11.30b1

Have any of you guys tried TBM 900 with freshly released new beta 11.30? Any issues?

Its' seems to be flying ok with an added fps bonus. As to whether it's flying to the numbers, that's for someone much more experienced than me to look at.

FPS bonuses, didn't expect that

I am probably going to wait a week or so until I upgrade. I feel like my Sim and config is perfect right now and I don't want to mess it up!

Had a couple of flights without any issues.

Seems the vnav is inop in .30b2.  Otherwise seems OK...

Xplane 11.30b1 seemed to few although no issues. b2 just broke the aircraft. I have reverted back to 11.26 until both xplane and the TBM sync.

Can you elaborate on that? I only had a chance to load TBM after installing B2 and see if any menu items still work (which they did). I haven't  flown  it yet after new update

The side menus although available were in the case of the maintanence box opened so the top half was not available . The click areas on the side menus were out of place. Im talking of my experience on my iMac. I did not have those problems in b1 or 11.26.

I see. I'm using windows, but I had exactly the same problem when I used scaling (in XP settings) anything other than 100%

Thanks. I am not quite sure how I deal with scaling on the iMac. I did find the setting  on the iMac, which was at default. I am so pleased with the TBM 900 I think I will wait until Xplane and Hotstart catch up with each other.

Looking to buy a Windows PC just for Xplane.

Sorry folks.  The "unable vnav" message from me was due entirely to pilot error.  I typically make the same mistake 5 or 6 times just to make sure...LOL!  TBM works in b2 but I don't think the engine and performance is accurate (but we knew that, didn't we)...

[kjhkent]

The problem with this aircraft ( its a good problem) is that the systems are very deep. So until you know the TBM inside out you do not know if its a software issue or user error. Great aircraft and Hotstart have created a bit of a monster.
