The L. ALT OUT and R. ALT OUT annunciators do not come on when I switch off the left and right alternators.  My logic says they should come on when I do that (please correct me if I'm missing something).

The annunciators turn on when you turn off the alternators on the GNS 530 liveries but apparently not on the GTN 750 or the GTN 750XI liveries.  But that begs the question, how do you test the warning lights.   I just tried cutting off one engine while on the ground and would think that a hydraulic warning light would come on as well as a fuel warning light, etc.  Guess those are not simulated at the present time.  Also with the engines running, if I use the tablet to open any of the doors a door warning light does not come on.

There is a test button for the warning lights (which does work OK) but obviously that doesn't test that the systems themselves are initiating the warnings.

The windscreen issue is still being worked on. What was found was the windscreen looks clean at some airports ( e.g., KCOS, Rwy35L) and scratched and dirty at others (e.g., KPUB, Rwy35). Very strange.

Typical response from a weatherman 🙂 

You should stick to building car radios (I hope everyone gets the reference) 😂  I bought a few of your brand back in my youth when that was important (Kenwood, Alpine, Blaupunk etc. (that is how I pronounced it, LOL))

I see loads of folk look AT the window, does anyone look OUT of the windows? Is that why I'm the only one to see wobbly spinners? (No, turning off blur isn't an option)

Interesting.  I hadn't looked at that.  Hopefully that will get fixed.

Looks like there is (Or will be soon?) another update. This one is labeled as 1.3.1 Hotfix

 

Quote

1. Oit temp reconfigured to fix the engine performance issue in beta 1.3.

2. Tablet only draws from battery when unit on and new hotspot to replace battery in flight. Located on the top left corner.

3. Glass interior updated again to fix the strong finger prints and scratches.

4. Autopilot updated for minor issues. Nav mode in VLOC. Also made some improvements.
 
5. Improved the autopilot config settings for pitch control and glideslope control.

6. Minor tweaks in the FLIGHT_TUNING config.

 

NOTE: Beta_1.2_hotfix and higher now has automixture enabled for this aircraft without having to change the sims settings. The real aircraft turbocharger includes a fuel control unit to maintain the fuel flow no matter what altitude. Asobo still needs to address this as the real aircraft you can still adjust the mixture to set the fuel flow level to control heat in the EGT. But if we disable the auto fuel and flow you will be constantly changing the mixture as you climb and that is not realistic.

I installed 1.3.1 this morning.  They worked on navigation in VLOC mode and made the 605 autopilot worse for me.  But VLOC navigation works fine with the Navomatic autopilot.

The RMI NAV needle does not work off of NAV2.

Oops, my bad, it's working now.

The snow / shimmering on the co-pilots compass has been fixed.

When the aircraft is on the ground and the cabin doors are open, I can confirm the that cabin doors close when you zoom all the way out in exterior view.

They remain open until that last scroll wheel click full out zoom- then they close.

That is so weird, but yes it does that for me as well.  I also tried opening all of the doors, etc and zoomed out to see if any others close, but it only seems to be the cabin doors.
