Connaître l'avion
The Beechcraft Duke combined turbocharged piston engines with a pressurised cabin and retractable landing gear. Its swept-looking tail and compact low-wing airframe give it a distinctive outline. It entered the market between smaller touring twins and turbine-powered business aircraft.
Royal Turbine conversions replace the piston engines with PT6 turboprops, creating a materially different aircraft. Black Square models both branches with different engine behaviour while sharing a broad selection of period and modern navigation equipment. Its systems and performance differ between the piston and turbine versions.

A piston Duke and time with friends
Rankin's first Duke flight formed part of his 2017 project to experience 52 aircraft in 52 weeks. The Navy pilot joined owner Chris Phillips and fellow pilot Brett Taylor for an outing from Gulf Shores, Alabama. The aircraft's appearance had attracted him before boarding, and he found the piston-powered, pressurised twin smooth and comfortable once they were airborne. The equipped cockpit and passenger cabin suited the relaxed transport role he describes.
What stayed with him most was the company. Rankin knew Phillips through another interest: turning discarded aircraft parts into furniture. Taylor helped with that work, but the Duke outing was their first flight together. Rankin felt the aeroplane left them enough attention to enjoy talking and spending time together.
The prototype turbine conversion climbs away from Truckee
Cox flew the Royal Turbine development aircraft with Darwin Conrad from Truckee-Tahoe, a high-elevation airport in California. With three people and approximately half fuel aboard, the climb was the immediate surprise. He reported reaching 23,000 feet only minutes after departure, then allowing the aeroplane to accelerate in smooth air until its indicated speed and temperature gave a calculated 301 knots true airspeed. These were observations of the prototype before the conversion's anticipated certification.
During the descent, Conrad suggested evaluating it with the right engine shut down and its propeller feathered. Cox describes trimming the aircraft and finding considerable remaining speed on the operating engine. The flight made the increase in performance tangible, while the existing Duke cabin and pressurisation system still defined its accommodation at altitude. It should be read as a flight in that early conversion, with the later approved configuration considered separately.
Fast acceleration, a rapid climb and a manageable arrival
Bedell flew two Royal Turbine sorties from Spokane's Felts Field. The first supported air-to-air photography, after which Darwin Conrad demonstrated the conversion's asymmetric handling. Bedell took the left seat for a second flight to check its high-altitude performance. The takeoff demanded attention: the engines did not accelerate identically, power needed careful setting and the aircraft gathered speed very quickly. A continuous climb then carried them to 28,000 feet in twelve minutes.
He found the descent and approach more manageable than that initial rush might suggest. The aircraft could slow using its landing gear and flaps with relatively small trim changes, and his own first landing used little runway, although he did not match Conrad's earlier demonstration. He also noted the limits of the original pressurisation system at high altitude and the difficulty of remaining below the indicated-speed limit down low. His enthusiasm for the turbine Duke includes those practical constraints, alongside its climb, quietness and responsive handling.

Beechcraft Turbine Duke
Free + ProMSFS 2024MSFS 2020
The Beechcraft Duke combined turbocharged piston engines with a pressurised cabin and retractable landing gear. Its swept-looking tail and compact low-wing airframe give it a distinctive outline. It entered the market between smaller touring twins and turbine-powered business aircraft.
This starting point selects Beechcraft Turbine Duke. Its aircraft-level settings do not select a particular developer’s custom systems.
Spring resistance builds with the selected airspeed response. A separate aerodynamic term adds speed-dependent control load.
Valid trim provides the configured pressure relief. Autopilot following is enabled for supported control references.
Controls and trim
Black Square publishes separate Piston and Turbine Duke manuals. The piston B60 and Grand Duke performance package differ from the PT6 turbine conversion and its propeller systems. Both guides describe Century IV installations, including a pitch-attitude roller. Trim power affects servo operation; a pitch-attitude command is not a hardware-neutral position, and the flight director can remain active after autopilot disconnection.
About the values
The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.
Master gain & control system
Master gain85%
L'échelle globale finale appliquée à tout ce que produit le modèle, avant la limite du périphérique.
Plus : tout (ressort, charges, effets) se renforce ensemble.
Moins : tout s'adoucit ensemble.
Pourquoi ici : Scales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits.
Forces
Spring strength74%
La force de rappel de base qui ramène le manche au neutre. Toutes les autres forces s'empilent dessus. Trop faible, le manche paraît mou en vol normal ; trop forte, elle lutte contre la main et masque les signaux plus fins.
Plus : un centrage plus ferme qui résiste davantage à la main.
Moins : un manche plus mou qui ne compte que sur la charge aérodynamique.
