I was hoping to see the newer model with autopilot

Icon A5 bug list after just a few minutes of flight:

  • The “Alternator” amber message is constantly illuminated for seemingly no reason. Both cold & dark or spawning in the air.

  • The “Land aircraft” red warning is illuminated on the ground for no reason.

  • The “avionics brightness” knob doesn’t have any effect. The avionics screen has an automatic brightness regardless of where you turn the knob. Worse, in dark conditions the avionics screen becomes so faint it’s not readable anymore.

  • The “menu” button on the avionics doesn’t work.

  • External lights are not visible on the aircraft, only their projections on the ground. (Nav and strobe lights.)

  • The interior “cabin lights” are too bright at night when turned on. (This is a general MSFS 2024 issue, interior lights at night are extremely bright, this also makes glass cockpits unreadable at night, where applicable. Too much contrast.)

  • Lowering the water rudder on water has no effect. The aircraft is extremely hard to steer on water.

  • Direct-to functionality doesn’t work. When entering a waypoint name or ICAO code, the “duplicates found” message is constantly there but the system never offers duplicates after pressing Enter. Also, direct-to doesn’t work even if you clearly enter a correct airport code. The direct-to screen remains empty and you can’t activate anything.

Alternator amber message still illuminated. Cockpit glass is very ‘milky’ white.

Sim Update 1 contained no fixes for the A5 unfortunately. Maybe SU2 this summer.
