***UPDATED***
Elev Trim Warning w/Batt Off fixed

Heads up: the provided link (MV_PC6_v1.2.0.0_190717) results in the download of the T-38 as opposed to the Porter.

Thanks - fixed now

looks great so far, a couple small issues I see: the nav lights are flashing still, the left seems to be connected to the red beacon and right connected to the tail strobe. Also showing no battery drain at all, even with everything powered up and 16x time for a while.

The nav lights are set to flash with the strobe switch , on the three nav lights flash off they do not , the beacon is a separate switch and that is flash on and off , on or off .

As to battery drain , i need to assume your engine was running with gen on , if the generator is not on , the batteries will die.

Best CJ

Nope, no batt drain is with engine off and everything powered up.

With everything powered battery drains ~ 17 Ah, so it will take ~ 50 min to drop voltage below 24V (voltage starts dropping at 20 Amps)
Drain is elapsed hour controlled. I believe elapsed won't increase over 4X (or 8X?), a P3D limitation, so the reason to the apparent lack of voltage reduction.

That's one heck of an emergency power supply, thanks for the info makes sense with me being at 16x no accelerated drain.

With the night lighting the autopilot and adf are still brighter than everything else when on, and the garmin 650 has a ghost image in it. Not a big deal to me as i use lorby flashlight to light my panels at night!

btw thanks for the GPS-CDI fix and especially the inverted CRS and HDG bugs! Having fun practicing in the bird, great job to all.



Also the side window has a blackish texture on it, not sure if that's from the real airplane etc. but just wanted to be thorough and see
