The Reality XP GNS 530 can ONLY be updated with official data for the GNS units supplied by Garmin. If you don't have access to that you are stuck with the default data supplied with the Garmin GNS trainer which hasn't been updated in almost a decade.

The 12.2.0 beta is available now and worth testing if only to provide feedback to plane devs an LR on how well the built-in cockpit lighting fixes are working for you.

"just" is doing quite a bit of heavy lifting in that sentence

You shouldn't need custom datarefs when you just want to check if a button is being held down when another is pressed - instead you can add a condition on the second button to check if LOCAL/Devices/Bravo Throttle Quadrant/<first button> is 1 I use this on jets to allow me to shut down the engines by moving the throttle lever into the detent position but only if I'm holding down a separate button at the same time to avoid accidents. -- Edit -- Looking at it, that might not even be necessary - instead you can create separate Pressed and Released events for the buttons which will allow you to hold the button down and have the sim handle the processing for multiple button presses itself. For Button Pressed set the event parameter to a static value of 1 and for Button Released set the event parameter to 2

It's not really what you're going to want to hear but I REALLY strongly recommend you look at getting a tool like Axis and Oh or Spad.next to handle complex control setups, not just for this plane but for any plane in pretty much any civilian sim.| They cost money yes but, for me at least, I genuinely would not want to fly a sim without support from them. But in this specific case, I do have a Fly With Lua script here which maps the flaps specific to buttons, you can probably use Joy to Key or Joystick Gremlin to map axis positions to buttons and trigger them, or alternatively use that as a base for controlling directly from an Axis setting.

Cheers, for the confirmation. I'll have a play with the new version installed and see if I still see a problem.

Last few flights I've noticed that the CJ525 is always loading with 0 fuel in tanks (it's possible this coincided to the latest 12.1.4 release) Has anyone else seem the same thing ?

It's a long shot but you don't have the OrbX True Earth GB scenery installed do you ?

The TDS team have identified the issue and there'll be a fix in the first update.

I'm actively working with the TDS folks at the moment to identify the issue. Hopefully they'll have it nailed down soon.

Just as a heads-up I've just been trying out several planes with the newly released TDS GTNXi gps plug-in and it appears this isn't playing nicely with the LES C23 v2 and is causing a CTD when loading a flight using the plane. I have no idea exactly what the conflict could be but if there's any additional logging I can provide please let me know. Log.txt

CJ525 N1 Calculator View File About This File About N1 Calculator This is a simple Fly With LUA script to read the N1 Alt/Temp data for the Torquesim CJ525 from .csv files and display the current max N1 value in a window for the current conditions and flight mode. It also reads and displays the recommended Climb Speeds for either Standard or Cruise climb when Climb in mode. Additionally there are options to display the N1 value on the Memo display and the Climb speed using the ASI bug for a more natural in-cockpit experience. The latest version of the code will always be available from it's Github Repository under "Releases" Prerequisites FlyWithLua plugin must be installed and working correctly - plugin was developed using FWL v2.8.10 on Windows 11. (The plugin should be be compatible with the Mac and Linux versions of the CJ525 and FWL but I'm unable to test and confirm that myself.) Installing N1 Calculator Extract the contents of the Zip file into the \plugins\FlyWithLua\Scripts folder including the CJ525_data folder (these are the .csv data files read by the plugin) Using N1 Calculator The plugin window should be automatically displayed when you start a flight in the CJ525. You can Change the Flight mode between Take-Off, Climb, Cruise and Go-Around using the List Box at the top and use the checkboxes to specify if engine Anti-Ice is on or off and whether to send the data to the In-cockpit Memo. When in Climb mode the window also shows the recommended Climb speed for the Altitude as well as a checkboxes to specify whether to send the Climb Speed to the ASI bug and select Cruise Climb. Note - when the Set Memo Display is set this prevents manual setting of the Memo fields so the checkbox should be disabled if the Memo are to be used for anything else. Similarly when the Set ASI Bug is set and the calculator is in climb mode the ASI Bug cannot be manually set. (it can be manually set in other modes even if the checkbox was set during Climb mode) Submitter Matchstick Submitted 02/10/2025 Category Plugins and Utilities
