By the way, ITT stands for Interstage Turbine Temperature, not "inlet temperature". ITT is the measure of the exhaust gases temperature between the high pressure and the low pressure turbines.
Overkill, Nice demo. Thankyou. Your G3000 is different from my standard one, but I learnt a lot. An approach and landing technique you might like to try: I descend at 40% power ~ 155 KIAS. When the glideslope is captured and the nose drops, I extend landing gear and first notch of flap. Power to 25% and I aim for 124 KIAS so if I fly a missed approach, I'm already at max climb speed. I hold this configuration until the inner marker ~ 1000 feet to run, than drop landing flap. Disengage autopilot which will have trimmed the flap extension, and close the throttle. Speed bleeds to 85 IAS at the 500 foot marker. Landing flap has a lot of drag, and you are flying on the back end of the drag curve and speed instability can bite. I have about 160 hours on the TBM 930, and my only crash has been on the landing challenge at Courcheval, when I let the speed decay to 70 KIAS and even max power would not recover. MSFS has since reduced the landing flap drag. This is a point of 'prettyness', but for people making impressive videos like yours, you can customize the Registration in the World Map planning - scroll down to Customisation. Being an Aussie, my rego is VH-CLM which appears on the cockpit dash and the skin of the aircraft. You can set a Callsign which is my case is CLM31. (The tail number of the RAAF Mirage IIIO I was assigned.) You need to add something to CLM as MSFS adds 1233. Thanks again. Off to try some of your tricks.
So why not set your lowest altitude in the ALT box, press VNAV and voila, it'll start down and meet every alt. That's what we did in the airliners, less pilot work load in IMC conditions
For the transponder, its really up to what kind of airspace that you’re in. If you’re within the mode c veil, then you’d have it on alt reporting for VFR flight as part of your startup checklist. For IFR I’m pretty sure you have it on completely to provide the most information to the controllers while under a squawk code. It’s only required within the mode c veil and in A, B, C airspace, or above 10,000ft MSL unless you’re above 10,000ft MSL but below 1,200ft AGL.
Im too late sorry . 33:52 instead using the VS U can use VNV but first you have to change your altitude to the target altitude then you can press VNV it will do all this things by itself
Why calculate a VNAV profile and then come down in VS mode??? Just below the VS button is the VNV button. This activates the VNAV profile and the plane will follow it down on its own. Sorry, but that is absolutely incomprehensible. This is not how VNAV works.
I had it working yesterday. Just touched that button for fun expecting for it not to work. But it did! Gonna try it again tonight to see if i can get it to work again!
@@OverkillSimulations It is found under the notes for the arrival (underneath d-ATIS freq, item 4 it says: Turbojet aircraft only). To keep things a bit more realistic should you choose; I would recommend to read those as well and check if any of the notes apply to you. Just a thought. Good catch @anthonyd518
Question if you arm the VNAV it should do this function automatically if you placed all the altitude values with the corresponding waypoints, that is the function of VNAV you do not have it armed you used the VS function.
@@OverkillSimulations I'm looking at the system from a pilots view I'm so surprised with all that this program does that they couldn't make VNAV operational, does that go for all their autopilots in MSFS like the 787 and the 747.
@@OverkillSimulations literally the same story here. Good luck to ya. People knew what they were doing when they started this whole COVID mess...caused shortages and crazy price increases all due to psychology. Just like we really never had a toilet paper shortage, we now don't have a housing shortage either, but....
I have a question about real life VNAV. Does it works similar as in sim? System provides you ''advice'' when you start a decent and vertical speed. And you have to set up vertical speed manually. Doesn't it looks like that: you just activate vnav and watch the throttle, so you don't overspeed and autopilot descent to assigned altitude automatically...
There are two kinds of VNAV, Coupled VNAV and Advisory VNAV, coupled means the VNAV takes control of the aircraft's pitch in order to maintain your desired descent speed/angle. Advisory VNAV simply shows a vertical speed target that you need to follow on your own in order to maintain your descent speed and angle
It doesn't work for the G3000 in MSFS yet. It will only advise you of the TOD and give you the descent path & rate bugs to try to follow by other means. I think only the G1000NXi equipped planes have working VNAV auto-pilot.
When I activate VNAV and set the altitude to the final approach fix, the plane descends automatically according to the published sequence. I don't know if this feature was added after this video was made. I do not have to manually descend by setting the descent rate. The VNAV PATH takes care of the descent. Either way this is a fantastic guide to VNAV .
Been Flying the TBM for a week now and absolutely love it! Massive upgrade on the DA62 and when combined with VATSIM its sublime! Great time to be a alive! As a kid I dreamed of this kind of stuff!
During my flight training my instructors said not to have the Transponder on until cleared for take off or runway entry. Reason is that an aircraft on Approach would receive an collision alert and would go around not a good thing. We used the line of Lights Camera Action….Lights obviously all lights needed for departure….Camera is Transponder so you can be seen…..Action is Throttle up checking engine gauges. I see you are getting MixMugs Bugs too with High ITT upon take off not matching Torque climb out on Low Torque which should be 96 to 100. The standby Instrument High Speed Tape not matching the PFD High Speed which is the Correct one. If it weren’t for the opening doors I’d get rid of it LOL. Awesome content like the VNAV info. Though I’m surprised it’s not more automatic on calculating the altitudes for you. I’m really enjoying the CJ4 Mod it’s so good.
It mostly depends on the airport if it is using ASDE-X which is requested to have it on. However; please search for ASFO 15006 where the FAA states: "all operators and pilots of the need to ensure that transponders are in the altitude reporting mode whenever their aircraft is on an airport movement area at all airports."
I've flown into Denver before in commercial airliners and it is notorious for cross winds so I'm not surprised to see you experience moderate cross winds with the TBM-930 on the flight simulator.
I think the VNAV button on the AP Controls will automatically capture and control the decent of the aircraft once the aircraft hits the TOD mark, you just have to make sure that the altitude selected with the ALT knob (in blue) remains below the set altitude minimums at each waypoint on the VNAV approach (in magenta). If not, as a safety feature I think, the aircraft will stop descending if the set altitude is higher than the VNAV number. I don't think this will take you all the way to the runway threshold for landing, but if the airport has a Localizer for the arrival runway (and you remember to set that in the NAV Radio settings), you can switch to LOC in the "Active NAV" on the PFD, hit APR on the Autopilot, and that will take you all the way down to the ground typically.
also came to the same conclusion in regards to setting the altitudes before reaching cruise alt. but the thing im looking is, once everything is setup correctly, why doesnt the actual VNAV autopilot function work and we have to use the VS instead (its not just because of the lack of autothroggle, because its the same issue with the longitude). any ideals if we are getting this system up and running from asobo?
Looking forward to when Working Title can add working VNAV to the G3000 and G5000. After using it in the G1000NXi, I am sold on its ease for RNAV approaches
So VNV doesn't actually capture the glide path during the descent. You have to manually adjust rate of descent through VS mode. I've also noticed that during RNAV approaches, approach mode doesn't capture the glide path. So ILS works just not RNAV? I also fly the G3000 in the TBM nearly exclusively. Am i missing something?
Very good video about the TBM and G3000! Easy to follow and to transfer the information to other routes. I noticed that when I use the procedures button, that the g3000 adds random USR/USER waypoints to the SIDS and STARs which are completely messing up the departure/ approach as they are not in sequence with the correct waypoints. I didn’t see that happening in your video when you inserted the procedures in the flightplan…any idea how to avoid these USR/USER waypoints? I am on WT G3000 v 0.7.6 and the latest TBM mod…
Why didn't you use the VNAV button on the autopilot or the VNAV direct button on the VNAV page? If you had your work load would have been less and you probably wouldn't have missed the speed restriction. Otherwise, nice job. I really enjoyed it. I own and fly an M600.
Hey OverKill - When you're managing the descent why not just press the VNV button to activate auto pitch down? As long as you have target altitude set it should follow the caret all the way down.
At the time of THIS particular video, VNAV management wasn't implemented. You had to use VS but the calculations at least told you when to do it and how to follow it
I am not achieving the same rate of climb that you do in the vide. I hit 24000 well past the point that you do. What’s the procedure for getting there quickly?
I have the same problem. I’m curious if you’re using multiple displays with Nvidia Surround. I am, and I have blurry screen elements in MSFS, and in DCS, as well. There seems to be no fix, whatsoever. ☹️
@@BPond7 No, I'm not using multiple display with nvidia surround, I don't think that is the problem, I'm still having it to this date (Oct/31st/2021) I don't know what to do... :( Please let me know if you found the solution.
I know MSFS has had issues w/ VNAV working in other aircraft; what exactly does the physical 'vnav' button do then, or are you manually doing here what it is supposed to be doing? Also, what is the SPD button doing if there's no auto-throttle on the 930?
VNV should activate VNAV and the plane will automatically follow the VPATH down. You only need to keep an eye on the speed. This works fine on the 1000NXi. Haven't tested it on the TBM930 with the 3000 mod.
