Skyward Simulations Updates Citation Sovereign+ for MSFS 2024
Quick summary· AI-generated
The update brings significant avionics and systems improvements including efficiency loss modeling based on bleed air settings, new aural alerts (landing gear, no takeoff, cabin altitude warnings), missing instrument indicators (right aileron trim), progressive brake application, refactored rudder/tiller input detection for dual-pedal setups, and numerous system fixes across pressurization, autothrottle, brake control, and data computer functions. The changelog indicates attention to study-level fidelity details like ITT effects, pitot-static heat cautions, and CRU thrust target entry via autothrottle toggles.
Excerpt from Threshold
Skyward Simulations has recently updated their Cessna Citation Sovereign+ for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, bringing multiple improvements, bug fixes, and more.
Update v1.0.4 adds efficiency loss to the engines, adds the missing right aileron trim indicator, adds fuel flow display when combustion is detected during engine start, adds new aural alerts, refactors rudder and tiller input detection, adds collision meshes for VR in interior view, increases the ground spoiler effect, and more. The complete changelog follows below:
Avionics & Systems
Added efficiency loss to the engines, depending on the bleed air setting
Added automatic display of ITT digits when the BLD AIR or PRESS SOURCE knob is not NORM
Added missing right aileron trim indicator
Added display of fuel flow when combustion is detected during engine start
Added EGT effects to the APU that is based on electrical and bleed load
Added “LANDING GEAR,” “NO TAKEOFF,” and “CABIN ALTITUDE” aural alerts
Added the ability to enter the CRU thrust target when toggling the autothrottle
Added the P/S HEAT ON caution message that displays when the pitot-static heat has been selected ON for more than 2 minutes while on the ground
Added a progressive brake application when using a button input to brake
Refactored rudder & tiller steering input detection (separate rudder and tiller should now work again)
Fixed response timer expired message from being sent if the recipient was not a CDA
Fixed the ability to hand over an aircraft without being logged on to a facility
Fixed aircraft.cfg not displaying type code as C680
Fixed the bleed air monitor producing an ENGINE COLD caution message prior to when the engine nacelle valve was commanded open
Fixed Hoppie not parsing CLEARED as PDC
Fixed MRN in NCDA message
Fixed the bus tie relay not being powered by the RH EMER BUS
Fixed the pressurization controller from being able to use altitude ADC data from GSD3
Fixed the brake control system from momentarily accepting brake inputs when the parking brake or chocks were engaged
Fixed the autothrottle speed protection system not re-engaging the autothrottle if it was on prior to protection
Fixed the MIN/MAX speed protection not providing “disconnected” feedback to the pilot if the AT was off prior to engagement
Fixed the ADF frequency not changing
Fixed the takeoff data computer not displaying the correct max temperature for the given conditions
Fixed elevator trim not displaying the proper…
