  1. Hello,

    I am in the processing of reinstalling both SMP and RWC after the updates. I installed SMP 4.7.2 then proceeded to attempt to install RWC 1.1. I am given an error stating:

    "There has been an error. SkyMaxx Pro v3.1.1 or greater is required and you do not have this installed! ......."

    I have confirmed I have SMP 4.7.2 installed and it's working in X-Plane..

    Thoughts?

  2. Check the log. I've been having issues too and seeing errors like this in the TBM log:

    2018-12-08 00:06:07 TBM900[chart_prov_common.c:182]: Error downloading chart index https://aeronav.faa.gov/d-tpp/-1/xml_data/d-TPP_Metafile.xml: HTTP error 404

    something clearly is amiss.

  3. I accomplished this same task by utilizing flywithlua for those that don't want to use TARGET.

    Here's what I used: (snipped from my much larger lua script for the TBM)

    local mixture_axis = 25  -- Axis ID
    joystick_axis = dataref_table("sim/joystick/joystick_axis_values") -- Table of all Joystick AXIS values
    local axis = joystick_axis[25]
    
    function feather_control()
    	if(joystick_axis[mixture_axis] ~= axis) then
    		if (joystick_axis[mixture_axis] > axis and joystick_axis[mixture_axis] - axis > .25 or joystick_axis[mixture_axis] == 1) then
    			command_once("sim/engines/mixture_down")
    			axis = joystick_axis[mixture_axis]
    		elseif (joystick_axis[mixture_axis] < axis and axis - joystick_axis[25] > .25 or joystick_axis[mixture_axis] == 0) then
    			command_once("sim/engines/mixture_up")
    			axis = joystick_axis[mixture_axis]
    		end
    	end
    end
    
    do_every_frame("feather_control()")

    You can adjust the sensitivity for your taste by just changing the .25 in the function to something else.

    Enjoy.

  4. Thanks for the help. I suppose I should have tried reducing controller sensitivity prior to posting. (sorry about that!) But it does appear to help. I just didn't realize I had to pull the yaw sensitivity back so far for my pedals and the TBM. Anyhow, just tested it again and it does appear to be way better. Still a little rough on takeoff, but I think that's just practice.

    Thanks for the quick response and the help!

     

  5. So, I'm having extreme issues controlling the aircraft on takeoff/landing. The *lightest* touch on the pedals and it careens one way or another. When looking external to the aircraft and pushing in a pedal (even while stopped on the ramp) I'm noticing that the front wheel of the aircraft IS turning as if I have nosewheel steering.

    I searched the forums before posting and it was clear this aircraft doesn't have nosewheel steering, so I'm assuming the front wheel steering in xplane = bad. This make it almost uncontrollable on landing since nosewheel is constantly on. Even if I hit the nosewheel steering toggle in xplane it remains on no matter what I do.

    Thoughts? I'm on the latest version.
