MSFS 2024 - Pilatus PC24 Issues

The PC-24 jet by Microsoft/ Carenado has some major issues on my first flight. The most noticeable ones are I can’t disable the warning/ caution lights the throttle, flaps lever, and gear lever do not move, and the worst is I can’t get the gear to come up. Anyone else having these issues? This was the plane I was most hyped about.

All the same for me as you noted. Might want to go here to consolidate feedback: [MSFS2024] Pilatus PC-24 - Official Microsoft Flight Simulator / Polls & Feedback - Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums

■■■■… I was just frantically tryna get it up. Glad to see its yet another issue.

I purchased the simulator specifically for the PC-12 and PC-24. I’m having the same issues with the 24. Can’t reset the cautions/warnings. Landing gear will not retract. Makes it completely useless.

yep its broken and needs asap a patch.
stays grounded

This plane is being used a lot in career medivac missions, so basically half of them are broken. I wouldn’t complain too much, if I could at least raise the landing gear. You have to reach 40K plus altitude and it’s almost impossible with the gear down. So please fix ASAP.

I agree, but the FSR500 is much more polished and great in VR. Give it a spin, I think you will be delighted.

You cannot select planes in career missions unless you choose to freelance. I am currently doing regular career missions, and they assign broken planes. I just tried the turboprop Pilatus, and it is also not functioning properly—I cannot raise the landing gear using either the control or the lever inside the plane.

This is extremely frustrating. I was eagerly awaiting this game, especially since it offers actual missions, which I find much more engaging than regular flying in MSFS 2020. However, this release is riddled with bugs. They should have conducted thorough beta testing with community involvement to fix these issues before launch.

I was not aware of that. I’m a free flight guy. I recommend you take a flight in it in Free flight . Best to you in your career.

I’ve flew in a free flight enough in MSFS 2020. Finally something new, but half of it is broken…

They said that PC-24 would be fixed in patch 3 (which should be the one that just released about an hour ago). The airplane is still bugged. Its NOT fixed.

Yeah I saw a lack of release notes for the PC-24. Can’t try it for a few more days but on Reddit people were saying it works now?

Gear can now retract. I did a basic flight using hotas fine, but apparently many issues still with th cockpit controls.

Second this. I fly mostly via HOTAS and everything I have mapped there works as it should, even if the cockpit visuals don’t always reflect that.

Gear lever in the cockpit works and looks right. Parking brake lever and right throttle are among the things that are still wonky.

Just did a quick flight after patch #3 and the gear can come up and down. However the cockpit animations still do not work. No flap lever movement, throttle 2 does not move, and the yoke does not move for aileron

Hello, I have purchased the premium deluxe version for this plane and I just realized that what you are saying does not work… I hope it gets fixed soon!

I just used the PC-24 for a career mission and everything went fine until landing. I landed the plane but it will only go straight on the runway, it won’t turn although I can see the rudder moving as I press RT or LT. Does anyone know how to fix this? Seems like it’s a button you can press because it wasn’t doing this on take of, I was able to taxi it fine to the runway.

It happens to me when I skip to descent/landing, when I fly the whole thing I can steer correctly after landing (i’m on pc).

Dang it I was hoping that it was something I can press to fix but it turns out that it’s a bug… I ended up just driving on the grass and it gave me the option to skip to shutdown.

That’s what I do, too when I want to just skip :wink: it’s the only way tbh right now