Question - Why move the centre of gravity? Is that just a short way of adjusting the loading to balance it or is it just cheesing the game to move it when irl it would be where it was?
I saw the same; my take on that is that you came move weight (not a magical CG slider :D) around to shift the CG either forward of aft to keep it as much balance as you can.
Trying to follow along but the MFD doesn't have all the options yours has, e.g. there is no Charts button. Other issues encountered were there wasn't a RUGGD1 departure but a RUGGD2, same for the approach LONGZ1 is now LONGZ2. Is this b/c of a newer version of Garmin or a bug with MSFS? Do I have something set up incorrectly?
Why when VNAV is activated on GPS screens, the VNV button is not activated on the autopilot plane panel? Is it normal? Are they the same? This tutorial is great by the way. EDIT: For what I've seen in the next minutes, you configure the vertical speed of descent manually, shouldn't the AP do this with VNV button activated?
@overkillsimulations: Hi, great video - helped me so much! Donated 10 D for the TBM930/G3000 guide. Also sent a mail as desired in the video description. But still didnt get any answer. Maybe there is a problem with receiving my mail. Any suggestions how to proceed? Best regards - Peter
Turning the transponder on while on the ground has to do with if the airport uses an Airport Surface Detection Equipment (ASDE &ASDE-X). This is ground radar that uses both primary and secondary radar to paint the aircraft on the ground on the appropriate taxiways. SLC and other large (core 30 usually) in the US have this requirement. I’m sure it’s the same in other parts of the world just check the Airfield Diagram.
Thank you so much OverKill. That was very instructive to me. What is still causing me problems are some descending sequences that are just too fast. You have this sequence of steps at different altitudes and it gets hard to adjust ALT and descending VS accordingly to VNAV planning.
I deleted my previous comment. Turns out I was wrong and the VNAV auto-pilot doesn't work in the G3000 yet and you have to follow the VNAV descent manually like he does in the video. For now, if you want a true automated VNAV autopilot you have to use a plane with the G1000NXi equipped.
1. Can confirm the need to be at cruise altitude before entering VNAV data. 2. At 29:37 "we need to slow this aircraft down". Known Working Title bug. Makes sense that the PFD does not also indicate Max Operating speed. The PDF is correct. 3. Right Alt windows. Thank You.
To answer your question about the Transponder and whether to turn on prior to the runway. Most modern complex acft have the transponder tied in with the squat switch on the main gear. GCA may require your transponder on while at large airports, but the altitude encoding does not activate till your off the ground. Acft I flew in the Army required the transponder on once entering the runway (fixed) gear.
My glide slope doesn't lick in quite as nice as yours. Yours stays right in the center. Do u think it has to do with my nose trim? If it's up too high?? Would that even matter if the autopilot is on?
Please do this for the KING AIR 350 and test ILS Glide Slope. For me it does not show the Green Diamond but it does find the Glide Slope. It used to though.
When to turn on the altitude reporting for the transponder? It used to be to keep it in ground mode until you take off. But within the past few years , it has changed to always keep it in altitude mode at all times. But there are plenty of pilots that didn’t get the memo, and are still doing it the old way. But not a big deal to do it the old way. But never ident unless ATC requests it
Will the ATC allow u to do that V profile from VNAV, I believe in the real world u can indicate VNAV profile in the flight plan and ATC will just allow u to do it in Normal conditions.
Great Video as Always, sometimes at night the time just goes by like nothing watching your tutorials sometimes just to enjoy a good fly and a nice way to explain things, thanks a lot... I have a question, when I'm flying my beautiful TBM stock (no mods) the autopilot fly banking left or right, if I active the LVL button on top of the AP the TBM fly lvl but as soon I active the AP the same thing happens, when I put the mods nothing seems to change, any thoughts? thanks if anyone can help me. system : AMD 3970x-64gb-2080ti-M.2 2 tb just in case...
Hi. Am really enjoying your vids. In one of your previous videos you recommended the rudder you use for flight simulation. Could you let me know which one you meant? Thanks.
Hey Overkilll, really enjoy your videos - they are very well made and keenly focused on the good stuff. I may just have to subscribe to your Patreon to get to the really good stuff. That said, I thought I’d share a little discovery i made with you and whomever reads this. Did you know that you don’t have to use that very thin scroll bar on the FMS? That’s right, it’s designed for touch, so basically you can click/hold/swipe on any area of the screen that isn’t a button and scroll through the flight plan, etc. Pretty cool eh?
