Steam Gauge Overhaul

@voice-of-reason Is the Bonanza still in development? Really looking forward to seeing the treatment Black Square brings to it. And is it safe to assume it's going to be an A36, the non-glass version of the G?

@elglon Your statement that low idle provides less thrust is only true for the idle setting. At take-off it does not make any difference. Only when pulling the levers back to idle the thrust will be different.

@elglon So I tried again today, and it worked just fine for me! Flew a beautiful flight from Mount Cook to Queenstown. Bumpy approach in the mountains, but not bad for my first try.

I have some competing theories regarding what was going on. Firstly, I turned off all engine failures (though none were registered). I did not have any open circuit fuses. Secondly, I closed the app SkyDolly, which I use for inflight recordings. I've noticed previously that SkyDolly has done some strange stuff to my airplane systems. I'll see if I can reproduce the issue and post back any updates that I have. But for now, the issue seems to have been resolved.

@steve6248 It clearly is a typo in the manual.

I'm afraid this issue has cropped up again after the recent GNS update. Had issues with the AP today after updating, but the issues went away after removing the beta. One other fix I suspect would work but that I didn't try was removing the TDS GTN750NXi from the community folder. I think that's worked before. But anyway, I just wanted to mention this again.

I hear the stall warning when activating the test switch that you are referring to. Could it be a tripped circuit breaker?

Disregard. For any unknown reason it suddenly works. There were no changes from my side...:face_with_rolling_eyes:

I just found out the electrical_circuit_toggle event (146) is the key to activate both prop test gov and gnd idle stop functions.

@taipan303

Just in case someone wants to map rudder and electric trim switches

Rudder => CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:125 (1) ON (0) OFF
Elect Trim => CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:73 (1) ON (0) OFF

@gcarlson Cheers Gary, worked for me too!

Ah. That’s interesting. I’ll check that out. Many thanks. Richard

I have taken the advice of Anderson and removed the TDS gauge from the community file. This allows the pms 750 to work ( albeit in the TDS panel ). I assume if I uninstall the TDS altogether it may show the pms panel but I’m happy with the compromise! Richard

@jamest_il said in Windshield de-icing in the Caravan:

I also have this problem.

@haseen On the Discord channel, the developer has said that the WT module will not affect the 172 in any way.

I'm having a huge fps drop as well. Mine happens on at the air, losing ~20 fps, and gets even worse after landing. It happens only in the King Air
