Just got it from the FS2020 marketplace, am about to test fly it, more on it later.

Screenshots look amazing, but I think I'll hold off until a few reviews are in.

It is an excellent model, flies well, nothing serious jumped out at me other than the Approach Hold is a little buggy, it tracks in on the localizer in a wide arc (shallow bank) to the outer marker resulting in a bit of an abrupt glideslope capture. When I tried to arm the approach hold a little closer the the beam, it overshot. It's a minor gripe on an otherwise nice model.

Hmm... How different does it feel from the TBM 930? Not a class of plane I fly a lot, but I haven't gone wrong with a Carenado purchase so far. (Plus I just need them to get to the darn T-34, so gotta keep them in business.)
For the life of me, I can't get the Engine Condition assigned to an axis. i have tried, Mixture, Condition set, etc. nothing works.
On another note, I was able to sit in the right seat for a PC-12 flight from Anchorage to Lake Iliamna. What a blast that was.

jmig, the condition lever for this model is coded to the Mixture control setting and is preset to move back and forth via mouse click or button/switch assignment. Any 3 position spring loaded momentary switch on a controller will work; hat switch or standard toggle switch that sits neutral in the middle but you can rock it back and forth for the 3 positions of the condition lever. The way it is coded, it won't work with a slider lever as far as I can tell.

Thanks for the info. After reading your post I went rooting with A&O's LVAR viewer. I found two LVARS that showed variable changes when moving the control in-game. However, neither worked when assigned to a switch. I got frustrated and quit for the day. I will ruminate and later try again.
I love this airplane. It was my go to in PD3 and seems better in MSFS. But, I am having great dificulty moving the dang lever with the mouse in VR.
