Hy guys. I'm reading all the discussions about FsHud, but it's better to directly ask you some questions.

Do I need to use FSTL or AIG for traffic with fshud, or it injects traffic by itself too?

Does it manages "pushback facing north, south" etc when clearing for pushback?

What about arrival/departing runways for traffic too? Or there's still the risk of of landing/departing in opposite direction of AI traffic?

I'm tempted to buy it, but first I'd like to clarify my doubts. Thanks.

 

1- Your choice.  It can use the default traffic BGL's but in my case I use AIG

2- Not at this time.   It just clears you for pushback and you have to know which way you need to be facing.

3- I have not had issues with AI traffic coming in the opposite direction as FSHud controls it.  It works great for me.

I asked this earlier on in the thread. I use AIG Traffic... I just purchased FSHUD and I'm not sure whether I need to run the AIG Traffic Controller or not? Also, in settings do the Traffic Source: BGL   AIG  External boxes have to be checked?

You do not start the Traffic Controller and only the AIG box has to be checked in this case.

I someone doubt that,, PF3 which I use has been around for many years and it sees other AI  traffic. 

Hope you are right Bob, but over at their Discord it was said that BATC will not see or control the traffic.

No it won't.  All other AI traffic will be invisible to Beyond ATC

Airport Finder is another great option.   It shows weather, airports with GSX Profiles, etc.  Very complete.

I bought from them twice and had no issues.   Delivery was as expected.

Agree.  It's a great software.  To be able to use these scenarios you have to have the Advanced Edition.  Well worth it.   Constantly updated and also now they added flows for a virtual co-pilot.    

EDIT:  Also to download the scenarios from the app you have to have the airplane selected that supports scenarios.  For example Fenix.  Then you will be able to download the scenario file plus a weather preset file for that plane.  One thing I noticed is that after downloading the weather preset you have to restart MSFS to be able to use it.   

Make sure the parking brake is off when you run the test

Glad it helped!  @FSHud is there a way to preserve the user options after an update?  Or is this driven by the fact that we are in Beta?

Check the options for traffic in FSHud.  For me when I install a new version it selects all sources of traffic (default BGL plus AIG plus FSLTL).  I have to untick the ones i don't need...  Maybe this helps...

Thanks to both.  I was referring to the cockpit indicator.   I will buy the plane this weekend 🙂 

A few other questions for @DC1973 do you plan to add a digital display for the MACH speed?  Also, I believe in Concorde you had an arrow in the air speed indicator showing the maximum allowed speed at a certain stage of the flight.  Lastly, will we get markers to define V1, VR, etc. in the speed indicator? 

Great to hear this.   That will be a great addition and I like that users will be able to choose what option they want.   Keep up the great work. 

Thanks Ray for starting this.   Do we know when a true INS will be available?

I would suggest KGSO.  Not too big but it has a Fedex hub.

Sorry to drift a bit but does anyone know how the Mapbox licensing work after you use the free images allocated to the public token?  

I just asked in the FSHud forum when this "feature" will be available.

I used PATC for several years.  One thing I never liked is the lack of engagement of the developer with the community and the fact that he releases an update once year or less frequently.  I would like to understand what will be his commitment going forward specially with a dynamic platform like MSFS.

@alpha117 you seem to work closely with the developer.  Can you share his expected commitment to support a dynamic platform like MSFS? vs a once a year update that we saw in P3D (actually the last update was in April 2021).  This will better inform potential buyers.

I looked into the binding last night and the default binding for engines 1 and 2 switches are also assigned to other commands (like opening fuel valves etc) that I eliminated.  So I created a profile for the fenix and removed those.   Now I can use the full quadrant again.  😀

Again I recommend you watch the video I referenced above.  It helped a lot.  

Agree with you.  For now I am using mouse clicks until this is sorted...

Just watch the video and try that binding....  It seems to work for him.   I also reported this to the Fenix team.

Had the same issue.   Ended up unbinding the TCA throttle master switch and all was good.  Today I saw a YT video from 320 Sim Pilot explaining the correct binding.  I have to try that.

What time is BlackBox711 coming online?

Tomorrow starting at 15:00 UTC

I have a question regarding AIG traffic.   I moved from BGL to the AIGFP format using AIG Traffic Controller.   Will FSHUD be able to interpret these plans?
