September 25, 20205 yr I'll record it next time for you when I'm about to enter the necessary variables on the APPROACH page. About the fuel flow.. What I thought so! I understand, take your time. 9 hours ago, FNAL said: There must be an issue that the FMC template does not like, such as displaying an undefined variable, so it will show the UNTITLED page. Is it crashing when you go to PERF or APPROACH REF? And 2100lb/hr is much too high fuel flow now. You should be burning about 1200pph total. We have fuel flow on our list but we currently don't have a good understanding of how Asobo is modeling the jet engine. We are doing some research but also waiting more complete SDK documentation so we can properly address it.

If so, yes it is and we're exploring the best approach. There are a few challenges: 1) I wonder how many people would actually use this capability given the sizing issues of the VC - I think most people are using a tablet or second monitor for this. But, if there's a lot of interest, we'd definitely be interested in knowing.... 2) It is fairly easy to load an image onto the MFD - so, for example, if you had a jpg or png image of a chart, it could be displayed without much difficulty, but I personally find that to be a frustrating process. The TFDi 717 had that option in their EFB and I never used it because it was too much work to get the charts I'd want into an image format and saved in the right folder BEFORE launching the sim... 3) There is a Navigraph charts API that we've briefly discussed exploring, but can't say yet whether it could be integrated in with a menu system that is representative of how charts really work in the PL. Obviously this would require users to have a Navigraph charts subscription to work. This is how charts work in the EFB of the Aerosoft Airbus series in P3D (and maybe the Maddog?), but we haven't looked in any detail as to whether it could be implemented yet in MSFS. I think many would like this feauture. Nowadays Navigraph is booming because of MSFS. Meaning more people have this, meaning more want to see this integrated in their favorite planes. Gyazo is great for taking screenshots of things in a flick and then you could I believe just download it - copy & paste! The sweet spot would be Navigraph incl the moving pink arrow! If you could do that, that would be really really cool. 😃 I'm looking forward in whatever your bringing to the next update(s).

One of my favorite things about the CJ4 and also the graphical weather map (dream list as well). Graphical weather map:
September 26, 20205 yr I was flying the CJ4 with the Mod v2.0 last night and when I engaged the AP, the CJ4 immediately started a steep turn to the Left. This was repeatable and only for the CJ4. HDG and NAV were not engaged. Every time, and only to the Left. I was working on some Logitech FIP hardware and SpadNext so it is very possible one of those units was causing the glitch. Just checking to see if anyone else is experiencing this. Regards, Ray When Pigs Fly . Ray Marshall .
September 26, 20205 yr Hello, I'm having a hard time trying to input a simple flight plan in the FMC, can someone please help? SBBR/11R SID: LIVEV1B (MUGIS transition) ROUTE: MUGIS UZ35 MEBLU STAR: GILNI1A APPR: ILS 16 K (OSOMI transition) SBCF/16 1) I can't select the MUGIS transition in the SID, it auto-selects the first transition EDMIN, which is incorrect. 2) I can't select the STAR and approach, it only allows me to select one or the other. If I load the flight plan from the World Map, it has both selected perfectly. 3) I can't seem to find a way to remove waypoints in the LEGS page. For example, I need to remove two waypoints (GEVMI and EKINU) that are incorrectly added when I pick the STAR, but I press CLR and the waypoint, and nothing happens. I also tried to use the minus key, but the result is the same. I can't remove waypoints from the LEGS page. 4) I also can't remove waypoints from the FPLN page. I press CLR + waypoint and again nothing happens. I don't understand if I'm doing something wrong or if it's currently a limitation of the flight system. The CJ4 was one of the planes I was most excited about (very close to it irl) and you can imagine my frustration when nothing I do really works. Thank you in advance.
September 27, 20205 yr Well, some fine people on Discord confirmed my issues. I'm forced to give up on the CJ4 until the Pro Line 21 is properly developed -- the stock one, the mod is brilliant for what it is. Frustrating to say the least. 😞

Frustrating to say the least. 😞 There are a load of issues right now dealing with the route and legs pages. Mostly due to Asobo's flight plan manager system they use in the code which is 1) Very complex and 2) Has many bugs. Also their database is funky at certain places and doesn't have the correct fixes or info for fixes, can't select SID transitions etc.... We are in the process and addressing these issues, specifically the flight plan and legs page, but the process is going to be lengthy as we fight through all the aforementioned problems.

Dear FNAL, thank you for your thoughtful response, that clears any sort of doubts I had regarding the current state or future of the CJ4 mod. You just put a big smile on my face! Fingers crossed here. Cheers

October 4, 20205 yr Hi guys, I dropped the content of the ZIP file in the Community folder, but when I load the CJ4 the gauges are all blank. I believe the mod is loaded because I can click on the seat belt sign and I can hear the announcement. My install is located on my D Drive (D:\MSFS2020) Any idea? Thanks! John
