iniBuilds A380-800 RR Basic in FlightFabric: voice commands, cockpit controls and live data

Call out a switch and watch it move, tap the same controls on a phone or tablet beside you, and see the cockpit state read back from the aircraft. This page lists everything FlightFabric 0.11.1 can do with the iniBuilds A380-800 RR Basic, taken from the app’s own catalogue.

Aircraft covered

Load this aircraft in MSFS 2024 and FlightFabric switches to its cockpit layout and control set by itself. There is nothing to configure in the app.

  • iniBuilds Airbus A380-800 RR

Vendor: iniBuilds. Other A380-800 RR products from other developers are not covered by this page.

Current scope: A380-800 RR Basic only, checked with aircraft package 1.0.0. Exterior lights, COM1/COM2 radios, flight director, cabin signs, air-system switches and flap/spoiler lever selections have ground validation. Selected speed, heading, altitude and V/S targets have also been checked on the ground; flight validation remains outstanding.

AP1/AP2 and autothrust engagement controls, managed-mode push/pull, Mach and TRK/FPA controls are not available. Other engine and cabin variants remain unverified. APU starts soon after shutdown may fail confirmation; a confirmed start request does not mean the APU is available.

What you need

  • FlightFabric 0.11.1 on the Windows PC that runs Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, with the aircraft installed. MSFS and the aircraft are separate products; FlightFabric is free and needs no account.
  • Voice control is optional and runs offline in the desktop app; the voice-control guide covers microphone and push-to-talk setup in five steps.

Try saying

Hold push-to-talk, say one of these, and release. Numbers are spoken as digits, so 270 is “two seven zero”. Each phrase below is accepted by FlightFabric 0.11.1 for the iniBuilds A380-800 RR Basic.

  • “Set speed two five zero”

    Selected speed: 250 kt

  • “Set heading two seven zero”

    Selected heading: 270 deg

  • “Start apu”

    APU master ON, allow 5 seconds to settle, then request START. Requires aircraft electrical power.

  • “Set lights for takeoff”

    Landing ON · nose T.O · strobe ON · navigation ON

  • “Beacon lights on”

    Beacon lights: on

  • “Seat belts on”

    Seat belts: on

Every command

The full list, grouped by cockpit system. Every control here is also available from the Aircraft page and its control library, so you can tap it on a tablet instead of saying it. Setting a target such as a heading does not engage the autopilot; the aircraft’s current mode decides how it uses the target.

Presets

A preset works through several switches in order and reports each step, the way a pilot monitoring runs a flow. It stops, rather than retrying, when the aircraft does not confirm a step.

More cockpit controls

Individual switches in the system sections of the Aircraft page, with the positions each one can be set to. The control library search finds them too.

Live cockpit data

The Aircraft page shows these 51 values as the aircraft reports them, next to the controls that change them. What you see is the switch position in the cockpit, not what the app last asked for.

Verification status

Of the 68 aircraft-specific controls in FlightFabric 0.11.1, 60 are confirmed in a live simulator session, 8 are partially confirmed. The status beside each control above comes from the app’s source and is shown in its integration guide too.

Verified
Verified in the simulator: the control was checked in a live MSFS 2024 session and the aircraft confirmed the change.
Partial
Partially verified: part of the control’s behaviour was confirmed in the simulator.
Untested
Awaiting in-sim verification: the mapping comes from the aircraft’s documented cockpit variables and events and has not yet been confirmed in a live session by the project.
Standard
Standard simulator control: a standard simulator event rather than an aircraft-specific mapping.

Every control is guarded the same way: FlightFabric sends it once, waits for the aircraft to report the new switch position, and shows a failure instead of retrying. A few momentary controls are confirmed only by the simulator accepting the command. If a control does not respond on your installation, please report it on GitHub with the aircraft version so it can be fixed.
