Hi. I tried searching for this but didn't find anything similar, so sorry if I missed it. I'd been trying to delay starting the APU until I needed it. I was running on External Power up until then. Then, I pressed the APU power and the FO seemed to turn the External Power off at that point (which made everything go blank until the APU had started). Is there a way to fit starting-the-APU-10minutes-before-pushback into the flows successfully? Thanks very much.

This module has been developed for use with the FlyByWire Airbus A32NX Neo running on MSFS 2022. Special thanks to Joe Herwig for his inspiration, initial design and project management for this work. The module requires use with LINDA 4.1.4 and FSUIPC7 7.3.2 or later. It can be used with the Stable (0.7.4), Development and Experimental version from FlyByWire (using the FlyByWire Installer). However, some features are only accessible via the latest Development and Experimental releases. See Note below on Lvars. Due to delays with MSFS exposing Lvars to FSUIPC7 on start-up, it is strongly recommended that you start MSFS2020, load the FBW A32NX ready to fly and wait a minute before starting FSUIPC7 and LINDA. It is also recommended to click Restart LUA Engine as the last thing. Users of previous beta release are advised that a major renaming exercise has been carried out. All functions have been named according to the panel and sub-panel positions plus the role and action. For example, A32nx_OVHD_EXTLT_BEACON_toggle for Overhead Panel, External Lights and Beacon Lights. Users should check all button assignments and reassign as required. A full list of functions is provided via the link below. Default configuration setup files are provided for all VRi MCP panels and CDU2/3. Version 1.0.3 includes the following changes: Rework Transponder/TCAS Switches Fixed InitCustomEvents() operation Added Overhead Crew Only Supply Button Fixed Landing Lights not illuminating Improved VRi FCU Altitude INC/DEC Added Radar PWS Switch Fixed error in VRi FCU Altitude DEC Added missing VRI FCU DspShow calls Development work is ongoing by FlyByWire and every effort will be made to ensure the module supports any updates. At the time of issue, there is one issue outstanding: There is an Issue with MSFS ATC AI which resets the COM1 frequency if changed. It is necessary to turn off ATC AI option as follows: in MSFS go to Assistance Options and Piloting. Turn off AI Radio Comms (ATC). The module makes use of a number of extra features provide by FSUIPC7 including WAPI/WASM. These features allow LINDA to access the Lvars and offsets as well Hvar and .EVT events. Users will need to make several changes to their set up to fully exploit these features. Edit FSUIPC-WASM.INI to add the entry LvarScanDelay=x where x is 45 or 60. See FSUIPC7 Advanced User document pg 45. Edit FSUIPC7.INI to add the entry UseAirLocForProfiles=Yes under the [General] block. Ensure block [WAPI] / EnableWAPI=Yes is present in FSUIPC7.INI. The FBW A32NX should display around 1450 to 1500 Lvars and 220 Hvars. Any value different from these or the warning will require that MSFS and FSUIPC7/LINDA be restarted. Report any problems and issues on the LINDA Support sub-forum. Download FlyByWire A32NX Module 1.0.3 SSL Download Previous FlyByWire A32NX Module 1.0.2a SSL List of FBW A320 Functions NOTE ON LVARS The FBW project is developing all the time with new functionality being continuously added. This means the data used to access the model is also changing with new Lvars being introduced. There are normally in excess of 1300 Lvars used to interface with the A32NX and this can be checked by clicking on the LINDA Tracer link (top left). If you are only seeing around 1000 Lvars not all functionality will be working and some errors may be generated (see LINDA Console or FSUIPC7.log). It is recommended that you try installing the Development or Experimental versions and restart everything.

Hi fellow pilots Here is my latest video, featuring the FBW A32NX between Nice, France and Agadir, Morocco. Kind and constructive comments welcome !
