Piston & Turbine Dukes

Hello there. No axis assignments other than my Bravo. Second flight showed both engines lose slight amount of power in level flight at 20.000ft. No problem really... just have to tweak the throttles. Awesome planes.

Agreed, especially on the headset one, kind of like the A2A Comanche. The engines sound great but they are very loud. Would also be nice to see true airframe persistence, like switches how you last left them on the most recent flight.

I'm having a similar problem. Will also submit a ticket

@Black-Square So the turbine Duke's speeds (below) are much higher, I understand they are True Airspeeds, not indicated airspeed. But obviously I did not consider that. Ok, this is great education. The checklist values clearly would be variable as well based on density altitude I suppose. Aircraft Performance (Turbine Duke) Maximum Cruising Speed 320 ktas Normal Cruising Speed 290 ktas Economy Cruising Speed 225 ktas Appreciate the feedback! Kirk

@Black-Square Thank you very much for a detailed explanation! And an extremely detailed aircraft!

I am not sure if it's a choice ore a small bug, because the manual states 0-100 as range and this would work with the default MSFS mixture as well.

@Black-Square I had a similar issue, but the GTN750XI was the one not clickable. I followed your advice and after restarting the TDS app it's now working fine. Thank you!

@Nicotine70 thank you so much! I saw that this morning and came to delete my question because I felt stupid, but maybe someone else will need to know. Thank you again!

Thank you guys! That’s amazing. I figured it was something like that like cooling fans, but didn’t think about the gyros. Makes sense. Spinning that fast on a low friction point

You can fail the Turbos via the tablet and you have pretty much what you looking for. Did this on one engine and it behaved like expected.

I'm glad that's what you were looking for! The first three are just green, and the last is just red.

Yes, attitude mode is the only manual vertical autopilot mode in the aircraft. Very strange. There is nothing that should interfere with the operation of normal trim, autopilot or not. Unfortunately, all I can say right now is to let me know if it happens to you again, and we can try to troubleshoot together. Since autopilot functionality is often tied to the custom autopilots in the GPS addons, pay attention to which GPS unit you are using if it happens again, or see if it happens with all GPS units.

Great question. Yes, that's what the "unrestricted beta" setting on the options page of the tablet is for. The option is disabled by default, meaning that beta will never be commanded while the aircraft is in flight. Hope that helps!

So I did a test with the PMSGTN and the GTN650. Everything seems to be working other than the plane will not follow the GPS track. Is this related to the patch still not being correctly installed?

No problems here. Tried Acrobat, Chrome & Safari on iPad and Acrobat & Chrome on Windows 11.

Thanks for letting us know! Indeed, that is why I vastly prefer this forum to the MSFS official forums or Discord. Those might be great for community, but they are not excellent for finding someone else's solution to your problem.

And also forgot to say, that the airplane is just amanazing. I was expecting a lot after all the preview videos, but was still pleasantly surprised. Also, on the current group flight, hearing only praise for the Duke from everyone

@Black-Square Thank you for the quick reply. I see, at least it’s good to know that I hadn’t just missed some hidden nav-switch I’ll continue using the GTN650 instead, hopefully that’ll work fine. I much prefer the smaller gps-units over the larger ones, so I’m glad that it’s possible to use them separately. Been loving the plane so far, can’t wait to spend more hours flying
