Greetings everyone,

I'm sure not the most experienced out there in terms of sims or airplanes, but I just wanted to say this thing flies fantastic!

One suggestion is to make a note in the accompanying instructions to make sure FS2020 is set to "Modern" and not "Legacy". I discovered that in Legacy mode not only are the standard controls affected, but the elevator trim operates too slowly and the aircraft constantly "hunts" for target altitude on autopilot. Because of this it also cannot follow a glide slope properly.

Once I figured that out I became convinced this is the best flight model in the game. Thank you!

Thanks for the comments (assuming you mean the turbo mod). The advice to choose the modern flight model is right there on the recommended settings section in the guide!

I must have missed it. Yes, I was talking about the turbo.

Thanks!

Anyone know if this works fine with the latest patch?

Seems to be just fine.

Hey Gang, as many of us are enjoying the excellent flying G36 Bonanza Turbo in the rare air of the lower Flight Levels at unprecedented speeds and comfort for a small GA aircraft.  Most of us have never owned a new Bonanza, especially one with a turbonormalizing system. The specific documentation that comes in the box is absolutely outstanding.  We have speeds and performance tables with fuel flows right up to FL250.

What you might not know, is there is a custom livery pack that is being finalized where you can pick and choose exactly how you would like your personal hangar to look, even including a unique wood panel.

Regards,
Ray

 

What @raymar is too modest to tell you, is that we all are going to benefit from his experience and expertise. He has provided valuable documentation including tables, procedures AND ANECDOTAL ADVICE that will help @robert young make his superlative creation even better.

What I am happiest about, is that this sort of synchronistic, communally cooperative and completely altruistic spirit has been brought to the forefront with this simulator and the mods it has required/fostered.

What a GREAT TIME FOR FLIGHT SIMULATION!

Man.....I'm already mad at @raymar, and now he's trying to pull me away from my Mooney and be seduced by the Bonanza.  Gaaa....if we could only get one with steam gauges!

@robert young, fantastic work!  You guys are making it impossible to pick up a brush anymore..all I want to do is fly!

Don't forget the G1000 mod. It's fantastic!

Hi, friends.  I've done a little bit of work so that we can have our cake and eat it too, with both great G36 mods available -- TheFrett's and this one.  This is a little intricate, but I've tried to make it doable in as few steps as possible.  (It would be a lot easier if we could redistribute the stock planes, but that would clearly be a nono.)

Since this mod is more of a full overhaul than a rework like TheFrett's, I decided for this to make a new copy of the stock G36 as a completely new plane and lay this mod on top of it.

Have now both mods installed according to your instructions. 
Works great so far. The only thing I can't get started is that the g1000 mod also works in the turbo version. 
Or it works and is also loaded, but I don't have the extra engine pages like lean etc. 
So it is a bit difficult to find the exact mixture and so on. 
In the other G36 Mod the extra pages work without problems, only in the turbo version unfortunately Not.

Guess that will have to do with the fact that the g1000 mod refers to the original Asobo_G36 folder 
and you have a Bonanza-Turbo-V1 folder for the mod through the copy. 
So the g1000 mod doesn't know that it should also display the extra engine pages in the G36Turbo version.

Onimanius, I fought that battle for a couple of days and finally threw up the white flag and gave up. I wanted to see the new engine management features the Working Title team is promoting in their G1000 v3.1.  I had the TheFrett mod and the G36 Turbo installed and working but the G1000 v3.1 wouldn't play well with them.  In the end I cleaned house, started from scratch and have only the G36 Turbo and the G1000 v3.1 plus some very recent G36 liveries that may not be in the public realm just yet.  I would love to have all of the mods working together, but, I had rather be flying than troubleshooting.

The G36 Turbo has a new V2 on short final and we could see that arrival before the weekend, maybe sooner, if all goes well.

Good luck with your mod merging.  I do wish we could get those guys together and have one super mod for the G36, but, I have been told that is not necessarily a good thing.  I guess some things are just not meant to be, like organic donuts.

Regards,

Ray

First post here (on Avsim):

I'm discussing with Robert how we can potentially work together / combine our mods. We are taking this slow for various reasons, so please be patient.

The goal (at least for me) would be to serve the community with two excellent and compatible G36 mods. The feel and flight dynamics of Roberts mod are superior to our G36 improvement project in my opinion (although I'm curious to hear what the two commercial G36 pilots who are involved in the project have to say about this). We have a focus on realistic systems, think about the electrical system's bus tie and its influence on voltage / load distribution and indications, with more (inop) systems and switches to be added. And obviously our mod is for the non-turbo G36. In that respect our mods mostly compliment each other with minimal overlap.

I have an issue with the Turbo G36 and the Working Title G1000 v3.1.  I first reported it two days ago in another topic. It appeared I had solved the issue by removing all G36 related mods, and then adding them back in one at a time.  The result made it appear that liveries from another party were the culprit.  Yesterday I flew the Bonanza for a two hour excursion and everything was fine.  But now today the issue is back and I cannot determine how to eliminate it.

Oil Pressure is zero right from startup.  Just a still image here, but the oil pressure blinks and stays at zero.  I have started a flight both from the runway (running) and from parking (cold and dark). 

I have checked other G1000 equipped aircraft models and the issue is not present in those.  May be of note is that the Engine page key works for me in the Turbo G36, but not in the other G1000 aircraft such as the 172.

I have the most recent WT mods for the G1000 and G3000, the Bonanza-Turbo-V1 mod, and the pms50-gns530 mods installed.  No others besides a handful of small scenery folders.  With the Working Title mods I am beset with the long filename/pathname issue when installing, whether copying the folder set or whether unzipping it in place.  So I unzip it elsewhere, shorten the primary folder's name to just W.  Then once positioned in Community I rename the primary folder back to its original name.  But to reiterate, I appeared to have eliminated the issue yesterday, at least for a nice flight, and now it is back.  The last folder changes I made were the day before yesterday.

Any ideas?

I had the zero oil pressure at startup, but, tried the auto start and all seems to straighten out.  wierd indeed.

It might still be those long folder paths. How about leaving the renamed files for the mods. It does not affect the mods in Community, just don’t rename the files in the mod folder. Just name it WT-G1 for example. See if that helps.

Welcome to the Avsim Forums.  Thank you for this very enlightening discussion.  It is good that you and Robert are talking and discussing compatibility of your mods.  It sounds like we may end up with a two G36 models, a low altitude one and a high altitude one, hopefully with many shared components.  It sounds like this could become a reality.  Thank your for sharing your work.

Regards,

Ray
