For the price, and the potential this aircraft has, i most likely will get it. ( i have the Premium Deluxe version) 

For now, this is probably on par with P3D Carenado aircraft. I wonder if anybody has flown the ATR in P3D and how it compares.

I wish Majestic would create the Q400 for MSFS, one of the best sim aircraft ever. 

Majestic is working on it for MSFS. Could take them a while though.

I am not certain of the logical with the throttle calibration... not clear to me what is Ramp and Notch mean...

Can someone with the Hotas Warthog please post a screen of the ATR EFB's calibration page so I can compare my numbers?

Thanks

You are right.  Ramp and notch?  Never heard of this terminology.  I wonder if it is unique to the ATR.

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

I did have the Carenado ATR (no idea what made me do this, probably a 90% sale or something 😄 )  and this is 100x better. The Carenado ATR was a default aircraft (no custom systems, not even a FMC) with a an ATR skin, while this ATR here has all custom systems and a working FMC.
It's more in CRJ's league: Not study level, some annoying bugs that make your life hard on VATSIM, and a lot of small inaccuracies
that drive real CRJ/ATR pilots crazy but are not noticed by other type rated pilots. Personally I have the CRJ and this ATR and I like this ATR quite more, but this might come to personal preference.

Ramp and Notch are two detents on the throttle. Notch is used for takeoff and is the used max. setting for 99,9% of the flight time. Ramp is used for go-arounds. So make sure you calibrate in order to safely hit (and NOT overshoot) "notch" with your throttle every time.

I guess so. Judging from what I read, would be something like Airbus' FLX and CL thrust detents, but mixed in a single one?

The HSI behaviour tells different things. 

What in the HSI doing (or not doing) specifically?

I assumed you were referring to the Nav Display, where the FP route segments are shown. There is no curved “turn line” when the route changes directions. The lines connecting each waypoint are straight lines that meet at an angle where there is a course change. It is similar to how the nav display on a CRJ works, although that is a different avionics  system. (Rockwell-Collins on the CRJ vs. Thales on the ATR)

Quick question, the left Fuel SO handle always jumps to FTR, no matter what I do. When I move it forward or backwards, it always moves back to FTR.

I checked my controls, but I can't seem to find what button is mapped to this handle.

Does anyone know?

You need to use "toggle feather switch 1" & "2" to toggle between off and FTR. Then you can use the propeller axis (or whatever it is called) for the movement between FTR, auto and 100% (or just use the mouse, since you need auto basically always; you then however have to delete the propeller axis binding)
This was separated to different commands so users do not accidentally turn off the props mid-flight. Smart idea.

EDIT: In case I explained it badly, just watch the follwing sequence (from 22:08 onwards):

Thanks for this; so we can create a Flight plan in simbreif and export the flight plan in MSFS crj format and we can use that in the Asobo atr?  Is this the way?

Yes, but you'll have to input the arrival info after

 

Microsoft just dropped a tutorial series guided by a real ATR pilot
