Partly true, but I am not aware about any other default/payware aircraft where you cannot see the strobe lights unless you are almost fully zoomed in...... Try it next time u r in the PC-12, strobes on and then go to outside view without zooming. Edited January 25, 20233 yr by roland

January 25, 20233 yr 6 hours ago, turbomax said: loaded once, refreshed/updated never. That's not correct. The on/off button for the gauge is merely turning off the screen rendering (which, given the low resolution of the screen, has next to no hit). With the gauge running in the panel.cfg, it's still updating constantly, so that it shows the correct values and positions, as soon as you hit the on button. "Commenting it out" (or removing it permanently) from the panel.cfg is the only way to have the aircraft not performing the cycles associated with that unit, which appear problematic (and always have with that gauge - it was even a FPS hog in Carenado XP aircraft that use it).

January 25, 20233 yr I constantly get the GEN1 error during flight. Sometimes it goes off on its own but returns randomly. Anyone have any ideas why this keeps happenings?

Anyone have any ideas why this keeps happenings? Yes, it means the plane is trying to tell you there is something is wrong with your Generator number 1. It all seriousness, does this happen at low power settings (throttle or prop condition), and disappear on its own when you increase power? Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

January 26, 20233 yr That's what I love about MSFS, every time I think I've settled on a new favourite aircraft - the one to replace all others, another one comes along and replaces it 🙂 9950X3D - X870E Aorus Master- TUF 5090 OC - 64GB DDR5 - 1500W HXi - Titan 360 RX LCD - 9100 Pro x 2 - LG 45GX950A - HOTAS Warthog with Ava Base

January 26, 20233 yr Author Next question.. The EHSI has gained a new text line, top right corner, third line down. Appears to indicate time to next waypoint, but incorrrectly. Has anyone had a look at this, and made some sense of it? Bert
