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.

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.

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

We have identified some deep edge case scenarios that may result in a WASM crash but they are difficult to reliably reproduce. We continue to test and refine these but ask for your patience during this process

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 ❤️
