FSLabs Updates A321ceo and neo for MSFS 2020/2024
Quick summary· AI-generated
FSLabs' experimental update 11.0.1.347 overhauls the A321ceo/neo with major FMS improvements (lateral/vertical navigation, arrivals/departures, predictions), enhanced autopilot and flight director logic, expanded hardware cockpit support (new SimConnect events for GPWS, DU controls, panel lighting, weather radar), deeper GSX integration (stand matching, pushback reliability, door timing), improved online pilot features (vPilot COMM integration, CPDLC European formats), and Rowsfire/Wingflex compatibility. The update also addresses visuals (wing/flap/door textures), sound (surround, low-frequency, rain behavior), and underlying system reliability across FWC, ECAM, electrical, hydraulics, and engine modeling.
Excerpt from Threshold
Update 11.0.1.347 (Experimental) brings a wide range of refinements to the flight management system, with improved lateral and vertical revisions, predictions, arrivals, departures, airways, secondary flight plans, performance pages, and GPS monitoring. Furthermore, it also brings updates to roll and pitch behavior, flap full pitch, drag curves, yaw stability, rotation tuning, ground handling, and alternate/direct law logic, alongside improvements to the autopilot, flight director, and descent logic, with better FD tracking, initial descent behavior before top of descent, and additional protections around edge cases where mode changes could produce unexpected results.
FSLabs has also worked on the Electronic Flight Bag and its ground handling behavior, improving the Navigraph map feature, map loading for the moving map, screen rendering, long-session stability, and new calibration tools for thrust levers and flap axes. GSX-wise, the integration has been greatly improved with tweaks to stand matching, ground service handling, cargo door timing, pushback reliability, rear door operation for stair deboarding, and better use of remote mode when required.
The experimental update also brings quality-of-life improvements for online pilots, such as adding vPilot integration to the COMM page on the FMGC, and CPDLC support has been expanded with new European station formats. ATSAW support has also been improved, now featuring FSLTL callsigns on traffic.
Hardware and Cockpit support have been further improved, with the addition of new SimConnect events, including GPWS, DU controls, ACP, panel lighting, weather radar, cockpit door controls, and overhead events, alongside extended XPDR screen output, home cockpit sound mode, and the implementation of the weather radar tilt function. They have also brought deeper integration with Rowsfire and Wingflex products.
The developers have also polished visuals and sound, with revisions to the wing, flaps, slats, wheel textures, door logic, and VR cursor behavior. The sounds now benefit from low-frequency tweaks, surround sound features, and more accurate rain sound behavior when the electrical power is off.
They have also implemented reliability fixes under the hood across the FWC, ECAM logic, electrical components, hydraulics, failures, IRS/ADIRS, displays, and engine modeling. The complete changelog follows below:
