I have that weird "residue" on the windows and sunshield as well after updating. You can also see it on those small glass covers on a couple of the switches. Turns out it's the reflection setting doin

Isn't this how it should be? It's a momentary switch.

I can't click any switches except for nav and strobe lights. Can move flaps lever, nothing else. The crash bar is in its upper position on load, and can't be moved. Can't turn battery on, cant move throttle lever using mouse pointer (it's in full reverse on load, not even cutoff).

Short 20 min flight, no problems for me. Everything working as expected. 

Just the AOA HUD does nothing, no indication visible. Am I right that because I'm using Track IR it wouldn't work?

Hello!

HUD doesn’t work correctly on VR either. It shouldn,t be visible anywhere else than in opened HUD glass. Now it’s hoovering everywhere.

Tested v1.1.2 on 11.30r1. Have serious dificulties to move the throttle from IDLE-CUT to the next postition. In v1.1.1 when hovering over the throttle there was double sided arrow and movement was easy even sometimes too easy, now I can see a hand but no matter what I tried after a long time I was only able to move the throttle to IDLE-LOW. So no flight test here.

P.D: second test, same result but the handle is stuck at IDLE-LOW from the begining. Phisicaly its not moving from that position but the scheme on the left shows the stick at IDLE-LOW and the stick silouete on the left side moving up and down, mouse only. That was in windowed mode. In full mode both stick and stick scheme became freezed. The rest of the buttons working though.

That's a mistake on my end.  I'll change the cursor type in the next update, but it should work as it did in the VR mod that was made before.  Left side of the power lever should be forward-backward and right side should be left-right.

Goran, while you're at it, do you think it's possible to add dedicated commands for cutoff, low idle, high idle and flight idle positions? 

I know there's the mixture rich/lean a bit commands which work, but I want to use an axis on my saitek quadrant for controlling the left side of the throttle and therefore dedicated commands would be very nice!

Same problem here!

I would love the ability to press (and hold) a dedicated button on my throttle which should bring it in fuel control mode. That way we could control the fuel control mode with the actual throttle.

Hi,

 

I have the same power lever problems as others have mentioned. Clicking and dragging the power lever in order to start the engine only works maybe one in ten tries. Also clickspots on some of the switches feel as though they've been shifted slightly away from the actual location of the switches.

Once I've managed to get the engine started, the plane behaves normally and I can control power with my joystick slider.

I do have the side-menu/tool-bar btw.

Is there a way to download 1.1.1 as I delete my files after they've been installed?

The power lever issue has been fixed and will be available soon.  For now, left side moves the power lever forward and backward.  Right side moves it left-right.  The clickspots for some of the switches have been moved from the base of the switch to the tip of the switch.

Worked it out now: you have to click & drag the power lever from its right-hand side. B)

Not sure I will update this to version noting some of the issues...…………..

But for the next one how exactly do you update your current version (many XP11 planes you just delete the old aircraft folder) - but this one comes with an installer - any help appreciated?

Redownload the installer. Run it. It will prompt to uninstall the old version. After that it will install the new one

I just made a LFQQ/EBBR back and forth with the new update.

Everything works fine and even better on my side, so smooth which I wish for everybody! Strangely I don't have any bugs mentioned on the previous posts I just read... ? I mean I didn't notice (in my home cockpit) any issue with the throttle/power by the way... I could maintain all the speed required in any phase of flight as recommended by applying hands action so... ?

The particle effect is just amazing, heatblur woaaa I love it , never seen that at this level, same for the ice effect...

What surprise me very positively is that I have no hit at all on my fps, 30/35 in overcast over Bruxelles (big and dense city) no micro stutters with all the new technologies and the myriad of deep details and stuff provided from this outstanding addon so that THANK YOU so much for bringing us so much fun and tks for the good philosophy of such a realism never reached so far!

God job Captains, big respect for that!
