PMS50 only?  No TDS support?

PMS can be included in XB versions now so if you have to pick one, it does make sense from that perspective.

Sure. Great for XB players.  Not so much for PC players who use TDS.

Nice. The better Twin Otter 😄

Sure but they should support both for those on PC like many other addon developers.

Devs only have so much time. I'm not going to say I wouldn't prefer the TDS as well but the PMS works well enough that I'm not going to complain, especially as I suspect TDS support will be modded in sooner or later either officially or by a third party.

On a positive note I'm pleasantly surprised by the GI275s - first impressions are significantly better than the G5s we've seen before.

Looking  a little closer the GI275 basically look to be reskinned G3Xs which is a really smart move and honestly would be great to see those as a default avionics option.

Agreed.  That said, other developers find the time or at least include a roadmap of when you can expect said support.  Well, no complaints here, just a no purchase, at least today.

I would have purchased this within seconds, but not without TDS support.

Honestly if the PMS is working you need just some smart guy to drop a mod... Its just a few changes... 😄

Lack of TDS support is definitely a shame. Would have been nice to at least have the option of using the GNS 430/530 instead, as on the piston version.

I do love the piston version, and the turboprop seems like it would have even more insane short-field capability, so I'm tempted...

Is there a rebate for previous BN2 owners?

Are there any videos yet? Would like to hear the engine sounds...
