Latest Updates from Circuit Avionics

MobiFlight 11.2, Update Guidance, Required Settings, New Installer

Jetblue Super Mario - MobiFlight 11.2 update Circuit Avionics

Alongside MobiFlight's latest update, we're pleased to introduce a related package of improvements.


MobiFlight 11.2

The release of MobiFlight 11.2 brings several improvements that we know you'll appreciate, including UI and usability changes and bug fixes.

Double-click to Open

One change we’re especially pleased to see is support for opening .mcc and .mfproj Aircraft Profiles directly:

  • Close MobiFlight
  • Double-click the .mcc or .mfproj file
  • MobiFlight starts and opens the profile automatically

Combined with automatic Controller Bindings introduced earlier in the year, MobiFlight is much more streamlined, particularly for newer pilots.

You can find out more in Sebastian’s MobiFlight 11.2 video:

New Firmware Guidance

MobiFlight 11.2 also includes new firmware, optimised for improved performance with more complicated setups containing large numbers of inputs and outputs.

Firmware updates make changes directly to your device, so a reliable USB connection is important. If you choose to update, we now advise:

  • Firmware updates should only be accepted when the device is plugged directly into the back of your PC (no USB hub, adaptor or extension device).

For most Circuit Avionics pilots, the firmware update is not essential and can be skipped.

Software Updates Guidance

In relation to MobiFlight software updates, we now advise:

  • Updates may be offered on installation, and on other occasions.

  • You don't have to update right away, and your hardware will work fine without any updates. Over time, you might miss useful new features.

Customised MobiFlight Installer

Alongside these changes, we’ve created a new Circuit Avionics MobiFlight Installer.

For new users, the installer automatically applies our Required and Recommended Settings.

For existing users, the installer applies one Required Setting, and updates MobiFlight if necessary, while preserving all other settings.

The new installer removes MobiFlight's prompt to convert third-party hardware into a MobiFlight device, as this is not required by Circuit Avionics pilots.

We have removed the associated large red warning at the top of the Getting Started page.


What’s Next?

To round out these changes, we’ve started work on a new setup video showing the simpler onboarding process for new users.

We’re also improving our social channels as a way to keep pilots up to date, so please follow us on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Discord.

Discord has also become a useful way to send us Aircraft Profile requests. Please keep them coming, as they help us prioritise what to support next.

As usual, we have several new and updated Aircraft Profiles lined up, including requests received through Discord and email.
