  1. A350 Airliner V1.0.8 Update 🚀

    This update brings a wide array of enhancements, fixes, and new features to the iniBuilds A350 Airliner. Key highlights include major improvements to the step climb logic for better long-haul performance, a comprehensive overhaul of ECAM systems and logic with realistic failure scenarios, and numerous fixes across art, sounds, and systems. As always, we've worked closely with real-world A350 experts to bring even more depth and authenticity to your experience.

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    Xbox Update: We are working very hard to prepare an Xbox build as soon as possible. We are currently going through testing and optimization so you can have the best experience possible.

    Step climbs
    We have expanded the step climb function as it was previously limited. Pilots can now enter an increased number of steps manually or via SimBrief import. Combined with the auto step climb feature fully optimum long-haul routes can be enjoyed with maximum virtual efficiency.

    Enhanced ECAM logic and additions
    The ELEC and FCTL ECAMs have had a huge overhaul with the assistance of one of our qualified A350 engineers. The failure states have been reviewed in detail and associated system failures and redundancies have been added where possible in the simulation. 
    All failures can be triggered via the OIS which has also undergone a refresh in this regard with failure triggers being organised by ATA chapter.

  2. iniBuilds A300-600R Premium V1.0.3 Changelog Items 🚀

    Hello!

    Last week we did some fixes to the windshield behaviour that were affecting users and updated our liveries available for download via iniManager. With over 60 NEW liveries available to download via the iniManager - you won’t be struggling for choice! Some of the latest liveries include; Delta, Air Afrique, Alitalia, Singapore and many more!

    FlightSimulator2024_3s6zjFY1Pk.png

    We mentioned a larger update on the iniBuilds A300-600R Airliner, which is now available and we have some more information on what we have done below! 

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    The gear suspension limits have been tweaked to give the classic nose down look of the A300 based on community feedback. The nose has been lowered by approximately 2-3 degrees boasting a more authentic rotation feel and improved ground handling. 

    FlightSimulator2024_EE1dSQ9ziA.png

    Added custom engine windmilling effect and re-tuned animation to better reflect start up movement. The "N1 windmill" refers to the unpowered rotation of the low-pressure turbine and fan in the engine due to airflow. The animation does vary with windspeed.

    FlightSimulator2024_hWhU60ttfq.png

    One of the key elements of feedback on this project was performance so both systems and art have worked very hard to improve this. We have refactored code components based on insights gained from the A350 project to reduce WASM crashes and improve overall stability.  

    On art side we have multiple optimizations to 3D models, visual effects, and animations that have been implemented in the plane, aimed at improving performance for CPU-limited users. Specifically, we have reduced the 3D model node count, optimized the overall skinned bone count, and introduced several lighting improvements—all without noticeably compromising visual fidelity. Many of these enhancements were informed by our work on our recently released A350 airliner, where minimal performance overhead required a rigorous approach to optimization from the outset. In testing, we’ve seen an improvement of 5-10 FPS for CPU limited users. 

    FlightSimulator2024_e6mqXlh1x6.png
     
    One new feature is the standby compass! The standby compass system is a traditional, analogue compass that provides a backup for navigating the aircraft in case the main electronic navigation systems failure. It offers a reliable and non-electrical source of magnetic heading data and is fully modelled in the A300 to deploy from its stowed position located in the area above the centre pillar.  

    FlightSimulator2024_yic8ypDpEw.png

    We have also added a custom brake heat visual effect added to depict the transfer of energy during rapid decelerations to the brake discs.

  7. A350 Airliner V1.0.7 Update 🚀

    Another week, another update! This will be the last weekly build (for the foreseeable future) as we work on longer term, more complex enhancements and features.

    More details below but some important highlights include enhanced SimBrief integration and commentary on some key issues and what is being done to resolve them!

    Xbox Update: We are working very hard in preparing an Xbox build for release as soon as possible. The product is currently undergoing testing and optimization processes so you may have the best experience possible. 

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    New Ground Services Feature – Air Stairs
    We’re excited to introduce a brand-new ground services feature for the iniBuilds A350: integrated air stairs. Fully controllable via the OIS, these animated air stairs seamlessly deploy to doors 1L, 2L, and 4L, providing an immersive and convenient boarding option for all users, without the need for GSX.

    image.png

    Whether you’re at a remote stand or simply prefer not to use third-party tools, these built-in stairs offer a clean and reliable solution. They are also fully compatible with airport airbridges.

    Enjoy a more versatile and visually polished ground handling experience—right out of the box.

    Note: This feature is only available when COUATL (GSX) is disabled.


