525A Citation CJ2 HD Series for FSX | P3D

Hi all I just wanted to share my version of the GTN 750 integration for the CJ2. Though I'm not a fan of the current mod that is available, I am a fan of some of the techniques Bert and Raymar used to get it to work. I guess I'm of the minor (very minor) few who actually wanted to maintain as much of the cj2s original systems as possible with this integration. For example, I didn't want to lose the glare shield annunciator light panel's original state (don't like the engine instruments up there even if you can switch between the two). I also wanted the CDU to still work (in all its limited glory). The later was simply so I had two sources of navigation for over water…

There are screenshots taken at various levels of completion throughout this forum but, your CJ2 Mod Squad is now ready to show off some outstanding updates and modifications for our Carenado CJ2 Citation. I'm sure someone will post an overview with some neat screenshots, but for now I am going to just tease you with a few basic ones to get you started. <<<< 3 screenshots at the end of this novel >>>> We had a short beta test and found a few rough edges but overall we feel our package is well worth the price you are paying. This is not a completed piece of work as we expect to continue with minor updates and additions. As a matte…

So I finally installed the CJ2 into P3D v5 (HF1). It's been a long time since I've flown this aircraft...I started with Cold and Dark and found that I could not get the avionics switch to turn on the displays/radios. Everything else appeared to work OK...I could start the aircraft but still not avionics. When I went to "Shift+8" and toggled "Ready for Taxi" the avionics/radios came on. Like I said...it's been a while since I've flown this aircraft...am I missing something/a step starting from C&D? I installed v1.1 (re-downloaded today from Carenado), installed the aircraft into the P3D v5 folder and then ran Carenado's P3D v5 compatibility file. Everyth…

Is it just me or something's wrong with radio panel(com 1/com 2 dial and speaker/headphone switches)? Tuned com 2 on the speaker(switch up) and turned it off(switch middle) and then endless receiving. I fortunately got into Jevon's gtn 750 integration but still, oh god, even radio is not working properly in 40 dollar-ish aircraft? I really hope I'm the one who's making mistakes here.

does any one have the lua codes for things like anti-collision lights, land taxi rec lights and such? It's nice not having to look allover to click on a switch. PMDG is good about it for the cockpit builders. Anything will help.

I've installed the 525 CJ2 into P3Dv5. I've installed the mods for the GTN, click spots, heading adj, vertical speed adj, etc. It all works very well...but the fonts and display are very poor when compared to P3DV4.5 HF2. Just wondering if anyone experienced this and solved it?

I've been trying for many hours and can't get my FMS data to load from Navigraph to my Carenado CJ2. ( FSX SE / Windows 10) Is there someone out there that could tell me how to map the update. I have conflicting info on whether to go to root FSX, Sim Objects, Airplanes or other places. Thanks, Jim.

Hi all, I am interested of getting the 525A, but would like to know if the Panel upgrade mods are still available???? I own the F1 GTN combined Thank you.

Does the weather radar on the Carenado CJ2 require Active Sky Next? I just tried to get it to work by selecting really bad weather in the FSX standard menu, then turning the FORMAT to ARC mode (also tried the others) and clicking on the RADAR button twice to get RDR selected. It then shows the "WX T+0.0" on the PFD and I can change the tilt angle with the knob, but I do not see anything on the screen. The TERR mode works fine, just the weather radar is blank.

I'm getting an error that I have used my key too many times. Can this be reset? I have only used it maybe 5 times max.

Hi, I'm having an issue my Carenado 525A CJ2 in FSX Steam Edition, I just re-downloaded and installed it on my PC again after I replaced my hard drive. Now every time I use it I have no engine noise at all, along with no startup noises. I get noises from the warnings and all the other switch setting, just not the engines. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hey all, Is there an Alternate panel you would recommend for the CJ2 for FSX Box, that DOES NOT utilize the GTN? I would really like to fly this bird, but at the moment it's a slide show because of the CarenadoNavigraph issue that it's unflyable, unless I turn off the Avionics.

Hey folks. Grabbed the 525A today. I've encountered two issues on P3D V4 : 1. the FMS is out of date and I cannot update it using navigraph FMS system. Is there any other way of updating it ? 2. When putting in the flight plan, I can put waypoints directly after VORs etc. I can't seem to enter an airway to a Fix point or VOR, am I doing something wrong? Regards, Ryan

Anyone else had it? Had it tonight. Took off in very pleasant METAR. Climbed 1000 AGL - suddenly Stick Shaker - wouldn't shut off - even though we levelled and saw IAS exceed 220. Flaps Up, Gear Up, Everything stowed and clean as a whistle. Back on the ground after an Emergency Landing - all well but shocked and pee'd off - expensive clients aboard! I call BUG! Anyone else? (We did the Rotary Warning/ Test as part of the Pre-Flight.)

