Administrators mattY Posted 21 hours ago Administrators Posted 21 hours ago 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. 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. 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. 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! ____________________________________________________________ v1.0.4Systems & EFB ⚙️🖥️Fixed - WASM*** EFIS_Gauge_Update crash fixed Fixed - WASM*** Crash on CPNY F-PLN IMPORT after changing data source crash Fixed - WASM*** Exception c000005 in gauge SND on SB Import Fixed - 2020 ***WASM*** MFD exception while editing SEC plan Fixed – WASM - Repeatable WASM crash, closest airports>DATA Fixed- WASM - Exception in Gauge MFD – TCAS Fixed - Navigraph_FunctionResult WASM crash Fixed - Navigraph commbus/function WASM crash Fixed - WASM crash when selecting FIX INFO and inserting runway Improvement - Dynamic fuel temp simulation Fixed - HDG bar missing on the PFD in Raw Data Fixed - Incorrect GD, S, F speeds in APPR page in some situations Fixed - Unable to DTO custom wpt Fixed - Insert to next waypoint causing navigraph function to die Fixed - NAV ACCUR UPGRADED should be white instead of amber Fixed - SEC copy active did not copy the flight number Fixed - Incorrect landing weight being displayed in some situations Fixed - Changing approach (but not inserting it) clears the minima in some cases Fixed - Able to have 2 menus open in FPLN page Fixed - THS trim "wheel" moving in opposite direction in some cases Fixed - Wind Data KNOT spd limit too small Fixed - Turning SPD knob while on managed speed issue bug Fixed - MFD Local Time issue bug Fixed - Swap active not carrying over the CRZ ALT bug Fixed - ENG SD COOLING text alignment Fixed - Incorrect colour coding in SEC plans Fixed - MFD Cancel noise missing * Fixed - SD Page formatting - CAB V/S Fixed - Unable to reselect SLS Fixed - No STEP DELETED message bug Fixed - Step Alt persistence after climbing to new alt Fixed - HSP = too far right bug Fixed - Fuel over waypoints when LB selected shows T bug Fixed -  TMPY UNDO* prompt bug Fixed - PFD Vls line issue bug Fixed - DESCENT SPD LIM and the respective SPD LIM vertical revision entry is missing Fixed - Decel Point in F-PLAN - Does not activate approach mode/phase Fixed - FMA change box behaviour Fixed - FIX INFO pge not fully clearing data Fixed - FMS F-PLN/AIRWAYS page - if you enter a wrong WPT, there is no way to "reset" the field Fixed - LEG RNP visible in FPLN at the top Fixed - SEC PLAN TMPY syncing with active plan on insert prior to swap Fixed - Wind Page CRZ waypoint logic doesn't match IRL Fixed - A/THR failure, thrust not locked Fixed - ARPTs being limited Fixed - Small zone in THR lever without FMA indication Fixed - Anti-skid logic incorrect -1000 Fixed - EFOB on F-LPN being calculated in KG regardless of simbrief and aircraft being set to LBS.
