VSKYLABS Aerospace Simulations has updated their Tecnam P2006T Project to V6.0. It sees many changes, including changes to the electrical system, flight dynamics, avionics, and more.
The full changelog was posted at the end of March:
- Electrical system overhaul: fully separated electrical bus system with functional bus-tie operations. Alternators/generators operation loads were tuned up as well. (note: this update new electrical system layout will include a reduced electrical system with only two electrical buses + battery bus. System consumers are divided into the buses accordingly).
- Autopilot operation redesigned and re-wired into the electrical system; autopilot master switch is now functioning as expected, on the ground and in the air.
- Cockpit rocker switches are now lighted! they are electrically powered, enabled by the proper switch in the cockpit RH front panel.
- ADF/Transponder display is brighter and clearer.
- Engines systems were tuned up – CHT and oil-temp behavior, along with a new engine cooler algorithm. In addition, damage algorithm was added to engines operations and operating the Rotax 912’s out of their allowed limits will result in engine fire.
- VR manipulators tune-up.
- Flight dynamics COMPLETE overhaul, along with X-Plane 11.30 updated airfoils (this project is designed to work with the stable flight model environment of X-Plane 11.30+).
- Preset algorithm for systems pre-flight state in cold and dark was added.
- STMA Autoupdater was added. Future updates will be pushed automatically to all pilots!
Videos of a Vmca test and tyre damage simulation have also been shared:
Both the analogue and G1000 variants have been updated. You can check out the project’s main page on their website here.