Can you make a video on how you take off. I see that you set your speed bug, hit togga bring n1-2 up to 50 percent but when I try it, it's like the fmc dose not take over and the longitude just goes past my speed bug setting... could you help me out with understanding this better step by step please...
Excellent video and very helpful. One question: At 30:03, you activate the SPD button without explanation, although you mention elsewhere in the video that this aircraft does not have auto throttle. What does the SPD button actually do in a plane without auto throttle? Thanks for your response.
Anybody remember when Realair Simulations came up with their smooth gauge technology so all the gauges were silky smooth. Hope somebody comes up with similar for the MFD’s so they move like butter smooth.

Overkill,
Nice demo. Thankyou.
Your G3000 is different from my standard one, but I learnt a lot.
An approach and landing technique you might like to try: I descend at 40% power ~ 155 KIAS. When the glideslope is captured and the nose drops, I extend landing gear and first notch of flap. Power to 25% and I aim for 124 KIAS so if I fly a missed approach, I'm already at max climb speed. I hold this configuration until the inner marker ~ 1000 feet to run, than drop landing flap. Disengage autopilot which will have trimmed the flap extension, and close the throttle. Speed bleeds to 85 IAS at the 500 foot marker.
Landing flap has a lot of drag, and you are flying on the back end of the drag curve and speed instability can bite. I have about 160 hours on the TBM 930, and my only crash has been on the landing challenge at Courcheval, when I let the speed decay to 70 KIAS and even max power would not recover. MSFS has since reduced the landing flap drag.

Trying to follow along but the MFD doesn't have all the options yours has, e.g. there is no Charts button. Other issues encountered were there wasn't a RUGGD1 departure but a RUGGD2, same for the approach LONGZ1 is now LONGZ2. Is this b/c of a newer version of Garmin or a bug with MSFS? Do I have something set up incorrectly?
Why when VNAV is activated on GPS screens, the VNV button is not activated on the autopilot plane panel? Is it normal? Are they the same?
This tutorial is great by the way.
EDIT: For what I've seen in the next minutes, you configure the vertical speed of descent manually, shouldn't the AP do this with VNV button activated?
@overkillsimulations: Hi, great video - helped me so much! Donated 10 D for the TBM930/G3000
guide. Also sent a mail as desired in the video description. But still
didnt get any answer. Maybe there is a problem with receiving my mail.
Any suggestions how to proceed? Best regards - Peter
Turning the transponder on while on the ground has to do with if the airport uses an Airport Surface Detection Equipment (ASDE &ASDE-X). This is ground radar that uses both primary and secondary radar to paint the aircraft on the ground on the appropriate taxiways. SLC and other large (core 30 usually) in the US have this requirement. I’m sure it’s the same in other parts of the world just check the Airfield Diagram.
Thank you so much OverKill. That was very instructive to me. What is still causing me problems are some descending sequences that are just too fast. You have this sequence of steps at different altitudes and it gets hard to adjust ALT and descending VS accordingly to VNAV planning.
I deleted my previous comment. Turns out I was wrong and the VNAV auto-pilot doesn't work in the G3000 yet and you have to follow the VNAV descent manually like he does in the video. For now, if you want a true automated VNAV autopilot you have to use a plane with the G1000NXi equipped.
1. Can confirm the need to be at cruise altitude before entering VNAV data.
2. At 29:37 "we need to slow this aircraft down". Known Working Title bug. Makes sense that the PFD does not also indicate Max Operating speed. The PDF is correct.
3. Right Alt windows. Thank You.
great videos! Hey, I loaded the C208B Mod and now my entire cabin is invisible!! No panel instruments...nada. Any ideas?
To answer your question about the Transponder and whether to turn on prior to the runway. Most modern complex acft have the transponder tied in with the squat switch on the main gear. GCA may require your transponder on while at large airports, but the altitude encoding does not activate till your off the ground. Acft I flew in the Army required the transponder on once entering the runway (fixed) gear.
Congratulations, excellent!
My glide slope doesn't lick in quite as nice as yours. Yours stays right in the center. Do u think it has to do with my nose trim? If it's up too high?? Would that even matter if the autopilot is on?
There is a button in the TBM to hide and show the co-pilot? I never knew..
Seat belt lol
Yeah, it's in the DA-62 as well. What I really want to know is if they're in the real aircraft too! 😉 Your plane! 🤣
Please do this for the KING AIR 350 and test ILS Glide Slope. For me it does not show the Green Diamond but it does find the Glide Slope. It used to though.
