- AP disconnect button on pilot yoke is now functional and clickable
(Systems)
- Synchronized the insim's master caution and warning variables with the HJETs warning variables for compatablility with external hardware

VERSION 2.0.0 RELEASED FEBRUARY 8, 2023
NOTE:This version introduces new functionalities based on the updated G3000 of AAU1(Aircraft and Avionics update 1 by Working Title/MS), this includes split
and indepent avionics for both pilot and co-pilot which could come at a performance penalty, however a "Lite" variation is made available for each livery with the same exact functionality as the normal
version, but with mirrorred instruments between both pilot and copilot, use the 'Lite' version if you are on a lower end PC or having perpormance issues with
the normal fully featured version. "Lite" variations can be selected from the main in sim aircraft liveries selection menu and will have " - Lite" in the livery name.
ChageLog:
Migrated HJET base avionics to AAU1 , HJET now supports all advanced functionality provided by working title's AAU1 update for the G3000:
Recoded and revised HJET's functionalities for native integration with new AAU1 standards, this includes rebuilding of the following pages:
- All Systems and their respective synoptics (Status/Environ/Electrical/Fuel/Hydraulics/Ice prot)
- All system controls pages(Interior lights/ Exterior lights /Thermostat)
- System initialization and test pages
- HJET's custom vertical situation display - now also supports half and full screens
- Load manager and Sim Options
- Checklists systems
- Crew Alerting System (CAS)
- PFD Aestetics are revised to match HJET's real life counterpart
Copilot PFD is now independent from pilot PFD
"Lite" variation are added to each livery featuring duplicated displays between pilot and copilot and the garmin touch screen controllers for a higher performant option.
Added acceleration monitoring to the autoThrottles , will now control maximum acceleration/deceleration while reaching assigned speed targets , and prevent full swings of throttle on speed chages
Auto throttle will not allow controlled speed to drop below 105 kias or exceed 270 kias
Auto Throttle will now limit acceleration if it can during FLC and VFLC
Revised and improved ground handling
Updated key bindings:
- AUTO_THROTTLE_ARM Toggle HJET auto throttle
- AUTO_THROTTLE_DISCONNECT Disable HJET auto throttle
- AP_AIRSPEED_ON Toggle HJET FMS/MAN speed select
- AP_AIRSPEED_HOLD Toggle HJET FMS/MAN speed select
- AP_BC_HOLD Toggle VNAV
- AP_BC_HOLD_ON Toggle VNAV"
