My mistake… please disregard
the curve for moving the yoke seems totally off on this plane, when i am at almost 45° with my honeycomb yoke, it barely is at 20°, and then it suddenly goes straight 90° And its definitely a Problem with the plane. Just try it by moving the yoke with your keyboard, A, D first it only does small increments and the last go really fast
I fly the Baron more than all the aircraft in the sim, issues noted:
- Fuel gauges show 100% full regardless of amount loaded via EFB, and shows no drop in level from 100% full regardless of length of flight.
- Once, cowl flaps are open, even if closed - remain in the open position on the external model.
- The G1000 references the old Asobo G1000 and not the new Working Title version.
- Body panel wear on the exterior model is a nice detail, but over done.

You must be flying the 2020 version in 2024, because the 2024 version has the WT Garmin avionics.
It is possible it’s using the 2020 working title version instead of the 2024 version. But I would have to double check.
No, I meant the 2020 version of the aircraft vs. the 2024 version of the aircraft.
Since 2020 Deluxe and Premium Deluxe aircraft are available to people who bought the Standard Edition of 2024, the 2020-specific aircraft can be loaded instead of or in lieu of the 2024-specific versions.
I know, but it’s possible that 2024 aircraft is using 2020 avionics. I just don’t know if that is the case with the 2024 Baron.
But yes it’s possible they are using the 2020 version of the plane, but for me all the 2020 aircraft were opt in and not enabled by default.
I’m sitting in the 2024 version and avionics look like any other G1000 in 2024.
What, exactly, is a 2020 version of WT’s Garmin G1000?
The individual I quoted specifically said “Asobo G1000” and this Baron clearly doesn’t have Asobo’s G1000.
No, it’s the default Baron.
I was actually responded to by an admin that it has been bug logged previously.
A quick way to check is to see if you have a “lean” page or not on the MFD in the Baron.
Here’s the link the admin/moderator provided:
Go vote on it! It only has 8 votes, including mine!
Here’s my bug report, if you want to vote on it, I really like the Baron! I want to make sure it gets the care that it deserves:

To my knowledge Working Title has created 2024 versions of their avionics that are different from the 2020 version, exactly what is different I couldn’t say, but it does seem to cause some issues with sending flightplans from the EFB etc. (In fact it has been confirmed that the Saab 340 is using a 2020 version of UNS-1 which apparently exist).

Interesting. Thanks for that bit of info.

Yeah I just noticed today the upper surface of the wing looks like someone hammered all over it.

Outer lighting not working.
Engine leaning not visible or working.
Just not up to scratch.

Got Vote under either of the two bug reports linked a few posts above! 
G1000 on this aircraft is not displaying the engine information screen for the temperatures to adjust mixture.
Correct, it’s been bug-logged.
It appears it’s calling the he original Asobo G1000 to instead of the WT version.

It only has one alternator in career mode maintenance menu. It should have two, obviously.
I love how it flies, but yeah. There’s obviously a lot of problems (displays too bright, bugged fuel system, pulverized model).
Aside from the earlier mentioned bugs, the flight model for this Baron is insanely overpowered on takeoff. When I take the runway and go to full power (Max takeoff weight at sea level, standard ISA day), it takes only a couple of seconds to rotate, and the rudder is extremely twitchy. Feels like a fighter jet and I’m hanging onto the tail. Initial pitch attitude is 20+ deg to hold 120-140 KIAS with climb rates exceeding 4000FPM. Pulling the power back to 25" MP and 2500 RPM, it still climbs at 2500-3000fpm. I watched several YouTube videos and it looks like they pitch to around 10 deg and the aircraft holds about 110-130KIAS while climbing at 1500-2000FPM. Example, here is F1 driver Romain Grosjean performing a takeoff in a G58. G58 Takeoff
Cruise performance seems accurate at 190-200 KTAS and 18-20GPH per side. But wow is this thing a rocket in the takeoff regime. Very unrealistic.

dumb question — how can i tell the difference? getting my feet wet in genAviation in ‘24 (thanks career mode lol) and the baron is one aircraft i really enjoy flying but NAV mode doesn’t work no matter what i do lol. i don’t have this issue flying the same flightplan with the g1000 in the 172 skyhawk. i only get ROL/HDG… which is fine, but… eh

The older, outdated, Asobo Garmin will boot instantly and have no startup initialization sequence.
The WT Garmin will have all of that, plus the MFD will require a press of the lower right soft key to clear the splash page.
These are all screenshots of the WT Garmin implementation:
