Baron Professional

Hey thanks for the response I’m sorry I didn’t mean the animated character laps but I meant seat belts for the back seat

Taxi and takeoff were uneventful (but the takeoff roll was SHORT - 400 feet MAYBE). Engine startup was easy lol - mags on mixture rich.

What a wonderful note. Thank you so much. I hope moments like that can bring you joy in your virtual flying! Next time it happens, you can try using your real world procedure to burn off the deposits instead of pressing the "cheat" button. Have fun, and let me know if there's ever anything else I can do for you!

I have a good amount of time in 172's (N-S models), the Baron BE55A, the Debonairs, and F model Bonanzas. The 172s won't quit at the min ground idle as long as you don't lean it out too much for taxi. The Beechcraft birds will and even at full rich at ground idle when cold. Almost all post-start checklists have you set the power to at least 1000 RPM. The Bonanzas and especially the Baron are relatively slow to decelerate on approach, especially if you don't have the flaps or gear out. I would guess that the low idle stop for the Beech birds are set lower than a typical training aircraft like a 172. I also suspect that some schools might ask their mechanics to bring the low idle up just a hair, so that new PPL students won't decelerate too fast in the flair when they are learning how to land. Edit, as Nick said. 750 rpm is way too high for low idle.

You only talk about engine parameters. What about correct spin behavior, working seatbelts and correct icing visualization and effects? Tire pressure simulation? Just wanting to point out, even if the engine simulation was perfect, there would be the next "issue". You have to keep in mind MSFS, while it may be used as a serious Sim to some degree, remains a home-user software with relatively cheap addons. For the fidelity you are looking for, only a professional sim dedicated to one aircraft could provide that, which would cost thousands. Blacksquare and A2A provide the best piston and turboprop GA addons on the market, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. If both don't fulfill your needs, nothing on the MSFS platform will.

@lilycrose Same here, also on SU4 Beta. I really hope this can get resolved soon. I've been putting quite a few hours on the Bonanza and the Baron, it's a shame not to see the Hobbs meter go up...

Thanks for the reply, appreciate your efforts.

Many thanks! I really appreciate your efforts. I will test it later when I get home.

This should fix the problem that MS just won't do. After doing this I've never had a problem with long path names. https://www.autodesk.com/support/technical/article/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/The-Windows-10-default-path-length-limitation-MAX-PATH-is-256-characters.html

@MatzeH84 said in TIT gauge?: One this that is puzzling me, maybe you could clarify how it's coded: Let's say I lean ROP. Max EGT is found. Then in the first coloumn the deviation from the max EGT should be shown, correct? As you will be on the lean side, you would have to enrichen to get a zero reading, and from then on to let's say 50° ROP. Does the sign change from negative to positive at some point? Thanks for your other comments and the videos (you made it look way too easy to find those!), but really quickly on this one: I know the slight sign weirdness you're talking about. I believe that results from MSFS's strange mixture behavior (fuel flow increasing as you reduce the mixture when running too rich), but I should be able to eliminate it in my future aircraft with the new fuel flow behavior available in a late sim update for MSFS 2020. I've just implemented this for the first time in my Commander 114, and then if it works well there (looks good so far, and I don't really expect any issues), I will port this back to all my other aircraft.

Thanks for sharing these kinds of moments unsolicited. They really are the reason I work so hard on these aircraft. I've always been a fan of "simulations" of all types, even theatrical performances! I think it's remarkable when the manmade can simulate the emotions of mother nature and our own senses. Thanks again

I understand the massive amount of work you put in and yes it would be a smaller Duke but not massively different in size. Looking forward to your upcoming releases as well.

trying to figure out how too... everything exceeds file size limit.

I meant that the code from my first post doesn't work reliably outside of XML, not even with SPLIT or WAIT commands, as you suspected. Of course, I can use the new L:Vars via Axis and Ohs after I've edited the XML file - great!

dont worry too much, focus on important things my wish would be to make the planes more alive. with alive i mean: i was onboard a few GA planes and the noises i heard are far from what i hear in most MSFS planes, also the noises in Airliners are far form what you hear, the cracking of materials etc. a copilot could say something at certain situations, JustFlight 146 has such a copilot and makes the cockpit alive, heatblure also creating an atmosphere in the cockpit not adjusting cabine temp. or not adjusting the cabine altitude should result in consequenzes the plane "speaks" to the passengers depending on what you do. thats why i like the term a plane is alive - is a breathing machine. you might be terrible biased but from my POV there is nothing matching the starship. happy weekend Nick

Interesting! I suspect that wasn't the intended behavior, but I'm not surprised that it persists. Glad you solved it!
