Update for the best GA in the works?

With the help of the Working Title team we have finally found a solution to the GNS compatibility issues that were holding up the release of our updates for the PA28s (Arrow III, Turbo Arrow III/IV and Warrior II). We're now finishing off some final bits of work on those with the aim of releasing them next week.
Thanks again for your patience with these updates.

Thank you for the Good news. I really miss flying the Warrior and there have been no substitute.

@Justflight Team:
Are you also planning on updating the turbo behavior? In the current version one still has to lean the engine when climbing and keeping the manifold pressure constant. That’s not correct behavior. Any plans on updating this?
-
A quick message to say that we'll be finishing off release candidate testing over the weekend, ahead of a release of the PA28 Arrow III, Turbo Arrow III/IV and Warrior II updates next week.
The updates will also be sent to the MS Marketplace team for processing, both for PC and Xbox.

Aiming for this week.
I've just posted the current change log here: https://community.justflight.com/topic/2257/update-change-logs-v0-5-5-released-edited-30-6-22
So no improvement on the turbo behavior?

@thtanner I appreciate the frustration and it's very much felt here too, but the work required for WT GNS and TDS GTNXi compatibility has been much more significant than expected, due to their introduction of custom autopilot logic.

After some further tweaking I'm happy to report that the PA28 updates are now being processed for release, with release currently planned for Monday. The final change log can be found here: https://community.justflight.com/topic/2257/update-change-logs-v0-5-5-released-edited-31-3-23

@martyn Thanks! Before I run the update, will the hours I've accumulated on the airplane survive the update? I've got about 37 I think and I'm enjoying watching these accrue in real time. If the update resets this, can I edit a file to manually restore the correct number of hours? If that's the case, could you please tell me where these are kept? Thanks!
EDIT: Found it. https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/flight-hour-meter-for-total-hours-improperly-resetting/389694/5 backed up all the Arrows state files just in case I need to restore the hours manually.
EDIT: Verified. State survived the updates!

I just checked with the Marketplace and it says I'm up to date, but in the Piper, I can see that my EFB is still the old one and thus the plane is not actually up to date. Is there a timeline for the bundle being updated on the Marketplace? I'm dying to try the new upgrades. Apologies if this is covered somewhere else. I looked.

@fauxflights Arrow updates were sent to them last night. I'd expect you'll see them updated at some point next week. No guarantees of course but something around that timeline.
-
@voice-of-reason Thank you so much for the update!
-
@voice-of-reason Are you guys able to ping someone on the Asobo side to see what the hold up is?
Just like @Fauxflights , I am eagerly awaiting the update, especially some fixes in regards to the GTN 750. However, it still hasn't went live on the marketplace almost 4 weeks later.
Thanks for the assistance.

@dukman821 We don't need to ping them an email, they communicate as and when required and when updates are sent across. Because our a/c use the WASM Gauge extra time has to be allowed for the testing process so last week was always going to be out of the question. This week looks more promising so hopefully by Thursday they'll be available. No guarantees of course but that's when everyone is aiming for currently. Thanks and hope that helps.
