First of all, Avanti is only compatible with XP11. Won't work in XP12. And yes you need to own an X-Aviation product to be able to run her, in XP11.

TDSSim GTN Xi 650 Ready!

Yes will not be there.

I found the issue. G500 plugin has changed the signature (each plugin has one), so it cannot been found and that's why you see the above. I might release an update in the next weeks fixing this and a few other things. For now, download the linked image below, and drop it into LES C23 Sundowner/cockpit_3d/generic folder to overwrite the old image. It is an empty image. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/yv88qjhc04tjpuvlutbsa/RSG500-1.png?rlkey=6uknf81e1o50ywo6tuvkye5n2&st=j162n420&dl=1

March '23 or '25? I haven't try it myself yet. Please post your Log.txt.

I couldn't start working before 12.1 went final. Beyond this, 1 person, me, working on 2 aircraft support and 2 aircraft under development. Moreover, I'm slowly moving the code from Lua to Cpp, which I'm learning as I'm doing things. Mostly, the update is almost done, needs final touches to be ready.

Good! Cause I'm thinking to add support for their 650 for both C23 and DC3.

I found in their documentation that the must have own log files stored in the Windows Documents folder.

If happened at 134 kts, either the flaps were not 100% fully retracted, or some random x-plane failure kicked in. If you look the flaps limits placard, there are values for each flap position (per 1/4). Those limits are for flaps being stationary. Also the bottom line says "EXTENSION 97kts", which means that you should not try to extend at all, even a tiny bit, if you speed is much higher than 97 kts. All limits have some leeway though. You might extend the flaps at, for example, at 102kts and nothing will happen, but do not push your luck too much. At the end, we left the option to be able to reset the failure, not to make you flight more challenging than anticipated.

You may try to toggle reflections to low, to make instruments more readable. https://airfightergr.github.io/les_c23_docs/gui/. It is very well known across X-Plane's community that, currently, there is an issue with X-Plane's dark cockpits. Also it is very well known that Laminar is working to fix this, hopefully in the next update.

Please provide detailed feedback to be able to help you.

After installing the DC3, run X-Plane but load one of the default aircraft, like the Cessna C172. You must get a window to enter your X-Aviation login details. This will activate the DC3. The load the DC3 and should work. You Log file shows that has not been activated. 0:00:56.104 G64: debug: GK: Load license from disk.. 0:00:56.104 G64: debug: GK: 404: license database 0:00:56.104 G64: debug: GK: Empty license file.

Seems that DC3 has not been activated. Load a default aircraft and should get a window to enter your X-Aviation account login details. After the account is activated, load DC3 and should work.

https://www.x-plane.com/kb/using-x-plane-11-addons-with-x-plane-12-on-mac-systems/ Gizmo plugin, that used to code all DC3 systems, UI, etc., is no longer developed, so is not going to have an ARM compatible plugin. I've already started to create my own plugin that is ARM compatible, and moving the code from the Gizmo plugin, but this procedure will be long and won't happen overnight.

Because DC3 uses Gizmo plugin, you must run X-Plane under Rosetta to run.

Looking to find sometime to do a couple more fixes to cut a new release. Trying to do as fast as possible.

Depending on the lighting. If the instrument is backlit, will look brighter even in the day if you turn on instrument lighting. Here though, the instruments are not backlit, but each one has 1-2 lamps in front that cast light on the instrument. This light has no effect under day lighting, because of X-Plane.

Which plane?

In the Autopilot section, has a link for X-Plane's S-TEC 55 autopilot documentation, how's operation is identical. Here's the link: https://www.x-plane.com/manuals/S-TEC_Autopilot_Manual.pdf Also, there is a video tutorial for the Autopilot from Philipp, the guy who code it for X-Plane:

OK, it is a peculiarity of the Autopilot. You have to be below the glideslope and in ALT mode. Then press the APPR button and you should get both ALT and GS indications. When the glideslope needle is about 1/3 above the center, you must press the ALT button. The ALT indication will go away and only the GS will be visible (regarding the vertical navigation). Then the aircraft will follow the GS to the ground.

Do you mean does not?

You don't get glideslope deviation, or the autopilot does not follow the glideslope?

Sure she does! Check the online manual and if you have any questions, please ask! https://airfightergr.github.io/les_c23_docs/

@blondejfx there is an initialization issue, which will be fixed in the next update. Until then, there is a walkaround: Let the GTN650 to boot up normally. When you pass through the initial screens, you'll end up as your pic above. Let the unit to turn to COM mode. Press the small FMS knob to go into NAV mode. Turn the volume knob all the way down. Now turn the volume up. The NAV is now powered.
