Is there a switch in this plane for Pitot heat, or is it done automatically? Noticed the warning message upon takeoff but not sure if it’s a bug or what. Can’t seem to find any information on it.
Thanks!
Automatically.
Appreciate it thanks. Assuming it’s just one of many bugs then.
So my pitot automatically got frozen after flying through cloud. Any chance that this mystical switch actually exist?
I get this warning as well, but there doesn’t seem to be a Pitot switch to turn on.
So did mine, could not find the switch for the life of me, got the warning on take off as well.
Try the IPS knob (I assume Ice protection system), auto standard but broken basically all Anti-ice except the windshield

Guys it seams to be a bug… I’ve got my pitot frozen too… but I got a work around for this, its not the best way but it is what it is…
after start the airplane start you taxing fase and then use jump to take off shortcut. when you jump to takeoff the airplane will be all set to takeoff, make all setting that you need to flight and when you start taking off you will see that the pitot heat warning will not show. jumping to take off turns on the pitot heat.
For me, I have to switch the IPS to All on to defrost pitot after I notice it’s frozen
I had problems with unreliable airspeed when only using IPS, to me it seems the pitot heater circuit breaker needs to be pushed in but I’m still not 100% sure about this.
Same here, while on Auto I had the pitot freeze over, had to turn all the heats to MAN HI or ON and it fixed the issue quickly
