Well first impressions - this is a seriously beautiful plane. I must have been under a rock to miss this. With True Glass/Light and full F1 GTN integration very happy. I'll see how she flies shortly but setting up my cameras and readng the manual right now.

It will fly good.  Milviz flight models are excellent.  Better then A2A IMO

In the opinion of many, the 310R Redux is *the* best light twin out there.  You won't be disappointed, plus the support is very good.  As for a twin turboprop, Carenado's twin Cheyenne II, with the mods discussed here in the Carenado forum, is one of Carenado's best, imo.  Only a couple of minor irritations, but they can be overlooked.  The mods may be difficult to obtain, but a couple of folks have them, if you ask for help.

Yep. Taxis nicely. Handles very well. Very happy with her. Trying to figure out the Bendix/King. Does not want to engage alt/arm for some reason.Will have to read the manual on this because I've never had problems with this in other planes.

The manual is pretty good at explaining it.  If you've worked with the Bendix/King in the A2A C182, it works exactly the same.

Looks like once you set the ALT it is already auto-armed. Don't have to push that button. My problem is figuring out the vertical trim couldn't seem to engage and I had to manually trim it.

What did I miss. did Textron put another engine on a 182 while I was gone? A turbine engine ya say? 😉

Going a little from memory here:  Set your altitude with the knob(s) on the right hand side.  Then click the ARM button just above that knob.  Then click on the UP button to set your VS, vertical speed.  When you're already at your set altitude and want to ascend or descend, set your new altitude, then press the ALT button, then the UP or DN buttons, depending on if you're ascending or descending.
