TBM 850

Check for a popped circuit breaker. You may have a failed transponder.

For my part, I felt that the wind had an excessive effect on the aircraft even though it was below 5 knots. However, my approach speed was slightly insufficient, which may have amplified that impression.

I knew I had read about this very topic somewhere on the forums, and it turns out it was my own topic I'm seeing the same issue in 2024. I'm guessing there were no WT avionics advancements in the new sim, Nick? There's another topic elsewhere on here about some WT v2 avionics, have you looked at those at all? It's interesting rereading that note, though, that the difficulty lies in the fact that not all of them use the same/default flight planner. That would be the one instance I expect the WT stuff to excel at because of how baked in it is.

Damn, looks like this is still an issue in 2024. I was up at FL 290 doing about 320 over the ground, and I tried reducing the propeller RPM and it shaved a good 15 or more knots off my ground speed going from 2000 to 1750 (the lowest it would go). TRQ went from about 95 to 105 as one would expect.

Had the same issue, first flight, 100% done nothing wrong ... Luckily found this in the EFB ...

You don't need to press the test button, no. Follow the checklist, make sure the four gyro button are on. Then you have the radio master switch, AP master, and EFIS master switch. For takeoff, in low winds you can set the rudder between center and TO notch. In winds greater than 7-8 knots, put the rudder to TO line. You don't need to set aileron trim. If everything is setup correctly, the plane will maintain a heading with minimal pull to the left. Adjust the rudder trim to account for any pull to the left. The slower you are, the more rudder trim you will need, and as you build speed you will need to center the rudder. Watch the ball right below the attitude indicator/EFIS, and keep it centered. If the plane is trimmed, the plane will only pull a very little, and that can be countered with aileron if needed. I never use aileron trim however. With AP on, the plane will hold a heading or NAV/GPS route just fine, even if the ball isn't centered. You're just introducing more drag by not centering it. The only thing I can think of is that perhaps you have some assistance setting on that are interfering with the plane. Yes, the plane does pull more than others I've used, but it is a normal amount of pull and certainly not uncontrollable or inappropriate. Make sure these are on and the trim is set to TO, or close to it (it's centered here). The elevator trim works best at the bottom of the green for takeoff: [image: b0207051-1f05-4ddf-818d-4d294474effd.jpg]

Got the installer to work, at last. I had the MSFS2020 version in my Addons Linker folder but not activated but somehow it was still showing up as a link in my community folder. I deleted the link then the MSFS2024 version loaded normally

I was looking for a place to ask about the potential for a 530/430 combo for the TBM (since I have one of each Real Sim Gear unit and not two 530s ) and I stumbled across this topic. Nick, have you seen this? I'm not someone who uses the stock ATC/flight planner and I'm happy to input routes manually, but given you've been investigating and working on a similar thing for the Starship I thought you might be interested.

yeah i think you're right. or maybe something with the free version of the pms750. i swapped it out for a gns530 and everything seems to be working as expected now.

I've been waiting for someone to ask this directly. While I was excited by this new prop shader, I find the implementation to be lacking, particularly in how harsh shadows can create stroboscopic effects in daylight. It also does not allow for as fine artistic control of how the propeller looks when it's spinning, such as the sharpness of the paint lines and the shine of leading edge dings and scratches. I look forward to embracing this technology when I think I can achieve the results I'm looking for. When that time comes, it will take days, or possibly a week to implement across my whole fleet, but hopefully it will be worth it for the results. I will probably offer both versions of the effect, toggleable on the tablet options page for those who still prefer the old effect.

I would love a GTN 750 + 650 like in the duke, but will happily get anything you can do. It looks great even with dual 750s!

I found it, it is the reading light switch on the door.

Status: Solved Solution: I deleted my settings in the cloud.

@glideslope said in Micro Switch: Used to toggle the active microphone to be used, when using the oxygen mask (has built-in microphone). Thanks.
