Here is a further explainations of some of the new features:
NEW STOVL DYNAMICS AND AUTO-TAKEOFF
********************************************
The F-35B features new STOVL dynamics courtesy of Rob Barendregt.
The new dynamics should offer a more realistic performance in most conditions, and a new handling scheme which, as far as we know, is closer to the real thing.
The new STOVL dynamics also introduce the "auto-takeoff" feature, in which the aircraft takes off automatically in the shortest possible distance.
To activate this mode, when the a/c is on the ground or on the deck and still:
- Select STOVL mode (AUTO T/O appears in RED in the FCS page=
- Apply full brakes (AUTO T/O turns blue)
- Select AUTO T/O (turns white)
- Release the brakes and enjoy the show
CNI AND AUTOPILOT KEYPAD
****************************
Keypads are now active and can be used to program the CNI and the Autopilot. Note however that the BACK and ENT functions are not implemented - just enter as many digit as needed and retry if need be.
Example 1 - SET NAV RADIO TO 113.00
- Select CNI PAGE
- Click on the NAV 1 SWAP digits
- Enter 1-1-3-0-0
- Click on NAV 1 SWAP to swap frequencies
Example 2 - Change Heading to 188°
- Select Autopilot Page
- Click on HDG
- Enter 1-8-8
MODELS WITH NO VIRTUAL COCKPIT GEOMETRY FOR COCKPIT BUILDERS
***********************************************************************
Model folders now contain models without cockpit geometry, intended for use by cockpit builders.
To activate this feature open the MODEL folder of the aicraft you wish to convert and open the model.cfg with a text editor and follow the instructions inside the file.

Dino, thanks for the hard work as usual. Is there any word when 3.11 will be released to the public from the vendors? I have checked my Flightsim Store account ever since this post was released and still showing 3.10 for P3D. It sucks cause I installed 3.10 and now the displays are jacked as you were describing. Thanks again for the hard work.
It usually takes a week or so fo them to handle the update...
In the meantime, you can download this version of MFD2.XML and replace the one in SimObjects/Airplanes/F-35A/Panel/F-35_MFD folder and it will fix the problem (note:it needs to be done only in the F-35A folder - all other versions are linked to that).

Thanks Dino, all is good now. FSS got it uploaded the other night and I have it installed now :)
Hello Dino. I purchased your FSX version of the F-35 and have enjoyed it since 2012.
Can you tell me if the freeware F-35 supports Tacpack ? also if I purchase the new 3.11 Tacpack version with the FSX patch will the Tacpack version work in FSX ?
Thanks for all the hard work,your aircraft are top quality.
please bake some ambient occlusion to your cockpit and exterior parts man, those interiors look like freeware quality without it... i would buy if you had some AO baked on the F35...
Wonderful trip managements sharing the great journey.

Dino, hey buddy I had to rebuild my computer and do a fresh install of everything. In the process I have reinstalled my P3D, VRS+TP, and now the F-35 Package. I am noticing though that now since my reinstall of everything I have no HMD and no FLIR imaging in the cockpit. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks for any help.
I am wondering if this is not something to do with a combination of P3D v3.4 (newest build) and the new TacPack release. Just guessing as i continue to troubleshoot.
Can I fly that plane in fsx?