    Introducing further SimBrief Integration
    We're excited to unveil deeper SimBrief integration in the iniBuilds A350 directly within the OIS (Onboard Information System). Say goodbye to switching between apps and windows — now you can plan your entire flight, from departure to arrival, right from the cockpit.

    FlightSimulator2024_Gmq6zFLNfl.png

    With just a few clicks, create and access your SimBrief flight plan, review routing, fuel, payload, and weather information, and load it straight into the aircraft. It’s smooth, fast, and keeps you fully immersed in your flying experience.

    While we're thrilled to offer this feature in its current form, we will keep enhancing it as new options become available in the planner.

    Note: This feature is only available when a Navigraph account is connected via the OIS (FLTS OPS MENU > OPTIONS > 3RD PARTY page).

    Engine & Pitot Cover Logic Reintroduced

    We’ve re-implemented engine and pitot covers to boost immersion on the ground. The pitot covers now use the MSFS 2024 SDK pitot flag dynamic object, enabling dynamic visual effects.

    • FS2020 users: Engine covers are available and can be controlled via the OIS.
    • MSFS 2024 users: Enjoy dynamic pitot covers for an added layer of immersion plus interactable engine covers from the exterior walk around. Don’t forget to remove both prior to takeoff to avoid a bad day in the virtual office!

    The exterior cover updates are part of wider on-going work to make the A350 fully compatible with the MSFS 2024 career mode.

  8. A350 Airliner V1.0.6 Update 🚀
    This week’s A350 v1.06 update is a significant one—packed with a host of bug fixes, major system refinements, and exciting new features to enhance your flying experience. From our brand-new custom autosave system to the abundance of systems, art and sound fixes, we’ve focused on both stability and immersion. Dozens of improvements have been made across systems, visuals, and sounds, reflecting our ongoing commitment to delivering a high-fidelity aircraft.

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    Be sure to check out our latest developer livestream highlights – you can find out all things A350 and future-plans here -

    Custom Autosave Function
    The iniBuilds A350 features a powerful and flexible autosave system designed to keep your flight progress secure at all times. With user-configurable time intervals, you can tailor how often the aircraft automatically saves its state to suit your needs—and you can also manually save at any point with a simple click.FlightSimulator2024_ez0DpkwVPM.pngShould you need to end a flight early, the autosave system ensures you can rejoin it later exactly where you left off. Every detail of the aircraft’s state is preserved, including system variables and position data, thanks to a robust implementation using binary file writing/reading and SimConnect for flight control and position recovery. Notably, this system bypasses the default SimConnect situation save/load functions to maintain full control and fidelity of the aircraft's systems.

    Whether you're mid-cruise or preparing for descent, rest assured your flight is safe with the autosave system.

  11. A350 Airliner V1.0.5 Update 🚀

    This week’s update brings further bug fixes as well as three significant key areas being the focal point of this week. 

    We are working very hard in preparing an Xbox build as soon as possible. We are currently going through testing and optimization so you can have the best experience possible. 

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    A350 GSX Integration
    A recent GSX update will cause issues with some behaviour. Please await an update GSX side for the changes in this build to take effect.

    The A350 now includes further GSX integration, delivering streamlined, realistic ground operations experience for both departure and arrival workflows.

    • Automatic GPU Connect on Aircraft Spawn
      The external GPU will auto-connect when the aircraft is loaded, requiring no manual input. Built-in logic suppresses default GPU behavior to prevent duplication.
    • GSX Payload and Fuel Synchronization
      Loading passengers and fuel via GSX will update the aircraft’s internal systems in real time, including weight and balance in the EFB and MCDU. This ensures consistency between GSX timings and aircraft configuration.
    • Single GPU Logic
      Prevents the occurrence of double GPU connections by enforcing mutual exclusivity between GSX and aircraft-side systems.
    • Auto Jetbridge Connection
      Upon spawning at a gate with a jetway, the airbridge will automatically connect to the forward door, eliminating the need to manually request it.
    • Auto-Deboarding Trigger
      Deboarding will initiate automatically after engine shutdown and parking brake application, streamlining turnaround workflows.

    These updates bring tighter integration between GSX and the A350 systems, enabling a hands-off, procedurally correct experience from gate to gate. More updates and integrations are coming soon.
    FlightSimulator2024_HJojLlaihS.png

    A350 Equal Time Point (ETP) Functionality
    The iniBuilds A350 now features support for Equal Time Point (ETP) calculations, significantly improving accuracy in long-haul enroute monitoring.

    Dynamic ETP Calculation
    The aircraft now dynamically calculates the ETP between two reference points, aiding ETOPS planning and diversion strategies.

