This is so great, so I did a test at once I got the notification message, haven't touched many parts yet but I can see at least the Sat phone back to work in X-Plane 12 and I finally can ask Jenny to prepare everything ready high from the sky!! One more noticed is the Flex setting for thrust seems working fine and better than before. (I remember in 1.7, when Flex is set, the thrust limit will be overridden with the default value after I finished the first climb phase and begin the second one. Now the thrust limit always complies with my Flex setting which is good! Appreciate for the update!!)
Just one issue I'm encountering is the warning of "Main battery off" while just displayed when I was pushed back and ready about to set out. I cannot find any options in the Challenger 650 menu like "Main Battery Connection" to fix this. I think maybe it was because I was too excited when inspecting the new version and opened the front hatch doors newly introduced in 1.8 and broke some circus wires? Anyway, will do a check again later on.
Update: Ahaa, got it below:
Release Highlights:
The forward equipment bay is now modelled, including the main battery disconnect, TRUs and all CBs. Use this to disconnect the main battery now, instead of the Ground Services menu.
I know I should have taken good care of this precious toy not to break it~~ Appreciate for this detailed implementation, make me feel more realistic to play like a real thing~
Will fly more to enjoy and experience this update more~~
Appreciate for all Devs for bring this wonderful masterpiece! Thank you all! ~~
Update with screenshot:
Really took me a little while to find but is feeling good to discover the "Main Battery" connector hotspot. Could be accidentally disconnected by my curiosity when open this hatch door in the night with poor light sight and touched everywhere by mouse click...
