It does. The menu looks fine in the SU1 Beta. It also fixed the dim GPS / autopilot etc. screens in other FS2020 aircraft.

Is this plane working properly in FS2024? I know about the Jester menu issue, which has been fixed in SU1 but I have problem with the cockpit where some switches/rotaries don’t move. The Master Test switch is one example. I can hear the clicking sound when I click on it, but the switch remains in place. The light above it illuminates when I switch between various tests, so it does work in the background. Obviously when the switch does not rotate it’s impossible to tell what test is currently selected.

IFE updated Tomcat last Friday. Unfortunately, Heatblur store still shows the old version 1.0.7.

IFE explained it on their Discord. While most stores have an automated ingestion process, someone at Heatblur must manually upload it to their server, which might not be immediately on a weekend. Should be there soon. I’m waiting too. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Any chance you could send me an invite to their Discord, please? For some weird reason they don’t have it on their website, only FB profile.

Here’s IFE’s:

And here is Heatblur’s, for good measure:

Thx but both seem to be expired or are invalid for other reason.

Hi all,

I’m stuck in the F-14A checklist because I can’t select the Stick SW on the Master Test. Please see this video. It skips right over it. I’m on MSFS 2020 on Xbox X using a controller.

Can’t say I’ve seen that before. Are you able to try plugging in a mouse to see if it works with that? As an alternative solution you could do the at sea checklist, it’s shorter and skips that test anyway.

Tried it myself on PC with the latest version of the F-14. It definitely skips that item on the dial.

Thanks for confirming. At least I’m not crazy. :zany_face:

I posted this issue on the Heatblur Discord, but it hasn’t gotten much attention in the past couple days.

I should look to see if there is an e-mail address for support.

How do you seat on the RIO/rear seat and operate the instruments without interfere with the front seat?

Edit: assigning “toggle copilot view” worked.
