November 23, 20178 yr Hi Folks, Sounds promising - we have any more true show stoppers here ? Granted - we’re never going to see an externally modeled turboprop simulation from Carenado... Quote Carenado Support, Nov 23, 10:59 -03:Greetings, Thanks for your feedback, those issues are being corrected and will be fixed in the next package for the aircraft. Regards Carenado. Scott Brunner, Nov 22, 14:35 -03: Hi Folks, Just following up on (2) Bug Reports: 1) The "Trim Indicator" spins backwards incorrectly... 2) There is no way in P3D to operate the engine "Ignition Switches" independently. This is incorrect as well... These are most definitely bugs that need to be fixed - has any progress been made ? Thanks. Scott Regards, Scott

Dave Womack's review of the III was very good. Gregg Hi Gregg, Yeah - been tempted by the III - but the II just has the look of the quintessential twin turboprop to me - figured the III would be just more of the same (similar cockpit)... In addition - Whamil77 ported the old DA FDE to the Carenado model - so you can fly an old friend if so desired... I just need to take the time to paint it - as N118HB - has the best looking paint job I’ve ever seen on a Cheyenne... Must have... LOL...

I do fly the Turbine Duke a lot. Wondering if the II is that much different. Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane.

November 23, 20178 yr Author Hi Gregg, Missed out on the Turbine Duke but I believe it has a more accurate turboprop model than you’ll find on te Carenado... You probably already have the best of the best... Regards, Scott

On the more serious side: I fully agree with you, I consider the Cheyenne II as the best looking GA twin turbo prop out there. I'm waiting for a (december?) sale before I buy it.

November 24, 20178 yr Author Hi... LOL - you're most welcome... I was flying the Cheyenne last weekend around sunset and I was once again amazed at the graphics quality of the VC and the way the light was playing off the details - pretty incredible - even compared to their older stuff... For visuals - Carenado is unsurpassed... Yep - concur - at this point I wouldn't buy anything until you see how their holiday sales shake out... Good luck with it and ping Whamil77 if you get it - for an alternative FDE... Regards, Scott
November 16, 20187 yr Author Hi Folks, One year later - I tried again... Not so encouraged now... Regards, Scott Quote Ticket #38778: PA31T Cheyenne ? Your request (#38778) has been deemed solved. To reopen, reply to this email or follow the link below:http://carenado.zendesk.com/hc/requests/38778 Carenado Support, Nov 14, 02:01 -03: Greetings, Thanks for writing, those issues are annotated to fix for the next package for the aircraft, sadly we don't have any specific timeline for it yet. Regards Carenado. Scott Brunner, Nov 13, 11:43 -03: Hi Folks, The PA31T was one of your better offerings - especially with the community supplied mods - I've submitted this request before - is there anyway you can fix the trim wheel and igniters - the trim wheel error seems to be a chronic mistake you make over and over again in your models - it spins the wrong way... The left and right engine igniters are joined together - we can't operate one without the other - this prevents us from performing any kind of realistic engine start... Would you please consider fixing these two issues ? Thanks... Regards, Scott
November 16, 20187 yr AFAIK, if you stay within the original SDK possibilities, there's no way to have the igniters to operate independently in FSX and P3D at the same time, at least that's what a dev told me. That said I don't see a serious lack in realism if both igniters are turned on/off at the same time, since on many multi engine airplanes there's only a single igniter switch for all engines.

Thanks for the insights - lol - but the trim wheel I know they can fix... Regards, Scott

November 26, 20187 yr Scott, Have you posted your repaint of N118HB somewhere? That's a gorgeous looking aircraft. Stew Stew "Different dog, different fleas"

Stew Hi Stew, RE: N118HB https://www.jetphotos.com/registration/N118HB LOL - I did for the Digital Aviation model - while I've looked at the paint textures on the Carenado model several times - LOL - I chose to keep my sanity instead... I may get the urge again someday - but it won't be easy... It's not impossible but it's a very tedious process as NOTHING is lined up on Carenado texture sheets... Just hours and hours of pixel by pixel moves... I still think it's the best looking paint I've ever seen on a Cheyenne and I've looked at many... Regards, Scott
