  1. Hi,

     

    So I've decided to test the CRJ again and it appears that a longstanding bug is still there:

     

    I am currently flying to LOWW from EGLL...

     

    EGLL/27R DCT DET L6 DVR UL9 KONAN UL607 KOK DCT LNO DCT MATUG DCT GUBAX DCT BOREP DCT ENITA DCT ETVIS DCT BUDEX DCT LOWW/34

     

    ... on VATSIM and the runway changed after setting up the approach. The arrival is BUDE1W and that hasn't changed but they switched landing runways from 34 to 16. Going into the DEP ARR page and changing the approach to ILS RWY 16 via NERDU did not replace the previously programmed ILS RWY 34 via NERDU but instead added the newer ILS 16 waypoints to the end of the flight plan, e.g. from...

     

    NERDU WW987 WW985 WW983 WW981 ... FI34 RW34

     

    ... to ...

     

    NERDU WW681 WW679 WW677 ...WW671 WW987 WW985 WW983 WW981 ... FI34 WW671 FI16 RW16

     

    This is not exactly precise because I've already flown some of the waypoints so posting from memory, but I had to heavily edit the flight plan.

     

    Obviously these kind of edits, which take me a minute or two to make sure they're correct, are not possible when doing a busy VATSIM event with a last minute runway change.

     

    @Mathijs Kok do you by any chance know if this is going to be fixed and when we can expect it?

    Hi Guys.  Is there any existing variable to assign some of my Bravo buttons for the THRUST REVERSER ARM switch?  If so what is it called?  M using axis and ohs.  Thanks in advance.

    Crabby is right indeed from an MSFS standpoint.

    However, if you can use a throttle with an integrated analog portion dedicated to the reversers, the nternal CRJ onfiguration, accessible via the EFB in the cockpit, will
    allow you to control the reversers proportionally.


    I apologize for not being clear enough. I meant those 2 switches left of the throttles, on the pedestal, that activate the thrust reversers. They can be set to Off or Armed. Got it working. 🖖🏻

    have you used AAO to gather the LVARs?  Once I have done this I don't have too much difficulty finding and LVAR I want by using the AAO filter.  Frankly that is what most will probably do to provide you with the LVAR.   Better to learn it yourself so you can get things done quickly. 

    As far as the thrust reversers are concerned, I don't believe you will be able to get them to work as in real life.  It is a sim limitation.  So they either are on full or off.


    Yes! I finally found the Thrust Rev switches (left side of throttles on pedestal, the TR activation switches) and configured them.

     

    The thrust reversers work fine with my Honecomb Bravo but I wanted the switches that turn them on bound to a button. All working. 
     

    Still can’t get the HUD to come down though…

    Before starting the aircraft, move the throttle levers down to the detent button position. This corresponds to the throttle SHUT OFF position. When you need to introduce fuel to the engine, simply push forward the levers out from the detent position to the axis low position. This corresponds to clicking the red guards and moving the throttle to the IDLE position to introduce fuel. You will see the red locks disengaging automatically and the throttles moving to the IDLE position.


    I started customizing your config to suit my tastes and I have a few questions:

     

    1. The “detent position” you mention - is that 0% on the throttle axis (not all the way back) or is that when you pull them back further, pushing through the detent (the separate switch position, which isn’t an axis anymore)? I can get some photos to clarify if my question isn’t understandable.

     

    2. So I understand that the “axis low” position is more than 0% on the throttle axis (as seen in MSFS bindings)?

     

    3. Does anyone know the LVAR name for the Thrust Reverser switches, next to the pilot’s knee? I spent an hour looking for them yesterday and couldn’t get them to work.


    4. Also looking for the LVAR to toggle the HUD down and up.
