Anyone gotten the landing and taxi lights on the new 2024 Hondajet to work? As you can see in the screenshot they are selected OFF however they are indeed ON.

I have had them all on and off, can’t reproduce.

Off

What I did see was what looked like a luggage compartment with a light on

If you open it, it has a white line around the compartment edge which makes it seem illuminated at night and day.

thanks for trying. weird that our external light behaviors are so different. i’ll see if i can reproduce, that was my first flight

Yeah, wierd. This is my first time, only bought it today. Did you find it underpowered in the climb?

initially, but eventually i was climbing around 2500fpm up to fl200 (full throttle). and i was pretty heavy

Lucky, I was empty and still sluggish and had to put in full throtle in climb otherwise I was about to pop into stall! FL320
