Do you have the engine sound bug? Listen to the engine (more noticeable in exterior view), the sound switches between two engine sounds after a couple minutes.

I have that with the Seminole too. I take off and it sounds one way then as soon I'm airborne and ATC chips in the engine tone changes completely. I reported that but ....

Yes, several of their planes have this bug... The C170B too.

Please all report, maybe we can get them moving.

I think the Mooney engine quits if you pull the idle back so far the voltages go negative.....

(agree is a bug, and wonder if this is some part of it)

If the idle goes really low, the voltage will drop. Probably a result of the idle being way too low. What really gets me is they have been working on this patch for the Mooney for over 2    ##$*  months. I take it for one flight and discover that it has a serious bug. I guess they are following Adobos lead, and not testing anything before releasing it to the public.

This is pretty normal for Carenado. I thought they might change when they came out with the first add-on plane for MSFS 2020 but it looks like they are up to their old practices, I had hope. Money grab for them, they will only update when they absolutely have to and they will do as little as the can to keep a plane flying. I bought 4 of their planes for MSFS 2020 and I don't ever fly them, too bad, the Carenado Mooney was a really nice plane when it first came out.

ROG MAXIMUS X HERO, Intel Core i7 8700K, 32 GB's 3200 RAM, Gigabyte RTX3080,

Does make you wonder who tested it.  Thought I'd done something wrong first flight, had it figured out by 2nd.  Pretty hard to miss.

Well I have to admit, other than the idle problem which if the files weren't encrypted. would probably be fixable in about 2 minutes, the Mooney is flying great. Everything is working properly.

mmh, which file would have to be edited then ? Just had a look at my One Store folder, found it and it seems that I can open and read XML and CFG files (Mooney). Didn't alter anything yet but it's perhaps worth a try.

The files that matter are hidden (actually compressed into fsarchive encrypted files).

Carenado claims that Microsoft does this when placing the files in the Marketplace.

I always wonder how FBW, RY etc. find the files they need, despite encryption...is this just another MSFSMP specific boondoggle?

The default Asobo planes do not have this, only the payware Marketplace aircraft.

To clarify, the default airplanes that are shared amongst all the MSFS editions aren't encrypted, but any of the "premium" ones (the 787, Citation Longitude, etc..) are, so 3rd party fixes for those require a lot more work than they should.

In that case, wouldn’t these files also be accessible with comparable work, or does MSFSMP creat even bigger issues than the files you mention?

Carl Avari-Cooper

I could be wrong about some of the specifics, but my understanding is that modifying encrypted aircraft requires creating the requisite .cfg files completely from scratch (either by copying/tweaking them from a similar airplane, or starting from scratch), since that information can't be extracted from the .fsarchive files.

Basically, all of those modifications are working by just temporarily overwriting the default MS files with something else, and the creators are working largely blind, since they're not able to see what the exact values in the .cfg files are, so it's a lot more trial and error than simply being able to see already in the fileswhen you go and tweak something.
