Flying the FSR500 (Piper M500) from Boonville to Ells Willits in Microsoft Flight Simulator
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 ноя 2023
- A quick flight in the FSR500 from Boonville to Ells Willits in Microsoft Flight Simulator - playing with the Garmin G1000NXi, and following an RNAV approach involving a hold. Good fun! You never know - with a few more flights in the FSR500 under my belt I might actually become proficient with it. It really doesn't like slowing down :)
Note - as mentioned in the notes of my previous "first look" video - the documentation for the FSR500 is linked to in the tablet within the aircraft. It is NOT in the installation folder. It's one of the best guidebooks I've seen provided for an aircraft in the simulator.

Don’t worry about the people complaining about your first look videos. They are my go to to get exactly that, a quick first look, and they don’t need to be perfect. We are all capable of seeing things ourselves that are omitted or overlooked ;). Appreciate your work!
Can’t believe the rate you put these videos out! Always look forward to the latest one. Great stuff.
It's my hobby :)
This aircraft is super. The best in MSFS too now. Very good feeling here for everything
I took off today forgetting to take off the chocks. When I removed them all looked good. Until it was time to retract wheels. Well they didn't retract. So I thought landing won't be a problem. The passengers were a little scared but I gave them some croissants and coffee and then they were ok. After landing, And shutdown I noticed a fuse for the hydraulics had popped. This is a fun plane.
Nice landing! And thank you for another great video!
Thanks mate very informative video while also bringing enjoyable flying content.
This aircraft looks interesting. I'm more of a Cessna 170B kind of pilot, but this might be a fun challenge. I have the Hjet for this sort of thing and I do enjoy taking it for a spin once in a while too.
You'll never hear complaints from me about the way you do business, I'm just happy you take me along for the ride. Great video!
Waiting for your more in depth video on the TBM 850!!! Great video, as always !!!!
Always Nice and intresting vlogg👍🇸🇪
According to the manual you can deploy the first notch of flaps and extend the gears at 168 KIAS, which ought to help you slow down (as opposed to side slipping) 🙂
I've got the TBM 850 steam gauge, TBM 930 with G3000 (default plane) but this turboprop as a customized G1000 so it's unique enough to purchase. I'll get it in the future. To get the banana, use the menu to the left of the map. It's somewhere in there. Great video. Lots of fun to watch.
I thought it might be :)
Jonathan - you are my go to for all my info and so I bought this based on your first review despite what you were apologizing for.
I have got lost in the FP planning entry and in this video you did it so fast I couldn't follow - so I dug out your earlier video of
one year ago and noticed that it seems to have changed especially with the entries. any chance you might do a quick video of
the latest Garmin in this aircraft.
That's a good idea!
Willits is on .TO 👍
NEGATIVE on turning the taxi light on…. Nav light and rotating beacon if you have it.
A update is coming tomorrow for this
FSR500 1.09 change log:
- Added Co-Pilot inside cabin and outside.
- Adjusted copilot camera for quick views adjustment now it is inside.
- Re-structured the vehicles folders as GroundVehicles.
- Removed odd folders from SimObjects we inject.
- Removed [EFFECTS] section from Aircraft.cfg.
- Implemented a new autopilot parameter to engage the pitch / roll in the current position servo.
- Removed EFB Display from external Cameras to boost performance.
- Added improvement performance changes to the base package.
- Boosted Performance when using external cameras for long periods of time.
- Fixed Engine camera bug when user burns the starter / generator.
- Fixed Fuel Hose Bug when user cancel the fuel truck during fueling operations.
- Fixed Rudder Trim counter Animation.
- Fixed parking brake, it will not stop the plane when engaged suddenly on the runway or during taxi.
- Removed way-points constraints to avoid VNAV problems as advised by Working title, bugs were reported by customers.
- Preparation for Xbox Release.
If you’d opened the charts for O28 in Navigraph, there is a chart for that approach.
That's interesting - it didn't appear in the tablet in the plane...
This is a wonderful aircraft however I feel more comfortable in the TBM I find my computer set up does better with analog
My thinking too. Whilst this is a good plane, it looks like it chews up FPS. Plus there’s something special about analog gauges methinks
when I want to start the plane's engine respecting the checklist and the order, the engine does not start and I do not understand why
You've broken the generator. In the tablet you can action repairs :)
Your procedure for pressurization is not correct. The correct procedure is outlined in page 6-13 of the manual: "with the engine running and the main cabin door fully closed and latched, the pilot simply needs to push the bleed air lever to open the supply of conditioned bleed air from the P3 compressor, switch the ECS Cabin Comfort to NORM and make sure the Destination Elevation is set using the TMR/REFS softkey 11 on either of the PFDs. It will also be set automatically if importing a SimBrief flight plan via the EFB (but can be altered any time by using the TMR/REFS softkey). "
I imported a flight plan :)
@@jonbeckett actually, when I look at it again, the manual is not clear on the part of using the TMR/REFS softkey 11. I was actually not able to set it like this. I does work when importing the OFP from Simbrief.
Beautiful airplane, but I find the flight model to be just bad. It’s a twitchy mess, even though it performs correctly to published numbers.
I have over 800 hours in single engine airplanes and the FSR500 flight model isn’t how airplanes fly and feel.
The TBM850, PC-12 (needs work, but still a great feeling FM) and C414 all fly much better.
Yep - the TBM 850 is very good. The Comanche 250 is very good too. The C172 that comes with the sim is very accurate too, apparently.
Agreeded...great planebut the flight model unfortunately needs a lot of work
I may have to get this, looks great Hope you enjoyed the Lakes btw.
I did!
