  1. Really a minor issue: GW and fuel seems to be displayed in lbs and not in kg´s at the FI panel in it´s specific gauge after pressing the button for display. Units are set to metric at the EFB.

  2. Started by Mike,

    I was looking at the advertising on the store page for the aircraft. I went ahead and pulled the circuit breakers for the INS 1 and INS 2 power, CAPT HSI, and the following and none of those breakers seem to be connected to their associated system or indicator. Is this intended? What is ini was defining as "complete"? Thanks.

  3. I've noticed selecting IAS hold (pitch) at 250 knots during a climb out with climb EPR doesn't perform well. Maybe this is a quirk of the real aicraft but the speed goes to as high as 320 knots without any increase in climb rate. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks 😄

  4. Somehow I can’t stop the APU. Tried several things but the damn thing keeps on running. Assistance is all off. My guess is that I missed something. Help is appreciated

  5. All my other planes (Fenix/PMDG/iniBuilds) are fine and work perfectly the steering and throttle. The Tristar is giving me grief. I need around 50-60% throttle to get the plane moving. When its gets doing and picks up speed over 20knots, I have to back off the throttle a tiny bit and it's enough to decelerate the plane to an eventual stop. It's like the brakes are stuck on (they are not of course). Then comes the steering. I don't really have any. I am using a Virpil joystick with twist feature for the rudder (I don't have pedals). Again it's fine for every other aircraft I own. On the Tristar, when I try to turn a corner when taxiing, it will start t…

  6. The barber pole on the FO airspeed indicator seems to always show about 10 knots lower than the airspeed indicator on the CPT side.

    This one could be a me problem but I'm finding if I have the AT set to TM sometimes I'll disconnect on its own and go back to where my throttles are set. Could this be due to throttle noise? Thanks

    Hi, Congratulations on the release! I’ve been enjoying flying the Tristar, it’s a great model with a lot of potential. I noticed something with the TM switch on the glareshield. I expected it to set climb EPR, but instead it shows 000 and commands thrust levers to IDLE. It only sets climb EPR after I turn on the autopilot. Is that how it’s supposed to work? I have setup the PMS properly. Secondly, when flying in FD AOA mode (TOGA) after takeoff the lateral flight director bar is frozen to the center of the 'bird' rather than giving guidance, despite VOR mode being switched on and showing white in FMA. (I am using the GPS) Again, is that the way it's suppose…

    Pilot/Copilot DME readout mismatch as per attached screenshot. This was just after retuning NAV2. Once the pilot DME clicked under 100nm, the Copilot DME caught up.

    For me, the CVR needle on the appears to be missing in the gauge. When I press the test button, nothing happens.

  11. First of all, I am very grateful to ini for providing such a great plane, but there are still some problems. For example, when I use the handle to fly, the nose wheel will twitch when turning on the ground, unable to turn normally, and the animation of the foot rudder is gone, and the foot rudder twitches together. I don't know if the handle players have encountered this problem. I hope the staff of ini can answer it. Thank you.😁

    Hi, I want to post again (in the correct topic this time 😅) the issues I'm having with the GNS 530. I thought this had been fixed as I mentioned in a previous post, but this is continuing to be an issue for me. In a few instances, the GNS 530 is not working upon loading the plane. Confirming that there is electrical power as well as the radio master switches turned on, I cannot get past the database screen (OK/Enter to advance). Reloading the plane is hit or miss as far as getting the unit to properly load. Then, as I'm continuing on with my first flight in INS+GPS mode (the INS driving the autopilot), I saw the GNS 530 reboot on its own. No flight plan data loa…

  14. Hey fellow TriStar fans, I’ve been deep-diving into the new IniBuilds L-1011 for MSFS 2024 since release day, testing it thoroughly against the real Delta Airlines L-1011 Pilots Operating Manual (normal, abnormal & emergency sections). I’m sharing this as constructive feedback so the community knows exactly what to expect right now. This detailed list should help highlight areas that still need attention. If any of the IniBuilds team or beta testers see this and want screenshots, more context from the Delta POH, or a walk-through of the real procedures, feel free to reach out — I’d be happy to share everything I’ve found. Quick note: I had planned to st…

    There doesn’t seem to be any of the blue ‘in transit’ lights modeled when selecting the 1A XFR or 3A XFR switches The corresponding TANK 1A & TANK 3A switches do not have the XFR light modeled. They only have a QTY light modeled. See attached images for reference

  16. None of the lights on the Windshield Heat panel work.

  17. The generator KWs and KVARs always show 0 no matter the generator load.

    On the ground with the engines off, the LO PR lights on the engine driven hydraulic pumps should be illuminated, but it’s not. See attached photos for reference

    Hello iniBuilds, first of all, let me assure you that I am fully aware that the version we are currently seeing by now is probably a few builds old and the issue I am seeing and reporting on might have already been fixed. At the moment, from all the video's I am seeing there is no visual indication of approach minima in the L-1011 other than the RA gauge, which is only used when setting CAT II/III radio altimeter minima. So, for any other type of approach, including a normal CAT I ILS, there's no procedurally correct way to display a visual reminder of the approach minima. I've taken the time to check a handful of online pictures of the Tristar cockpit and all …

    I don’t found nothing in documents but is it possible do disconnect rudder and tiller so to use an external tiller axis controller? Cause tiller axis works but when I use rudder it moves also the tiller, thanks
