Had a quick look at it - unfortunately they did not fix the "pilot thing" in the civilian variant - there are only half bodys, no legs. Why ..... ?

Question about the service pack date: Is that March 10th or October 3rd? The reason I ask is that airplane was just released in August, correct?

Just Flight is UK based so that would be 3 Oct 2017

Did not get the email for the service pack. Checked the website and can not find a download link.

Edit: Never mind. Just figured out that I have to just re-download the full installer.

 

[Penzoil3]

DOH! face-palm. It all makes sense now. Thanks

Well there is nothing on the JF Forum that a SP has been released. Nor on the download link. Where did this information come from?

 

[Martyn]

An email was sent to everyone who purchased the product. It would have be sent to the email address linked to your Just Flight account.

Refer to our support section for information on any SPs - https://www.justflight.com/support/c46-commando/c3a4681

We would usually post on our forum and social media (Facebook etc) but we are currently very busy getting ready for our annual Flight Sim Show this weekend as well as sorting out several new products. Also worth noting that our forum isn't a support forum like those provided by some other developers - support is only officially handled through the website but I'll endeavor to assist where possible on the forum.

Thanks
Martyn

Yep, just check the Just Flight account and you will find version 103.
Looks like the classic version is fixed now.
The modern VC got a new jumpseat but some bugs are still there:
OBS#1 turns compass cards on all VOR receivers (#1and #2) - haven´t checked if CDI is linked to NAV 1 or 2
3way switches on overhead panel (wing and tail light) don´t work on dim position.
Beacon is linked to dome light switch.
GPS shows no DTK or TRK.
Viewpoint (seatposition) on classic version is much higher than on modern version (probably different seat cushions, hehe) - I fixed that by dividing both versions into two separate aircraft folders and correcting the viewpoint.
Fuelselector on classic works perfect now - the modern version is still messed up on my system.
Aircraft.cfg might need some cleaning...I removed the double GPWS section etc. (Btw: -0.0 = 0.0 but might cause problems on some calculations.)

Love the classic version!!!
Cheers,

Marc

Hmm.. Never got one. I get your newsletter, but not an e-mail on the C-46.

Question about the service pack date: Is that March 10th or October 3rd?

How March like this plane was released in 10th of August this Year.
DD-MM-YYYY (Europe) or YYYY-MM-DD (US) .... mostly

Does it still take off after 50m? And struggle to climb above 8000 and has the COG been fixed so it doesnt fly nose down on level flight

With the correct engine settings you will need approximately 2015 ft to take off, less with high blower. Your climb rate will depend entirely on your load. As willl cruise lift on the wing, which is why the aircraft may or may not appear nose down. The FD has been developed to give level attitude using the gyro-pilot but as in the real machine, adjustments to load/position using the drop down will be necessary. Above 8,000 ft, the real machines had trouble climbing without subtle use of high blower which is why they flew large climbing circles before attempting to cross the Himalayas on the Hump run.

Guess not everyone, as I did not get the email either. Have been getting all other other JF emails so far.

And NO, my email ID has not changed, lol. I was able to log in to my JF account just fine.

So no change

Thank you for your answer

No email here.

No e-mail here, and I did purchase from JF. On the date question, I suspected that, thanks for the confirmation. I should have just gone for it. No harm to try. Without going into literally gory details (dental work) I haven’t had time to follow up on it, maybe later today.
