    @Guilepilote issue is you need the data from the GTN /GNS. With the PMS and WT I could see that but with the TDS? I don’t know.

    @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.

    Did some flying today flying in South Africa in the Commander with twin MX 170B and the RNAV 511, weather was LIVE and clear and fine. First leg was FAPA to FAEL (57nm) and set the 'ELV' VOR as my NAV1 to get me to FAEL. I initially climbed to about 2000ft and the NAV dropped once, understandable as quite low altitude tbf. I then continued climbing to 6000ft and during cruise it dropped again, cant remember exactly but 30nm out. It then also dropped NAV about 15nm out with me at 6000ft with clean line of sight which seems unlikely that it would be a poor signal? I also had NAV2 tuned the same and the needle seemed rock solid and not showing signs of signal loss. Second leg was from FAEL to FAUG using the same VOR for outbound. Weirdly as I climbed out it dropped again at about 15nm on the outbound. In other legs I used the RNAV 511 and this 'holds' signal all the time but it does seem to lose signal SOFT lock and then CAP again and stays in NAV. So still I guess losing signal briefly but does its best to recapture and then proceed. Conclusion, not really sure but the degradation does seem to either be over sensitive or there is some other factor at play. I really couldn't see a reason for losing signal and NAV at about 15nm in and out at decent altitude and clear line of sight. Apart from that it was 6hrs of bliss touring around South Africa in the 114 ... such a great aircraft.

    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.

    @NixonRedgrave SU6 now installed as live and BATC still working just fine with EGHH Tower on Comm 1 and EGHH ATIS on Comm 2. So doesn't seem to be a general issue. Must be something in your install of MSFS or the 114 that is causing you the issue? Hope you resolve soon. [image: a96a693b-f533-4456-9491-0a3232341499.png]

    I suspect the engines might be damaged, possibly due to a hot start - I had similar symptoms after trying the CTRL E MSFS auto-start command when I was in a hurry testing a few things quite a while back. You can check and repair the engines via the menu system.

    Sometimes we miss the most glaringly obvious things while working on the minutia, don't we? Fixed for the next update. Thanks

    @BigRigDriver Since the Duke uses all third party avionics (except the KNS-81), flight plan importing and editing is up to the capabilities of whichever GPS you have installed and intend to use. However, I believe all the available options support importing Navigraph flight plans. Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with!

    Just to follow up on the EDM-800 DIF temp, did a couple tests. At idle, DIF read 18F. When converted, it incorrectly displayed 10C (should be -8C). Cylinder readings, in F, across the 6 for EGT/CHT were: 444/310, 463/322, 440/308, 474/329, 453/315, 468/325. At around 1000 rpm, DIF read 22F, converted to 12C (should be -6C). Cylinders read: 531/234, 557/243, 528/233, 571/248, 542/238, 561/244. Another note I had was that when rapidly shifting the throttle, the DIF temp seemed to settle much much faster than the EGT/CHT temps were moving, in that the DIF temp was stable while the EGT/CHT temps were still moving fairly rapidly more than approx. 10 deg. Not sure I'd expect the DIF stability when temps are moving so quickly. Hope this helps!

    @jmarkows no apology necessary. I'll have to study your program lines carefully, although I'm tempted to go the Mobiflight direction... @fredgarven thanks for this! I've downloaded your project and 'hey presto' I have full control of the cowl flaps ... and an awful lot of other things! Its good to see how a MF 'project' is formed and now I need to decide if I want to attempt to move over completely from FS24's clunky system. I might need to read the manual first though as those lines of code are seriously technical looking for an old geezer like myself lol.
