[Released] Hondajet for MSFS

So, did another quick flight in this last night.
Two issues - still confused by the VNAV logic and the sudden and severe corrections in decent. Also hitting approach put it into a nose dive at 2100 feet altitude…scary.
Also the auto lighting didnt work, so landed with no landing lights. I know it can be manually activated also, but I was a bit busy with the approach issues at the time lol.
I have no regrets buying this jet, but wont be flying it VNAV again until I find more documentation or some is released. VNAV seems too unpredictable and I will just manage descents myself.

Thanks for that!

I like the plane, unfortunately with the Lipx scenario of Salvuz when you press the button ,flies, the Sim stops, probably some incompatibility
i use xbox s

I have exactly the same problems, hope they get fixed with the patch.

I read on Discord that the author will release a tutorial today or tomorrow.

I like the plane but unfortunately it doesn’t respond to some of the simplest streamdeck profile commands in the Autopilot section (flighttracker).

Patch is available in Content Manager (for me):

Going to give it some test flights right now. :+1:

No changelog in Content Manager. Perhaps on Discord?

Anyone else have an issue after the update where the GPU doesn’t load in anymore?

Hello!
Set the parking brake.

I’m having trouble getting departures and arrivals to appear under dept/arrival selection. I’ve linked my navigraph account, and input the origin and destination airports. What am I missing? I can select which runway but no STARs appear.

nvm I think I figured it out.

Was the Hjet removed from the Xbox Marketplace? I can’t find it.

Nevermind. I had to quit the game and doing a hard reboot got the marketplace updated.

VNV is working much better in today’s update.
I’m seeing a lot of other HA420s flying around as well.
I just love this plane…

uh….i can’t manually move the throttles on xbox. engines get to 10% after startup and that where it ends….can’t get the plane moving.

Do autopilot key bindings work after the update? In my Kodiak at the moment and unable to confirm for myself :joy:

The engines are set to cutoff. You have to manually push the levers in the virtual cockpit forward to idle. Once off cutoff mode they will work as normal.
