    Glad you finally got it working! I have the ProDeskSim King Air levers for the Bravo. I don't really recommend them overall because the quality isn't good for the money imo, BUT they do have inserts with detents for the throttle and condition levers, so I don't need to worry about buttons -- beta, reverse, and hi/low idle/cutoff are easy to deal with. That right there is the best thing about the levers as far as I'm concerned.

    @Black-Square said in Aileron trim precision - possible to mod?: I actually reviewed this today, and both the Baron and Bonanza will have values of 0.25 in the next update. I changed it to .1 Otherwise, when using the mouse, I could nerver get the plane perfectly trimmed out. Anybody here using the Brunner yoke? I am working on a profile already quite a long time, but still not 100% happy.

    @tlvid I usually do a big round of updates in the summer, but I have been a little delayed this year due to forces beyond my control (house struck by lightning last week). I will likely focus my attention on updates as soon as the Commander 114 is released in a couple weeks. Sorry for the wait!

    @MD82 I don't think that the interior is to quiet, but exterior is to loud. If I turned the volume down to make the exterior quieter, I would barely hear most cockpit sounds like switches or buttons

    I switched from using (H:) events to the Input Events (IE:) for the GNS430, GNS530 and the GNS 530 Dual. Not familiar with Hanger Control however you or others may find this useful. Examples in Axis and Ohs for DirectTo: 1 1 (>IE:2:AS430_DIRECTTO) 1 1 (>IE:2:AS530_DIRECTTO) If Dual GNS 530's 1 1 (>IE:2:AS530_1_DIRECTTO) 1 1 (>IE:2:AS530_2_DIRECTTO) Perhaps Hanger Control also utilizes Input Events (IE:)

    @Black-Square Sorry about that one - for some reason I thought real taxiways changed the pavement markers too. Here's another one today: CYHZ Runway 32/14 - all of the signs say 23-05. Runway 23-05 is correctly marked. Let me know if you want me to continue to tag you on these - or just post and let you get to them when you can.

    Breaking: I found a way to solve the problem It can probably be done smarter, but the way it was solved was to delete (or rename) the Packages folder, MSFS will rebuild it after a restart, copy Bsq King Air and Asobo King Air from MSFS2020 to the Community folder and restart the sim. I am soooo happy, because now I can run the Gps via Glassout. And it turned out that I was not the only one with this problem, my brother in law had the same problem. But @Black-Square : pretty pretty please with sugar on the top: please release a 2024 version. I got cat pictures

    Hello! I've found what I believe might be a slight inconsistency with the real world aircraft in the model, in addition to the one already discussed about the wing thickness. The transition from the dorsal fin to the tail seems to be too "soft", and more aligned with how the newer TBM models look. The TBM 850 however seems to have a sharper angle between the two. Has there been any modifications on this part of the tail over the years? I'll add the same picture as I did in the other thread, as they show this quite well.

    @McOatmeal I'm not sure about the G1000, the G3X is very possible.

    @ramonesg I wanted to have the news update done for Monday, but my house was struck by lightning last night causing some damage, and I'm still discovering what has been fried. The strike blew some light switches straight out of the wall and across the room! Luckily, all my aircraft are safe, but my video editing computer (which I was using at the time) seems to have received some damage. Hopefully I will be back up and running with a recovered disk this week, and there was no actual damage to the hardware.

    @Black-Square My uncle used to be VP at Viking Air (Now the revived DHC). I may be able to help with finding contacts high up at DHC if that was ever an interest to you...

    I've often modified engine performance by taking its weight into account, using all the data I could find online. I've never shared my work on this because I don't have a real pilot's license.

The windshiel heat is on as you can se on the schematic table. And Still no weather addons in the game. just defult live weather. The ice builds up as soon as there is clouds and temps in the negatives, it can disappear if it gets clear skies but will return if I go in some clounds. And the heat is on at all time.

    I opened a ticket with SI on this also. For me, it wasn't doing this a couple weeks or so ago and doesn't do it when the SI app is closed. Must be they are turning com1 back on in MSFS due to tickets with people that don't know how it works. X-Plane 12 works perfectly, I can switch mics and turn off radio receivers without the com1 receiver coming back on after a few seconds with the SI app connected.

    @Black-Square I've never encountered a problem with anyone's hot-swapping (as far as I know), so I assume most 3rd party devs must be doing it "responsibly," so to speak. In that same discussion, an A2A dev is talking about how many variants they would have to have for their planes if they wanted to accommodate customers' requests without hot-swapping... I don't envy any of you the job of pleasing all of us lol

    Ah, thank you for uploading the video. That's exactly what I needed to see what you were talking about. That is an artifact of MSFS 2024's exposure compensation. You might be familiar with exposure compensation as the bright white skies you experience for a few seconds when looking up from a dark instrument panel. There are settings related to exposure compensation in the simulator's graphics menu, and you might be able to find more online about how to fine tune this feature. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you in the meantime.

    @Black-Square On #2 I meant an accumulator failure.. It was a slip on my part. I had reported this to you a few months ago. I edited my OP to correct my mistake. On #3, when I am demonstrating procedures for OEI, sometimes I can't get the prop to fully feather and I have to dive to get the inop engine RPM well above 1500 rpm and then quickly pull to feather detent. It's never that specific to get the prop to feather in the Baron.

    If I understand what you're looking to do, this would be determined solely by the font you include in your package. You should be able to accomplish almost any effect you're looking for, so long as you're willing to edit the font.
