yep it doesnt work probably due to custom electrical system of vulcan
Thank you very much for the kind words - very much appreciated and quite humbling. Itās been great to be part of the team that put this together and also to have had the help, support, pretty much whatever we needed from 655 Maintenance and Preservation Society at Wellesbourne without whom it would never have got to the level it has!
Ref the lighting, the instruments arenāt backlit - 1st pic from the POH:
The pillar lamps referred to sit out on the instrument panel, Iāve circled some of them in the next pic (which I took while we were being pushed back into the parking space after an engine run 
)
They throw light across the front of the panels and illuminate the needles and readings of the gauges.
As for the back-seaters, yes I really would have liked to see that modelled but I genuinely donāt know what year we would have been releasing it

A very good small review Luis and imo āspot onā.
I donāt think there is anything that I disagree with here.
The only thing I would personally add would be a thank you to JF for providing this product at a very reasonable price

Oh sorry if I got this wrong but my understanding was that the needles and numbers were coated in reflective paint so the UV lighting would make them glow. In the sim I think you can only do this as backlight? If that was the case it would be awesome.
About the back seaters maybe you can run a poll or something about how many users would be happy to pay for an āextensionā of the plane adding that or something like that. It would be great to see this finished some day.

I donāt think you got it āwrongā, but just the backlighting idea threw me. The lighting definitely comes from in front of the gauges on the real aircraft but I see what you mean about creating the effect by backlighting in the sim.

To end this and get back on topic I will just say Iām sure it runs on the console. On the console you ācanātā use Mods, VR, and most 3rd party peripherals. This for me is a huge limitation.
Itās under Ā£30, which makes the product available to many more people. Tbh, I think itās amazing value and quality. Iām always bemused by people who want to slap a GN750 or whatever into classic aircraft, never understood it, but each to their own. Now an INS

I made a short video to show you, what you have to do, to get the electrical and radio panel on Hotkeys of the user defined camera views. So you can easily switch to the electrical/radio panel without the EFB and you can even pan and zoom the view.
The video is in german language, but you can clearly see what I am doing and automatic translation should help a bit too.
Cheers

Shouldnāt the title of this topic change now? 
Thatās very good to know! Iāve never seen this and would not have expected it. Is it something PMS50 is likely to be able to patch/fix? If not, thatās a no go for me for sure. Iām probably in the minority, but I canāt really function (at least donāt want to) without that thing lol

He would be excited to know that there is a kiwi roundel livery on the Vulcanā¦
The only other nation to have the proud RNZAF roundel on the Vulcanā¦
Althoughā¦
That was a prank played by the kiwis for sneaking out in the middle of the night and painting the red kiwi in the center of the roundel when a Vulcan made a visit to NZ
Weāve posted a change log on our forum to give you details of what is/will be included in each of the Vulcan updates. Currently you can see the list of already completed changes that will be included in the first update, v1.1. Others, such as improvements to the rear crew camera system, are still work-in-progress and will be added to the list once complete.
We are currently aiming to release the v1.1 update next week.

Hi,
Thank you for the product and the upcoming update, I donāt know whether itās been reported but the Zoom in Virtual Reality inside the cockpit needs adjustment as it āzoomsā too much in places. So your face is right on the panels instead of being just off enough to see them properly, I have to bend my head right around to see some things.
Thanks

A wonderful aircraft! Not flying anything else at present. Very photogenic, as superb cockpit with immersion and impressive sounds, flight model, etc.
Some minor observations for consideration:
-
While taxying at under 10 kts ground speed, the rudderpedals/nosewheelsteering and pitch-elevons are inop. Feature or bug?
-
Contrails and smoke misaligned. Maybe an Asobo issue?

There two options for the nose wheel steering - auto (default) or realistic where you have to enable the nose wheel steering on a switch.
Option on the EFB.
I know, I have realistic enabled. And the NWS switch is on the yoke. Still, with both enabled the pedals (also rudder and pitch movement of the stick) are frozen until 10 kts ground speed.
PC Version
I think something is wacky with my installation too. I also use the realisting setting - as I wanted to disable NWS during takeoff roll. I dunno what I did, but pressing my keybind for [Set Nosewheel Steering to limit] does the opposite. If I press and hold the keybind, it disables NWS - The NWS is otherwise engaged if I donāt disable it by using āthe switch/buttonā. For me, at least I can control when NWS is engaged.
I donāt have the issue of no steering under 10 kts though. On my installation, it turns almost as good as an F-18 or F-14 with NWS HI engaged.
I have some strange behavior to report:
When pressing the escape button and then resuming flight, all of the engines shut down. I checked the Just Flight forums and there was some indication that this may have been caused by erratic control inputs from the mixture axis on the HOTAS throttle, but double-checking my keybinds showed I donāt have mixture bound to any axis on any peripheral, so that solution is moot. Itās āsolvableā by clicking the āready for TOā button on the EFB but thatāsā¦ kind of annoying.
Next, I was flying along at 40,000 feet for about an hour or so with no problems, no warning lights or bells, until suddenly my engines shut off. I made no control inputs, I didnāt press escape, I didnāt switch any views, I didnāt click anything in the cockpit, and I had enough fuel in all of the tanks. Again, I was able to restart the engines mid-flight by clicking the āready for TOā button but after that point I just shut the sim off.
Just purchased this beauty! Going to dive into the tutorial and do a first flight. I canāt wait!
Done for you my friend.
