Going to do a clean reinstall of the WT430 this afternoon and report back.

Deleted and reinstalled the WT430 and TRK still won't follow the flight plan.  I can get it to follow a "Direct to an airport" entry but not an actual flight plan from waypoint to waypoint...whether it's a manually entered FP or thru a Simbrief import.

  • You can rent it for a day for free.  Click on the plane and then click Free Trial.  You actually have to click on the little icon of the plane as if you were going to buy it. I'm actually pleasan

  • Nice, but after watching this, I can't help but think JustFlight need to update the HS748 and get that out of the door.

  • Better than none.

Only follows the TRK when entering a "Direct" to waypoint entry.  Also, and this is weird, when using the Mid Pacific freeware livery my RPM gauges are going backward so that when I reduce power to 14,200 the RPM gauge shows an increase into the 17,000+ range.

I may need to reinstall the YS-11 too.  something is odd here.

the Working title 430 comes default with the sim, do you mean you're deleting it from the content manager and reinstalling it?

That sounds like you have multiple corrupted installs for some reason as I can't replicate the issues you're having unfortunately. Recommend reinstalling both the YS-11 and the 430. Does it work for the 650 for you?

Seems like a great little turboprop to me I plan on using it a lot down in New Zealand.

Reinstalled the 430 and the YS-11 and that seemed to do the trick.  Appreciate the help.

Quick question for the group...

What kind of TAS are you getting when cruising in teh mid teens (14-18000 feet) at 14,2000 rpms?  I'm getting around 275 with a rather pronounced nose down AoA.

I'd need to double check TAS but in terms of IAS, I am cruising using 14,500 rpm based on real-world documentation I've seen (maybe some operators use 200), and am running near the placarded speed limits by altitude (noted around the edge of the ASI). TAS-wise that sounds roughly correct from what I can recall. 

I am too getting a pronounced nose-down but it tapers off if operating at FL190 or higher, service ceiling being FL240 if I recall correctly. 

Has anyone been able to track down an actual pilot's manual for the YS-11 yet? 

Not referring to the iniBuilds manual, I have that.

Fingers crossed that the first update fixes the stutter/fps drop every 3 seconds.  I'm one of the many people experiencing this issue.

I got the plane a few days ago, has been fun.

I find it well behaved. 

Hopping around the Pacific, does fairly well on shorter strips too.

Would love to know the specs of whatever rig(s) they used to make that video!

It’s a shame that it hasn’t been and likely won’t be updated to fix the sounds, fix the interior hole in the cabin (across from the entrance when steps are open) and a plethora of other items pointed out on the Inibuilds YS-11 forum as well as the MSFS official forums. I don’t understand having a forum for support when updates are not coming.

Support costs time and money and these Famous Flyer/Local Legend planes are built to a strict budget and timescale
