Joers182 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 I can only repeat some of the posts here. I installed the new update. The click spots are awkward for the landing/taxi lights and some of the other switches. The AOA HUD is not visible on the windshield unless I pan the view around. I have to be looking towards the roof for it to show on the windscreen. And the power lever click spot has changed and it is no longer easy to change positions of the power lever.

We've had a lot of people ask for the clickspots on the switches to be placed at the tips of the switches. This is now implemented. I'm not really sure what you mean by the AoA hud. Could you please post a screenshot? Power lever has been changed to be VR compatible. For those without VR, the left side of the Power Lever moves the lever forward and backward. The right side moves it left to right. Cursors have been changed to help in this and will be in the next update, which will be out asap.

For now, left side moves the power lever forward and backward. Right side moves it left-right. The clickspots for some of the switches have been moved from the base of the switch to the tip of the switch. (SOLVED as per Gorans post) Hope so as the throttle is stuck at the position shown in the image. The scheme is weird as you can see the LOW-IDLE position and also the silouete on the left side. Initialy I was able to move the silouete up and down "grabing" the throttle with the mouse although it did not move phisicaly from the LOW-IDLE being stuck as shown in the image. In the end the scheme get freezed either. Since installing v1.1.2 I have only managed to move the throttlelever once and that was to the LOW-IDLE after a dozen of tries with the mouse. After that the lever didn't move any more. As this was during a startup in some way I managed to flood the combustion chamber, everything else is in perfect shape. Side menu is there and works well in windowed and full screen modes. Edited December 16, 2018 by Mateyhv

Clicking and dragging the right side moves it left to right)? Edited December 16, 2018 by Goran_M

Clicking ad dragging the right side moves it left to right)? Yes Goran, sorry was just trying what you said and yes it works as you pointed out, just have to grab the Lever on the left side or on the right, I was trying to grab it mostly in the middle. Thanks for the quick responde!
Joers182 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Thanks for explaining the power lever. I guess the new click spots will take some getting used to. As for the angle of attack gauge this is what I mean. Please see attached screenshots. Nothing displays on the gauge when looking straight ahead. only when I tilt the view up.
Goran_M Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 The AoA hud is an 11.26 compatibility issue. Currently, Everything in the TBM is compatible with both 11.26 and 11.3, EXCEPT the HUD. To get the HUD positioned properly, you will need to update to 11.3. It WILL be fixed for 11.26 and will be in the next update. 1
pgreenwo Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 The throttle lever is actually better when you get used to it. the click spots are difficult when the cockpit gets busy. I find I have to hover the curser over where the switch will be once pressed I.e not the point the switch end is in its current state (hard to explain that!) the biggest issue I have is the new heat blue particles. They are way over the top to me. I may try and paste the old ones and see if it works. other than that this amazing bird is getting better and better. Thanks guys for the continued work

ben_86 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Also no side menu and n working buttons for me. It's the same behavior as with the first release of that plane (no plugins working...) Log.txt
RobW05 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Hotstart, you could at least clean the windows before you deliver an aircraft to us... Jokes aside, the windows look as if they are covered with some residue. (just as if somebody smoked a pack of cigarettes inside) I did notice this also before, but after today´s update it seems much more prominent to me. In a night environment it is clearly visible, but also in daylight if you look close. 1

In a night environment it is clearly visible, but also in daylight if you look close. I see the same thing on the windows. At first i was exited because it looks like ice on the windshield in VR, so i thought the rain and ice was fixed, but it was just some strange window artifacts with this release.
RobW05 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Same as me, but then i saw the "ice" also covered the sun visors. Edited December 16, 2018 by RobW05
scampers Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 I have that weird "residue" on the windows and sunshield as well after updating. You can also see it on those small glass covers on a couple of the switches. Turns out it's the reflection setting doing that, if you turn off reflections in the TBM900 visual effects menu the residue goes away. Click regions seem more difficult now unless I position the camera with a perfect straight on view. I understand this was by request but I have to admit I prefer the old click regions. :( 2
dcapal Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Same problem here as some other people are experiencing - no side menu and no buttons, throttle or joystick working Log.txt
malenca Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Just to clarify...This update is for 11.26 or 11.30???
sd_flyer Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Great update! Thanks for you work! Everything is great except few things I'm also struggling with dragging the throttle from cut off to idle! can we have "arrow" cursor back like it was before? Also pop 2d panel with FMC keypad cursor still disappear when hover over knobs
jcallum Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Tested with 11.30r1. Only issue for me was that the clickspots on popout windows don't appear to work. This was in fullscreen mode. John.

Goran_M Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 For those without clickspots and no side menu, this is a known issue and is isolated to Mac users. A fix is in the works and will be made available shortly. Hopefully today.
sd_flyer Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 I'm doing a test flight right now. And it seems like autopilot struggle to keep GPS track. Now sure if it's RC1 problem or TBM. I also noticed that autopilot can't adjust aileron trim. I manually offset left rolling tendency during climb with right aileron trim before turning on the autopilot . Autopilot picked up TBM with aileron trim all way to the right and left it there. Is that right? P.S. I didn't check maintenance tab prior the flight, but my airframe is just few hours since new
Piper180 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 In ver 11.30, the mouse pointer dissapears if you try to use the buttons when you have the PFD, MFD or flight plan panel expanded
sd_flyer Posted December 16, 2018 Report Posted December 16, 2018 Here is a pic. Notice aileron trim vs autopilot
