TBM 850

@Black-Square said in A list of Squawks as a 10+ year TBM Maintainer: This is the only tough one, unfortunately. As I just explained to someone else in another thread, MSFS does not really have any support for beta range, and everything you see here is me fighting with the underlying simulation to get what I want. For whatever reason, the propeller simulation creates a decrease of RPM when reducing the blade pitch into the beta range. I've considered adding yet another patch of my own on top of this simulation to mitigate the problem, but too many patches on top of patches can become a dangerous thing in software, unfortunately. I have no knowledge about the real aircraft behavior, however would like to add one point from a pure flightsim perspective: It is basically impossible to find a power setting that maintains taxi speed at a stable level. If I control the power lever with the keyboard F2 & F3 I can set increments of 1%. If I have a setting that increases speed, reducing by 1% already slows the aircraft down. If this is similar in the real aircraft I would accept this. If not, I would appreciate checking if the a stable speed can be achieved with a broader range of power lever setting, knowing that aircraft weight & weather conditions have an influence as well. Anyway, @Subsonic many thanks for your real maintenance view, if you can also on my comment.

@JakeBunny Thank you so much. My family and friends will tell you that I have been absolutely giving my entire life to these aircraft over the last few years, but messages like that make it worth the while

Not until we get a full new sound set for the TBM instead of using the Asobo TMB sounds.

Same here, I can't get my Logitech Radio Panel to work with the Dukes (in MSFS2024). I then exited the flight, launched in with a default Asobo aircraft and the radio panel worked fine, so then exited that flight and launched back into the Duke and the panel went off. I confirmed that Master and Avionics switch positions didn't seem to make any difference ... so not sure what's going on there as it's OK with other aircraft (although standby frequency selection currently doesn't work in the FenixSim A320).

great, it works! thanks a lot for help and fast reply

@SadBucket said in GNS530 issue after latest MSFS2020 SU16: you can select the KX155B as secondary with the 750. That is what I have been doing. Of course, but IRL I wouldn't file RNAV IFR routes without a backup GPS unit. And since I fly mostly to smaller airports where RNAV approaches are far more common... The best solution, of course, would be to have support for a backup 650 or even dual 750s. I note there's an active topic discussing just that.

Following this because I'm very interested in being able to address KVars like that with something I'm trying to do with Starship.

@Black-Square Sorry I know it’s a little old now. But please please another 750, if impossible a smaller 630. I recently bought it from marketplace on Xbox and overall it’s my favourite plane you guys make. But I can’t get over the flaws and some of the unrealistic aspects of the 530, like having no data page in the AUX tab yet being capable of NEXRAD. I know I’m nuts fussing over a small detail like that, but please do it if possible. I made an account just for this post lol.

Once I land and shutdown, I "restart" my flight, then end the flight. This method works for me across all Black Square aircraft.

@Black-Square thanks for responding. I will dig in and see how it goes

Just realized I never replied here. No issues found. I do not have PMS and do not intend to get it.

@hangar_101 @kityatyi I might be missing something here, but what is there to "not work" in the Bonanza? There should be nothing stopping you from creating this modification for any of my aircraft. Obviously you need to position all the characters correctly for each aircraft, but this is no different than I would have to do to include this in the base installation. As I've explained, I just made the executive decision not to do this before Asobo "fixes" the regressions with character models in MSFS 2024. That conversation is still ongoing on the developer forums, btw.

It's looking like a TDS issue, there's a beta fix available on their discord, in case anyone else ends up at this post looking for something similar.

@jmarkows Yikes, I don't know what they are thinking with 100kt gusts lol. First approach I had it set to "Low" and it was good. I did a missed approach and then came back around on "Medium" and found it very manageable as well, with a little bit of added challenge.

It works! Thanks for the help and the quick response. I'll spread the word in discord.
