Brief description of the issue:
Cockpit displays of the Darkstar aircraft are blank after hitting âReady To Flyâ and loaded into the flight. First started happening after switching the flight model to Modern and reinstalling the Maverick DLC (this was to solve the uncontrollable flight characteristics issue). Now continues to happen after switching back to Legacy flight model and reinstalling the DLC again.
Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:

I donât use it now after going through the control issues with Darkstar. I switched back to it just to see if it would have any effect on my issue which it doesnât.
Do you have the pre-flight cinematic turned off? You have a inside view of the plane before pressing the ready to fly button. I think mine is an outside view, and I never have this problem, so try that.
I had this same problem with blank control screens and wondered if this was something to do with the avionics master switch. Looked up the keyboard activation for toggling âavionics masterâ which is âpage upâ on the keyboard and momentarily turned on the screens but as soon as I released the page up button avionics screens turned offâŠ
My solution: I have a spare toggle button on my VRinsight switch panel but I presume any keypad or button would do and I programmed that to turn the master avionics switch and it worked.
Note: I had the same problem with the new Halo Pelican and this also is working now.
I started having this problem in all aircraft a few days ago and couldnât figure out what was going on, as Iâd never experienced it before. Based on your post, I tracked down the cause: my Honeycomb Bravoâs default bindings in-sim have one of the rocker switches set to âAvionics Masterâ, and with the switch in the up position, it was turning off the avionics. Flipped the switch and all works fine. I think sometimes after sim updates, controllers default to the default profiles, causing issues like this.
Well, after posting this I saw the same issue with the Caravan for the first time also, so I made a new profile for the Bravo and deleted everything, and then both aircraft displays worked. So itâs the Avionics Master switch thatâs doing it eh, that makes sense and that button in the Pelican did look weird.
I donât use the switchâs on my Bravo for much of anything as I have other panels for things like that, and this is the first time this has happened, plus I donât use the default profile, but I also havenât bothered to change the switchâs assignments on it either. Did they reverse the binding for the switch?
Thanks for your help getting to the bottom of this guys.
Well done Greg
I hadnât made the connection between the Honeycomb Bravo and this current issue, I also have the Honeycomb Bravo but never dedicated a rocker switch to the Avionics Master. Will check this out tonight and remember to check this in future, I also noticed a similar issue with one or two of the generic aircraft with flat screensâŠyou would you credit it!
Guys, anyone found a solution?
I deleted everything from my community folder and even done what [TermedCoyote18] suggested and set every control to default still no screens at all.
Guys I found a solution. Probably it is very isolated problem but you can try. When I was browsing my addons I saw Maveric to be partially installed only. I tried to delete it and download it again which stopped at some %, it stuck on unpacking one DLL, I searched for that particular DLL and just deleted it, then I gave it another try to finish the update on the DLC and now I have screens and everything is working fine.
Do you have the same issue if you follow the OPâs steps to reproduce it?
I have the same issue with darkstar. The screens are blank.
Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
Checked all the related buttons on the cockpit, everything is ok but the screens + machmeter are off.
Xbox series X, peripheral thrustmaster hotas and keyboard and mouse.
The problem once sorted after went to main menu and start a new flight but it came back again.
If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:
I got the Xbox as a present. It was unopened; i.e. never previously used. After signing in, the first game to be installed was this one. I also got a Thrustmaster Hotas controller. I havenât created any custom profiles nor have installed any addons.
In the Darkstar only, the avionics donât turn on. Other than that, everything else works (except that I keep hitting the ground).
