TBM 850

What a strange coincidence. I was working on the TBM yesterday for the first time in months and was surprised that nobody had spotted this yet. Already fixed. Thank you!

Not OP, but that's fantastic, I had just assumed this wasn't an option with the 750 setup. Thanks!

Do you have any hardware that might be setting the radio frequencies? That seems an unlikely cause, but I've never seen anything that would stop the ADF from receiving the events to adjust the frequency. The next thing I might have you try would be to assign a keyboard shortcut to adjust/swap the ADF frequency in the simulator's controls menu, instead of using the knob in the cockpit. Have you tried changing the ADF frequency in other aircraft? Does it work there?

I have TBM 850 and Duke stutters as well in MSFS2024. Very bothersome in VR. Thanks for working with Asobo to fix this.

@Black-Square Thank you very much. Looking forward to it.

Hi All,

I wanted to let you know that I have been true to my word and applied my knowledge from the Starship to the KAS 297B. I have a solution now that functions as described in the manual, but can also still be used with native hardware bindings and the old functionality, if so desired.

This means that you will be able to use the KAS 297B, as seen in SteveO's videos (as discussed in another thread on these forums), with altitude arming, vertical speed arming, vertical speed synchronizing, control-wheel steering, and pitch adjustment with an associated rocker switch. The only exception is that altitude capture will automatically arm when a climb or descent is initiated in the direction of the selected altitude. This is a core MSFS limitation, as altitude capture is set wholly on or off in the aircraft's configuration files. It's possible that I will come up with a creative solution to this too in time. I will include this change in the TBM 850, and my Baron Professional and Bonanza Professional, which will be officially announced soon.

Thank you again for your discussion here, as it helps me prioritize new features, and gives me the insight to design them in a way that will not disrupt current users with my updates. Without you guys, I can't count how many features would not exist that I have become very proud of in my aircraft!

Think I may have discovered the problem on my system. It seems the flight plans take far longer to appear on the GS530 compared to some other aircraft.

Unfortunately, there is only so much that I can do within the limitations of the simulator, and most "workaround" features that I produce for my aircraft are the result of an embarrassing amount of trail and error to thread a fine needle between one rock and another hard place. What you're seeing here when sitting on the ground observing an ILS from the centerline is the result of MSFS's lack of easily accessible variables for navigation aids without querying a database. It forces me to treat many navigation aids as the same type of antenna, or directionally agnostic, for instance. For another example, the VOR's treatment close to the ground is a result of not using a terrain database and computationally expensive ray-tracing algorithms, but instead comparing the altitude of the aircraft to the receiver and applying various curves based on antenna radiation patterns and attenuation constants to arrive at a believable solution that is also light on performance.

All that being said, the reason I am often so delighted to have this forum is that it allows me to add requested features and changes to a never-ending list of items to revisit during future development. Next time I am doing work near my signal degradation code (likely for the Baron and Bonanza Professional), I will see if I can come up with some more clever tricks to improve signal integrity while operating on the airfield's surface for you. As is so often the case, I may already have some ideas of what can be done after looking at the code again while writing this.

@Ridux

Can't say anything about the first question other than I believe it is unofficially compatible.

It works 99% for me. Some 3rd party liveries don't work, some do. I had some issues with the registration not displaying correctly on the exterior. However, this has gotten better in the SU1 beta. You can set the registration before starting your flight and it will display appropriately most of the time.

You need to drag and drop the TBM 930 from MSFS 2020 into your MSFS 2024 community folder in order to get the sounds. I just flew it today and had a great flight with no bugs.

@sg_aviation
OK, so this indicator uses a change in the white arc to indicate Vs since there is no green arc like on many airspeed gauges where the end of the green arc is Vs.
Thanks,
Al

Ok thank you so much for the info !

@lucasrmdm Good to hear! :)

@Raller said in Oil temperature scale:

You can use my repaint. I have already fixed the bug (the texture) there.

I know, and thank you! It was me who suggested you to update your livery in the first place. I'm very happy for it thanks a lot!

@Black-Square it would be nice to have it corrected across the board ;-)

It’s a great aircraft I hope the code gets all the tweaks and updates to bring this up to the level of the duke

Hi @glideslope, I appreciate your detailed reply. I will follow your tips.
Wish you a joyful and safe flights.

If you want to try, I've had pretty good success with copying the TBM 850 folder over to the 2024 community folder. But you also have to copy the Asobo TBM 930 folder to it's same location in 2024. And I've seen an issue with the exterior lights, but otherwise it seems to be functional.

@Black-Square SOLVED ! found "752" inside ATC option related to TBM inside mfs menu: deleted and cleared filed, all tail numbers are properly shown as expected.
I don't know when and why that field was not empty! thank you and hoping this may be useful for othes simmers.

Using Ryan's location in post 8, I found the 'asobo-aircraft-tbm930' folder and copied it into my 2024 Community folder which had the TBM850 folder in there. Now the TBM850 flies great in MSFS2024 with engine sound and the newly released TDS GTN750 Pro patch (see TDS Support forum),

Thanks for your help guy's
