ISSUE DESCRIPTION
Description of the issue: In Career mode the PC-12 NGX requires you to maintain 4 batteries. IRL this aircraft only has 2 batteries so why do we have to maintain 4 at over 40,000Cr each. In addition to which they require maintaining at least every 12 to 15 hours at the above price and not even every 25hrs! This requires us to pay the Check Up fee much, much sooner than is fair!
The alternator is also an issue due to its rapid wear rate. No aircraft requires a new alternator this quickly.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
-
Open up maintenance schedule every 15 hours +/-
-
This is because the technician will say you have “Unexpected damage”
-
All it is is the batteries, alternator and tires
-
This wear rate is not realistic - PLEASE NOTE THE NGX MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE SAYS A 600hr maintenance inspection schedule.
YOUR SETTINGS
If the issue still occurs with no mods and add-ons, please continue to report your issue. If not, please move this post to the User Support Hub.
What peripherals are you using:
[PC Only] Are you using Developer Mode or have you made any changes to it?
[PC, MSFS 2020 Only] Are you using DX11 or DX12?

MEDIA
Note the NG model precedes the NGX at which point they add a 2nd battery.
The NGX version does NOT add 2 more!
This shot shows the “Unexpected Damage” message which forces one to pay the required inspection fee in case the aircraft will not fly. It should not be saying this if the only “damage” is the batteries/alternator wearing out every 15 hours.
These next 2 shots show the 4 batteries and the ridiculous wear rate applied to the batteries and alternator.
