oh great, thanks Pils ! with this information, i m going to buy it! best regards

It's not dead at all!. Before I say this, a bit of disclosure. I AM NOT involved with IXEG, and I will not discuss or mention details/plans I will let official channels do so. I met Tom at FSExpo this past year in PVD and had a good hour long discussion with him about (mostly) the 737 we all love. NO IT'S NOT DEAD. He discussed details with me that if he wishes to share one day he can, but it's not my story to tell. But it's a VERY interesting story at that!. You folks would not believe the dark side of developing that happens. Like many of you, I too have been frustrated with the 737, but after talking to Tom at Expo, I can say I heard it from the horses mouth, THE 737 IS STILL BEING WORKED ON!!! Again I won't discuss what Tom discussed with me about what's being worked on. ALso @tkyler I would like to thank you again for you time at expo, was an absolute pleasure meeting and talking!

YES! I FINALLY found the fix in the net after HOURS of search. Now I can normally exit the game and go to the settings menu WITHOUT to kill the process... Here is the solution written:https://forums.x-plane.org/forums/topic/325851-xp-1213-4-on-linux-freeze-not-ctd-on-exit/#comment-2864294 and here https://forums.x-plane.org/forums/topic/326955-x-plane-12-hangs-on-exit-linux/ I only needed to run sudo ln -s /bin/true /usr/bin/pulseaudio I am still learning linux but I think its an symbol link creation... Linux wizardry that I want to learn and thats an very good thread to start learning some things hehe Thanky to you all for trying to help me. Have an nice flight :-) EDIT: So naturally I can now access the CL650 settings :-)

This problem is more elaborated on this post I made: https://forums.x-plane.org/forums/topic/334979-linux-click-on-quitexit-or-settings-hangs-the-sim/ Note: Only with the CL650 I cant go into the settings menü while the plane is loaded. Its possible with all the other planes around with the trick above mentioned -.- EDIT: To elaborate here is an log file from an just started and through the following exited X-Plane 12 client: first loaded all up to the plane. Then clicked top in the menu to exit the sim. The sim hangs and does nothing. Lastly go to the taskmanager end exit the thread itself. You will see nothing "obviously" wrong in the log file. I wish I were an professional coder then I think I could solve all these harder linux related puzzles... But please has anybody an Idea other then go to Ubuntu? Clean exit from threads. ----- X-Plane has shut down ----- Log.txt

Then I do have an problem... because I simply cant load the plane AND do any kind of settings related work. Its an problem with my Linux system or so and I am not willing enough to go through all the hassle again no setup an working Linux work environment... Every time I click the button on "settings" in the main menu I must manually close the process in my taskmanager and then the settings menu pop up. When I try this with the loaded CL650 plane its just an CTD... I made my peace with this kind of inconvenience... its just an inconvenience for now atleast. Any Ideas to that? and/or any other way to configure this lovely bird?

Search for "ats_disc". https://hotstart.net/wiki/CL650/Frequently_Asked_Questions#How_to_disconnect_the_auto-throttle?

The plane has to be loaded for the commands to appear.

The last update was a year ago: The next update is well into development and hopefully will be out in beta before end of the year.

I have programmed to release the update in a few weeks.

thats from my test installation so dont mind the uncalibrated stick or multiple axes error.

This screenshot is hopefully accurate enough to depict my problem...

Not clear what you are asking. May be you mean if the R-1830-S1C3-G has a blower or has a 2-speed blower? This engine has a single speed (7.15:1 ratio) blower. So no controls to select speed. Later Twin Wasps (R-1830-92 I think) used in C47s had a 2-speed blower.

Over a year since my post in June 2024, and almost two years since the IXEG 733 was released for X-Plane 12 in September 2023, and it’s exactly the same — abandoned, broken, ignored, and showing complete disregard for its customers. Truly impressive…

We have a bunch of keys.

Hello world, I immersed myself into the CL650 in the last days and it functions like a charm... but 2 things are bothering me: 1.) In the X-Plane 12 Settings there is no tree for the CL650 specific keybindings. 2.) Whats the keybindings for Right Throttle Auto-Throttle Disconnect and Left Throttle Auto-Throttle Disconnect? I already tried out many many Autopilot keybindings but it seems like I cant find it... Same with the troubleshooting. I installed it in an extra Vanilla X-Plane 12 installation with the Linux and one time with the Windows installer. Didn't work ether. I cant seem to get this keybindings tree. Even if its not "much of an problem", I have an X-Camera bind in my main installation for the buttons when I need to press one of them, but its more immersive when I had the keybindings... In the following 2 screenshots and the log file. I appreciate any kind of help. Thank you all in advance. Best regards Noax Log.txt

Maybe I'm wrong, but I haven't seen an update since 2022. Is the development of this plane definitely finished? thanks

As title

It's been about 9 months almost to the day a fix was posted. The deployment process for this must be substantial. I'm a software engineer, I don't mind helping out with that. Not looking for pay, I'd just like to get this working with my setup...

Just bought the plane a few days ago and just had this. Log.txt

Hi, Apologies for the delay in replying. I have done some extensive tests, and the following are my observations. Sounds: * I checked my sliders in X-Plane - all maxed. I discovered my headset was set as system COMMUNICATION DEVICE, and not HEADPHONES. This seemed to make a minor difference in quality due to the max bitrate of the output. * Nose gear RETRACT sound - this only plays ONCE! Once you have taken off and retracted the gear, it NEVER plays again unless you land, AND THE NOSEWHEEL TOUCHES THE GROUND. I'm assuming there is some air/ground logic tied to the nosegear, and for some reason the gear retract audio is dependent upon the aircraft having been on the ground. You can replicate this by flying around and just cycling the gear. Extension plays always; retraction only plays on the first retract cycle since being on the ground. * AP disconnect sound is practically inaudible, even with headphone volume turned up and being deafened by the engine noise. * Wind noise is extremely quiet if it is present. I flew at 300 kts and couldn't discern any difference in noise. DME: * DME speed and time display - this is bugged. It works as expected as long as the aircraft trajectory is in the 180 cone flying AWAY from the station. As soon as the aircraft has any closure rate with the station, the DME speed/time reads zero (e.g., flying directly towards the station still reads zero). Flight Director/Autopilot: * HDH mode - I checked real-world docs, and it should roll to wings level THEN hold whatever heading it is flying the moment it reaches wings level. It is NOT a simple wing-leveler; if the aircraft is disturbed after this point, it will roll back to the heading it was on. The bug is that it is capturing the heading at whatever moment ANY flight director or AP mode is engaged. This is the part that is not correct. For the avoidance of doubt, the sequence of events for HDH mode is thus: * HDH mode (e.g., all FD and AP modes DISABLED). * Aircraft is flown with e.g., a 20 degree left bank * AP is engaged. * ALT HLD engages, and HDH becomes the active roll mode * Aircraft at moment of activation is passing 210 degrees heading * Aircraft should roll to wings level, at say 200 degrees heading * HDH should enter heading-hold submode at wings-level on 200 degrees, and not any other heading that was present prior to this. HDH mode should "forget" the heading it was on when the AP is disengaged. Upon being re-engaged, it will again roll wings level ONLY, and THEN hold whatever heading it is on at that moment. The roll knob will operate as it currently does as this is correct. Confirmed working as you describe: * GPU generator (seems the default setting of 800 A is already sufficient to prevent volt drop during start) * Battery overheat * Engine fan - I compared this to several videos on YT (yes, I'm aware of the problems of sound recording and YT compression), and it sounds very similar.

Attached. Hope this helps Log.txt Log.txt
