Pilates Porter (Asobo SU7)

Featured Replies

I am having two problems with this aircraft:

- starting on ramp, it is not cold and dark, battery’s are on, lights are on.

- I cannot get the Garmin 430 and 530 to switch on. Screens stay black.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Yes few switched are on even if start cold and dark - its a bug. I use pms Garmin modes and my GNS530/430 works fine

Cool, thanks, I will check if my pms mods are up to date. Might be that.

Where is the parking brake on this aircraft? The keyboard’s command no longer function.

It’s the red cable loop, to the right of the condition lever.

Update - updated the pms530 mod and that sorted out the black screens on the GNS430 and 530.

Tried the MSFS Porter but I can not get the engine to stop. I normally have a mixture axis mapped to the fuel control but that does not seem to work and I can not figure out where I need to click with the mouse to remove the gate at the bottom of the fuel control lever.

Just click on the gate.

If you can walk away it's a good landing

I have not tried it yet, how does it stand up against Milviz PC-6?

It doesn't really.  But it's $40 cheaper.

I flew around Tokyo Bay in the Asobo PC-6.  It's actually all right, even though the condition lever isn't working right, which kind of makes it a thrill to use.  I would fly it again, and try some different things (short field landings etc.).   They'll probably improve a few things here and there.  I wanted to compare them because I have some hours on the Milviz PC-6 too.

I'm not going to discriminate -- I'll be picking up the FSG PC-6 as well.  You can't have too many Porters.

Thanks, I tried that but it would select the throttle lever. Looks like they are overlapping somewhat, you really have to zoom in to get select it.

I think the asobo porter's exterior is more detailled,airscoops on cowling (just drawn with Milviz). the gear and rear wheel is more detailed,the pedals are better. And the panel is nice, but so is the Milviz panel.

I like the Milviz sound better and I feel it handles nicer
