I have just bought the Spartan executive for the MSFS 2020. Unfortunately there is only one category for the FS24 divisions in the forum so far, so I'm posting here. Unfortunately the plane is one huge dissapointment
- In the classic version, the static elements are displayed as off although they are on. So you have to set them to on in the EFB before you can turn them off.
- In some preview videos I have seen a modern version with curtains and special light. This is not available on Xbox. Very disappointing. 
- In the modern version, Nav 2 cannot be switched from CDI to VLOC.
- The modern version staret with none of the equpiment selected, the old version with all (including the tablet bug above).
- In the modern version, the selection switch for the flaps does not move.
- In neither variant is the function of the belly flaps explained or visually displayed.
- Where can I find documentation on the correct power settings.

I'm on Xbox and it definitely needs an update. In the current state it´s hardly acceptable for its price tag.

Edit: Okay, I just recognized that there is one modern version that includes the modern cabin with special lighting. Sorry for that. 

The list continues:
- in the modern version there are two passangers visable even though there are no ones loaded in the weight and balance menu.
- Instead in the modern version no pilots are visable.
- There seems to be no clickspot to hide the phone. This is in both variants annoying: In the classic it destroys the classic feeling, in the modern it partially hides the speedometer.
- Int the modern version the light switches for cabin and instrument lights are inop. There just seems to be the one cabin light switch working wich only illuminates the panel ever so slightly, but not the cabin.
- I figured out that the wing flap switch activates the belly flaps too. But the indicator only moves when moving the belly flap switch which in turn does in fact do nothing to the flap movement.

You’re right. The cabin lighting at night is quite strange, and I can’t find the source of the light. The seats also appear to have a gradient effect, with different shades of color. As for the phone, there should be an additional hidden location, similar to the FSS Boeing 727, which also has an iPhone.
 

The cabin lighting issue is related to the classic cabin version.
 

Guys, honestly. It´s now four (4!!!!) Weeks since the release ... still no fix. Come on! That´s poor.

Very disappointing: The update yesterday in the marketplace fixed literally none of the mentioned issues ...