    This enhancement adds the much-requested support for oceanic and remote area operations, bringing the A350 simulation even closer to real-world dispatch procedures and inflight decision-making.
    FlightSimulator2024_QuDTmKjX9j.png

    Time Marker Aural Alerts [FS24 only for now]

    The A350 now features Time Marker Aural Alerts, designed to assist with procedural timing during various phases of flight.

    Flight Crew Aural Feedback
    Alerts are issued in a standard callout voice, non-disruptive to ATC or cockpit communications, and consistent with Airbus timing procedures.

    This enhancement supports procedural discipline and situational awareness, especially in high workload environments or during single-pilot ops in simulation contexts.

  13. A350 Airliner V1.0.4 Update 🚀

    This week's second update brings significant improvements in system depth and simulation fidelity, addressing multiple key areas. Along with some key work done in art. 

    One of the most notable enhancements is dynamic fuel temperature simulation, ensuring fuel temperatures behave more realistically throughout the flight. A key improvement in this update is that fuel temperatures will no longer remain stagnant over long flights. Instead, there is now some natural dynamic variation, with fuel cooling occurring at a more realistic rate and never dropping below -20°C. Unlike older aircraft, the A350 features heated fuel tanks, primarily located within the wing box near the fuselage. These tanks absorb residual heat from the airframe and hydraulic systems, preventing excessive cooling at high altitudes.

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    FlightSimulator2024_sNQeU7fyth.png

    With update 1.0.4, we’re further refining the realism of the A350’s engine behavior, specifically focusing on accurate initial spool rates. The XWB engines on the A350 don’t react instantly to thrust input. Instead, they follow a realistic, gradual spool-up process, particularly at low power settings. This update ensures the engines respond more naturally when advancing the throttles from idle, accurately reflecting FADEC-controlled ramp-up times.

    FlightSimulator2024_44BMnx7hWP.png

    Additionally, we've made a major update to the long-winglet model for the A350-900. After reviewing community feedback and conducting further investigations, we've improved the shape and profile of the long-winglet type using newly obtained technical and image reference data. This ensures a more accurate representation. Furthermore, FS20 performance has been significantly improved by optimizing node counts and refining the system for swapping cockpits. These changes reduce CPU load, resulting in smoother frame rates and fewer stutters, especially for users on lower-end systems.

    All liveries will need to be re-downloaded/updated via iniManager to work with v1.0.4 for FS20 and FS24 editions of the A350 as this was a necessary step to ensure the key fixes in this patch could be carried out at once. 

    NewOldWinglet.png

    Key navigation system fixes include improving waypoint insertion stability, and fixing step altitude persistence after climbs. Additionally, the wind data logic and descent speed limit functionality have been refined to better reflect real-world operations.

    WASM-related fixes were also a major focus, resolving multiple crashes linked to TCAS activation, flight plan imports, and Navigraph integration. These improvements enhance stability and usability for all users.

    The team remains dedicated to continuous improvement and deeper simulation accuracy, with ongoing refinements across all areas of the aircraft systems. As always, we appreciate the community's feedback and look forward to further enhancements in the future. Stay tuned for more updates as we push for even greater realism!

  15. A350 Airliner V1.0.3 Update 🚀

    v1.0.3 of the iniBuilds A350 Airliner for MSFS24 & MSFS20 has been released. This update contains various stability and crash fixes in the WASM code.

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    v1.0.3
    Stability and crash fixes to WASM code.
    ____________________________________________________________

    Thank you for your valuable bug reports; your feedback has been instrumental in helping us identify the key issues affecting your experience. 

    What We Have Found
    Community reports have helped identify the following root causes:
    Timing Conflicts: The update rates between third party services and the A350’s systems sometimes don’t align, which can create issues.
    Memory Management: Certain data exchanges may cause unexpected increases in memory usage, which might result in crashes.

    Memory Allocation Issue (What’s Happening?)
    Our A350’s avionics suite uses WASM (WebAssembly), a lightweight, secure programming environment. 

    • WASM needs memory to run add-ons – This includes aircraft avionics, custom systems, and other third-party add-ons.
    • This doesn’t mean your physical RAM – The problem isn’t about your computer running out of memory (like when you open too many programs).
    • WASM uses virtual memory – It manages its own memory space separately inside the simulator. Even if your PC has plenty of RAM, WASM can still run into issues if it can’t allocate memory correctly.
    • When allocation fails, crashes happen – If WASM tries to request memory but can’t get it properly, it can cause the simulator to crash or freeze.

    This is why some add-ons might become unstable, even if your PC has more than enough memory. The issue is inside WASM’s own memory management system, not your computer’s physical RAM.

