Ok, thanks Farlis.

Hello, When flying on the Fenix A320, the ATC always give me the flight number "1123". The operator name is correct (if I use an Air France livery ATC will call me Air France) but no matter what the flight number is always "1123". Is there a way to have the ATC use the flight number I have plugin the MCDU ? Is there some value to change in the aircraft.cfg ? it migh not be specific to the Fenix A320, it's just that it's the only airliner I'm using so I have noticed it.

Thanks all for your feedback, interesting to get the feeling of fellow simmer.

It is not a glass cockpit vs steam gauge preference nor a thread on the proper representation of the G1000 in the sim (thank you so much WorkingTitle) but really a user interface question. I find the G1000 usage in a sim (i.e. with no specific hardware) very cumbersome and painfull compared to other system like G3000, G5000 or GTN750 that are a lot more user friendly to use. I know that in real life it is a lot easier to user rotator than in the sim but I get to a point where I sometime decide not to fly an overall good plane (like the Kodiak) because it is ftted with a G1000 and it is a pain in the neck to use it (and yes I know there is a trick to use the keyboard instead of the rotator but still) Am I the only one who find this specific piece of avionics not suited at all for home computer simming ?

I am still unable to download the flight plan from simbrief, I think they correct this behaviour in the hotfix but nothing change. The only change is it is not stuck on the "pending" message but it does not download anything either. It is still a general issue or is it something on my end ?

I, personnaly, am super happy you at WT enhance the core avionics of the sim and give some love to the longitude. Improved avionics will benefit to all base aircraft and likely to forthcoming payware as well and I have a crush on bizjet so I found the longitude an excellent choice (in its current state it is too basic to be enjoyable and I prefer the enhanced CJ4 for the time being) So please keep up the good work and thanks for all what you have already done.

Thanks that did the trick.

When I launch AIM (after the update) it just stuck at "load airport". I has always been very long to boot but this time it is an hour and an half and it is still hanging at "load airport", so it is a show stopper on my side to wait 2 hours to be able to update a soft. I notice that in my AIM folder I have all the zipped version of the previous AIM software (so up to AIM 1.1.0.85) Could it be the reason why it is so painfuly long to boot ? Can I delete previous zipped version of AIM ?

Did someone know how to select the means to get airborne ? I only have a tow aircraft each time. Is there a function to assign ? And if so what shall I look for ?

Use your rudder left right a few time to tell the tow aircraft to take off.

Did you have some CTD since you use FSTL ? I had 2 CTD since I install it, the event viewer is not very helpful (the application error is flightsimulator.exe, ok I kinda have guess it), I suspect it might be related to FSTL considering previously I did not had crash and it is the only thing that changeon my installation in the meantime. On the other hand I had a bunch of other fly with FSTL with no issue so just want to know I you experience some random CTD since you use FSTL or if I have to look for another culprit. Thanks

Yes I was thinking multiplayer. Basically when it’s an AI the model is an AIG model, nice an pretty but if it is another human player then MSFS use an AI aircraft to match whatever aircraft the other player is flying. But if you have multiplayer set to group only then I don’t know.

Isn’t that just other player ?

I play around with the fenix app and yes on my rig selecting the GPU as the render display is the best option. CPU make the display sluggish, selecting the intel onboard GPU make the display freeze totaly. So it's a bit of a pity because I'm GPU limited and so was expecting a better performance with the option to have the CPU or IGPU handle the display but either something is wrong with my IGPU setting or the Fenix idea is good but not properly implemented or a least not usefull for my particular case. Anyway with GPU selected it's reasonably smooth

I'm having the same experience, in terms of FPS overall its not that bad but the display are clearly not smotth at all. i7 6700K and GTX 1060 6Gb

Thanks all. So no clear Winner. The state saving option and random failure looks appealing for me (did someone say A2A ?) So I might go for the 310 first and wait for the 414 to be out of beta then.

One has to ask the question I suppose. So I have seen some review on YouTube and both aircraft looks very nice indeed. They are more or less in the same price category and type of aircraft. For those of you that own both is there a one you prefer over the other and if so why ? Appreciate your though as I’m not sure I will buy both (or at least not just now)

Thanks for the reply all. That's a bit weird that some of us receive an e-mail and other don't. Not an issue for this particular update as I'm now aware of it but if there are any other update in the future I expect to receive a notification from the vendor like...well any other vendor I deals with.

For the ones that buy the Kodiak on the Dev site did you all receive an e-mail to notify you of the update ? I have not received anything. Checked my spam folder, nothing. It's a bit weird to not warn your customer that you have an update ready. Not everyone is cheking Avsim or other sim site dailly (Yea I know what on earth am I doing for not having my dailly dose of siming 😂 )

It's just a pun because Airbus rename the CSeries in Airbus A220. I guess a joke, and a good one. Also did you notice the Pax in the airport are the same one as in the SWS Kodiak ?

Yes had the exact same issue after having waited like 45 minutes for AIM to update in the first place. They need to fix their server issue and overall app speed because it starting to be a real issue to lose 30 minutes and more each time you want to check there is no update to AIM.

Thanks @sd_flyer, do you know the reason for such design ? EDIT: Got an explanation from another forum, just a simplified design to the max so that you can repair easily:

No the rudder is centered. But looking at some shot from the real aircraft it seems that there is also this weird impression in the real aircraft. Not too sure the reason why.

Hello all, I have an issue with the visual representation of the rudder pedal on the kodiak. Visualy it seems like there is a right input on the pedal. I don't feel this right input on the plane however, it flight straight no problem. Do you have the same issue than I have ? Is it a bug or for whatever reason is it normal that the right pedal seems to be applied. Here below a pick, my ruder is neutral and there is no trim whatsoever.

NXI. And I do not have this S turn issue with other aircraft (equiped with G1000 or not)
