February 6, 201016 yr Hey Bryan,Absolutely great product! A few things I noticed...Is there a command to set Climb Power? I tried to use the syntax for cruise or MCT, but they didn't seem to work. Also, I didn't pay attention to it, but does the FO manipulate the autobrake during the pre-takeoff stuff?Also, I did notice that the Seatbelts callout as part of the climb check came through my speakers rather than headset. Additionally, out of habit I gave a cross-checked call at 80kts....this had the unfortunate result of "reject". Nothing you can do here...just an FYIThanks!Jeff Jeff Hepburn

Nothing you can do here...just an FYIThanks!JeffHi Jeff:Climb Power: Kimmo already answered.MCT: "select m c t""select maximum continuous thrust""set maximum continuous thrust" Set Cruise: "set cruise power""select cruise power"Reject: "Check" can sound like "Reject", so be very careful how you say it during takeoff or the speech recogntion engine might hear "Reject".Autobrake: FO will not set the autobrake during takeoff because the autobrake system in the Maddog has issues. This was a big discussion issue during beta testing.We hope Leonardo addresses the autobrake issue soon. I'm sure they will. Once they fix the autobrake system, we'll have the FO control the autobrake.If you're using your USB headset, the "seatbelts" challenge should come through your headset using Headset is select to ON on the Main Panel. See if it happens again.Best, B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord

This is really a great piece of work. Thanks so much!Jeff Jeff Hepburn
