I’ve just “discovered” this aircraft after having it sat around in my hanger for over a year unloved and unflown.
What a peach! Especially with the G1000NXi mod. Not particularly sexy looking, a bit stumpy really, but its range and performance outweighs the negatives. Just taken a 2 hour flight over central Russia. I think I’ve just found my next circumnavigation boat.
The G58 is my fav aircraft in the game. In VR it’s amazing, the textures and bumps on the wings are so real. You get the dual engine management fun , performance and clear view in front of you (no propeller). Personally, I like the way it looks too And with the new G1000NXI (0.5.0), just wow, it’s phenomenal.
Agreed, the Baron is a great airplane. 300hp / side, 1,400nm range, big aft doors, nose baggage, on-board weather radar, de-ice boots, etc… If only I had a spare $1.3 Mil.
Prop sync was broken in SU5, I believe. Or at least one of the recent updates. The switch in the cockpit worked prior to that.
Prop sync actually still works if you’re using an external device that maps to a SimConnect event. It’s just the virtual cockpit switch that’s now INOP, even though the functionality is still there. I don’t expect to see them fix that any time soon.
Have you switched off the auto-lean option? The G1000 mod that was available before the NXi hit the marketplace had the gauges you needed to accurately lean the engines. I guess they will appear eventually on the NXi
