Try it in real weather and see if you'd still put 'very' in front of stable. 😀 It can be a handful! Which is good! The World is divided into two groups.

That was the first thing I found compared to a lot of other aircraft. It certainly wanders a bit with a bit of wind / turbulence. Lifts a wing even with a bit of a side wind. A lot to like about this release. It has a lot of character, and the sounds are superb. Edited September 29, 2025Sep 29 by bobcat999 Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

September 29, 2025Sep 29 It must be kept in mind that it only cost £14! BUT. 😉 The tyres hit the tarmac with a helluva thump! However buttery your landing is. One more BUT and that's all. I would have expected the 'barn doors' to be felt rather more than they do. In my humble non-pilot opinion any other criticism would be a bit mean. The World is divided into two groups.

September 30, 2025Sep 30 Another BUT. Is there a way to save the GPS change from 530(default) to GTN650(preferred)? The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA

If you bring up the tablet, click on the "more apps" button, you will see a "C162" app. This allows you to select between the Asobo GNS430, the TDS GTN 650, or the PMS GTN 650. 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz i7-9700K RTX 3060 12GB GDDR6

Oops! 430 530 whatever.The point I was making was that having selected the TDS GTN650 it doesn't remain selected. It has to be changed with every session. I obviously didn't make myself clear.

I have the GTN's, but still use the GNS's, so I don't see this issue. Good to know about it. 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz i7-9700K RTX 3060 12GB GDDR6

In the case of the Carenado 172, this is a state bug where the GPS selection does not get saved and this bug must be fixed from Carenado's side.
October 3, 2025Oct 3 Thanks for answering. I never thought for a second it was a TDS problem. After all, it works everywhere else. I wondered if there was a little hidey hole where the 'stick' button was. 😕 Seems there ain't one.....Yet. (One hopes) 😉 The World is divided into two groups.

I know many other devs planes do. I seem to remember having to set the GTNs in the tablet every time on Carenado aircraft.
