PA-28R Turbo Arrow III/IV

Oh thanks a lot ! I have still 0.5.0 - 0.5.1 is actuall... Thanks thanks thanks!

@martyn Sorry about the shape but I can't find another way yo say this. I am a owner of the arrow and turboarrow III / IV MSFS2020 bundle and I would like you incorporate an option to see the pilot inside the cockpit, since it is more immersive in VR. On the Aerofly AFS2 I have it like this and it feels good. Being able to see as if it were our body and not feel as if it were floating

Dear Martyn, I have just downloaded 0.5.1 and very quickly checked the Turbo IV, and am pleased to report all the GPSs now are powered up and seem to be working. Thank you again for getting the patch out so quickly, very much appreciated.

@retiredman93231 yes, the knob is a bit tucked away. It's good suggestion, thanks.

@si983 Yup....for unknown reasons, the sim may randomly bind things. My "in sim" bindings on the bravo are completely empty. Everything is done through spad.next. But just a couple days ago, out of nowhere, my landing light switch was stuck as being on. Wouldn't move via mouse interaction or hardware. After an hour or so of looking around it turned out for some reason "landing lights on" was mysteriously assigned to one of the bravos switches that just happened to be in that position. I've seen this happening for a year now, so it's not the first.

@ph-vma I think this is addressed in the upcoming 0.5.1 release notes https://community.justflight.com/topic/2257/update-change-logs-v0-5-0-released-edited-18-11-21

+1 Thank you very much!!! There are still a few things to correct that will be solved quickly with the good work of JF.

PA-28R TURBO ARROW III/IV MSFS - where I can find this update? I bought this addon via SimMarket and there is only v.0.4.0? Thank You!

@delta558 I stand corrected. Thank you for the clarification. That explains it nicely. I've since found the Piper Turbo Arrow IV Information Manual, which explains this further: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/58fe2dcfff7c500a04eda841/t/5c330a8b032be4fbaf385d84/1546848957043/AFM_HBPPB-compressed.pdf For information, section 7.5 in the above manual provides the following details: The turbocharger control system is a fixed, ground adjustable orifice ("fixed wastegate"), and is adjusted to provide 41 inches MAP at full throttle at 12,000 feet density altitude. Throttle position controls engine power and no separate turbocharger control system is utilized. An overboost valve prevents manifold pressure from exceeding 42 inches Hg. should the throttle inadvertently be opened too far below 12,000 feet density altitude. Should this occur, the amber "overboost" warning light in the annunciator panel will illuminate.

@retiredman93231 Yes, I have a button for it as well, but takeoff roll and short final (both have happened to me often) are not when I want to lose focus and look at the pretty airplane. But... I will endeavor to persevere, and wait somewhat impatiently for an update. And continue to tinker with graphics settings. I thought I'd solved it by reducing TAA to DLAA, I didn't have a glitch until final doing that, so we'll see.

I think I already know what I'm doing wrong ! I'm so used to the 747 auto tuning nav frequencies at least on approach, I don't think the 750 does auto tune the nav radios. Doh ! Think I'll try manually tuning the NAV radio ! #feelinglikeadoofus

@fakewayne Hi, there are several threads about this, it's happening in all the Pipers from JF as well as other 3rd party aircraft in MSFS. The devs are aware, and hopefully releasing a fix this week.

@vcapra1 sorry for the late reply, but yes that was it! Thanks!

@capt_nopants WOW! you've done a great job with upgrading your Turbo Arrow... sweet! Thanks for the details on the performance impacts of these upgrades. I totally agree that the problems with realistic mixture and turbocharger behavior in the sim are actually bugs in MSFS, which hopefully Asobo will see fit to fix some day soon, so that turbocharged aircraft can finally be flown correctly.