Pourquoi ici : The named Duke's yoke response is independent of its piston or turbine engine cues; conversion identity does not calibrate control force. The baseline spring is 0.74. Its low-speed blend reaches baseline strength at 90 KIAS.
Turbine Duke manualPiston Duke manualSpring deadband5%
Une petite zone neutre autour du centre où le ressort reste muet, pour que les micro-mouvements à l'arrêt ne vibrent pas. Plus large, c'est plus calme mais plus lâche ; plus étroite, plus précis mais parfois nerveux au neutre.
Plus : un centre plus calme mais plus lâche, avec plus de jeu.
Moins : un centre plus serré qui peut vibrer au repos.
Pourquoi ici : Sets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner.
Overall aerodynamic load68%
Une échelle maîtresse sur les deux charges d'axe, appliquée avant leur équilibre individuel. Les profils la laissent en général en place et règlent les deux axes.
Plus : les deux axes chargent plus fort.
Moins : les deux axes s'allègent ensemble.
Pourquoi ici : The aerodynamic-load gain is 0.68 with an indicated-speed reference of 210 KIAS. This supplies speed-dependent loading alongside the spring.
Airspeed blendingTrue
Active la fenêtre d'engagement basse vitesse du ressort (début/plein en nœuds ci-dessus). Désactivé, le ressort est constant à toute vitesse.
Pourquoi ici : Allows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it.
Low-speed spring floor55%
La part du ressort qui survit à l'arrêt, avant que la vitesse ne crée la moindre force aérodynamique. Un plancher haut garde le manche ferme au parking ; un plancher bas donne le jeu de câbles d'un avion léger au parking.
Plus : un manche plus ferme au parking et au roulage.
Moins : un manche mou au parking qui ne s'éveille qu'avec la vitesse.
Pourquoi ici : Sets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength.
Spring engagement start20 kt
La vitesse à laquelle le ressort quitte son plancher basse vitesse vers la pleine raideur : le début du réveil des commandes au roulage de décollage.
Pourquoi ici : Sets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit.
Spring engagement full90 kt
La vitesse où le ressort atteint sa pleine raideur. Entre le début et ce point, le centrage se raffermit avec le vent relatif.
Pourquoi ici : Sets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it.
Vitesse de réglage des forces210
La vitesse indiquée où la charge aérodynamique atteint son niveau de conception. Elle ancre toute la courbe au domaine réel : un 172 charge dès 110 nœuds, un jet bien plus tard.
Plus : les charges arrivent plus tard ; le manche reste léger jusqu'à plus vite.
Moins : les charges arrivent plus tôt et la croisière pèse davantage.
Pourquoi ici : Sets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit.
Centre firmness vs speed10%
Combien le centrage lui-même se raidit avec la vitesse, en plus des charges de braquage. Zéro garde un centre constant ; plus fait centrer dur en croisière et souple en tour de piste.
Plus : un centre qui durcit nettement avec la vitesse.
Moins : une sensation de centre constante à toute vitesse.
Pourquoi ici : The high-speed spring-stiffening gain is 0.1. It strengthens the permitted spring response above 90 KIAS, with the squared-speed ratio capped at 5.
Centre stiffening cap5
La limite haute du raidissement lié à la vitesse, pour que le vol très rapide ne remonte pas le ressort sans borne.
Plus : plus de raidissement total permis à haute vitesse.
Moins : le raidissement se bride plus tôt.
Pourquoi ici : Limits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap.
Aileron load72%
La charge de roulis soutenue issue du braquage d'ailerons et de la vitesse, équilibrée indépendamment du tangage. Avec la charge de profondeur, elle fixe l'harmonie des commandes dont parlent les essais.
Plus : des efforts de roulis plus lourds.
Moins : des ailerons plus légers, plus vifs.
Pourquoi ici : Roll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 0.72 and 1, respectively. They set the aerodynamic axis balance. No custom spring-travel curve is enabled.
Elevator load100%
La charge de tangage soutenue issue du braquage de profondeur et de la vitesse, équilibrée indépendamment du roulis. Le levier principal du poids en tangage d'un type. Il ne touche ni ailerons, ni ressort, ni trim, ni buffet.
Plus : des efforts de tangage soutenus plus lourds en vitesse.
Moins : une profondeur plus légère, moins musclée à tenir.
Pourquoi ici : Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.
Max output force55%
Un plafond par force stable de tangage ou roulis avant le périphérique : la garde contre le claquement ou la saturation du matériel en manœuvre forte.
Plus : des pics de force stable plus élevés avant écrêtage.
Moins : un plafond plus doux ; les manœuvres dures s'aplatissent plus tôt.
Pourquoi ici : Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.
