I’m flying the CRJ-900 for the first time since the most recent iOS update. Using the autopilot but manually adjusting my speed, I cannot increase the speed past 220. Is anyone experiencing this?
CRJ-900 autopilot speed limited to 220?

Autopilot in the virtual cockpit or copilot using the menu overlay?

I wasn’t able to adjust speed in the virtual cockpit at all, but I’m not sure if I was doing something wrong there. -

In that case the copilot is being used. If you have your flaps or gear extended it will reduce the maximum selected airspeed to the maximum allowable speed. Retract flaps and gear then you can select a higher speed.

Jet-Pack (IPACS) could you add an actual animated copilot please? 🥹

Sorry, I personally can't do that. Out of my scope as a developer.

Oh ok, isn't it possible to mirror the existing animated captain to the right side when sitting in the left seat?

The model of the existing animation is not loaded by the aircraft, it is a special object that is animated. And so far only one of that animation object is possible. It affects more things that you might imagine at first.

Oh ok, thanks for the reply, I'm not a developer so I obviously don't know much about this, I thought it was much easier... Keep up the great work an I'm looking forward to Afs2024

You realise that the speed setting on the autopilot is only an adjusting pitch control for climbs and descents. It does not have an autothrottle?
Speed pitches for a pre-set airspeed, throttle determines the rate of climb or descent.

He is using the copilot interface, not the autopilot. The copilot allows you to select an airspeed to maintain as if all aircraft had an autopilot and autothrottle.
