Und jetzt auch für den A321 ein Update, für XP11 und XP12. Erst vor ein paar Tagen war es der A319.
Hi all,
and we can now also announce the big A321 update yet: The new version is V1.6 (build 1589) and this update brings the aircraft to the same level as our A320neo (with the respective functional difference between the two RL aircraft of course.)
There are tons of new stuff, as you can see in the changelog:

- ACARS Print function
- Rework of the sound suite for all engine types
Minor new features:
- ISCS redesign including a scalable ISCS.
- Retuned VLS and approach pitch
- Retuned the pitch moment balance with extended flaps
- Addition of 24 new C/Bs bringing the total to 161 functional C/Bs
- Addition of Radio Altimeter failure model
- Improved aircraft startup sequence simulating also MCDU, FWC and FMGS startup times
- Oil temperature indication on ECAM now changes according to logic specific for the given engine type
- Increase landing gear tire resolution for a rounder experience
- Added console lights (XP12 only)
- Increase number of possible simultaneous faults to 20
- Added PRED WS OFF memo
- Automatic reversion to arrival or departure ATIS request if regular ATIS is not available (via Hoppie network)
- Added DDRMI failure flags in case of loss of power or invalid needle angles
- Added different flap angles between A321CEO and A321NEO as in real life
Bug fixes:
- Added autopilot disconnection on manual trim.

- Some improvements to the smartcopilot.cfg file
- Fixed a bug that caused the GS Mini not to be considered with pilot selected VAPP.
- Fixed jitter of the L/DEV and V/DEV scales that can occur under certain conditions when performing a GA during a non-precisiong approach
- Inhibit of EGT OVERLIMIT warning following an engine shutdown due to fire
- Brought the REV SET ECAM Caution back
- Fixed mouse wheel function on WX Radar System switches
- Fixed FBW behaviour in case of loss of both FAC (no reversion to direct on L/G extension)
- Fixed FBW upmode logic to allow automatic upmode to normal law if conditions triggering a degenerated law are gone.
- Fixed link between APU start capability and battery availability
- Improved VLS computation in dual hydraulic cases with slats frozen in the retracted position.
- Improved rudder authority for VMGC and Beta target
- Fixed a crash in PDC/CPDLC messages if there are space characters in the wrong spot.
- Fixed a bug with fuel consumption during 200NM jumps
Enjoy!
