Piston & Turbine Dukes

@Boomer81

I too find myself wondering this. I didn't get around to buying these Dukes in 2020 but really want them in 2024. From what I have been able to read it's possible to get them running in 2024 but only if you have it installed in 2020 as the installer doesn't give the 2024 option. However, there are some issues with it as it's not really properly compatible yet.

This makes me wonder how long it will be until I can buy these planes.

Thanks for the insight. Mostly why I waited months just because I knew things take time, but I mentioned it again because I figured maybe someone forgot. Again, thanks for the insight and thanks for the amazing work you do for us. Cheers!

So gave the B60 a cruise stability test and the model exhibited both positive static and positive dynamic stability. Test parameters... ISA, no winds, 4500' msl, half tanks, centered CG, 30" @ 2600rpm. Set a stable cruise after speed settled for the power setting. PIO by pushing the nose down 5 degrees and let go with a fingertip on the yoke just to maintain wings level. The pitch oscillations reduced in magnitude until about 5 minutes later the aircraft was in level flight with no oscillations.

I am having the same problem with the Duke Turbine. With the GTN750 installed, FS2020 on Xbox crashes all the time. If I install any of the other options, I have trouble free flying. I was foolish enough to go and purchase the TBM850 leading to the same CTD’s with GTN750 installed.

Thank you... I removed the GTNxi from the community-folder and it works :-)

Turn it off.

I have found the other post. It is titled Duke Problems and is mentioned by HarrisonD.
My Duke was flown as installed ie. PMS50(on Xbox I don’t seem to have a choice. It’s either PMS50 or TDS GTNxi). Interestingly, I have just selected TDS GTNxi then pressed Confirm.The Confirm button then said Done but both the Primary and Secondary displays are blank
Not sure about disabling content. Would have to look into that further.

thank you for the quick reply. I will spend time on it today and report.

Actually only the non-printer-friendly manuals seem to be linked, but I believe Nick creates alternative manuals without the dark background. How do I find those for both of the Dukes?

I use my PFC430 Hardware to control the KLN90B.

Problem solved, reinstalled it to a different folder (short path name) using the BROWSE option in the command line.
Example:
Open command line window (CMD)
Drag and Drop the installation exe file to the CMD window
Add a space + BROWSE in front of the exe filename and click ENTER

The installation process will allow you to choose the installation folder.

@Gilandred said in ATT autopilot mode unexpected results:

Not sure how it would be a binding conflict as I’m pressing the ATT button directly in the virtual cockpit.

I understand, but a lot of strange behavior occurs in the sim with conflicts you may be unaware of. Do you use any keyboard commands for anything? I use the TDS GTN750, as mentioned above being an issue, but I do not have ATT problems. I do not use dual GPS. When I click the necessary AP mode it works, but I have had the glideslope stop capturing.

Looking for an update on this as well. The missing rain sounds are a real immersion killer.

I am confused a little by this ... the Duke manual indicates that "No additional packages should be required from PMS to enable all WTT-Mode features in this aircraft". By 'all', doesn't mean everything? It seems if I want all the features, I have to buy the PMS Premium version. Is that correct, or am I doing something wrong causing me to be unable to access some features which are currently greyed out?

Yes, when in ATT mode, that coding works perfectly for pitch control.
