Piston & Turbine Dukes

I noticed an issue yesterday where my bound button would not engage the AP after takeoff. I used the mouse to click the button on the pedestal and it engaged and from that point on it would toggle with each press of the bound hardware. Will re-test later and see if it was a one-off. I did have the pitch trim on - I have than bound to a physical switch right in my line of sight so I don't forget

Cool, thank you! I have looked through the manual, but somehow didn't make the connection, that these could be it

Okay. I'll look out for all the temperatures. In terms of shock cooling there's an ongoing debate that's been broiling for years.... https://www.google.com/search?q=is+shock+cooling+a+myth&oq=is+shock+cooling&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCAgBEAAYFhgeMgYIABBFGDkyCAgBEAAYFhgeMggIAhAAGBYYHjINCAMQABiGAxiABBiKBTIKCAQQABiABBiiBDIKCAUQABiABBiiBDIKCAYQABiABBiiBDIKCAcQABiiBBiJBdIBCDU1MTdqMGo0qAIAsAIB&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I don't save the fuel selector positions, no. I can't speak to the Dukes specifically without consulting the owners that helped me with this, but in my flying experience, it's actually quite rare to encounter an aircraft that requires closing the valves after a flight. Many pilots I know of lighter aircraft also don't recommend actuating the valve more than necessary for flight, since any actuations reduce the lifespan of the valve, possibly cutting you off from your source of fuel.

The Turbine Duke supplement states... "A Left or Right Oil Door amber annunciator light illuminates when the oil door is closed. The oil door must be open for takeoff and landing." Well, at least it didn't take too long for me to confirm that one. Thanks for asking, guys.

Iam using default bindings for the bravo from msfs

@seipp said in TDS GTN750 won't come on: Only the 650 comes on. Tried removing the 750, readding it, switching Avionics options. Something I missed in some configuration? Gregg Replying to myself. Remember to check the fuses. First flight in this airplane and I had 3 blown breakers.

@Orlaam "We are overrun with them in this sim." In all the wrong airplanes though. I don't need it in the Cub or a light-sport but it sure would be nice doing 280 knots in IMC. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of analog gauges, especially if they are as meticulously simulated as they are in Black Square products, but having both options would be great.

@musefan hehe, could be a bit intimidating at first, but the basics are easy to get and the possibilities are endless compared to the native stuff. And there also an amazing community on the Discord server. The general benefits depending mostly on the hardware you are using. I would simply not not be able to use my cockpit without SPAD.neXt.

"L:var_correctedBatteryLoad, amps" working perfectly fine. Thank you... Now the EDM values are all there. I think I will add flaps and maybe cowl flaps positions an then I can publish that. Only the CHT/EGT variables are a bit off... as you can see in my other post.

Absolutely love your level of support. Many thanks!

Just startet on the runway to check the CHT values for another post. Everything looked fine. Engines running, ready to go.

The two switches just enable/disable each propeller's heater coils, but the timing electronics are always operating when there is power to one of the coils. Yes, sorry! I forgot to answer that part of your message. I seem to recall the way that I programmed that functionality, I would not be surprised if there is a momentary current spike before the timing controller activates.

Hahaha thanks, but that s probably too much. about the EDM that was already the case in previous aircraft such as the Bonanza or Baron about cowl flaps everything is in the manuals I know it s lot of information to ingest when jumping in a new plane but they are very instructive

Ok, I updated the sim to 15 beta and re-loaded the turbine, and yay brakes work again hope it's fixed. smiles

Excellent! Thanks for reporting back to save me some time! I'm glad to hear that everything is working now
