I can't get mine to respond to a key and I don't know if this has been fixed in an update.

I can't find any updates or a download section on the Cockspur website. How do I tell which version of the C510 is installed in my PC?

Bump.  C'mon guys, I'm not the only who might have made a mistake buying a Cockspur plane. Please help.

Quote from the official forum thread for the Mustang!

“INOP buttons: all the environmental panel (except for the AC on/off). Not a big deal. Then the battery test under Avionics. FADEC inop. And the keyboard, sadly. Finally, the warning test knob.”

All inop… so as you say! “…mistake buying a Cockspur plane…”

(Don’t feel bad I made the same mistake, flies great but really just a fun plane to fly around, not too realistic.)

I doubt it, but it doesn't take away from the fun I've been having with the airplane. There's a manual inside the main c510 documentation folder that should tell you the version you have. There's also Cockspur Discord. This video is a good one to watch:

It does pretty much the same thing that I do with every other light jet that I have. I can fly from airport to airport, VFR & IFR, with a working G1000 & AP and have fun while doing it!

I wouldn't say it's not realistic, just not fully modeled. I've had the FSX, P3D, and XPlane versions and they never went on sale for $5. Those were true to the real thing yet the platforms they sat on sucked. This is the best platform and there's no other C510 so be grateful that at least we have a beautiful looking & working model that some of us can enjoy.

I found the manual here: C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Official\Steam\cockspur-aircraft-c510\Resources\Documentation.
I purchased my copy at the Marketplace. In the manual it says version 1.03. Is this the current version?

I clicked on the Downloads section on the website but it says there are no downloads.

I clicked on the Discord link found on the website but it says Invalid Link.  Do you have a link that works?

1.0.3 is the latest version from the Marketplace. When there's an update, the marketplace will give you a notice that an update is available.

Log into Discord first. Then click on this link: https://discord.com/invite/VET6VAu3Jr

I purchased mine at the time from thier web site. My version say's 1.1.0

Marketplace version & Store version

Thank you for the quick reply. Appreciate your time.

I clicked on the above link for Discord and I get the same error message "Invite Invalid". (I already have a Discord account). Do you have another link?

Wow. That's a first for me. Presumably two current versions but different version numbers?

I got the link from the Cockspur website:

https://cockspur.eu/

Scroll to the bottom to find the Discord logo.

BTW, it's not confusing because the plane has not been updated in over a year.

Thanks for the link, but that's the same link I've been clicking all along and I keep getting "Invite Invalid".

My Marketplace version is 1.03 but @Ed_S_Pilot's version is 1.1.0 (see quote below).  If they're the same version why the different version numbers. What am I missing?

Does the keyboard work in the most current version?

Batswitch is flaky. Try the batwich instead. On rye.

Or the Batburger on a sesame seed bun!
