F70/ F100 and i thought uh oh! After reading and checking on this issue it seems that one of the recent sim updates has messed up a lot of my settings (AI Auto trim was set to on), after turning this off the issue seems to have gone, well for this one now to figure out what it's done to all my TOBII settings. My sincere apologies for this.

    @Black-Square does using the native load manager have negative effects? Should we use the samevweightscas we use in your load manager? Or only one lbs?

    @Black-Square Just go be sure I am understanding correctly, it is an intended behavior for it to be sitting bellow 25 volts with nothing on other than the battery? I just turned my game on to be sure and from cold and dark with only the battery switch on I get about 24.8 volts. I only ask because in the check lists it says to ensure the voltmeter is above 25 volts!

    @Woolies It's a real shame, isn't it? It's been like that since the debut of MSFS 2020.
