Additional avionics options that are switchable via a tablet or similar interface representing H-model avionics upgrades, through at least the H3.
Adding to this, perhaps you can incorporate a mount (and selectable option) for the freeware and open-source KLN90 GPS simulation. Reference: https://msfsaddons.com/2023/05/29/the-return-of-a-classic-bendix-king-kln90b-gps
-now-available-for-msfs-aircraft-developers/


Repaint kit and support for end-user created liveries that may be uploaded to external websites. Or...as a compromise, repaint kit with instructions for end-users to upload to CS directly for review and incorporation into free or cheap livery packs.

Please make a description on how one can transfer the liveries of the External View version to my newly aquired version.

Wish 2: Is it possible to make the tablet (with all its settings) movable to a second monitor

GPS NAV mode to enjoy long flight plans and use it in VATSIM. That's my biggest wish for this plane.

Hallo,
- ADF Functioning
- solving The Fuel/ Start Problem
- changing strategy of Livery selling. Open paint kit.
- missing certificates for the  installation exe causes virus warnings.
- more realistic Prices for a recently limited product.
- I recognise regretfully that such a often wanted Product is subject to technical and other restrictions.
- remember that your customers are a huge community and not only a source of money.
I would like to pay more for a upcoming great product to support the creators but I need information, communication and transparency to get confidence in your decisions.
Sorry , but this had to be said.
Andreas

-PaintKit will be the Number 1 requested item

-Crossfeed operations

- Computer Navigation System
  or
-Integration with: PMS50 and TDS
   TDS GTNXi (link)
   PMS50 GTN750 (link here)
   since you do not allow links, find it yourself

- Livery packs need more

- This one should be very easy, C-130E liveries easily ported over, since there is no difference with the External Paint textures.

1.- Paintkit open to everyone
2.- GPS NAV (of some sort, a NAV/GPS toggle switch like in the FSX version would be enough)

My C-130 wishlist in order of importance:

1. Fix fuel system so that all tanks can be used in any combination without triggering current engine shutdown bug
2. Provide the intermediate position for cargo ramp (and make this ramp position selectable both in the air and on the ground)
3. Add smoke effect for engines
4. Add GPS option (and allow users to slave autopilot to it)
5. Add C-130H-30 variant
6. Allow removal/addition of external fuel tanks
7. Replace clipboard with animations with a a consolidated EFB
8. Continue adding system depth to those items not currently modeled
9. Add L-182 civilian variants (standard and -30 stretch, both with ability to carry external tanks)
10. Add other military external model variants (LC-130H, EC-130H, etc)
11. Upgrade sounds to C-130 sounds

Please put out a Canadian Livery Pack. Our pilots and crews are  some of the very best. I worked on the whole Canadian forces fleet of aircraft for 21 years. I also would like to say that this is such a good representation of the C-130 H that it brings me back to working on these aircraft. I love the cockpit and all the provided animations. I would love to see the ramp animated in flight (not sure if it can be opened in flight) I would like to say that this model is well worth the price. The MSFS Marketplace allows livery packs ,so to the detractors of this version of the C-130, please give the developer a break. I am sure operating a deficit by giving away for free is not an option.
Hopefully our Canadian federal budget will allow for some new paint schemes (just kidding)
Thanks from a long time Captain Sim customer from the F-104 to the C-130, I love what you have done with the new model. Smiley

The standard key strokes for the autopilot, radios,HSI, and some sort of control for the roll knob and pitch wheel.....I know there's a key stroke for pitch I'm not sure about the roll knob.....

GPS would be cool, but you guys designed this plane old school, but a panel option would be awesome

I can't start a new topic but the number 3 engine bleed air has a number 2 instead of 3.

Great plane!

Could the low idle buttons be made operational? I seem to recall they did in the P3d version.
Thanks

1. Keybinds for autopilot functions and heading bug.
2. A more modern Mode 3 transponder, or at least fix the one in it now.
3.  Low-speed ground idle.

Haven't a clue about your problem. Sorry.
New here, and trying to contact CaptainSim folks and have no clue how to do so other than this forum.

1. I love the C-130 MSFS. C-130 crew chief from years ago with more than 3000 hours flight time. Already logged 100 hours on it.

2. Would appreciate a ramp adjustment of 0 degree (level) ramp for inflight operations.

3. Would appreciate a quick toggle to flight engineer view of center console and overhead panel.

Thank you.
