Yes just LC. When searching, make sure "search only public sets" is ON.

REX Atmos 2024 LC Profile
Just search in atmos for the LC profiles and activate them. I made them automatically load when I open atmos. The manual will explain this if you're not familiar.

REX Atmos 2024 LC Profile
I've struggled to get a profile that matches flying in Australia. Most have way too low visibility for our conditions . I watched a recent video where he used the LC profile for weather, atmos and enviro. What a change. Used with real weather, this looks as close as I've ever seen. Congrats to LC, whoever you are. You've really nailed it.

Phenom 300 soon? (released 18 May 26)
Agree. I would also like an option to place some static aircraft, either another phenom or the M500, in the corporate hanger as well. And maybe, change the logo's to your own company. I will have a main hanger at YMML, with smaller ones in other Capital cities.

Blackbox BN2 Islander for MS2024
I've had the same problem, it doesn't work. As Ricka47 said, I've given up on them.

I've got a Nvidia 3080 . I get 80 to 120 fps most areas. No need to upgrade. Mostly high and clouds on ultra. Looks great 👍

World Update 21: Australia Trailer
Broome looks fantastic. It really is a beautiful area. A bit has changed since I left in 2011. New tower and fire station, RFDS hanger etc. I had some elevation issues , but I disabled my community folder and all is ok now. Now to trace the offending scenery file !

World Update 21: Australia Trailer
I fly mostly in Australia, so this is great news for me. I'll be interested to see if I will still need ORBX cityscapes for Sydney and Melbourne. Also great to see Broome airport included. I worked in the old tower there for 5 years.....great memories.

A study level helo…? You had me at “study”
I've been having a ball with the TOAG Hughes 500. About as close to a study level helicopter that you'll get.

Backcountry Remote airstrips to fly into and out of
I'm enjoying the BLSQ C208 Amphibian in misty. I am trying to find a find good map of the seaplane bases in this area with no success. I am aware that a .kmz file can be imported into litttlenavmap, but doesnt seem to work for me. Any suggestions ?

BlackSquare Caravan Professional out
My amphib and supercargomaster were still showing 2020 avatars. Really ? avatars? I would rather fly the aircraft than look at avatars....

Do you have photogrammetry enabled or disabled in MSFS 2024?
I flew the H500c around Christchurch NZ and decided to give photogrammetry another try. The buildings looked melted and it looked terrible. Turned it off and it looked great. No photogrammetry for me.

Getting bored? Try a helicopter!
I'm thinking I need a better quality controller for use with helicopters. I've been looking at the VKB Gladiator premium which can be configured to not centre the grip. Is anyone using this set up for choppers , and thoughts thanks before I jump.....

Getting bored? Try a helicopter!
Check out some videos on YouTube by Matthew Crawford -let's fly ! It has helped me a lot to fine tune the sensitivities of my old Hotas X.

Getting bored? Try a helicopter!
I'm tempted mate!

Getting bored? Try a helicopter!
I pulled out my old hotas X. Works good, but it took a bit to get the sensitivities right. I think you need a hotas type controller of some sort to fly a heli. It's so different from my honeycombed A and B.

Getting bored? Try a helicopter!
I've been a flightsimmer since this all started many years ago. I normally fly GA twins ( blacksquare, A2A etc ) and love the sim. Recently, I decided to have a change and bought the TAOG H500C. What a revelation. It's been a learning curve, but I think I've got a handle on it now. This helicopter has been a great challenge, but so worthwhile. This is not auto pilot flying, but hands on all the time, with short hops between landings. Flying in the south Island in Unzud with the NZA simulations airports and scenery, discovering all the huts and remote strips ,has really given me a new experience and be become so addictive. Low level flying is where ms2024 really excells, and helicopter flying takes advantage of all that. So, if you find yourself getting a bit bored, then try the Hughes 500. I just can't stop myself.... I'm even dreaming about it.. help me !

Blackbox BN2T TDS GTNXi patch 1.0.4
I'm hearing you Ron. I think I'll do the same. Such a shame, this could be so much better. I love the Islander, but hopefully a better developer will give us a decent version one day.... The Nimbus for XP11 was great.

Blackbox BN2T TDS GTNXi patch 1.0.4
It looks like the gtn750xi doesn't work in the 2024 version. Blackbox support is not good either... No replies. Bugger.... I really wanted the TDS in this.....
-
Blackbox BN2T TDS GTNXi patch 1.0.4
I know this. But I still can't get the gtn750 xi to show up in the 2024 version. When I load the aircraft, the gtn says the pms is not loaded. Maybe I'll have activate the pms as well ? I have tried putting the patch in my community folder, tried overwriting the aircraft folder etc. still no joy. It works fine with the 2020 turbine islander.

Blackbox BN2T TDS GTNXi patch 1.0.4
Does anyone know where I can download this latest patch? I've looked high and low and the only one available on the Blackbox site is 1.1.0 and it doesn't recognize my GTNXi....

Approach Button
I engage it just before the FAF. You can do it earlier and it will couple earlier most times. That's on an RNAV approach.

Black square Bonanza and Baron soon!
I used to get camels at Ayers Rock . They would just crash through the tall boundary fences when chased off the field !
