Any info on Analog Caravan updates?
-
I would love to see a full standalone version of your Caravan in MSFS'24 at some point, it would be perfect for the new skydiving functionality and bush flying!
-
@Outermarker Prepare to be pleasantly surprised...
-
@Black-Square I am also excited. I regularly fly all Black Square analog cockpit aircraft and would like to see them in MSFS2024. Is there any plan to update them for the new flightsim? Asobo stated that there is backward compatibility with MSFS2020 third party aircraft. Therefer will we be able to use the MSFS2020 versions in MSFS2024? Thanks in advance.

@Black-Square - that is fantastic news! The analog Caravan, Baron, and Bonanza are my regular fliers.

You can expect it within one week! I'm glad there are folks out there who are still excited about my Caravan, so thanks for asking.
Some of us didn't spend a few months hassling you about the AP wackiness just so we could stop flying it 😁

I had told Just Flight that I was going to release the update last week, but then we had a major hurricane in Florida, which necessitated some long days at the airport for me. Assuming I can dodge any more hurricanes and tornados this week, you will have your update.
-
@Black-Square Perfectly valid reason, I understand fully, and patiently await the update.
-
@Black-Square we’re happy to hear you’re doing okay! Hopefully didn’t have any major property damage on your end, I heard that not even your area could entirely escape it.
-
@Black-Square Hope all is well.. I feel for you all. Best wishes.

I updated the King Air before I left for some travel over the weekend, actually! I wasn't expecting to get to it so soon, but it just sort of happened one night while I was at my desk. I have submitted both updates to Just Flight, and we are just sorting through some logistics right now on both. Don't expect too much of these updates compared to the recent TBM update, as these are older aircraft not built on my current technology, but they should have some nice quality of life improvements.

So far I'm loving the 0.1.5 update. AP issues seem to be completely cleared up, I also noticed the AP VS setting matches up properly with the actual vertical speed reading from the instrument, whereas before there was a 300-400ft./min discrepancy between the two. Wasn't sure if the AP Baro setting now "works" or not (i.e. will changing it change the altitude the AP recognizes itself flying at?) ... Click sounds with the GTN750 are great. I noticed the Aux Fuel Pump now makes noise when engaged. One minor issue (not even sure if this has anything to do with the update) I noticed the altimeter backing placard suddenly just rotated like 45-degrees off center mid-flight (after having passed 10,000ft on a climb to 15,000 ft. It never returned to a straight position that flight anyway.... But, having hand-flown the plane and run it on AP for an hour just now, overall whatever other subtle changes you made make it seem to fly more predictably and steadily and really this is the best Cessna Caravan ever for any flightsim! Great work! Bravo!!
