TBM930 heading/altitiude bugs sometimes stuck at large increments

[telescpebldr]

Do you have any hardware that has a toggle switch? If so, this is a bug that has been around since launch and is present when using controls such as the honeycomb yoke, or any panel/hardware that has toggle switches. Basically the controls go from 1 to 10, 100 to 1000 when it thinks you’re repeatedly trying to turn it.

There are extensive posts and videos going into elaborate detail about it so I’ll point you there. This is supposed to be fixed in the next sim update.

It is present in all aircraft.

Heading Increment Bug (10 degree instead of 1) Explained

Imagine you’re designing a flight simulator and realize that sometimes the user will hold down a keyboard key or joystick button to make scrolling something faster. Maybe they want to increase their heading bug or their autopilot altitude setting faster so they hold down that key or button. One thing you could do is nothing. Just let them hold down the button and let that input increment up by one repeatedly. That can work. Or you could give the user some help. Maybe you could code in somethin…

Large heading bug increments when using Honeycomb yoke

I know it doesn’t make sense, but if I use my Honeycomb yoke (rather than my Saitek yoke), the heading bug increments in 5-10 degree jumps rather than 1 degree. Switch back to the Saitek and 1deg increments return. I am not the only one to have noticed this.
