These are just a few of the multitude of bugs and missing features of this plane which sucks cuz it’s such a fun plane to fly irl I was hoping to have this thing modeled with a little bit of effort so I could show my buddy the different systems and such. Total bummer with the state it’s currently in.
Some other bugs I have seen:
-When activating Prop Low Speed, Np doesn’t turn cyan in color like it should and the Crew Alerting System doesn’t show a cyan message saying “Prop Low Speed”
-Performance in the flight levels is much too good. Climb rate at FL300 should be relatively poor since it is the service ceiling but the plane seems to still have great performance
-Ng randomly drops below the green range in flight if throttle is at idle which would never happen irl if the plane is functioning properly
-
The black background on the HSI when in WX or TAWS overlay shouldn’t be there
-
MFD swap button on touch screen controller doesn’t work
-
Crew Alerting System is either totally broken or is not modeled
Another issue I’d like to add to be fixed is the beta behavior. In fact the plane has no beta to speak of. Other companies were able to do this properly and even the Caravan in FS24 has a usable beta so it’s puzzling why on this plane it’s either runaway on ground or full reverse? Full pain to taxi this way…
Well, there is more…
Was just doing a medium cargo mission with the PC-12 and was cruising at FL300 as instructed but got a message to descend to a lower altitude because of lack of oxygen. Since the pressurization is not working in this plane how are we supposed to do these jobs? We can not add extra fuel and the fuel given by the mission is only enough if cruising at altitude. Eventually the plane just crashed at FL300 and mission failed. Just like this sim…
Did you have trouble with the AP? I couldn’t get the NAV AP to lock on the track. Is there a trick to it?
Has anyone figured how to change from IN to HPA for baro setting?
Does anyone else besides me experience the bug where the aircraft suffers a “mid-air break-up” during descent, even though you’re within the speed limits, there are no turbulence, and no abrupt control movements?
Seems there are still major issues with getting NAV mode to work.
Entering departure and destination airport with procedures then activating. Ensuring that NAV mode is set to FMS on both sides. Still not coupling.
The above was caused by borked navdata package from Navigraph. Reinstalling the latest AIRAC via Hub solved it for now.
thankfully no. if we assume it’s not just a random and very annoying bug (frankly the most likely explanation), could it be a somewhat over-dramatic consequence of lack of maintenance?
Hey, not sure if already mentioned but in Career mode you get a “merit deduction” for not using landing lights on the PC12 because they only actually come on when the gear is selected down. This should somehow be linked to the switch position I think.
Assign a hot key for adding fuel… so many of the career missions are setup without appropriate physics so they run out of fuel… I fly low and top it up if needed… this takes away realism but there are too many bugs to get worried about it as ‘crashing’ a Career mission because the aircraft isnt working as it should for this type of detail is more frustrating…
Am i the only one to have sound issues with the PC12 ?
Inside the cockpit sounds exactly like outside, you can hear environmental sounds.. then during flight there is this awful wind sound because of this.
Strange it hasn’t been reported nor corrected for the past 3 updates
