Navigraph AIRAC updates on Xbox

[Mark]

@slbruce With the Version 2 release of the 146 Professional, it will ship with its own custom Navdata from the ARINC 2301 cycle. At the moment, this is not currently updatable on Xbox as it requires the Navigraph Hub app to update.

We are, however, working with Navigraph to find a solution using their latest API.

We have run extensive testing with the ARINC 2301 cycle and we noticed very few issues when entering flight plans, so although the Navdata is old, we are confident that is should still be suitable for the majority of flights.

@Mark Thanks for the reply. I hope this comes soon

[slbruce]

Are there any updates to the ability to update the AIRAC on Xbox?

[Mark]

We don't have an update to share on this at the moment. As soon as we have a solution developed we will be sure to include it in an update to the 146 Professional and add it to the changelog.

Hi

Sorry to be a nag but wondering if there is any movement on this?

[Mark]

We have nothing further to share at the moment as our development team is fully focused on other projects. We will be revisiting the 146 Professional and UNS-1 FMS after the RJ Professional release so we should be able to investigate this further then.

Ok. Just to be clear - I love this aircraft and this is the one thing that is stopping it from being perfect in my view

Keep up the good work!

Hi.
PMDG and Inibuilds have released aircraft that can be updated on the Xbox. Are there still plans to add this to the 146 as well?

[Mark]

It is still on our radar as something we would like to support, however, it's in the midst of an ever-growing feature request list, so it's difficult to give any clear timeframe for when we may get around to implementing this. If there is an update on this, we will be sure to share it.

@Mark Do we have a solution for updating the UNS-1 database yet? It's getting really complicated to keep flying the aircraft this way.

[Mark]

We don't have anything further to share on this at the moment. All of our development resources continue to be taken up by a mixture of converting our MSFS 2020 products into MSFS 2024 native products, as well as working on our upcoming products.

Once we have all of our MSFS 2024 native product updates released and the upcoming new product release behind us, we can then start to look through the feature request lists of our existing products and make a plan of action for what features we can look to add to our products in future updates.

Is this the same for the RJ? I’m not seeing any approach or arrival procedures for Aspen.

Yes, it's not currently possible to update the navdata in any of our products on Xbox. The FMS will use the default navdata that comes with the product (2401 for the latest version of the RJ, and 2301 for the latest version of the 146).

I've just checked Aspen (KASE) on my end, and I am seeing the approach procedure listed with the default 2401 navdata. If you're not seeing anything listed, I would recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the RJ just to make sure everything has installed correctly.
