Exciting news - update v0.5.0 is coming for the Turbo Arrows :-)
Is the list in the update post exhaustive or can we expect more?

Also disappointing that there is no mention of the autopilot glitches or state saving of COM1 and COM2 volumes for any of the PA-28s. I thought the flight models were still being worked on too. I seem to recall a post saying that the delay in updating was to address all outstanding issues, so hopefully the change logs are not exhaustive and will be added to (which has happened with previous changelogs).

@sender46 ref the flight models, I have been without internet (and landline) for several weeks now, which causes problems developing for an online sim. I have a large amount of information to work through with regard to each variant of the PA28 series but each individual change requires testing to ensure it has not had an adverse effect elsewhere, and until I get some form of useable internet back I am stuck.
I am having frequent discussions with both my internet supplier and the infrastructure company and I believe at this stage they are doing everything that can be done to effectively rebuild the communication network to my property but until that is done I cannot move forwards.
There are also a couple of far more important / urgent reasons for me to get decent communication back to my property, so please accept that I am doing my best and will get the flight model updates done as soon as is practical.

The change log is not exhaustive and will continue to be added to like with all previous updates. It just gives you an idea of what is coming.
Ah, I thought Pending Release meant it was working its way through the process.
Thanks for the updates and the progress, looking forward to seeing the updates live.

@superkaro2014 Any PILOT2ATC flight plan cannot load into the Arrow TurboIII making the G530 completely useless, even when loading the G530 Mod, still it does not load the flight plan.
Does the current update include a fixing for this issue?
Thanks -
@rgbalzaretti We haven't used PILOT2ATC so I'm not sure how it works but our PA28s use the default GNS units with no custom code/modifications to them, so we'd need more information on what prevents the flight plans from being used.

@rgbalzaretti Would love to be able to help, but I don't use Pilot2ATC.
All the GPS units in the Turbo Arrows work fine for me these days under 'normal' use,Are you sure it is an Arrow issue? Does your setup work in other airplanes?

@superkaro2014 Thank you for your reply.
Yes, P2A connects to my other MSFS2020 planes, like the TBM930. Incidentally, there are plenty of tutorials of P2A in YouTube. They use the TBM930 along with other planes.
I found a way to make it work:- create a FP in P2A.
- Save it (Export) to a location folder.
- Run the Sim and choose the ARROWIII using
gate or parking, not runway. - Hit the spacebar to bring the load option.
- type the name of the FP and add the
extension .PLN - The FP loads smoothly into the G530.
It works for me!

The size of the GTN guage needs increasing slightly in the panel config file.
If there is a gap and a light against dark border/join.... you get shimmering.
If your AA is low you will too.
But I have max AA and resolution and it's the first time I've seen it since getting MSFS.
It's fine with all configs EXCEPT the 750.
Here's hoping they can fix it.
