What’s next?

No really expecting an answer of course. I just hope that you guys liked working together and that we’ll see other planes from hot start. 

What you have created is not only nice looking and nice sounding, but it requires a lot of practice to be able to handle it properly. All the other planes are too easy to fly. It took me 2 weeks of flying to finally master to stay on the center line on take off and landing, as you would expect in the real life. You actually need to “learn” how to fly the TBM and that’s the best part of simulation, to learn something new.

I hope that all the good aircraft developer out there will follow you and make their planes on the realistic side as well.

So that’s just to say thank you.

ps: I like to pop up the PFD, resize it and move it to one side of my screen, but for some reason from one flight to another, it doesn’t remember my setting, so I have to resize it and move it again on each flight. Not a big deal of course.

Many thanks for your comment.
The TBM has proven more successful than we had expected, so that, coupled with how well we worked together, I'd say we'll be doing something again.  For now, toto is busy making a few more minor fixes to the code, while I make some more cosmetic changes.  Then we need to work on the next big update, which will have a few more extras, which will be followed by a long overdue vacation for me and my family.  Then we'll see where things take us.  One step at a time.

By far the best GA aircraft on XP! Many thanks to all the team, incredible work. 

Next....Version 2.0 of the SAAB 340A with the same features as the TBM and modern GPS and Radar!  Nothing less will do...well no harm in asking..ha ha!

I would love to see a study-level Q400, study-level King Air B200, or a study-level PC12, though STMA have said they already are working on a fairly detailed PC12 NG version for XP11.

i would like at least a big turbo prop like the Dash8-400/ ATR72/ ATR72-600  new glass cockpit)

[codylang]

Draco! Turbo prop bush plane.

Draco! Turbo prop bush plane. [emoji4]

Already being created by Torquesim.

I think the best demand will be for a high fidelity glass cockpit business jet. It doesn't exist yet. Cheers.

Any chances for helicopters?

Always a chance for anything.  But when it comes to heli's, I think it's, kind of, an unwritten thing where developers leave the heli's to Dreamfoil.  It's pretty much all he does, and he does it quite well.

I totally agree...not to mention X-Trident

[cmbaviator]

i just which the next aircraft will be a glass cockpit, that's all i'm asking for xD

Dear Santa Claus...

I wish ..  :D :D

A PC-12 NG with this level of detail and simulation depth.

But i´m realistic. The NG has a honeywell Primus APEX avionic suite what would be really much work in re-engineering/programming. So i don´t expect this from HotStart as they invested so much work in the addon functionality of the LR G1000 with Synthetic vision , Weather Radar, TAWS.

 

Maybe a Cessna Grand Caravan-EX as a "workhorse" ?

[MMcCl]

The new Bonanza G36 has a very similar avionics package.

[Danielus330]

I would like to see a cessna citation Mustang as a future project. It has the G1000 cockpit so in terms of systems you have part of the job made . Anyways, right now I am enjoying flying the TBM you guys did a really good job!

I wish XP becomes Dash 8-400 with TBM900/Saab 340 level of details

[Ricardo Pallavidino]

Since company's name is HotStart I assume you want to stick with turboprops, so what about this?

 

1500 SHP
