Boom XB-1 Feedback and poll

Hi there - drag chute is not modeled.

It is INOP, probably as a replacement you have very unrealistic brakes that will stop the XB1 on a dime.
I pretend that’s the drag chute… otherwise the brake pads would be completely on fire.

Where is the transponder?

What is the DAS Switch?

How do we fly the climb?

How do we fly the actual MACH test phase?

How do we fly the descent and approach?

I also do not see the same page layout in my IFDs like it is shown in the manual, I mean for instance no NAV1 or NAV2 radio frequency boxes.

Generator is constantely triggerin ON and OFF when the engine 1 is in stable IDLE and eng 2 and 3 are starting.

There is Hydraulic Pressure on System 1 (FLT), when engine is not running. According to manual, BackUp Pump is for System 2 (UTIL) only.

Fire Loop A B Test Switch does nothing.

Bleed Switch seems to have no influence on operation of cabin pressurization. Still is pressurized, with bleed off.

Yellow Gear Door Open lights are not always on, when Gear is extended.

Cant close GAPS in Flightplan in FMS FPLN Page.

Oxygen Switches are not switchable. Breakers are not simulated.

This entire Addon is still disappointing, because of small bugs and missing information on how to fly this correctly.

Has anyone figured out how to get rid of the BINGO alert? Even after I input a number, it still sticks around.

EDIT: It seems to go away once you start to taxi. Not sure if that’s a bug or an intentional feature. Also, does anyone know whether this plane has a beacon light in real life?