Hi All How functional is the FMS and avionics package on the Carenado CJ2, not much information on the purchase page Regards Wayne

I received notification today that a new update is available at Simmarket for the CJ2. Does anyone know what the changes are?

All, I am wondering if It would be possible to request a repaint of a real world Citation CJ that I used to see at KSNA all the time. The real planes is a CJ3 but I think it would look really good on a CJ2. I really liked the paint and was wondering if someone would be able to create the paint. This paint job is the same as N525CD.

Hello, I am new here in the AVSIM Forum. I am searching for a checklist for the CJ2 in PDF format or a picture of one, that i can make my own based on the picture. The Carenado Checklists are nice, but i need a shorter one, only the Normal Procedures without the detailed instructions of any step. Thanky you and greetings from Germany :smile:

I downloaded the Careanado's 525A CJ2 from the web site last night and installed it with Anti Virus disabled. It appeared to installed OK. When I start up FSX and select the CJ2 it crashes FSX. I haven't noticed the Navigraph update either. If I start up FSX with any other A/C then switch to CJ2 the A/C comes up. I have deleted and downloaded and installed 3 times with the same effect. After deleting A/C and reinstalling it there was no notification to OK any of the .dll files normally used by third party aircraft venders. Anyone have any suggestions that might help me out. Looking at event log error I found this cause: Faulting application name: fsx.exe, vers…

After getting Javon's GTN 750 MOD i purchased carenado's CJ2. I downloaded it off Careanado's web site and installed it with Anti Virus disabled. It appeared to installed OK. When I start up FMS and select anyone of the aircraft it crashes FMS. I haven't noticed the Navigraph update either. It I start up FMS with any other A/C then switch to CJ2 the A/C comes up. I have deleted and downloaded and installed 3 times with the same effect. Anyone have any suggestions that might help me out.

Has anyone else had this issue? I bought this aircraft about 6 months ago, but I'm only finding time to try it out now. Basically every time I try to load a scenario with the CJ2 P3D quits on me. I don't even get an error message. There is nothing showing up in the event viewer either, which I find really odd. I've tried doing a full uninstall/reinstall as well, but to no avail.

Once plane is loaded, it stutters really bad. What I mean by this is that as I pan around the cockpit there is such a delay in the response from the time that I look around the cockpit that it is almost like a slide show. It has worked for me in the past but just recently started doing this. I have the most recent Carenado products and they work fine. this problem happens with this plane and also with the King air products, namely the 350i and the GTX C90. All my other planes work great. I have decreased FSX settings to see it that would help, but it doesnt. Not sure if there is something common with these three aircraft that could be causing the problem. I re-installed a…

OK gang, Here is what I have working so far. I replaced the VC MFD with the full GTN750 with the popup click spot in the normal lower left side. Popup to get to the Menu and Directo buttons and whenever you need the frame. Otherwise you can see it in the VC just fine. I added a flight plan, set the GTN to be primary active and loaded the plan. I setup the PFD for FMS at the PRESET. I clicked Nav and the GTN took over and started tracking the flightplan. All the AP functions are working - ALT, FLC, VS, NAV, HDG. Looking good. Now,I can return the popped up GTN back to the MFD box and if I click on the top of the MFD, the MFD pops up WITH ALL THE ENGINE …

Hi all, This is a silly question (but that's never stopped me before...) Is it possible to do a partial mod of the CJ2 panel? What I'm looking for are the mods minus the GTN. In other words, I'm looking for a config with the modified FMS (blue info screen) and the updated click spots but still retain everything else as stock. Is such a thing do-able? Thanks! Brian

After being a fan of the PC-12, TBM850, and King Airs 200&350, I decided to get myself the CJ2. All started off very well, I found it actually quite simple and relaxing for the first few flights. Unfortunately, about 3 days after purchasing it, it now won't even load into the game. By this, I mean that I select it from my hangar on FSX, then click "ok" to return to the menu to complete my selection of airport, weather, and time, and when I do this, the sim simply crashes (stops responding). I haven't had any luck getting the CJ to work since, and Carenado has been no help either. Since I have had this for no more than a week, I shouldn't already be having a …
