    Just a small one.. For me with double GTNxi setup the transponder is always turned to ALT when powering the avionics at the first flight of the day.
    Maybe this is an easy fix to make it startup in standby..?

    Btw: Of course I couldn't resist and bought the Baron full price. 😂

      I hope you enjoy the Baron 🙂 I see this request a lot, which is amusing, since I used to be inundated with requests to have ALT as the default mode. In ever real aircraft I've ever flown, the transponder is set to default to ALT mode at every startup. In the United States, at least, the FAA issued a recommendation to pilots to operate their transponders in altitude reporting mode any time the aircraft is running, including all ground operations. If you still really wish to make this change, you can locate TransponderState=4 in each of the *.FLT files in the aircraft's directory, and set it to 0.

        Got it, thank you! I'm flying on IVAO, and an active transponder on the ground is not desired as it will clutter the ground controllers picture with several aircraft nearby.

          If you want the unit turned on but in STBY, you should set it to 1.
