TBM850 in 2024
-
Hats off to Black Square for supporting this aircraft in MSFS 2024 for those of us that bought the original. If I’m honest I wasn’t expecting such an extensive list of improvements/ additions, I’m even going to say I wasn’t even sure it would make it over to ‘24. Fantastic Developer who will definitely have my support and purchases in the future, there are some big name developers that should really take note on this great customer service

@TonyDarkZero Thank you for the appreciation. It's been nice to hear today with the TBM update, because all the free updates can seem quite thankless, as I'm sure you can imagine. It was brought to my attention this morning that v1.3 of the TBM may not have actually been released on all platforms many months ago. Perhaps someone will enlighten me here, since I'm not actually sure. I thought I would post the 1.3 changelog (they are always at the end of the manuals), just for the sake of completeness. I know it can be satisfying to see that one little thing that bothered you fixed in an update.
v1.3 - Marketplace Update
New Features:
● Upgraded KNS-80 RNAV, and KR87 ADF push button interactions to conform to latest Black Square standards.
● Added optional PMS50 GTN 750 configuration for go-around nose-up angle, which will now match the 8° pitch-up commanded by the other autopilot systems.
● Added headphone cable visual model and clickspots in preparation for custom soundset at a later date.Bug Fixes:
● The tablet “Load with Covers & Chocks Deployed” option had no effect in v1.2.
● The tablet payload page’s maximum allowable weights have been corrected, and the manual updated with more specific loading information for the nose storage compartment. The center of gravity envelope display on the tablet payload page has also been corrected accordingly.
● It was possible in v1.2 for the primary Working Title GNS 530 to load incorrectly if selected at the beginning of a flight (via state saving) that would render the autopilot mode indications inoperable.
● KNS-81 output L:Var values for hardware interfaces only updated when there was a valid VOR signal being received.
● Several instances of information relevant to operation of the Black Square Turbine Duke were removed from the manual.
● Improved colors of EFS40 EHSI pointer needles for clarity.
● Rearranged After Starting Engine checklist so bleed air valve would be open before attempting to check deicing boot inflation.
● Ground effect slightly reduced for more assertive on-speed landings.
● Improved gas generator behavior at high power settings. -
When you mean v1.3 - Marketplace update this is for msfs2020? Because in 2024 I don't even see the Black Square aircrafts. I really hope you update the marketplace in 24 soon, I bought all my Black Square aircrafts in the marketplace in 2020 and really miss them in 24. Thank you for your amazing aircrafts!!

For folks that are getting no engine or switch sounds, I found a way to fix it. This seems to be a cached stream file for the 930 that's causing issues.
I went to the following path for Steam:
c:\users%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024\Packages\StreamedPackages
If you're using Microsoft Store/Xbox:
C:\Users%username%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\StreamedPackages
Search for TBM
Delete the three folders with tbm930 labeled.
Launch FS2024
Go to Marketplace, then Library
Enable Daher 930
That will redownload the streamed package and the sounds will appear again.
Hope this helps and happy flying!

@drhorriblephd Interesting! I've never consider such a thing, and I'm not aware of it affecting any of my other aircraft. I will keep this in mind for other users having trouble. Thank you for sharing!

Hi all, I'm trying to configure this free app for Android and iPad: TBM Perf. It is very usefull to plan a flight. But I'm not able to configure the correct Arm (in) for the empty weight (4.806 lbs with the door's pilot). On the original POH there is only the Arm (in) for the standard empty weight of 4.762 lbs (without the pilot's door). Can someone help me? Regards.
