There is a new 1.1A installer available on the JustFlight website. Checking it now to see if it works any better.

Do you do battery start or  with GPU?

Battery. Sorry, I was on the GPU. Battery start = no go. Going back to the previous version.

1.1A seems to fix the GTN screen but props still aren’t working.

Yup with 1.1A I got the GTN working and a successful engine start on the battery. They even replied to my support ticket - well, to say that their working hours are mon-fri 0900-1700 UK time. But anyway, that was a quick fix. Now off for a test flight. 

What you mean props aren't working?

Like literally the engines are running and the propellers are not moving. Following the checklist does not help and following my own steps used successfully in version 1.0 does not work.

That's strange. Not really sure what's happening - mod conflict? Perhaps head over to the tread in the official forums to see if others are having the issue https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/steam-gauge-overhaul-king-air-350i/548884/235

Pressurization seems to be working too now. And like with the Caravan they got help with the flight dynamics from JayDee👌

- Improved aerodynamics and performance by JayDee.  The aircraft now have no acceleration on the ground when the throttle input is zero with standard bindings.  This corresponds to a minimum power lever setting in the ground idle range while taxiing.  Climb performance has been slightly reduced, reverse thrust power has been significantly reduced, new moments have been calculated to give the aircraft a slightly heavier feel, and adjustments made to the flap drag and lift coefficients to improve the accuracy of stalling speeds.

Seems like something's up with the right propeller though - something's missing? Engine's working fine though - amost at FL300. It looks so much like a stormtrooper, made me listen to Empire as background music :cool:

EDIT: The TDS suddenly became unresponsive. Restarting the .exe didn't help. I'm 100% analog now, going for Faro VOR and shooting an ILS approach to rwy 28. Then going back to the first version, good thing I didn't delete it.

They should have invested a bit more and provided more value in terms of the visual model - doors, cabin views, etc. 

installed 1a my engine start (battery or GPU) propeller wont turn. I don't have any other mod that would conflict with King Air. Yesterday everything worked today after patches stopped 😞

Reinstalled 1.0 and engines and props work normally. Something in 1.1 is messed up.

I'm completely fine without that. It's such a fine piece of work. Amazing with the engine sound mod. Did you get it? Can open the windows 😉

I sent another support ticket as the TDS stopped working mid-flight. And the wonky looking prop.

Another thing: using HDG mode with the AP - is the bank angle not supposed to be more than 15 degrees?

EDIT: I'm getting 30 degrees now. I think it's only 15 degrees under some circumstances though. Need to RTFM...

Can anyone verify if my livery adaptions are working with the new update?

Can you look at your engine.cfg on line minimum_on_ground_beta= 15

What value does it have? 15 like mine? Also do you use any hardware for throttles?

Thanks, and BTW I highly recommend Jim Goldman's (yes the lead dev of the old FSD International) king air prop disc textures....  the default as shown in your pic are awful.

Do you feel the Steam Gauge Overhaul package gives you $38.99 of improvement over the default King Air?

If so, where does the value come from?