When to turn on the altitude reporting for the transponder? It used to be to keep it in ground mode until you take off. But within the past few years , it has changed to always keep it in altitude mode at all times.
But there are plenty of pilots that didn’t get the memo, and are still doing it the old way. But not a big deal to do it the old way.
But never ident unless ATC requests it
My flight instructor taught take-off checklist as "Lights, Camera (xpndr to ALT), Action!"
Sorry if I missed it but what does the VNAV button do in the TBM?
Will the ATC allow u to do that V profile from VNAV, I believe in the real world u can indicate VNAV profile in the flight plan and ATC will just allow u to do it in Normal conditions.
Great Video as Always, sometimes at night the time just goes by like nothing watching your tutorials sometimes just to enjoy a good fly and a nice way to explain things, thanks a lot...
I have a question, when I'm flying my beautiful TBM stock (no mods) the autopilot fly banking left or right, if I active the LVL button on top of the AP the TBM fly lvl but as soon I active the AP the same thing happens, when I put the mods nothing seems to change, any thoughts? thanks if anyone can help me.
system : AMD 3970x-64gb-2080ti-M.2 2 tb just in case...
TBM most enjoyable aircraft for me besides the new Kodiak coming out end of July into August can’t wait for that plane!
Hi. Am really enjoying your vids. In one of your previous videos you recommended the rudder you use for flight simulation. Could you let me know which one you meant? Thanks.
can someone help me out with why my TOD isn't always showing in my VNAV profile?
Hey Overkilll, really enjoy your videos - they are very well made and keenly focused on the good stuff. I may just have to subscribe to your Patreon to get to the really good stuff. That said, I thought I’d share a little discovery i made with you and whomever reads this. Did you know that you don’t have to use that very thin scroll bar on the FMS? That’s right, it’s designed for touch, so basically you can click/hold/swipe on any area of the screen that isn’t a button and scroll through the flight plan, etc. Pretty cool eh?
Yes! I was aware! That team has really done an amazing job!! I tend to accidentally click things when I do it though lol
Where is that sheet with the flight plan, payload , etc coming from?
My screens under the MFD do not look like yours. Is that a mod to get it to look like that?
Thanks for this! Out of curiosity, can you use VNAV on the climb as well for constraints?
Holy crap!! This video is great and helped me so much! Thank you keep it up!!
Can you make a video on how you take off. I see that you set your speed bug, hit togga bring n1-2 up to 50 percent but when I try it, it's like the fmc dose not take over and the longitude just goes past my speed bug setting... could you help me out with understanding this better step by step please...
Yes I can :) I'll try to have it out tonight
I love the part when you go to the back seat to watch the flight as a passenger hahahaha
Excellent video and very helpful. One question: At 30:03, you activate the SPD button without explanation, although you mention elsewhere in the video that this aircraft does not have auto throttle. What does the SPD button actually do in a plane without auto throttle? Thanks for your response.
SPD toggles airspeed between knots and mach
didn´t know the underlining: above, at and below. thank you
Yes the reg has you put the Transponder to alt upon taxi.
Hi, how do you do to show TOD on MFD?
That's very slick. Definitely going to be giving it a shot on my next TBM flight.
Great vid. How come you don’t set the weights ect in the fmc?
excellent presenter with excellent info. Thanks so much overkill.
My MFD and PFD screens look nothing like yours. How do i get that?

I learned a lot from this video
Very useful, thank you so much for your time Overkill!
Does VNAV/ILS work automatically or do you have to control autopilot/ the airplane yourself?
Thanks for the video instruction.
Vs 0.7.4 Bug bug bug for me!
Anybody remember when Realair Simulations came up with their smooth gauge technology so all the gauges were silky smooth. Hope somebody comes up with similar for the MFD’s so they move like butter smooth.
Did they not move much smoother when MSFS launched? I could swear they did, but maybe that is just wishful thinking.
I miss Realair Simulations so much! The Duke was my all-time favorite.
Always hooking me up with solid TBM knowledge
Any reason my vnav selector in the MFD stays grayed out?
You need administrator rights
@@XSI5 can you explain?
BRAVO ZULU !
TANGO MIKE!
@@OverkillSimulations My first tour as an RAF Buccaneer navigator was on 809 NAS in HMS Ark Royal in 1975/76. One of the F4 Sqn (892) LSOs was Lt “Beau” Beaulier USN. If the pilot “spotted the deck” and pulled the power back, instead of flying the meatball, his debrief abbreviation was DLATFATM. Dropped like a turd from a tall moose !
