The aerobatic string doesn't seem to behave accurately, as though the MSFS model isn't catching enough flow at the windscreen. Maybe the string isn't useful and can be deleted... A bug: the string set to "on" in the EFB is persistent for reloads, but the string never appears until you return to the EFB and toggle off/on again.

I did read the manual..... It was there before version 1.0.4, I used it, but where is the switch to pop the canopy? Pilot turning jaundice and there is no pilot relief tube😁 Love this bird though.

Hi, On the G3x with the fuel main page open, go to the Fuel Calc page and then back to the main page. Both the oil pressure and temperature bars lose their color bands. Closing and reopening the fuel page rectifies this. Cheers, John

Hello, I have just charted out the level speed performance at FL300. The chart indicates over-performance at lower power settings and under-performance at higher power settings. I've attached the Level Speed Performance Chart for the CT-133 and have annotated the results on the chart. It would appear to be either an airframe drag or engine power issue. I' will be charting out another one at a lower altitude to see if there's a correlation. Regards, John

Understanding that the 230 centerline tips should always be selected on after engine start due to the pressurization issue.............. Assuming a full fuselage tank when starting, did you code to reflect the fuel burn rate even at idle to overcome the fuel transfer rate from the tips so that no overflow will occur out from the Sabre drain? Many thanks DH

Purchased yesterday, so newbie at the T-33 but... I can get on course, level and controlled climb without issue. Turn the autopilot on to track the course and it is hard right bank, nose to the ground and play Taps for the pilot. I have tried using the panel AP and the screen AP and both insist on killing me. I have even uninstalled and reinstalled thinking it was a bad load. Possible hint, the light(s) are inop on the panel version. They function on the screen version but that means nothing to the operation. Wearing out the ejection seat, need some help.

Dear Inibuilds devs, recently purchased the T-33 because I fell to your advertising and was impressed by the fact that you dealt with an actual owner and operator of the aircraft to faithfully recreate it. I am amazed by the visuals and many parts of this simulation. However I see some weakpoints that I just don't want to accept after this very promising advertisement and the fact that many parts of this aircraft are outstanding, please continue development on it. Eye candy is going to get those planes into people's hangars, but system depth, immersion, sound and flight dynamics will get them out there again to actually be flown regularly, and that is hopef…

The gyrocompass agrees with the wet compass and BDHI when I'm heading 050, but on the 230 reciprocal the gyro reads 245 when wet compass and BDHI are correct at 230. Attached are VR screenshots, grainy due to sharpening for display.

Standard engine issues. Rolls Royce Nene 10 I’ve been doing some flying to test out the Nene 10 as currently modelled. I’ve come across a few issues that differ from the real world Nene 10. Granted it’s been about 30 years since I’ve worked on the CT-133 but these are the things that stand out to me. I’ll begin with the start. OAT @ 15°C, winds calm EGT lags severely during the start. Engine is at idle before EGT is even off the minimum needle indication of 200°C. Digital indicator showing 171°C and climbing. After RPM stable @ 24%, EGT keeps climbing to 586°C after several seconds. The Nene 10 EGT system is quick reacting and has no real p…

Speedbrakes can be operated without electrical or hydraulic power, so that needs to be corrected. Wheel brakes don't have enough effect to remain stopped at 85%. They also can't steer the aircraft without kicking rudder pedals, though I'm not sure MSFS code allows true caster steering.

Does she has it?, cause i cannot find it and during longer trips with classic cockpit layout it would be handy to trim her properly.

hi, i googled and found nothing, would be cool to know general parameters of both engines for know what i got when choice one or another thank you.

Hello, everywhere you can read that the T-33 engine takes 15 seconds from idle to full power. This is quite typical for early jet engines. However, in your T-33 the engine takes only a few seconds from idle to full power. It would be great if this could be adjusted. After all, it is one of the main reasons why the T-33 exists. Many P-80 pilots struggled with the engine's slow response during a go-around. After several accidents Lockheed decided to build a trainer and the T-33 was born. A more realistic engine response would certainly improve the T-33 experience in the sim 🙂 Greetings Tim

hi, is it can be true somewhere in future? i don't hate tip tanks so much as i do for other external tanks, but clean version would be really cool. i think:)

Found a new minor issue on this last flight using the modern cockpit. There is a typo on the fuel level page on the glass display. The "Wing" and "LE" should be reversed. The gallons readout numbers on that display are correct and match both the fuel switch positions and MSFS drop down GUI as to which fuel is being used. But the labeling on the digital display for those two tanks is backwards.

Hi, Have been enjoying the T-33. As you mentioned that you are working on future updates, here are some little things that I have not seem mentioned elsewhere: If you turn the generator switch to off, the generator red light does not illuminate. Generator off plus battery off turns off the engine. The starter switch should spring back to center. The alternate pitch trim switch in down (emergency) does not cut the stick switch, but when up (normal) it does. The ILS yellow light is for the Marker Beacon, right? It should not be on all the time the ILS/VOR/TACAN is active. When the artificia…

Firstly, I am loving the T-33, and believe it has one of the most plausible flight models for jets in msfs. Secondly, I have noticed several minor issues. The pedestal light on the right canopy flickers intermittently in my peripheral view(I fly in VR), the oxygen blinker seems to be non functional, unless I'm doing something incorrectly, and the elevator trim seems too effective to me. Just a slight bump on my hat switch has a quite large effect. Hopefully you can address these issues in the next patch

hi, thank you for this piece of art. everything looking cool inside, i don't look outside too much so can't judge really. but we have one elephant in the room. artificial horizon totally broken, and i didn't found any single post about that, like only i see that. about ctd i really forgot about that in msfs long time ago, now when i take t-33 after some flight about 30minute-hour, probably more some time. it's gonna be crash to desktop. all time i take 100 fuel, without instructor, change pilot to 140. 120+~20 suit. so use some not standard scheme. i don't use any mods so far, that can change something, except simfx, probably some conflict i don't know, and honestly don'…

Just a respectful suggestion. You may wish to do this. You might not. Concerning the VOR head used in the T-Bird; This is one of the old remote heads without a TO/FROM indicator. I'm just wondering if you might consider either adding a TO/FROM indicator to the instrument face or possibly changing the unit out for one that contains a TO/FROM indicator. These old remote units required some fancy math work to ascertain your location after the OBS centers on the two radials available to the unit in order to nail down the right answer for the TO/FROM question. I suggest this in the spirit that the T-Bird is SO well done that "pilots" will be wanting to use it for cr…

Hi, Great you put in the TACAN receiver in the cockpit!!! The switch between VOR/ILS and TACAN works and functions. Only the RMI does not show the bearing to the TACAN like it suppost to do? Also the second digit of the TACAN is very hard to read from pilots position, the tooltip is also blank. Marcel

Hiya, The hot swapping of the modern and classic panel is very nice. Only when switching from modern to classic the AP disconnects. So far i prefer to fly the classic panel and use the basic AP commando's of MSFS (Z, CTRL+H, CTRL_A etc etc). In the classic panel, the key Z (autopilot ON/OFF) does not work, or it is briefly ON and then turn OFF again. Is there a way to correct this and leave the AP ON, in what every panel you are? Thx, Marcel
