FS20 file system is very fragile. Mods can interfere with eachother very easily. Please double, tripple check your community folder before posting. 99% of problems have been fixed simply by removing some other old mod. Also please delete the whole DA62X folder before updating.
Before posting, please check the FAQ and Changelog!!
This mod aims to improve the default DA62 in as many aspects as possible.Also included is a modified checklist that takes into account missing features and a quick rundown of the added systems (G1000, FADEC and Anti-Ice)
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)
- Engines will overheat and catch fire if pushed too hard
- 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
- Cruise speeds and climb rates more closely match AFM numbers
- 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)
- Added ice flutter
Systems
- Custom Anti-Ice system with modes, endurance and weight (Check PDF for more info)
- Redone electrical system (partially)
- 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 with the MD302X mod
- Improved autopilot PIDs with correct lateral and vertical limitations*
- Garmin ESP (beta). Hold Gear/fire test for 3 seconds to toggle
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
- I Recommend these liveries from BilingualHarp7. They are specifically made to be compatible with the DA62X
Other
- Fuel totaliser can be reset using the ELT
- Added Debugging CAS messages to help figuring out mod compatibility (FAQ)
Todo:
- *Add/fix feathering animations (im not capable of this). Props may turn slowly when feathered
- VMC and spin behavior (when tail stalling is added)
Thanks for the help <3:

Currently the NXi is locked to “Lean” and “System” pages, where it should be “System” and “Fuel” for the diamonds. I am obviously aware of this. Whenever it’s possible to change this, it will be done. Fuel totaliser from them will also be used later
While you are here, could you please upvote this bug and raise awareness.
Thank you

Hi! I tried to make a flight recently, but the plane somehow does not want to accept my altitudes, altitude select knob is broken, had a similar issue with the TBM improvement mod. Anyone have the same issue lately?

*UPDATE: I just checked the default Asobo DA62, it has the same problem. Eventually they will get it fixed

Specifically, update 7 produces flickering on MFD at all zooms?
CptCharlie130
With update 7, G1000 Nxi flickers like mad in low zoom?

The increase up & down selector is other way around, meaning opposite.....hmmm

hey i saw the moveable armrest and thought it would be cool to add openable doors! could you do that? 😊

This is working for me in su7. The only issue I'm running into (far as I can tell anyway) is Working Title G1000 NXi is having some issue with loading in approaches. I'm not having the issues others are describing such as the plane not loading. I did delete all mods except for this one though, perhaps the others are running into other mods causing issues with this one.
AntCar
Can confirm this mod prevents from loading into a flight in SU7, hope it can be fixed, it's a really nice addon 😊

I found this to only be an issue with other add on liveries. Try the default or a different uploaders livery. See if that helps
GeorgePaiva
Great Work!
When i select FLC mode (AutoPilot G1000NXI) and i try to put 89 kt as climb speed, the minimus i can get is 90... Why? The G1000 Recomend 89kt but i can't do this... Using the default aircraft i got it.

Ask diamond, i didnt make those numbers up
Energizer23
Love the upgrade! I Think a cold dark start with oxygen, alternators and fuel off would be great. Thanks for the improvement!
bananajungle 10 day(s) ago
normal procedure on DA42/62 is to leave the fuel ON and also the Alternators after shut down.
Alternators are kept on, since they are driven by the engine regardless of the switch position. It only regulates if the alternator is online or offline, which in the end doesn't affect engine performance.

I don't know if the plane is the problem or the GTN750 mod I use for GPS, but every time the plane's climbing - with FLC mode - it sometimes just goes into a 2-5 second nose dive and then back up. While not the end of the world, this is certainly annoying. Is this issue known? Or is it just me who's having this problem?
ForzaElite
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but the ESP system doesn't seem to deactivate correctly, I need to turn it off for landings because I can't flare properly as it noses down when it senses the slow speed. The trim also stays at a high nose down level and makes recovery more difficult.
mrtommymxr 16 day(s) ago
its disabled below 200ft so it should not affect your landing flare. (unless i goofed)
IRL it uses servos, ingame we have to use trim.
Dillon
Can't get the left engine to start... The master switch just kills the whole start sequence on that engine causing the right Garmin screen to flash with each try.
TugboatCaptain 18 day(s) ago
I've been having the same issue for a while now. Any solution?
Boestro 14 day(s) ago
same
CaptEEEE 6 day(s) ago
Haven’t had that issue and I’ve flown this one a ton, always starting cold and dark. Have you tried removing all mods and only having this one added to see if it helps? Maybe it’s another causing a compatibility issue.
Dillon 5 day(s) ago
Not sure what your saying here. Of course the plane works without issue without this mod. The point here is to let the mod developer know there's an issue.
Dillon
Thanks so much for getting this update out!
Doublelaunch
Great job again ! Many thanks for the update
Just one minor issue (change ?)...
The yellow "AUX FUEL E" message is gone in 0.6 (WT NXi installed)
mrtommymxr 21 day(s) ago
ehh...uhh..... maybe?
nah, will be fixed next update
Tailhook
Throttles got nuked with 0.6 and unsyncable now with YourControls. The Lvar's refuse to be set and glitch to 0 under any throttle movement.
mrtommymxr 21 day(s) ago
I didn't touch the power levers
Tailhook 19 day(s) ago
The throttles now rely on Throttle1_pos and Throttle2_pos Lvar's and refuse to be set. Clients now just show glitching throttles with a small power up and then back to idle. Not ideal for shared pit.
Tailhook 14 day(s) ago
Fixed the issue on our end, but please god get rid of the flashing PROP AXIS message.
WaarEagle
Thanks for the update! Just curious... what does the 62cockpit.txt file do? It's included in the root of the archive along with the documentation.
Garack
woa nice update
taronov
Thank you very much for the continued work on the mod! I absolutely love your work!
fauzimarzuki
The FLC function is the other way around...speed UP is down! speed DOWN is up!...hope the developer can look into this small issue. Tq
CaptEEEE 22 day(s) ago
From a labeling perspective, the buttons are labeled "nose up" "nose dn" so logically it makes sense that if you push nose up/dn, even if in flc mode, that the nose would go up/dn. Granted, I'm just a sim pilot IDK how it is in real life, but seems like it's correct.
CaptEEEE
This just keeps getting better and better! Definitely my favorite plane to fly. Thanks so much for your work on this!
