    First up, I love both the Bonanza and looks like the turbine is becoming my favorite single-engine plane.
    prob is during the run-up test, I find the brakes won't hold the plane if you run the engine up to 2000rpm as per the checks for the governor test, and I'm not sure if that test is working correctly ????

      Glad to hear you're enjoying the aircraft! Sorry for the copy-paste, but here is my response from a couple days ago:

      I wish I had a better answer for you on that one. Brake efficacy is not something I have control over in MSFS. I suppose if any real pilot encountered the same problem, he/she would just do their best to ensure the correct operation of the aircraft's systems at whatever power setting they could maintain.

        @Black-Square Hi, but we can't do the runup, at 2000 RPM... Even we use parking brakes + brakes... The aircraft moves Forward. ....
        With TBM 850 No problem.... So? Thanks

          said in Brakes not holding when doing the runup in the turbine A36:

          Trust me, I would fix this one if I could. From my real world experience, I would say that MSFS's ground contact model significantly underestimates the static friction of tires. We often run our airplanes up to a "full static thrust" after maintenance, and expect the wheels to hold. This is sometimes not even possible with modestly powered aircraft in MSFS.

            A update on the brakes. If I slowly add power and hold my toe brakes on my pedals, I can get the rpm to 2000 for the tests, and it seems to hold, but I know if I'm too quick with the power, it will move forward..

              @emmaflic That's essentially what I found during testing, but I know that it can still be frustrating.
