    Microsoft Pilatus PC-6 Realism Mod - Image 1

    Beschreibung

    This is a modification to the MSFS 2020 default Microsoft Pilatus PC-6/B2-H4 Turbo Porter aircraft, including all of the G950, Floats, and Skis variants.  It is primarily aimed at improving the aircraft flight model to make its overall performance more closely match the actual aircraft, providing a much closer experience to flying the real aircraft.  Multiple changes have been made to the flight model and engine parameters, as well as the weight and balance, which are all detailed in the Change Log file in the Documentation folder.  A PDF copy of the actual aircraft POH is also included in the download under the Documentation folder.

    The Pilatus PC-6 Porter might look a bit strange, and somewhat ugly, but it more than makes up for it with exceptional performance.  This is a high performance STOL aircraft, designed for transporting both passengers and cargo in and out of very remote primitive airstrips, especially in high altitude mountainous areas with difficult approaches.  It can be quickly and easily converted in the field in only a few minutes for transporting passengers, cargo, or as an air ambulance.  The wide sliding side doors also make it a favorite of sky divers.  It even has a trap door for parachute dropping cargo or medical supplies into areas with no airfield at all.  It's simple, rugged, easy to maintain design, and It's amazing versatility and STOL performance are legendary.

    This mod is easily installed by simply unzipping the download file and copying the mge-microsoft-aircraft-pilatus-pc6 folder to the MSFS Community folder.  It will then replace all four variants of the default Pilatus PC-6/B2-H4 Turbo Porter aircraft in the MSFS aircraft selection screen, and will also continue to allow use all of the existing available Liveries.  To uninstall the mod and return to using the MSFS default aircraft, simply remove it from the Community folder.

    Very good work like all your other realism mods. Sadly AAV2 Update seams to have broken this one. The analog trim indicators on the G950 variant aren't working. Is there any chance for a fix?

    TIP OF THE DAY: When performing a takeoff in the FLOATS variant, leave the Rudder Trim at Neutral until after takeoff. Since it does not have the same nose up static ground pitch as the other variants it will not exhibit the same P-Factor yaw until the pitch is increased during takeoff. You can then adjust the trim as needed to counter the P-Factor yaw during climb out. When performing a takeoff in the other variants, set the Rudder Trim to the green T/O mark before takeoff, and then adjust it as needed during climb out.

    TIP OF THE DAY: When performing a normal runway landing set the flaps only to the takeoff position (28 degrees), which is almost as much as full flaps on a C172. Full flaps (38 degrees) mainly increases the drag and should only be used for extreme short field or soft field landings to minimize touchdown speed and rollout, and for steep descents. This aircraft is certified to perform steep descents of -3000 fpm or more with full flaps and Idle power.

    TIP OF THE DAY: The FP5L Digital Fuel Meter used on the GAUGE variants has been configured to display the LOW FUEL alarm (red light) at the following times:
    1) The Fuel Remaining is below 25% capacity.
    2) The Fuel Remaining is less than 30 Min. flight time at the current fuel flow rate.
    3) The Fuel Remaining is not sufficient for 30 Min. flight time at the normal cruise fuel flow rate.

    The FUEL PRESSURE alarm (red light) will turn on if the Fuel Pressure is below 5.5 psi or above 50 psi. The alarms can be reset by pressing any button or switch.

    This is a very versatile instrument that will display the following:
    1) Current Fuel Flow Rate and Engine Horsepower
    2) Fuel Remaining
    3) Fuel Used
    4) Flight Time Remaining at current fuel flow rate
    5) Fuel Pressure

    TIP OF THE DAY: The GAUGE variants of this aircraft have the Copilot and PAX seats removed for transporting cargo, and the default loading includes only the Pilot and Cargo. So, the aircraft will be slightly unbalanced (left wing heavy) by default because of the missing Copilot, which will cause a slight left roll. To correct this imbalance, apply a small amount of right AILERON TRIM.

    Hi @mgouge425, I don’t know if you are aware but there is a bug with the transponder in the steam gauge version of the Porter. If you do a cold and dark start the transponder cannot be switched on. Is there any chance of you being able to fix this with your mod? I appreciate you have probably moved on but I thought I’d ask as it would make my day.

    Unfortunately, this is a bug in the default aircraft that only Asobo can fix. I recommend submitting a bug report on it.... This bug has now been fixed in SU15.

    Hello! This mod currently breaks the g950 variant. I can't fly without it tough so please fix!

    I am unable to duplicate this problem... It might be a conflict with some other mod or livery. If you are using the SU15 BETA, it could also be a new compatibility bug. If so, a compatibility update will be uploaded after the final release of SU15... A new SU15 compatibility release has now been uploaded that fixes this problem.

    Is there a way to use the G950 in the ski variant?

    Great mod, Thank you. Any configuration mappings for the Bravo Throttle Quadrant you would suggest as I am having no real control over prop pitch, feathering or fuel mixture cut-off

    Unfortunately, the Prop and Condition levers in this aircraft do not fully respond to the standard MSFS controller command assignments. The Prop Lever assignment works correctly to change the prop pitch, but feathering must be done manually using the cockpit lever, which is also required on other aircraft like the Baron G58. The Condition lever must be manually moved using the cockpit lever. Cutoff also requires clicking on the Cutoff Stop before moving the lever fully aft. These limitations are bugs that can only be fixed by Asobo.

    Wonderful work, thank you!
    I've added a link and some videos to the Flight Sim Museum, but probably can't post a link in this field. ... looks like I can...
