That’s right. It needs to be a lot more brighter. In VR it’s even worse.
When taxiing in low idle, I need a ton of torque to start moving. Is this normal behaviour or a bug in the simulation model?
For me, while in low idle, I just have to bump the throttle off of the stop a bit, then move it back to the stop again and it taxis at a reasonable speed.

Something is not quite right with the engine simulation.
Same for me.
same for me but only if I start on a slope (very) runaway otherwise it works (but depends of the weight)
Dude, Awesome! I never thought to do it that way. Thanks!

How are you getting the switch on the dash to toggle?
I’m having trouble with my Bravo mapping and the NXi: I select OBS while on a GPS route so I can swing the magenta line to the rwy heading, but on my Bravo the course knob doesn’t change the course value and move the GPS line, but it does move it if I switch the CDI to VOR. I end up having to turn the onscreen CRS knob to get it to work. I’ve checked the in-game bindings and the only one with “OBS” in the name is VOR OBS. BTW, I don’t have this problem with the GTN750; my Bravo CRS knob is able to move the OBS path.
AFAIK it’s NXi. I could not set CRS with the Bravo in any NXi planes as I remember
It doesn’t unfortunately. Switch animation must be one of those B: or I: or O: variables (can’t remember which), which are described in the table here and are not exposed by MSFS. There is a feature proposal to change that, has lots of votes but it doesn’t seem to be in Asobo’s backlog yet.
I wish SWS had followed Aerosoft CRJ’s approach in this, where almost everything is an LVAR and can be used by the API. For me it’s no big deal since I don’t need the in-game switch to tell the inlet status. I just watch my physical switch and also the G1000 indication.

I’ve sent a list of the ones that need LVAR’s adding to SWS so I’m expecting them to add in support for these missing ones. I had a little tinker and managed to get the de-ice backup power and stall warn test to work so hopefully there is hope for ignition, inertial separator etc.

Yes the Kodiak 100 is truly a next-gen plane without having angular wheels and no low-polygon windows and no objects which should be round but are shaped octagonal, and no other ugly last-gen visuals.
But when are they going to fix this G1000 bug of the middle MFD not showing engine labels? Just having these engine labels there would make the plane perfect - come on it can´t be that difficult 
I think when Working Title one day allows it in their G1000 out of the box without complicated workarounds.

How can I disable automatic XPDR when flying with Kodiak, after receiving the Squawk Code and confirm IFR Clearance from ATC? I would like to enter manually the code myself with Flight Radio Panel or mouse click on G1000Nxi softkeys. I have all AI assistannce off, including auto communication from co-pilot.
You simply just enter the squawk code in the G1000 instead of replying to ATC.

And if you already have the transponder on ATC will automatically detect this, so no need to press anything. I think I found one plane that this didn’t work on, though.
Thanks, I would try to do as your suggestion. But I think I must set the code with my flight panel as quick as possible before they keep asking me whether I did copy that and terminate IFR service.
I think with JF Turbo Arrow, I set the code and need to click IDENT to confirm with ATC, but I love to do that, I don‘t like everything is automatically entered, the same as NAV/ILS freq.
hello
I notice that the label “IGNITION ON” never appears on the PFD when you start the KODIAK (i n the POH it should appears), I of course have the ignition swith ON and It is the same with HI or LO/MOTOR start
Same for you ?
