yeah, it was pretty much Kodiak specific wasn’t it
I tried that in the settings menu but adjusting those brightness values for the PFD and MFD does nothing.
awesome many thanks for these notes
Are you sure it’s the same warning. That one operates as I described. There are others.
It can be tested by switching the rotary TKS switch on with the separator in normal. Once you see the warning you can move the separator to bypass. It will take about 30 sec for the separator flap to fully move to the bypass position and once it’s there the warning will go away.
Can someone else confirm this bug in relation to the Honeycomb Bravo and annunciation.
It’s not unique to the Bravo it’s the same for everyone. The animation is a bug when trying to control externally. To get the Bravo switch to work you need an external program that can map the Bravo switch to a series of sim connect writes that allow you to gradually alter the inertial separator position. I can confirm that doing it this way you get the correct annunciations but as I said at the start the animation is bugged and will not change.

No, you misunderstood me. I bound the switch meanwhile.
But my problem is when the Bravo is connected the annunciation on the G1000 NXi PFD doesn’t change. It always says ENG INLET NRM even when the switch is activated by the mouse and it moved in the cockpit.
When I disconnect the Bravo the annunciation change after 40 seconds when the switch is activated to ENG INLET BP.
Oh ok. That’s a better description of the issue. Indeed weird. Are you sure you don’t have any of the other Bravo controls set to something that could interfere? Perhaps loading a completely un-mapped Bravo profile to test would be a good idea.

Also have Bravo but I haven’t experienced this bug. Annunciator shows the correct inlet setting (NORM/BP), whether I move the switch with the mouse or via external hardware (using spad and a series of simconnect events).

I have a Bravo and don’t experience this. I always activate the switch with my mouse. About the only problem I ever had with that switch was a CTD the instant I switched it to bypass while on the ground at TNCS (Paba). Reloaded the sim and did the exact same thing with no crash so I’m assuming that the switch CTD was a coincidence.
Do we have any estimates when amphibian version comes?
The IRIS tutor?
It may well have been! Either that or Piaggio P.149.
Thanks for the tip with the un-mapped profile.
Indeed, there was a conflict in the bindings of the Bravo. I used the MSFS command "Set Anti Ice On / Off” for the twist knob left from the AP panel on the Bravo to control the TKS Surface/Prop twist knob in the plane. That’s caused the inoperable Engine Bypass.
Now I’ve bound the two SimConnet-Events from the knob in the cockpit to the knob of the Bravo and everything works like it should.

Great. Glad you got it sorted.
So can you see dots on the display? Mine is always dark (no dots).
DOT visibility depends on pilot camera position. I suppose it’ll be sorted in in one of the next updates.
Thanks, should have mentioned I am using VR and have moved my head to all positions but no dots. Will wait for a fix then.
I don’t have VR but using TrackIR - VR can be another topic. Hopefully that will be fixed soon too - it’s even possible that the same correction fixes this issue for both.
I am really enjoying the Kodiak, it’s great. I do have one question/suggestion. It would be nice to have the elevator trim displayed on the G1000 Nxi version. I’ve been flying from the co-pilot seat and it’s impossible to see where the elevator trim is set without sliding over momentarily… plus, in the Missionary Bush Pilot’s videos, the G1000 definitely shows all the trim settings: pitch, aileron, and rudder
