TMV45 Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 Hi, When I use the new 'click & hold' function for speed dialing the DH, I get a negative value. I think it''s because of this: - with single clicks, the value works 'clockwise' - if the icon shows right turns, the DH goes up, if the icon showa left turns (anti-clockwise), the DH goes down till '0'. - with the click+hold, it does nothing if the icon show anti-clockwise (left), and decreases the DH if the icon shows clockwise turns. The decreasing goes even below the '0' and becomes negative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Out of curiosity, I can’t understand how this would not have been picked-up during LES testing after implementing the change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goran_M Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 The same can be said about any issue that crops up. The more complex the add on, the more bugs slip through the testing cracks. The TBM had an update made every day for a week because of bugs that were found by the first batch of customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get that. But this is such a simple change that only involved turning a knob - how could a tester miss that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goran_M Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 We're still human beings, who sometimes miss things. Yes, it's a simple thing, but even simple things get missed. I sometimes forget what day it is. Not much is simpler than remembering the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All aircraft developers know that. This bug has been fixed and will be in the next update. Time to move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally understand what you are saying, and that is why software developers establish test cases and test as they make changes - to minimise the likelihood of bugs falling through the cracks. Yes, they won’t catch them all, but we seem to have introduced a lot with the v1.6.x changes. Guys, I love this aircraft and the work you’ve done, but we’ve gone from a flyable v1.5.1 to something that has too many bugs for a successful release. Very frustrating. I’m not ‘stirring the pot’, but as someone who has developed and released software, I can’t understand this. Cheers and all the best in getting us a working aircraft.

Goran_M Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 We know there are issues. But "too many bugs for a successful release."?? I've seen much, much worse. Your opinion is a little harsh, in my own, honest opinion. Rest assured, we're working on fixing the known issues. All we ask is that people report them as they come across them. We don't really need to know how bad some people think it is. Those opinions are purely subjective, and if I was to be completely blunt and honest, and with all due respect, they do nothing to help us fix the issues that are present.

Mate, I appreciate all the work that goes into these add-ons - I have also been the target of customers who find bugs in my software. One thing I do understand is the effort and cost of testing. I know my comments don't help fix the bugs, but I cannot fathom why the testing doesn't identify them if it is so rigorous. Thanks and all the best in resolving our bugs - I really, really love flying this aircraft and want to complete successive, successful flights again.
