Is there any way besides not addding passengers, to turn off passenger scoring? Very annoying and ruins a good flight every time IMO.

PS: I don't do discord.

Thanks

I was pretty disgruntled with the PAX implementation in the FSR Phenom, and I made sure Raul was aware of my frustrations every chance I had, especially since I felt the system was implemented so well in the M500. With that said, his latest update brings some significant improvements to the PAX system, and I applaud Raul for addressing the concerns. The passenger scoring is now much more in line with what I would consider realistic compared to how it was previously implemented. If you haven't updated to the latest version, I'd highly encourage you to do so!

As far as I'm aware, there isn't a way to disable passenger scoring entirely, so you'll just have to ignore it. However, I'd recommend updating to the latest version and giving it another try. I think you'll find it's a significant improvement!

Ok thanks. Seems the cabin temp drops too low during cruise unlike before the patch. Will need to figure that one out.

Can’t say that I’ve had that problem post patch personally. Keep the doors closed and the heat up with the GPU connected.

The heat controls seem broke for me.

Not a biggee since I'm mostly flying the FSW Lancair lately.

Hi... there was def no change on the heat controls in the last updates. The complete heating/cooling is not the best engineered one by Embraer and needs def some adjustment over your flight envelope (confirmed by the RW pilots btw). If you can elaborate a bit more what exactly "broke" is meaning for you, we could possibly help you on that one.

Cheers T.

Sounds like the VCS got fried (Aircon unit). Check maintenance page in the EFB, should be one of the dots in the back of the airplane. You probably left the Aircon on during shutdown. On your next flight it is therefor on during prior to start your engines which is a cause for it to fail.

This is where the passenger feedback turns into aircraft maintenance which is pretty cool!

Or left it on during startup. I use the GPU at larger airports, so I precool (or preheat) the plane prior to start. The VCS is a delicate beastie for sure!

I guess. Frankly, I can see the problem whether I pay attention to the passengers or not as I do monitor cabin/cockpit temps along with everything else. And I'm personally still not a fan of the system. I don't simulate flying charters, only family and friends who would have different tolerance levels than some of the entitled charter types, so I would love an option for more mellow family/friends type passengers. But it's fairly easy to ignore the opinions of the folks in the back if you don't like the system as it is, so that's what I do.

Also I did a reset of all systems and still had the error.

Will heed the advice given and will try again.

Flying nice now with 1 passenger and Denise, my CP. Had to max the temps. 😵

It takes a bit to understand how to set up the AC controlls properly so that the temperature stay in comfortable levels.

But nothing is broken. You just have to be agressive with it and keep an eye on the temperature.

Just got this bird yesterday. First flight ended with all 6 pax at 100% at the end, and that's with me screwing up a number of times, like forgetting to turn on the wifi until the anxious connector freaked out.

They seem a bit cold-blooded. I had the cabin temp at a nice, comfortable 70F and they were still making comments like grabbing the coffee to warm up. Was starting to wonder if I'd been chartered by nudists. ;)

I did notice the pax with the little kid was harder to please than the others, which makes sense because the status messages kept talking about the kid being obnoxious. Thought that was a nice touch.

But I also noticed that pax satisfaction drops when they need to use the toilet, which is odd because nothing's stopping them from doing so. Some use it normally, but others like the mom wait forever with their sat scores dropping. Thought that was a little odd. It's a private jet - the FA will watch the kid while you pee.

Only glaring things I noticed are that the overhead map lights aren't spotlights - they appear to be 360-degree orb lights that mainly illuminate the ceiling. And the copilot-side baro knob can be hard to push to toggle std mode if you're in the pilot's seat.

Overall, though, very impressed with this one. I thought the pax scores added a lot of interest to the cruise segment which, if we're honest, can get fairly boring in a modern plane with a full autopilot. Trying to keep all of them happy until they finally fell asleep was kinda fun.

I didn't break anything and it's brand new, so I haven't been able to play much with the maintenance toys, but I'm looking forward to that as well. Flies very nicely and the systems are very well sorted. Great addon!

I think 75 is the sweet spot for the cabin.

I'm starting to fly the Phenom more than the HJET.

I did end up in the weeds when landing at KAVX however.
