How do you remove the copilot?  Changing the Fuel/Loading screen does not "stick".

Beware of the latest update... supposedly to fix animation issues for the TDSNXI version.. which is the one I use.

After the update, my flaps controls do not work any more... I kept a copy of the original which I am going back to.

I mean, what I write "I am missing EGT/CHT for all 4 cylinders (for leaning) ", not one cylinder.

I think it's an SWS thing. It's an irritation in their Zenith. Treat it like a pre flight "Sorry love, not today. Maybe some other time"

The SWS Kodiak does not have this animated passenger..

Bert:  

I believe you need to enter "000" for the weight of the copilot.

The SWS Kodiak does not have this animated passenger..

On the Kodiak the co-pilot is absent by default, on this one they are present by default. 

Simply remove the weight from the station_load.1 line of the flight_model.cfg and he/she will never appear. 

I much prefer the default to be no co-pilot (such as with the Just Flight Arrows) and always alter the flight_model cfg from every addon as soon as I get it. Personally I think they should always be absent by default.

In the Kodiak, that Standby instrument killed my frames. I always pull the breaker. 

You're right ... I switched off Standby instrument and my frame rate has been returned stable at 30fps (fixed at 30 fps)

Thanks for the help!

There is a fix on their  Discord for substituting another standby instrument for the Kodiak one, and you will regain your FPS.

Any one else notice the strobe light on the tail is not "connected" to it? When you turn the rudder the tail strobe stays in a fixed position
