Excellent and informative video - I've had the 550 for a while now and there's so much that I've missed until i saw this. Keep up the outstanding work!
Dad's a check-in trainer/ captain on the 550. Will contemplate purchasing this and getting him to fly it. I mostly fly MSFS atm, do own XP12, just never use it for mostly the graphics. Modelling for this looks superb though, a lot better than what I've seen else where for XP12.
Hey I have another question is there a button or dial in the cockpit to change the brightness of the annunciator, because e.g. the word Inhibit at WARN INHIBIT is extremely bright in the annunciator and barely legible.
With no manual VS functionality, is there a way to decrease vertical speed to something less than 6,000ft /minute? That seems excessive. I tried switching to manual speed (although then I’m just using flight level change and no longer FMS speed) but the vertical speed was still way too high. Why is the VS rate so high regardless of selected speed?
Awesome product. The bank angle on the pfd needs fixed

Glad it was helpful!

Hey great video, but I have a question I want to control the exterior lights with my Honeycomb Alpha what commands do I need?
Hi,
Thanks, you need to use custom datarefs to control external lights. Unfortunately there are no commands available for that.

Still getting the hang of this bird. Autothrottle all the way to touchdown or did you disconnect AT on final? Its hard to know in the last 60 seconds.
Autothrottle automatically disconnects about 40ft above the ground during landing
keyboard doesnt work on the plane when startet using the ipad

There is manual VS mode on MCP, and you can set your vertical speed in the MCP window.
MSFS?
No, Making planes for MSFS is completely different from making them for X-Plane and I don't know how to develop things for MSFS at this level.
