John Dow 1,220 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I've just completed the first three legs of the included bush strips adventure! A great component of this package. I absolutely recommend if you get the package make use of the included adventure around Eastern Victoria. Although I've been there in real life I've never flown over it and I'm learning things every minute of the flights! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smiler21 1 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Hi I have just bought the aircraft , looks great. Would you know how I would be able to change the call sign and the tail number? It does not seem to change from the default 24-4929, Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure if the ability to change the visual tail number has been implemented in the SDK yet. It is possible to do with default aircrat, but not any 3rd party aircraft that I have seen. You can change between several different visual tail numbers by changing the livery. Cheers, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I lost your contact details, so didn't get a chance to touch base on your awesome CTFC and ZU-OPS paints you did, but they fit in oh so well. Let me know if you have any more you want to add lol. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eberhard Haberkorn 1,445 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Thanks David. You are a star. I just realised that this is for MFS20? I am not there yet, due to limited bandwidth. I will nevertheless drop you a PM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perk 76 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Picked this up last night, looks amazing and seems to handle pretty well. I was wondering if you had custom LVARs for the panel switches? They don't seem to be working with the Saitek switch panel and SPADNext using the normal MSFS 2020 simconnect events.

Rob Abernathy 854 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Tried to take it out on a maiden flight but whenever I click anywhere on the panel I get a CTD. Tried an uninstall/reinstall, no difference. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nick Cooper 6,939 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Hello, apparently there is an update that I assume fixes this. It should soon be available in Orbx Central. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Love-Brice 6 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Correct, version 1.3 works with the latest version of the sim. It's currently uploading to Dropbox and I'll pass it onto Orbx as a matter of priority. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

piotrmorawski85 14 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Hmm... Could the release of this update be region dependent? Because I don't see the update, and my version is still 1.2.5... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dusterman 72 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Now on sale at Orbx , just picked up a copy for my Australia flying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dusterman 72 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Any chance we will see the J230 with the 3300 engine? More power for us high altitude flyers. Beautiful engines in the Jabirus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bminton 0 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Orbx Central still shows version 1.2.5. I'm in the US Midwest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Abernathy 854 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I saw the 1.3 version on OC and the CTD is cured! Thanks. Not to be dumb but the dial that changes the course (not the hdg bug) doesn't work for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tajimak 0 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I bought the aircraft a few days ago. As you can see from the attached photos, almost half of the body of the pilot is visible from outside. Please save him from not jettison himself from the aircraft when he does not intend to do so! I wonder if this is happening only to me since I don't find other people complaining about it in your Forum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nick Cooper 6,939 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Hello, I can make this happen if I select one of the pilots and instructors. Leaving the setting at Default seems to solve the problem but the aircraft never has anyone in it in outside view. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

onlyforbrian 5 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I just noticed a bug today, nothing too serious, I was heading Northeast about 060*, but my compass was reading 210*, about 180* out of whack. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Cooper 6,939 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Hello, welcome to the forums. Could you report that to the developer please? You can do that here. http://www.irissimulations.com.au/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
