  1. To be clear, this is how it is in the real plane — the 525 does not have a separate tiller
  2. To load a pilot route in the UNS-1: Press the [FPL] function key to call up the flight plan page; If there are fewer than two legs on the flight plan, a "COPY PLT RTE" prompt is present on the FPL 1/1 page; Otherwise, Delete the flight plan and insert your departure airport. Select the COPY PLT RTE prompt (LSK 4 Right), then pick the route you want in the list As Pils said, the FMS just reads whatever is in `X-Plane/Output/FMS Plans`, and that's what will be listed on that page
  3. For anyone else checking here: the procedure to change the units in the UNS-1 is described in the UNS-1 manual that is installed alongside the plane
  4. So interestingly LittleNavMap seems to have generated invalid v11 .fms files. The departure and arrival blocks should read ADEP ICAO ADES ICAO Since they are both airports. LNM used `DEP` and `DES`, which are reserved for flight plans that begin or end at waypoints (fix/VOR/NDB/what have you). Might be worth letting the LittleNavMap devs know!
  5. Like Cameron said, what you get with other planes doesn't have much to do with it. The CL650 is a bit more GPU-heavy than the TBM and the Zibo. I had a M1 machine when the CL650 was in beta, and I was seeing frame rates similar to what you reported. The M1 is a best when it comes to CPU workload, but its GPU is a bit weak for the Challenger unfortunately.
  6. Yes, we are discussing the ProLine avionics suite, which is modelled in the HotStart 650. The shortcoming you brought up twice now are not with the simulation, but with the actual, real-life avionics. The aim of this add on is to accurately simulate the real avionics, so the shortcomings will not be fixed if they exist on the real unit.
  7. Like @skiselkovsaid for the other case, thats not a bug; that’s how the ProLine 21 draws course-to-fix legs. Once the plane passes 1,100ft, it will do a right-hand turn to establish on the coded course into D266N.
  8. If it has happened twice, could you please try and get a video of it? Aside from arming APPR much, much too early, I'm not sure what could cause it
  9. I cannot reproduce this even by arming approach. My only other hunch is that you accidentally hit the NAV SRC a button on the DCP, which would have caused the NAV source to switch to LOC
  10. Testing this right now, but my suspicion is that you armed APPR while on the star. If that’s the case, the FMS could have initiated a NAV-NAV transfer, thus setting the autopilot to follow the ILS rather than LNAV.
  11. Hello! Could you try an access https://aeronav.faa.gov/d-tpp/2113/xml_data/d-TPP_Metafile.xml in your browser, and see what it says? From your log it looks like there is a SSL issue when trying to get the charts list from the FAA servers.
  12. Okay folks that’s enough, stay on topic and stop with the ad hominem please.
  13. There’s a whole complex dance that the FMSs have to execute, but in normal ops the conditions are: There is a suitable (read: LOC or ILS) approach procedure linked in the flight plan that the plane is in, or that is coming up down track in your FPL; The plane is within 31nm of the approach airport
  14. Simbrief is pretty hit and miss (and “miss” more than often) when it comes to cruise levels. As Graeme mentioned, these numbers are all in the Ops Reference document that comes with the plane — use it
  15. Things you need to check before the pax will deboardm pax signs are turned off engines are shutdown beacon is off cabin door and main door open
