Anyone know how to bind a key for reverse thrusters to operate. It does not use the default settings I have mapped for other planes.    

You need to use the throttle setup in the tablet/efb. It allows you to set where on your throttle axis you want the detents for max, to, clb, idle and reverse, as well as the dead spots for the detents. So you don't use the reverse binding in the sim itself, set it up via the EFB.

I see that, but Im not talking about holding patterns though. Im just talking about normal routing with several turns after eachother, which isnt all that uncommon at least in europe. 

What flight plan were you using? I would like to test this using the same FP and speed/altitude profile.

I have been looking closely at LNAV tracking on every flight I make as a tester of the MSFS CRJ - in particular because this has been a problem in the past in the P3D version. I don’t want to claim “LNAV is perfect”, but in all honesty I have not seen any major tracking problems - and I would certainly like to be able to recreate it with a specific FP that causes the issue.

I won’t have an opportunity to test the FP until tomorrow, but I will definitely give it a try.

I can’t give an ETA for the first update for the CRJ, but glideslope capture and tracking will be much improved.

Sorry if this has been asked.  Love the jet but want to see it in traffic too.

Has anyone gotten a CRJ to show as AI traffic? If you have, can you tell me what you have done?

For some reason I cannot get even one to show even though I have all the CRJ base models (fltsim.to, aerosoft, etc).

If you want to try an approach that can drive you nuts, try this route: LFMP to LFBO: ORBI4N ORBIL ORBI6L,  Approach ILS 14L Transition ADIM2. Have fun.

Thanks, I’ll try this

Heads up you might have a long load time after today's sim update.  Since the initial install load it wasn't taking very long to load new flights.  After today's sim update, the CRJ took quite a bit to load though not as long as the first install load.  Maybe it had to rebuild some stuff for itself or something.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh, so I gained a solid 8-9fps in the CRJ from todays sim update.  sitting at the gate at KSMF, connecting ground power, and powering up the avionics was usually sitting at 30-31 in the cockpit.  Now, 38-39.  I used to have to use the screen disabling hack for the FO displays to get anywhere near that.

The more I fly this plane the more I like it.  I'm pleasantly surprised just how deep the simulation is to be honest, the documentation which ships is fantastic and goes to great lengths to show the depth of the simulation!  I'm just updating the sim to latest version so hope to see performance boost as well!

It’s very likely that it had to rebuild the initial files since the version number of the main FS executable would have changed with the patch today

I looked at both of them but I am using PSX and RealTraffic.   So I think you have to be in Vatsim environment for them to show.

Ah sorry, I assumed you were asking for a "online solution". My fault.

This may be user error but after tuning a VOR how do I see the DME on the PFD or ND?  I have selected VOR1 or VOR2 on the EICAS but I only see the needles on the PFD not the actual DME....
