        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.

          Agreed. When I put it on autopilot.... perfectly balanced weight wise, I can literally see the yoke a few degrees to the right.

          We need an aileron trim.

          Tried standard keystrokes but it's no go.

          @gabe777 Just use a tad of rudder trim, it will compensate for this. It's what I do in the real plane.

            So no improvement on the turbo behavior?

                  @martyn I hope you understand we really enjoy the plane and are anxious to have the update. When it's ready obviously. Please give us an update on the situation. Thanks.

                    @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.

                          @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 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.

                                        @bert-pieke As a first workaround you can go to the content manager in MSFS and delete the Working Title patch for the GNS530.

                                        @Martyn Any news about the update? Your announcement is three weeks ago now.

                                        @hama Thanks for sharing the tip about removing the WT GNS530. This is one of the behaviors I am eagerly awaiting to be resolved by the update, along with the other great additions.

                                          @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.

                                          @voice-of-reason Thanks for the quick response!

                                          I have some additional questions regarding how marketplace updates work on their end, but at this point I think they are irrelevant and won't speed things up.

                                          I have learned from this experience that it's best to buy directly from you guys to receive updates much quicker, rather than rely on the marketplace pipeline to receive them.

                                          Thanks again.
