This mod aims to improve the default DA62 in as many aspects as possible.Also included is a PDF with a quick rundown of the added systems (G1000, FADEC and Anti-Ice) Further information can be found in the AFM

Key Features

Powerplant changes

FADEC

The FADEC controls manifold pressure, injected fuel quantity and propeller speed according to the desired engine power preselected with the power lever. The RPM will follow the RPM set curve. (Further details in the included PDF)

Accurate engine performance in relation to pressure altitude and temperature
Accurate fuel flows
More accurate Oil/Coolant temperature and pressure behaviour
More realistic startup behaviour
Fixed Fuel Pumps (no fuel flow increase)
Progressive Engine damage (disabled by default)
Added oil and fuel starvation when flying inverted.

Compatible with WT G1000 Nxi

Fixed Load, RPM indications
Added systems and fuel page with funtional fuel totaliser (G1000 mod)
Correct Engine and Ammeter indication behaviour
Added Aux tank fuel indication
CAS messages added for Engine, Anti ice, Gear, Failures and other systems.

Flightmodel

More accurate Cruise speeds and climb rates
Smoother less twitchy control compared to default
Improved Cl table and stall characteristics
Increased adverse yaw
Increased flap lift and drag
Increased gear drag
Tighter turn radius on the ground and differential braking
More accurate sitting attitude and suspension (rear wheels clip slightly)

Systems

Custom Anti-Ice system with modes, endurance and weight (Check PDF for more info)
Redone electrical system
Functional Ice-Light
Functional windshield defrost (always on)
ECU Tests, functional ECU voters and feathering
Simulated fuel/gearbox temperature
Lower standby instrument brightness for night flying (linked to G1000)
Standalone standby instruments
Improved autopilot PIDs with correct lateral and vertical limitation
Custom Yaw-damper (left pilot's rudder pedal)

Statsaving

Everythring from fuel levels, flaps lights, switches, frequencies are saved between flights. This can be enabled if desired (PDF)

Visuals

Brighter taxi and landing lights (Uwa's lighting mod is already integrated and must be removed!)
Improved Internal cockpit lighting and ambience
Brighter Nav lights and LED strobes
Added white Navlight
Added metal leading edge and MT logo to static prop

Other

Fuel totaliser can be reset by pressing the oxygen guage
Added Debugging CAS messages to help figuring out mod compatibility (FAQ)
Right air vent to toggle flood lights

Hello mrtommymxr,
with this mod no bush trips will work that have "turn off battery" as a condition. You can test it with the recently released Microsoft bush trip "Upper Northeast Adriatic Countries".

Great mod! But can I just say... I was so excited on 0.9.9.9 because I thought it meant the Mod was just ONE tweak away to become the majestic v1.0.0... Joke's on me

Fantastic mod, thank you! The plane handling on ground as well as in the air is soo smooth!

Great job! Feels much smoother now.

Great mod. Definitely a 5 star deal. Is the mod author aware that the throttle does not reduce engine power/lever to zero when at high altitudes? This is a significant problem at airports in Peru, Colorado, the Himalayas, etc. Typically minimum throttle results in about 37%+ minimum throttle which can make the plane come relatively close to gaining air when taxiing and makes final touchdown very difficult to achieve when landing.

Not sure of the cutoff altitude but it's somewhere between 5000ft where there is no throttle bug and 10000ft where the bug appears. Haven't tested enough intermediate airports to find out exactly which altitude causes it exactly. Hope it can be fixed as it's the only thing standing between me and total immersion with this mod.

Works smoothly in SU12, flown it for a good few hours today. All a/p functions work as expected, no unexpected events, and most clickables are working. It seems the ECM test buttons don't do anything though, but it's far from a dealbreaker. Thank you!

erasariel

Great job. Wow. I love the DAA-62, but in the vanilla version I had noticed my throttle could be moved a lot with nothing happening until the last 5mm of travel. This is fixed here. Engine RPM, lights, sounds, etc. etc. Where would we be if not for guys like this? Would we even know the plane wasn't right? I didn't, but now the difference is night and day. Incredible work. Thank you so, so much.

Great improvement!

But there is a major downside - can not fly it in VR with hand controllers 😞

I like the smooth performence of this mod very much. But he DA62 in msfs always cannt landing with a large attitude .It is not easy to sink when flare.

I am not sure is it same to a true life DA62

I only flied twin enging plane da42 and pa44,both of them are easy to increase attitude and sink in flare.I think da62 should be same to them

Is there any way we can get the ice light (wing light) working again?

The mod works perfectly

and it looks really great.

Is it possible to make the overhead cabin temperature display work?

thanks for that

Hello . I have tried a thousand ways, copying, deleting, the last one removing ALL the mods and leaving only the DA62X in the Community folder, but I still don't see the gray triangle of this mod on any DA62 library. I have the Steam version and it hasn't happened to me with any other mod...

Same for me

Excuse my ignorance, but should this show up as a different aircraft in aircraft selection, or does the mod seamlessly integrate with the Asobo default DA62?

It integrates based on the livery. Livery with a grey triangle is the moded one.

Amazing mod and one of my favorites! However, the roll axis does not work with my Brunner force feedback stick (which uses an external program to control the sim). It works fine with my normal Virpil VPC WarBRD stick. Would you pls giude me on how to solve this issue?

I am trying to update from v0.9.1.1 to v0.10.0.0.0 but it keeps showing v0.9.1.1 after updating the file. I have deleted the old version twice, but it keeps showing the old version instead of the New Version.

i thought i forgot something :/

Mr.Tommy you rock! Thanks for the newest update fixing the starting bug and all your many other efforts in keeping this bird in first class condition.

I really like the mod, but I would like to know why when starting cold & dark the alternator switches are on and the fuel valves are open. I would expect alternator switches off and fuel valves closed, as they are in the default version.

in the RW DA62 and DA42 you never turn off the Alternator Switches. They are on and left on. As for the fuel Valves being closed i agree. but with no pump running leaving the valves open wouldn't be detrimental to the safety and upkeep of the aircraft.

Yes, the same problem.

Great job mrtommymxr. Thanks

toni250

The engines do not run, even after a manual start. Is there a problem?

i need more information than that to help you.

Are you running the new version?

Any other liveries or mods?

RSomerville

Love the mod, one problem: when increasing sim rate, engine rpm oscillates wildly.

MHUR

Does anyone know if its compatible with Your Controls cockpit sharing?
