Re: Elevator/Pitch Trim Stickiness
Thanks for the comments. Maybe I'm overly sensitive to the stickiness. To address a few items brought up in the comments: The delivery pilot/CFI specifically showed and explained the need to clean the damper with alcohol on a regular basis. The damper has been removed and adjusted per the factory sp...

Re: Elevator/Pitch Trim Stickiness
Jeff - thank you very much for the post. I recently took delivery of C015 and have definitely noticed a stickiness as well. However, no mention of the friction device and need to frequently clean the rod was made at the factory on delivery. Could I trouble you to request you post a picture or two o...

Elevator/Pitch Trim Stickiness
I have a DA62 which is serial number C.005, one of the first out of the London, Ontario plant. I have loved the plane for bit over a year now. One of the ongoing issues that I haven't yet seen discussed on this forum is regarding stickiness in the pitch trim. I know the procedure I've been taught in...

Re: Flightstream 510
Thanks for all the info everyone! Our plane is serial number 62.C005 manufactured in the London, Ontario facility. I'm not sure if that changes any of the potential wiring/hardware modifications mentioned, but I'll certainly be watching and hoping the capability becomes a reality in the near future!

Sorry if I missed it, but has Fightstream 510 ever been approved for the DA62? The last I heard about it was about a year ago. Thanks!!

Re: DA62 Anti Icing Performance
Thanks for the posts on this subject everyone. I have a new DA62 (45 days old), and collected about the same amount ice as seen in the pictures. The TKS protected areas remained predominantly free of ice. We did experience a slight airframe buffet, so were careful to maintain speed and limit control...

Re: New DA 62 Owners
Took delivery of my new DA62, N687DA, last week. It was the 2018 Canadian factory demonstrator and I'm loving it!! A few more hours of dual and I've met my insurance transition requirements
