Moridin 85 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 We just flew from LFKB (Orbx) to LIML (JetStream) with @piotrmkg in two CRJ 700ERs. Both in the AirFrance HOP livery. Please login to display this image. First impressions and general observations: Speed tape works fine. HUD works (never had a problem with it not working) Please login to display this image. The new HUD is amazing. It changes colour depending on the light. Much more readable too. Please login to display this image. I tested a hold on the route. It worked but the default setting meant that the CRJ overshot the turns by a fair margin. I assume that increasing the radius would solve this. If someone knows of "perfect" settings for a hold at 220-230 KT, I'd be grateful for some info. Please login to display this image. Captured the LOC at LIML around 12-13 nm out. GS was acquired at around 9 nm, as it should. Please login to display this image. PAPI's were spot on! Please login to display this image. Successful ILS landing of both aircraft at LIML and a beauty shot. Potential issues: After shutting the CRJ 700 down, after turning off the battery last, MSFS crashed to desktop for me. @piotrmkg was fine. I assume this is not the aircraft's fault. I have had this happen before in different planes, including Asobo's. This has happened very rarely so far. Please do not treat this as me dumping on the CRJ or Aerosoft. I'm just mentioning this for clarity. AP LNAV behaviour is still strange - it banks left/right for a while after acquiring a radial (overshoots the radial, then corrects the other way, etc.). Settles down after 2-3 banks left/right. This might be intentional behaviour for a CRJ. I am not a pilot in RL. Cockpit textures are fixed. Light no longer makes them flicker or grainy. Super happy with this update! Can't wait to fly all weekend. Thank you @Mathijs Kok and the whole dev team for getting this up before the weekend!

Moridin 85 Posted August 14, 2021 Author Share Posted August 14, 2021 I forgot to mention, trim is still too sensitive for me since SU5 (on all aircraft). Fix ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be different on different systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blntydmr 1 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I made my flight too. First impression is good for me, too. I will continue my flights. Thanks for the developer team for the fix update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janjoensson 54 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 First IFR flight with the CRJ after update, London City (EGLC - Orbx) to Manchester (EGCC - Macco). Everything went smooth (except this annoying MSFS bug not remembering graphic settings which I think caused the EFB to look a bit strange, must do a new flight to test that...). Intercepted ILS glide slope spot on, almost a perfect landing for being me in slight crosswind. Feels like it is a bit more responsive on the throttle. My trim with the Bravo feels normal. Parked at gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Merowinger 162 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I'd like to give a positive feedback too: just finished my leg from EGLC to EGPE. Everything was working perfectly and smooth. I made a wonderful ILS-landing in Inverness. Nor more graphic and speedtape issues, the plane gives a lot pleasure to me. Many thanks are given to the Aerosoft-team!

So scroll slowly and get 7.4, 7.3, 7.2, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilota57 15 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 All ok with CRJ 1.0.6 except a smooth oscillation (four or five periods) during a leg in flightplan but the plane does not loose the track. Thank's to Aerosoft team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Alferio 2 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Flew CRJ 700, Swissair livery, Milan Malpensa to Zurich. Stayed relatively low at 22000. The HUD bug appears to be fixed. No other problems noted. Good job AS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moridin 85 Posted August 14, 2021 Author Share Posted August 14, 2021 Reinstalling CRJ from scratch just in case. Edit so I don't forget: 1. Uninstalled via Add & Remove Programs. 2. Restarted Windows. 3. Installing from installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesOReilly 314 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 why not use Notepad++ or even just Notepad to be your "scratch" pad to track all of this and then post separate "logical" and "cohesive" threads after you have gone through your process?

Yeah that makes more sense. I thought some people would appreciate the insight, but I don't think it was a good idea in hindsight. Reinstalled everything, completed EDDB-EPKK on VATSIM just now, everything worked properly. I made sure to delete the m* files just to make sure everything was rebuilt. The uninstaller does not delete those files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yeah ... open a thread per item... civility... Sorry. Didn't want to spam multiple threads with barely any substantial info for devs, when I hadn't exhausted all options, including a reinstall. My last update will be that a full reinstall of the CRJ + deleting of the m* files (uninstall, delete m* files, restart, install, load CRJ into airport, wait 10 mins, quit and restart MSFS) helped with all the issues I was having, at least for today.
