Radios aren’t working at all. Even with avionics switch on and gps initialized, I can’t communicate with ATC. Aside from that, other minor issues such as missing text in magnetos/starter switch and no voltage in the display, only temps.
Also I can’t hear the fuel pump.

  • the comms panel says the electrical system must be turned on to use the radio,
  • suffers from the same windshield glare and prop shadow bug than most other a/c in 2024
  • some tooltips not working, like engine controls
  • the lights dont seem to be working or at least are very difficult to see

used DV20 in fs2020 with flightmodel mod. Seems to me very realistic.
Mod does not work in fs2024.
fs2024:

  • stall speeds are way too low
  • flap drag coefficient seems to low
  • glide ratio too high

DV20 canopy is not transparent but shows intense scattering of sunlight.

Can confirm the transparency issue which is especially pronounced when the sun is low. Prevents enjoying the outside and therefore is a no go.

Also the fuel pressure light is not working. It should be active before motor start without fuel pump and extinguish when fuel pump or motor is on.

I was also using a mod in 2020 and without it in 2024 the plane doesn’t feel right (and I do fly it frequently in RL).

The transparency issue must be some kind of bug on about half the included planes. You can see it on many planes from the main menu. Some of the planes have crystal clear windshields in the menu and then many others have windows that appear fogged in the main menu. Sure enough, if you load any of the planes that appear fogged in the menu you get intense sun scattering that ruins the view from the cockpit.
