September 3, 20205 yr The behaviour of the PT-6 turboprop engine in MSFS isn't accurate (Torque rises with altitude while ITT remains stable, no Beta Range simulation, no propeller effects simulated) and that is a shame because there's a lot to like about the TBM 930 for example, which seems to be pretty popular amongst simmers. But it's not only about the standard planes, it's about the basics for modeling Addon Turboprop aircraft by third party developers. As MS has started a voting system over at their support-forums, it would help if a lot of you would participate. It's a bit of a hassle 'cause you have to log in, but we could be rewarded with a lot better simulation than before. The more votes, the better the chances. And I wouldn't mind if there's a TP-ZIBO out there.... Here's the link: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/turboprop-engine-logic-issues-up-voting/245144 The thread over at MS forums is about Turboprops, so go vote weather you want a PT-6, a TPE331 or PW150A...

September 4, 20205 yr Done. Prop effects are there on the King Air. I did an EFATO and was able to feather the dead donk visually and, crucially, aerodynamically. It all looked and felt pretty good. i haven't flown the TBM very much as I enjoy flying at night and those Garmins are too bright.
September 4, 20205 yr Look up g3000 brightness fix in the official forum. Someone has fixed it... really good now!

September 4, 20205 yr Commercial Member It would be nice to see them model the nuances of a turboprop... but their target audience/market could care less about "Torque Bloom" and things like that. B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord
September 4, 20205 yr @Tom_L Reading the yesterdays development update one can see that your undertaking was not in vain 👍 At least some of the issues have been acknowledged.

September 5, 20205 yr It's on their top issues list now! Good job guys. Who didn't upvote yet, do so! 👍 Happy with MSFS 🙂 home simming evolved
September 5, 20205 yr They haven't fixed the turboprops in 20 years, what makes you think they're gonna do it now? I don't consider this a major issue. It's a nice to have but not a must have. I'm hoping they fix the G3X issues first.

FSX MS didn't care what the community had to say. Another reason: Happy with MSFS 🙂 home simming evolved
September 25, 20205 yr Author All Turboprop enthusiasts look ahead for the next update: Whereas the issue "A320 swaying left and right" has made it into the Top-Bugs list on Sept. 24th. with 200 votes and was in the list on Sept 3rd as well, the issue "Turboprop engine logic issues" was in the Sept. 3rd. Top-Bugs list and isn't mentioned any more, despite having 329 votes as I'm writing this. Maybe the Turboprop issue is solved? I am more than curious for next week!

Just for fun I pulled up the TBM at McMurdo Station in Antarctica. Sitting there with the engines off, battery on, the ITT was about twice as low as the ambient temperature. OAT read something like -22, while ITT was below -50, which would seem to be a neat trick. Ryzen 7 7800X3D/B650 X AX | 5090 | 32gig | Win10 | Pimax Crystal Light

I appreciate your positive attitude, but usually when they fix things, they mark it as FIXED / Update 3. Maybe it slipped through. Taking longer so they removed it to present other stuff. Or they ignore it. Hope not. Happy with MSFS 🙂 home simming evolved
