I have news from the future (Beta SU3).
The XBOX problem where the batteries couldn’t turn on has apparently been solved. I was able to power up the plane, even turning on all the engines.
The problem of not being able to remove the chokes, even after removing them manually, continues.
You can turn the state of the plane in EFB to ready to take of and the shocks will be removed from the aircraft.
It is a good to know workaround, but we all wait for a real fix.
does the brake issue persist if you enable ready to take off, then use the efb to return to cold and dark or gpu?
Returning to state c/d will lock your breaks again, state gpu or apu works.
I have issues with RNAV approaches. I don’t get the V/Dev bar or the proper Final, App Nav FMA. Instead, it gives me the standard ILS modes, which some runways don’t support.
I don’t have the shocks/brake issue anymore since SU2.
Starting C/D, i remove the shocks manually
Parking brake binded to a button and brakes binded to the slider on my TCA joystick.
Make sure you don’t have a button/slider binded by default to the brakes
SU3 1.5.4 this bug is still not fixed.
Also noticed the default point of view is not alligned with the HUD.
on xcloud not flyable because of engine shut down and black screens in cockpit when loading into free flight
when I click to the mfd to fill out flight plan, mfd screen and pedal movements stuck. Can’t use this plane anymore.
I found a trick for the issue with the chocks being stuck in Cold and Dark. Setting the LVAR INI_CHOCKS_ENABLED to 0 removes the (invisible) chocks.
If this works, you should receive a compensation from Microsoft or IniBuilds for making their product usable again.
Nice find.
And where might we find this LVAR? MS Store version.
via a tool like spad.next
Indeed, you’d need some software that allows you to set LVARs, like SPAD.next, AAO or similar.
I’ve been looking through the aircraft files and I’ve been drawn to everything related to the HUD, it’s currently useless for landing as the HUD always shows the same screen, BUT, in the HUD folder of the aircraft files you can see everything that could appear on the HUD, which makes me wonder what’s preventing it from working fully.
I wished this aircraft got a bit more love from Microsoft. While you can fix the invisible chocks with the developer options it’s harder to fix the engines to shut down on approach.
Tried now multiple times to land this fat beauty at SEQM but even with the ignition still enabled it’s hard to enjoy the approach because every single time the engines drop out and have to spool up again you drop so much and basically get into a stall.
Seems just a few minor fixes but as far as I’ve noticed they are not done yet in SU4 Beta.
Have anyone issue with fuel consumption don’t match with efb? The burnt fuel in the air plane system shows lets say 3000kg during flight however decreased fuel in fs2024 efb is 1000kg less than the airplane system.
Nope, fine here. Have you tried using one of the panel states in the EFB?
