ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Dear Team,
I am facing reoccuring problem with Asobo 737 MAX 8. Description of the issue: 737 looses MAP capability on MFD during longer flights. The PLN screen shows everything that should be there (including descent deviation), the only missing element is lack of magenta plotted course and waypoints. Instead of waypoints, yellow label MAP is presented. At the same time, INIT > POS menu on page 2 shows different positions between IRS and GPS. Upon landing and turning both IRS knobs OFF and back to NAV caused both MFD’s (PF and PM) to become unavailable in MAP mode. Turning power off in the plane did not reset status, FCU keeps all the previously programmed details (inluding invalid position).
Let me know if I any additional details might be required.
Kind regards, Z
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)? Each time I do a longer flight (>3h)
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
-
Select Boeing 737 MAX 8 in free flight mode
-
After ~3h of flight, left PFD in MAP mode will loose magenta path line and show yellow MAP label
-
Ater landing, cycling IRS OFF and ON causes both MFD’s to become unavailable in MAP mode and FCU shows invalid coordinates.
YOUR SETTINGS
Base PS5, Digital Deluxe version MSFS2024, controls via Dualsense joypad, Logitech MX Master3S mouse and MX Keys Mini keyboard.
MEDIA
Left MFD went off, showing only “MAP” in MAP mode, right MFD worked corectly in all modes:
IRS status mid flight:
FCU status mid flight. Coordinates on PF FCU and PM FCU are identical. Right MFD works in MAP mode, left one shows only yellow MAP (this is close up on FCU’s, screenshot taken at the same time first screenshot above was taken).
Status after landing and cycling IRS OFF and back to NAV. The position between L and R IRS/GPS is no longer coherent, right MFD stopped working in MAP mode as well:
Edit: Different flight, same behavior. At around 3h into the flight, IRS R and GPS L positions became frozen, causing left MFD to stop working in MAP mode. Video demonstrates position readings frozen, MFD showing yellow [MAP] and flight time.
