Having flown the PL4 and PL21 since 2006 and noticing that sometimes the magenta V-speeds will drop inexplicably, we set V2 with the cyan speed bug. That way, there is a always at least V2 speed set on the airspeed display. If an engine fails at V1, V2 is the initial target climb out speed at the predicted takeoff pitch. The speed bug set at V2 gives you have visual target to shoot for as you adjust your pitch after takeoff. The initial target pitch attitude us just that, a "target" and not an absolute. And, it is only valid if the engine fails exactly 1 second prior to V1 speed (known as VEF, or engine failure speed). After takeoff if the engine doesn't quit, you can either call for "FLC, set 200 KIAS" or just call for FLC and pitch sync the speed but to your desired speed. When you press FLC, the speed bug syncs to the current speed. If you set it to 200 KIAS before takeoff, you need to be right at/close to 200 KIAS when you press FLC or it will reset to the current speed Several ways to skin this cat. There's no standard "SOP" way of doing it. Rich Boll

Correct Pils, that is what our pilots use

That changelog is larger than the MSFS source code ;-) Oliver

Hello community, we have created a SCP config file for the hot Hotstart TBM900! And we are happy to share it with you today. Please keep in mind that this Version 1 and the plane is still in ongoing development. This version was tested with Version 1.08 * Special thanks to totoritko for his help * mechia teh_spartan docpan The smartcopilot config garage Download : https://sky4crew.com/download/hotstart-tbm900-1-08-version-1-0/ ### IMPORTANT ### #--------- NOTES: --------- # # Please Review The presync Checklist. # Due to limitations of the G1000, it is important to follow this checklist. because of these limitations # # #------ Xsquwak USERS: -------- # # Because of the lack of observer mode # The transponder fuses (1&2) are not synced. # and the pilot with the Observer Call-sign # should Pull these fuses to turn off their. # transponder # ### Version 1 : Initial Version #### Install #### 1. Put the smartcopilot file into the main Folder of the Hotstart TBM 900 2. Rename your TBM900 Folder in Xplane 11/Output to TBM900_my (or what ever you like) to keep your airframes 3. Put the TBM900 folder from this file in Xplane 11/Output 3. Load Xplane 4. Load the Hotstart TBM900 5. Do the ckecklist in this file (for this plane it more essential then ever to have the same status at the beginning) 6. Do the Payload stuff before connect individual (because these stuff are not synct at the moment) 7. connect via smartcopilot Have fun Until we dont have the option for cold and dark, these steps are important to get and same status at the beginning of the sharing flight. Later when have the option this becomes more esay