    What We Are Doing to Fix the WASM Memory Issue
    To improve stability and reduce crashes in Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) caused by WASM memory allocation issues, we have made several changes:

    Switched to Smart Pointers

    • Instead of manually managing memory, we are using smart pointers.
    • This helps prevent memory leaks and automatically frees memory when it's no longer needed.

    Avoiding Unnecessary Copy Constructors

    • Copying large objects in memory can be inefficient and lead to excessive memory usage.
    • We are reducing unnecessary copies, which means better performance and lower memory footprint in the WASM environment.

    Adding Delays to Third-Party Data Requests

    • Previously, we were requesting external data at 30 FPS (30 times per second), which was putting too much load on the WASM environment.
    • Now, we limit these calls to once per second, significantly reducing the memory and processing overhead.

    Expected Benefits
    Fewer crashes due to memory mismanagement.
    More efficient memory use in the WASM environment.
    Better performance and smoother experience.

    If you are able to reliably reproduce this crash and are willing to help us, please do reach out to management@inibuilds.com or alert one of our Community team.

    We apologise for some of the instability still present but are committed to resolving it ASAP.

  16. A350 Airliner V1.0.2 Update 🚀

    This week’s build brings further WASM stability, bug fixes but also two new features. MORA and SND. Furthermore miniFCU support is now added, along with updated GSX profiles and windscreen wiping effects in FS20. 

    This update can be downloaded via the iniManager.

    MORA
    The A350 MORA (Minimum Off-Route Altitude) refers to the altitude providing at least 1,000 feet of terrain clearance (or 2,000 feet in mountainous areas) for the Airbus A350's Flight Management System (FMS) when flying off established routes.
    Derived from Navigraph data and displayed on the ND (Navigation Display) of the A350 to help pilots maintain situational awareness.
    Discord_9vJuCspEab.png
    SND
    In the A350, SND (Secondary Navigation Display) refers to the backup navigation mode used when the primary Flight Management System (FMS) is unavailable or degraded.

    Discord_2H6Q2GundO.png

    A350 SND Overview:
    Function: Provides basic navigation information when the FMS is lost or inoperative.
    Source: Uses raw data from radio navigation aids (VOR, DME, ILS, etc.) and GPS to continue navigating.
    Activation: Pilots can manually activate SND or it may automatically engage in case of FMS failure.

    Displayed Information: Basic heading, track, and position | Raw VOR/DME, ILS, and GPS data | Limited flight plan guidance

    Other ✍️
    We note that there are a few flight model mods available on certain websites. We wanted to take the opportunity to highlight the iniBuilds A350 Airliner flight model takes advantage of the latest Asobo CFD technology coupled with custom fly-by-wire code. Comments and updates from community regarding flight model cfgs are mostly irrelevant, or a placebo effect, as they have little to no effect on how the aircraft performs in sim. We have tuned the plane to fly as closely to real life with the support of our technical working group and A350 pilots team.

    To address 1 mod file, and the impact it may or may not have to the product you have purchased:

    Mod File Feature List:

    • Major Flight Stability Increases (aircraft should feel much heavier on the controls, will be improved on)
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM. 

       
    • Corrected Reference Speeds (Overspeed Limits increased, set to real values) Overspeed and Cruise Mach
      iniBuilds: Fixed in v1.01 

       
    • Reduced Thrust Multiplier (lower overall thrust output).
      iniBuilds: Only effects total thrust. Reducing it as indicated will have a negative/unrealistic impact on SRS

       
    • Increased Ground Friction (initial roll requires thrust increase)
      iniBuilds: Unrealistic modification as this was tuned as per IRL references and pilot feedback. 

       
    • Reduced Elevator Trim Speed (slightly)
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM. 

       
    • Slower Spoiler-on Deploy timing (mostly in-flight, the spoilers seem unaffected)
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM.  Can be adjusted slightly in cfg’s but this is not realistic. 

       
    • Custom Flight Dynamics Overhaul.
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM. 

       
    • Improved Flare and Rotation Behavior (looking into this).
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM. 

       
    • Slower Spoiler Deployment (looking into this, may not be needed after V1.0.1).
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM. 

       
    • Improved Fuel Flow Scalar (looking into this).
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM. 

       
    • Improved Climb-Lift Ratios.
      iniBuilds: Unrealistic modification as this was tuned as per IRL references and pilot feedback.
       
    • Brake Changes (higher priority, looking into this also).
      iniBuilds: This is not possible or true as its controlled via our WASM. 

