Featured Replies

Today when i was approaching egjj airport, after ap off at 1000 feet agl, a/c suddenly diving nose and then screen turned black(coz of excessive g force) than hit the ground. this is my first issue with the fenix. note; don't use any pushback tool. any idea?

Did it dive, or flip like an acrobat like in this video:

If so, and @Aamir will correct me, but from what has been said in the Fenix Discord, this is an Asobo glitch where it appears the FM is dividing by zero because the FM calculations are happening on the same thread as too many other things, and a memory address is getting screwed. Fenix is trying to get Asobo all the information they need to fix the problem, but the nature of the problem means it's very hard to troubleshoot and fix.

Edit: I don't think there's anything you can do on your end to lessen the amount of times you encounter this, but someone from Fenix can correct me on that.

Take-offs are optional, landings are mandatory.
The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
To make a small fortune in aviation you must start with a large fortune.

There's nothing less important than the runway behind you and the altitude above you.
It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground.

I was at virtual cockpit. because my screen was going to black i couldn't see what was happening exactly, but i know it suddenly hit the ground. Maybe it was the same issue with above one because all of them happened in a few seconds.

Is Icing on in MSFS? If yes, that's the reason most proably. Turn it to visual only.

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Icing is off. I have searched discord channel and mine is the same bug mentioned above. Normally i m using des mode with fenix but i used op des mode too for this flight. maybe this caused bug, who knows.

And if you don't want any problems, turn icing off completely.

I'm having absolutely no problems with icing set to visual only, for months.