Trim
Trim relief (elevator)30%
Combien le trim de profondeur soulage l'effort tenu et déplace le point de repos du manche. À 100 %, un avion bien compensé ne demande aucune pression : le geste réel de compenser la charge.
Plus : le trim retire plus d'effort tenu ; à 100 %, plein trim l'annule.
Moins : vous continuez à tenir de l'effort même compensé.
Pourquoi ici : Pitch-trim relief follows valid trim input as a chosen approximation; Century IV attitude commands are a separate control quantity. Pitch authority 0.3 provides load relief and permitted centre movement; roll authority is 0.14.
Turbine Duke manualPiston Duke manualTrim relief (aileron)14%
Le même soulagement pour le trim de roulis. La plupart des avions légers n'ont pas de vrai trim d'ailerons, donc zéro ; les types qui en ont reçoivent une valeur adaptée.
Plus : le trim de roulis retire plus d'effort tenu.
Moins : le trim de roulis fait moins.
Pourquoi ici : Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.
Effect gains · Ground
Runway rumble42%
Vibration de roulement issue de la vitesse des roues et du revêtement : la texture du bitume, de l'herbe ou du gravier sous le train.
Plus : une texture de surface plus forte dans le manche.
Moins : un roulage plus lisse.
Pourquoi ici : Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.
Gear bumps32%
Chocs courts et distincts des joints, ornières et surfaces rugueuses : la ponctuation au-dessus du grondement continu.
Plus : des chocs plus nets des joints et ornières.
Moins : des détails de sol plus doux.
Pourquoi ici : Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.
Effect gains · Airframe
Stall buffet28%
Buffet de cellule à l'approche du décrochage et pendant l'avertisseur : la voix de cette aile quand elle est mécontente. Les types à décrochage franc reçoivent un buffet modéré, le klaxon porte l'alerte.
Plus : un tremblement pré-décrochage plus fort.
Moins : une aile plus discrète ; le klaxon porte l'alerte.
Pourquoi ici : Sets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings.
Mach buffet0%
Buffet transsonique près de la limite de Mach. Parlant pour les jets près de MMO, zéro pour pistons et turbopropulseurs qui n'y vont jamais.
Plus : un buffet transsonique plus fort près de la limite de Mach.
Moins : un vol plus lisse à haut Mach.
Pourquoi ici : Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.
Flap buffet14%
Vibration basse fréquence de cellule avec les volets dans le vent, dans la fenêtre où ils travaillent vraiment l'air.
Plus : un vol plus rugueux volets au travail.
Moins : des volets d'approche plus doux.
Pourquoi ici : Sets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate.
Gear buffet10%
Le tambourinement du train rentrant sorti dans le flux. Zéro pour les trains fixes, dont la cellule ne change jamais de forme.
Plus : plus de tambourinement train sorti.
Moins : un vol train sorti plus propre.
Pourquoi ici : Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.
Stick shaker50%
Le vibreur de manche dédié, déclenché par l'avertisseur de décrochage de l'avion. Seuls les types à vrai vibreur reçoivent une valeur ; les autres comptent sur buffet et klaxon.
Plus : un vibreur plus dur.
Moins : un vibreur plus discret.
Pourquoi ici : Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.
Effect gains · Engine, mechanical & drag
Touchdown thump82%
Le coup unique au toucher, proportionnel au taux de chute : un kiss se murmure, une arrivée ferme cogne.
Plus : un coup plus dur au toucher.
Moins : des arrivées plus douces.
Pourquoi ici : Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.
Reverse rumble48%
Vibration de roulage sous inversion de poussée ou plage bêta. Zéro pour les types sans reverse.
Plus : un roulage plus rugueux sous reverse.
Moins : une reverse plus discrète.
Pourquoi ici : Sets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue.
Engine rumble6%
Vibration continue du moteur suivant le régime du ralenti à la pleine puissance : le rappel permanent que quelque chose brûle du carburant devant.
Plus : plus de moteur dans le manche.
Moins : un moteur plus discret.
Pourquoi ici : Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.
Flap motion12%
Vibration continue seulement pendant que le simulateur signale les volets réellement en mouvement. Elle suit la course réelle et les pannes, pas un minuteur estimé.
Plus : plus de vibration volets en mouvement.
Moins : des courses de volets plus discrètes.
Pourquoi ici : Sets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue.
Autopilot follow
AP follow authority10%
Jusqu'où les ordres du pilote automatique peuvent bouger le manche physique. Minuscule dans MSFS, où un axe déplacé peut être relu comme entrée pilote ; zéro coupe le suivi.
Plus : le pilote automatique bouge visiblement plus votre manche.
Moins : un suivi à peine perceptible.
Pourquoi ici : Sets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply.
