I think it just means the baro now displays whatever you set as default for the sim itself in the main menus.

That was it, thank you.

I changed from Hybrid system to full imperial and the baro unit change. Would be neat to have the opportunity to change it through EFB rather than having to change the system by default.

Question for those who are flying with yoke... what are your sensitivity settings for X and Y axis? I previously had set a curve (-50% on + and - for both axis) because pretty much every Youtube video about those settings recommended this as being the most realistic but in Arrow this does not work very well.. it's way to slow and sluggish at those settings. 

I have the Alpha yoke with saitek Cessna pedals and like you I use the -50% sensitivity.

I have created a separate profile for the Arrow, using default settings. It seems the developers have managed to get the arrows physics to work fairly well with MSFS twitchy flight dynamics.

My windshield compass is stuck on pointing North! Don't remember having any plane in my simming history where I had to "convince" it to not be stuck in a position. What has my old foggy brain forgotten??

mine too, reinstalled but no joy.

 i've raised a support ticket.

I think this is fixed in the upcoming 0.3.0 patch.

Many posts on this forum on this issue which will be fixed in the next update, but there is a fix on one of these comments with a do it yourself fix. You are going to have to search for it. 

Patch 3 is scheduled later this week from what I hear:

•  
• Direction Indicator (DI) bezel now illuminated by panel lighting
• Whiskey compass animation fixed
• Sun visor animation now visible from exterior
• GNS 530 display now remains visible after GPS unit toggle on EFB is used
• Landing gear auto-extension logic fixes
• Airspeed indicator (ASI) accuracy issue fixed
• Yoke timer paused when yoke hidden - fixed
• ON/OFF control assignments now supported (e.g. lights, master/alternator)
• Autopilot OMNI/VOR hold disengaging after flying overhead VOR - fixed
• HSI no longer drifts
• Aircraft type now included in ATC calls
• inHG baro scale added to standby altimeter
• Co-pilot, chock, tie-down and towbar selections, COM/NAV/ADF frequencies and fuel load are now included in state saving
• Chock, tie-down and towbar selections can now be made via LVars for use by cockpit builders, VR users etc
• KMA 20 audio selector logic fixes
• Paint kit horizontal stabiliser texture fixes
• Yoke pitch animations added to exterior model
• Checklists added
• Further VR compatibility tweaks (including larger clickspots for small controls)

Wow, they even included the ability to select me. 😄

It gets better and better, I really love this aircraft 👍

I wait for every patch as another gift from JF, as the aircraft as is, even with the bugs, is a joy to fly.

This aircraft is the best!!!!

 

If anyone's been hesitant to make the change suggested to fix the whiskey compass, I've created a tiny little mod that does it for you.   I've uploaded it to flightsim.to;  it will be right here once it's approved.  If you want it and it's not been approved by the time you look let me know and I'll send you a copy.

Edit:  It's approved.

Does this mean a virtual you will sing us a song before every flight? 🙂

Jeez, are you really that much of a glutton for punishment?

Hi all,

 

Not sure if I am allowed to post a link, but this video on a Piper Arrow is really great for anybody who just got the arrow.

Start to finish with lots of info.

Man oh man, did anyone notice how over simulated the air currents were, they should tone that down (in the vid above)........... ha! I've noticed quite a few complaints about wind chop. Drives me nuts when those who haven't piloted or even rode passenger in a light plane complain about how it behaves in MSFS 2020. I can remember the first time I got to left-seat a piper warrior, I was surprised at the feel, it was like running across Lake Tenkiller in my dad's bassboat. After watching video, I've got to go take the JF piper up.