    To conclude, we hope you enjoy this new update. We are monitoring all feedback and we are committed to improving this very detailed A350, to be even better. We just want to raise awareness that using unofficial mods like this will have a detrimental effect on your experience, and if it’s a legitimate bug in accordance with how the real aircraft operates, rest assured, if the bug has been filed correctly on our forums, we will ensure it is resolved in an upcoming patch. 

    Happy flying,
    iniBuilds Team ❤️

You'll be greeted with an abundance of choices - so take a browse through and get downloading in preparation!
    Please note: No liveries are shipped with the A350 Airliner and you will need to download these individually.

    IMPORTANT INFO - MSFS2024 SU1 BETA ⚠️

    This update incorporates key fixes and features that are essential, especially for those intending to use Navigraph.
    While for non-Navigraph users, it is still highly recommended for an overall better experience and reduced crash instances.

    Check out some of the main features that make the A350 an extraordinary addition to your hangar:

    🧑‍✈️ Realistic Flight Systems
    The iniBuilds A350 brings to life over 200 ECAMs, allowing you to replicate the entire standard procedure flow of the real aircraft. Whether you're dealing with warnings, some abnormal checklists, or emergency scenarios, you'll have the tools at your disposal to handle it all—just like a real-world pilot. From status pages to memos and limitations, no detail has been overlooked!

    Systems.png

    🖥️ Fully Interactive MCDU
    The Multifunction Control and Display Unit (MCDU) has been carefully modeled to include advanced features like multiple secondary flight plans and pilot-defined waypoints. The VSD provides great awareness, allowing for more efficient climbs & descents within complex airspaces. The level of detail in the MCDU ensures you're always in control of your flight plan, making every approach feel just as demanding as in the real world! ✈️

    FlightSimulator2024_BGn3HGg7nu.png

    🛬 Brake to Vacate (BTV)
    Another highlight feature is Brake to Vacate, the A350 allows you to optimize your braking upon landing, minimizing runway occupancy time. The iniBuilds A350 Airliner allows for two selections on BTV, the first of which being via Exit Selection on the ANF - this is the standard method of BTV whereby you'd select the desired runway exit to target via the ND (This method is only usable with a Navigraph Unlimited Subscription). The next option is to arm BTV via manual distance entry - with this you can use BTV without the requirement of a Navigraph subscription. 🛞

    Paired with the Airport Navigation Function (ANF), which helps guide you during complex ground operations, this feature ensures smooth and precise control on the tarmac. Whether you're navigating busy hubs or smaller airports, you'll be able to plan your vacating routes like a pro. 🚗

    FlightSimulator2024_IVYyhVm5FZ.png

    🌐 CPDLC Integration via Hoppie
    The A350 is also equipped with full Controller–Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) via Hoppie. Request ATIS/METAR updates, communicate with ATC, and manage your flight directly from the cockpit. This functionality not only increases immersion but also ensures you stay connected to the latest weather and ATC data for smooth, safe flights! 🌤️

    Experience some of the best exterior and in-cabin detailing that has ever been seen in a flight simulator. With precision placed, detailed rivets, smooth animations, dynamic wing flex reacting to flight conditions and so much more, the A350 Airliner won't disappoint. The landing gear is fully animated, complete with modeled tyre physics. With the ability to customize your aircraft with long or short winglets, fuel jettisons, LED or HID lighting variants, the possibilities are endless.

    Inside, the cabin features realistic lighting, from ambient to emergency, and functional seatbelt, no-smoking, and electronics displays. With a cabin based upon the Air France A350 layout, you'll see a 3 class config, including lavatories, galleys and every other detail that ensure true-to-life immersion, even in the cabin!😉

    We've even given you the option to completely disable the cabin if you want the extra performance, simply select the [No Cabin] option in the Variant menu of FS2024 and that's it!

    Please note: The full, detailed cabin is only available in FS2024 via iniManager & MSFS2024 In-Game Marketplace purchases.

Plan your flights in advance, download directly in-sim, and update your AIRAC cycles effortlessly. Whether you're simulating a busy day of commercial flying or tackling long-haul routes, these integrations ensure everything is realistic and streamlined.

    🏔️ Custom Terrain Radar
    Enhance your situational awareness with the A350's Custom Terrain Radar. This system accurately maps the terrain around your flight path, helping you navigate safely through challenging environments. Whether you're flying over the mountains or descending into a tricky approach, the terrain radar will provide you with the data you need to make informed decisions.

    FlightSimulator2024_pe1iShILHO.png

    🔥 GPS Jamming Simulation
    A unique and immersive feature, GPS Jamming Simulation introduces an element of unpredictability to your flights. When jamming occurs, it can affect systems like BTV, TCAS, GPWS, and GPS, with some recovering and others failing permanently!
