Separated ADIRUs are now implemented in the development version. This feature is explained in detail with a new dedicated episode of our Developer Series, recorded by the developer!
We are happy to introduce our A320neo Pilot Briefing for reference and use with our A32NX addon. It provides an overview of most A320neo systems with a clickable flight deck for an interactive experience learning about the systems onboard.
In episode 7 of In The Hangar, we covered dynamic system sounds, such as hydraulics.
We have implemented dynamic yellow electric pump sounds that react to load and PTU sounds that trigger in the right conditions. Hear it now in the development version!
Here is an early preview of the upcoming VNAV implementation with a special feature: CDA mode, featuring FLAP1 and FLAP2 pseudo-waypoints. This functionality is only available on the Honeywell FMS, and therefore exclusive to the A32NX!
We have published a fix for our development version to resolve flight planning issues which came with Sim Update 7. We apologise for the inconvenience as this slipped through our testing process. We will amend our methodology to catch more issues like this in the future before updates roll out.
Use of DirectX11 is still recommended for best performance due to an issue with some glass cockpit technologies in the DX12 version of the simulator. This is not an FBW issue and we cannot address it for now - please keep in mind DX12 is officially a “beta feature” and thus should not be used unless you know what you are doing.
For stable version: v0.7.3 is being prepared and will be released later.
we have released our custom flight management system into our development version! This marks the end of testing cFMS in our experimental branch which will be on hold until the next feature testing cycle begins.
Busy airspace? Controller wants you to hold? Not a problem anymore. Procedure and manual holds will soon be fully supported with extremely accurate path predictions and guidance behaviour.
We have recently improved the A32NX flight model and finalized our weight and balance loading integration available on the development version. Please note:
We have disabled the MSFS fuel and weights UI to prevent issues.
Use the EFB for fueling and the AOC W/B Page on the MCDU for payload.
For a complete guide please see the links below and note changes to our airframe.
Our upcoming TCAS implementation for the development version features the new FD/AP TCAS guidance mode (also known as Auto TCAS) for automatically responding to resolution advisories (work in progress).
Current limitations in MSFS prevents us from properly implementing realistic nose wheel steering. However, our stubborn developers have decided to do it anyways!
Nose wheel steering will soon be integrated in the hydraulic system, and realistic tiller handle + rudder steering will require some taxi practice!
While some inevitable bugs will remain until a fix, we hope you’ll enjoy this new addition! (Coming Soon).
We’ve got an exciting upcoming feature to showcase: remote MCDU and printer! Take your home simulation experience to the next level - you might need some extra paper!
We have made the experimental version available again to test our upcoming LNAV update, which brings the following new features:
Support for more leg types (CA (partially), CF, CR, DF, HX (partially), IF)
Better turn prediction algorithm with support for overfly, course capture, path capture, direct turn, reverse turn, reversions and more
Ability to mark waypoints as overfly in the F-PLN page
Realistic ND rendering based on IRL hardware and software architecture
Fixes for performance issues over long flights
This version also comes with the long-awaited TCAS system.
The Experimental version allows you to test the aforementioned features and provide feedback to help us fix problems and improve the aircraft. It is thus not meant for normal simulation, including online flying. Keep in mind that we do not support experimental builds and that while we have done our best to eliminate any bugs, you may still run into issues while using them.
We have merged a major improvement to our FBW, autopilot and autothrust implementations into the development and experimental versions.
We now highly recommend using a pitch axis sensitivity setting of -30% to better simulate the increased force you need to push or pull the real sidestick in the aircraft. (Hardware dependent - results may vary).
Support for procedures containing DME arcs has been long requested. We have now added this functionality to the experimental version as part of our updated LNAV. Check it out in action in this video:
