Working Title CJ4 v0.6.0

Welcome to the latest update of the Working Title CJ4 (v0.6.0). Thank you to everyone who contributed to this release.

Feel free to test out our new Simbrief Profile: SIMBRIEF PROFILE

Check out our interim SoP doc: Interim SoP Document

Installation

Installation is easy, simply copy the workingtitle-aircraft-cj4 folder inside the zip file to your MSFS Community folder.

Important: We recommend that you fully delete the previous workingtitle-aircraft-cj4 folder before copying this release.

Key Features

• Overhauled PFD/MFD for better readability
• Added bearing pointers to PFD
• Mach number climbs work
• Transponder works
• Simbrief import fixes and error messages with database issues
• Proper altitude constraints (No VNAV yet) and arrival/approach sequencing.
• Added approach transitions for arrivals

FMS

• Added proper input detection for Takeoff Ref Page
• QNH now automatically pulls from the PFD so there’s no need to type it in
• Takeoff v-speeds and field length won’t show if temperature or runway is not inputted
• Error messages for when the simbrief flight plan waypoint can’t be found in sim database
• Added approach transitions for arrivals

LEGS Page

• Proper altitude constraints for arrivals and approaches will be shown
• Adding an approach to an arrival should not put in 2 of the same fixes.

TUNE Page

• Fixed a bug where swapping COM2 would swap COM1 instead
• Transponder now works (You must select it from the TCAS mode from STBY to TA/RA)

PFD

• Better readability of target altitude
• Changed the target altitude bug to look like in the real plane
• The altitude select bug won’t disappear when within 300ft of current altitude
• Baro setting is now easier to read
• Mach number will show correct value and 2 decimal places. (M0.71 vs M0.714)
• Mach number readout below airspeed tape is now easier to read.
• Added bearing pointers for FMS/VOR/ADF and accompanying data block
• Tuning radio from PFD was removed

MFD

• Overhauled font, sizing, and positioning of upper engine readout displays for better readability and accuracy
• Fixed pitch trim indicator (was backward) and adjusted default trim position for better takeoff attitudes (Danice737)
• Fixed ISA temp deviation calculations (Temps should level off at 36,000 at the tropopause)
• FIxed battery amps displays so it’s not -500 anymore (Electrical system still WIP) (Danice737)
• Added hydraulic pumps tied to N2 so they reach full normal pressure by 20% N2.

Known Issues

• The speed constraints on arrivals may not show correctly because of database issues.
• After using Direct-To, the navigation will not always automatically sequence to the next fix and may enter ROL mode. You can re-activate NAV to navigate to the next fix if you encounter this issue.
• The aircraft is still using the built-in MSFS autopilot (for now). All the existing limitations of that still apply. It does behave a bit better with the various enhancements applied.
• Some flight plan distances may still be misreported when the approach is activated. Please log an issue if you encounter this with details.
• Some instances of the autopilot skipping approach waypoints still occur - this is deep in the sim handling of waypoints and is, for now, out of our hands. We will continue to research this.
