Hi,

I'm having problems with Flysimware's Learjet 35A. It seems MCE can't "see" or set a number of parameters. Going through the checklist, the FO always raises issues with the settings of the thrust reversers, and I then have to skip those checks. He also can't set the heading bug. There's probably more, but those are the things I've noticed. Officially, the 35A is supported, hence this thread 🙂

Kind regards,

Dimitrios

We haven't updated the plane since it was fully interfaced many years ago.

Maybe a few things have changed which will require MCE to adjust, as there is no official SDK and it needs to be worked out via other means.

Will be looked at as soon as possible. Very likely next month as there are more urgent things to implement in MSFS right now.

Meanwhile, confirm the aircraft version you're on. Thanks

So, I'm on version 4.3c. Other items I have found not to work: Windshield heat, altitude and anti-skid.

Has this issue been resolved yet? I can set everything except the altitude bug. Very frustrating.

Prepar3D or FSX?

Does MCE work in MFS with the Flysimware Lear35? The checklist function won't work. I can't select the checklist box in the general tab?

Not currently supported, but could get the checklist to work in "no state check" at thevery least. Please send "aircraft.cfg" to support.

The plane will eventually be fully supported in MSFS later.

 

May I jump in here?  Would really see the Lear al least a little bit supported with MCE. Can.t get the checklist to run even with "no state checked"

OK, we'll do that in next update.

The plane is already fully supported in Prepar3D and FSX, so pretty familiar.

Please download latest version V3.1.1.8 using the usual link (or request it from [email protected]

You can  use a lot more more than the checklist feature. See how far you get with it. Not fully tested yet, but since it's more or less the same plane that was supported in P3D, the FO should be able t handle it. Eventually contact support to get the remaining items sorted.

thanks will try as soon as possible
