I've really been enjoying the TBM 850 lately.  

A month or 2 ago, there was mention of an update coming to the 850, including an EFB (similar to the Duke) and other small enhancements, due right after FSExpo.  

Are these still coming or any new info?

 

 

This is from the JustFlight forum 7 days ago:

"I'm speaking on behalf of Nick at Black Square here so my information may not be 100% accurate but we're aware that Nick is testing the TBM 850 update currently. That's been ongoing over the weekend and into this week, so it should mean we're not too far away from seeing the desired update but I'm unable to give an exact date just now. It's not forgotten though and is currently a priority.

One thing to mention, the update will not include a Sounds update. Sorry if the expectation was that there would be one included in this next update but that's not going to be the case. Not being counted out going forward but no firm plans for that currently.

Thank you."

Thank you!

The update has now been released: https://support.justflight.com/support/solutions/articles/17000137147-tbm-850-msfs-changelog

Tablet added.  Nice!

Great aircraft! Didn't expect to get wing flex on this one. 🙂

Thanks for reminding me!

Hopefully the Dukes are not too far behind. Really missing the rain sounds on the canopy.

Perfect timmimg. I am about to go on a tour of New Zealand using the TBM

If you have a problem with the tablet not working and using the PMS GNT750 delete the wttpms folder for the tbm850 from the community folder, if you had that installed. It's not needed anymore and causes the table to fail.

fix typo

I was waiting for a sound update before purchasing this aircraft.  Although the TBM frequently appears in most everyone’s top GA aircraft list, I’ve avoided it for this reason.  Now that it received other updates to put systems on par with the Dukes (which I love and fly all the time), I decided to load up the default TBM to check out the sounds myself.  BTW I have a pretty good headset and thus sound is important to me.  Long story short, I found the default sounds to be more than acceptable, and am now the proud owner of a brand new TBM.  It looks (and yes, sounds) fantastic in VR.

My tablet doesn't work and I cannot find the folder you mentioned, I do have the 750

Where is the folder?

I restarted the sim without the PMS GTN 750 and the tablet works but when I added it again it's a no go

Anyone know how to fix this?

I definitely do not have the wttpms folder in my community folder

Thanks in advance

***** Update*****

The folder that needs to be deleted if anyone else is having the issue is

pms50-gtn750wtt-aircraft-bksq-tbm850

I was actually looking for a folder called wttpms LOL .... It has been a long week 🤣

All good now

I'm getting an error when installing.  "The following error occurred on the file c:\users......\dukeElectricalVisualizerTurbine.svg.  The system cannot find the path specified".  Anyone seen this?  I do not own the Duke if that matters.  I hit ignore on the error and it keeps going, but don't want to fly until I know.  Saw a similar post in their forums but no replies yet.  My sim just crashes trying to load a flight, so I uninstalled for now.  I did all the usual, redownload the installer, uninstall, reinstall.  Just curious if anyone ran into anything similar.
