    @hangar_101 Also from the manual, p. 59 (emphasis mine): The Bonanza Professional is equipped with an electromechanically actuated air conditioning condenser scoop on the bottom fuselage of the aircraft. When the air conditioner is not in use, the door is fully stowed to minimize drag. When the air conditioner is used in flight, the door is only partially extended. When the air conditioner is activated and the landing gear is extended, the condenser door is fully opened to provide better cooling during ground operations. The air conditioner should be turned off and the door retracted before takeoff to ensure maximum climb performance. The additional drag produced by the air conditioner condenser scoop will rob the aircraft of several knots when in cruise flight, but could produce as much as 10 knots worth of drag should the door become stuck in the fully extended position during flight.

    This only goes for the normally aspirated Baron. I haven't experienced it with any other variant or model. When starting on the runway or a custom location with the ready for takeoff state, the engine will die if the throttle is at idle. It feels like it's loading in a state that is not quite 'ready for takeoff'. Apologies if my terminology is inaccurate, and the behaviour I describe might be intentional but I spent a long time trying to work out if it was a bug because I haven't experienced it before.

    In MSFS2024, my config. control bindings save no problem at all for the Stock Duke and Turbine Duke. But, they do NOT save for the Grand Duke. I've removed them and re-done them, and everytime if I load the Grand Duke I have to set up the control binding presets etc. Is there a way for me to correct this behaviour?

    @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

    I had to re-install MSFS 2024 and all aircraft following a drive failure and I'm running into a strange issue with the TBM 850 that I've not seen before. The number 2 GNS 530 seems to be mirroring the #1 unit whether I'm using the TDS GTN 750 or the GNS 530 as Nav/Com 1. If i use the TDS unit as #1 and the King Nav/Com as #2 both units work properly. I've tried wiping (Including removing the state file manually) and re-installing and the problem persists. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? Scott

    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.

    @Buzz thanks for posting that, the Command 114, 685 and 690B look interesting, especially the 690B. Hoping the King Air is next to release.
