AW139 4.00 RC5
Uploaded on [soon]
- Fixed battery issue which was still causing failed re-starts under certain conditions;
- Fixed generators issue causing battery mischarge and consequent quick draining;
- Fixed incorrect electrical consumption for every single system on board;
- Electrical hydraulic pump now off by default and with reduced pressure, as in reality;
- Fixed hydraulic sources with refined values and display indicators;
- Added hydraulic Shut-Off-Valve (SOV) switch functionality on the interseat panel;
- Fixed cyclic FT actuators, now the desired pitch and roll attitudes are kept in ATT mode;
- Fixed occasional bugs on certain autopilot FD modes;
- Better sound behaviour at start-ups and shut-downs;
- Better engine response at higher altitudes;
- Better rotor spooling-up speed;
- Fixed minor 3D details on the fuseleage;
- Added new user guide.

- Fixed rotors still moving when rotor brake caliper is at maximum pressure, an X-Plane issue bypass;
- Fixed PMS issue still occourring after a power-off, now each engine starts, idles and restarts as expected;
- Fixed over-TQ and rotor-high issue when switching from IDLE to FLT mode on PMS;
- Fixed scaled shadows on cabin and panel, as X-Plane shaders won’t stop changing;
- Fixed wrong electrical values on MFD;
- Fixed rotor brake lever sound missing.

- Rewritten SAS and ATT logic based upon AP1/2, FT and CPL activation, a huge fix but the most desired one by real pilots;
- Rewritten autopilot FD modes from scratch so that they obey to the real logic, also added custom toggle commands;
- Fixed excess of power (HP) and aircraft weights values, now real AW139 pilots should feel at home a lot better;
- Fixed unrealistic display values and arrows behavior for NG, ITT, TQ and PI along with range warnings;
- Fixed continuous input to trimming switches both on cyclic and collective, keep each hat switch pressed to increase or decrease values;
- Fixed rotor brake’s caliper effectiveness, now it is proportional to the action on the lever and won’t turn the helicopter anymore;
- Added a retractable spotlight to the belly, it can be switched on and pointed in any direction by using the rightside hat switch on the collective;
- Enlarged cabin sound sphere, now VR pilots should not get outer sounds when attempting to lean their heads towards the window;
- Fixed seats headrests issue on custom liveries showing both closed and open configurations, now they have the hole opened;
- Fixed livery template UV map misplacements on tail boom, stabilizer, belly and added nose logo area, now authors can paint it just right;
- Unified N2 102% commands into a single toggle, this is to help out the serious simmers with their hardware;
- Making the old user guide available as a separate download, looking forward to write a much simpler procedural sheet;
- Added cyclic and collective manipulators, this allow a greater usability for VR pilots with touchpads and mouse pilots as well;
- Fixed invisible pedestals on custom liveries higher that 00 (default), fixed the livery template as well;
- Fixed both fuel pumps needed to start one engine, now each engine is correctly related to its fuel pump;
- Digital wind indicator back in place, now compensating the wind direction with the heading;
- Fixed SAS REL and FD STBY buttons on cyclic, now they work as expected;
- Fixed tires appearing raised from the ground;
- Fixed minor details on cabin and external meshes;
- Fixed nose glass transparency issue;
- Raised avionics fans volume just right.

- Fixed pedals still moving when CLTV/YAW trim is ON, now they stay in position unless CLTV/YAW REL (collective) is being pressed;
- Fixed cyclic trim up and down function, now it trims pitch when FT is ON and IAS mode (FD) is OFF, otherwise it modifies IAS reference;
- Fixed cyclic trim left and right function, now it trims roll when FT is ON and HDG mode (FD) is OFF, otherwise it modifies HDG reference;
- Fixed engine power, fuel consumption and weights parameters;
- Fixed Sagem® map display showing along with every user custom livery, now the instrument is finally gone (until version 4.1);
- Fixed parking brake lever sound, now it’s there;
- Refined rotor spooling up time, now closer to reality;
- Fixed reversed CCD (Cursor Control Device) left and right function when LH (MFD) is selected, up and down function are fictional;
- Updated livery template with a convenient UV map layer and instruction note, now it’s easier to identify parts of the fuseleage;
- Updated custom livery folder logic, now additional liveries must be tied to sequential numbers (04, 05, …); this was done to prevent the off-shore external objects showing along with every custom livery, as they will show up only with the default off-shore liveries (Default 00 to 03).

- Fixed the marching ants issue affecting many textures on some graphic cards due to wrong UV maps;
- Fixed internal glass opacity, as reported too dark by many pilots using VR headsets;
- Fixed collective trim up and down function when CLTV/YAW trim is ON, the hat switch trims collective, otherwise it changes the reference target value if a FD collective mode is engaged (ie. VS or ALT reference);
- Fixed rotor brake strenght, now it’s a lot less brutal;
- Fixed vents sound when battery is off.
