This training outfit use A2A's Comanche to demonstrate techniques in their engine management course Airplane Engine Operations. Everything works like the real engine, how to clean fouled plugs, etc.

Thanks for sharing. I actually flew Comanche IRL. I ferried it with my friends from San Diego to Dallas with one stop in Albuquerque. So actually logged like 10 hours in it delivered in one piece on some private field near Dallas 🙂

Too bad that nick is bound by the limitations of the sim. I think he should jump to the next level and begin simulating stuff like that outside the sim

I was thinking, couldn't he have the fuel switches not actuate the in-sim fuel cutoff command, but instead have some custom code to wait some random period (20-35 seconds) and only THEN actuate the in-sim fuel cutoff command

just musing away

Before you know it, he would then have some things operating outside the sim.

For anyone who likes the Caravan: check out Google Street View at Arusha airport HTAR in Tanzania. Especially the isolated dots on the tarmac. Amazing 😲

Has anyone had issues during takeoff right after lift off the BS-Caravan states crashed then locks FS2024 into a continuous loop? Has happened twice now (each attempt to fly after purchase) and all engines elements and functions were fine and in the green ranges. Worst part is it forces me to halt the sim via Steam force quit. very odd and on restart it all shows to be fine. Just purchased this bird and really didn't feel the installation went well.

Black Square continues to improve with the release of version 1.2. Just Flight - Black Square - Caravan Professional Bundle

New Features:

• Added dynamic under-wing registration to default liveries with better feature support for livery painters.
• Added numerous sounds pertaining to engine damage during startup, shutdown, at all power settings, and several turbine specific engine failures, like compressor stall/surging.
• Sounds for all exterior interactions, like opening and closing doors, are now audible during walkarounds.
• Added seamless support for the native water rudder keybinding while still supporting the tablet interface triggered water rudder cable failure.
• Engine damage will now influence ITT beyond 40% damage.
• Previously, only crew members consumed oxygen, so as to extend the effective range of the aircraft at altitudes where only crew oxygen was required by regulations. Now, passengers will only consume oxygen when the indicated altitude is above 14,750 feet.

Bug Fixes:

• Rewrote code relating to the ventilation blowers, as unexpected electrical behavior resulted from old code from the Analog Caravan.
• Fixed visual synchronization problem with the tablet failure interface when failures were triggered from HTML events, in preparation for collaboration with online services.
• Further refinement of propeller and engine sound leveling inside and outside the aircraft.
• Turbine propeller blade angle animation was mistakenly driven from simplified code from previous Black Square aircraft, which has now been replaced with improved behavior in all other Black Square aircraft.
• The fuel selectors off warning system will no longer activate when the firewall fuel cutoff handle is pulled. The fuel selector off warning horn will also be deactivated when the START CONT circuit breaker is pulled, as the two circuit breakers were previously configured in parallel, not series.
• Increased empty weight of the Cargomaster to 4,040lbs to reflect inclusion of the Cargopod. Useful load and full fuel payload numbers have been adjusted accordingly.
• Yoke-mounted electric trim switches will now only function when the autopilot is powered in addition to the electric trim actuator circuit.

Turn off crash detection in MSFS settings.

It's completely borked and many 3rd party devs advice turning it off.

I’ve been doing a fair few short flights in it recently. Haven’t had those issues at all. 

Probably good to do a full uninstall of the aircraft and try again.
