This hardware architecture supports faster map rendering and smoother panning throughout the displays, wireless cockpit connectivity )including wireless database updates) using Garmin Fight Stream 510, and map overlays on the Horizontal Situation Indicator giving pilots a wealth of data at their fingertips. The Garmin G1000 NXi combines high-resolution display design with state-of-the art processors. These improvements provide faster boot up and software loading, while enabling the system to manage more aviation data and maps (such as visual approach plates).
AUTO DE-ICE
The In-Flight Ice Detection Advisory System is a new feature that operates as a backup in the event that the pilot fails to identify icing conditions or ice accretion. An ice detector based on frequency variations located at the top of the fin triggers the ice protection systems when icing conditions are detected if the pilot fails to identify icing conditions or ice accretion. When activated the system automatically arms the following systems: wings and tailplane pneumatic de-icing boots, propeller and electric de-icing, windshield electric de-icing, inertial particle separator.
New features are highlighted in red.

Auto De-Ice is introduced in serial #1270 & up.
Homesafe
Homesafe, based on Garmin’s award-winning emergency Autoland system, is a game-changing emergency system that automatically brings the airplane to a runway touchdown if the pilot becomes incapcitated. The system is activated manually by an easily recognizable orange button atop the cockpit instrument panel. Its software integrates weather and terrain information to select the best airport for landing, taking into account fuel range and runway length. The system provides inputs to the aircraft’s flight controls and adjusts engine power settings throughout the touchdown phase. It will activate the brakes on roll-out and shut down the engine after a full stop. The pilot can override the Autoland function at any time to resume normal flight conditions by simply disconnecting the autopilot
AUTO THROTTLE
The autothrottle encompassed in the TBM is the first ever automated throttle installed on a production turboprop aircraft in the TBM weight category. The autothrottle integrated system integrates the engine power control and monitoring. Fully-integrated with the autopilot and linked to a smart engine gauge on the Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, this single power lever can be used from climb-out to landing approach. During the climb phase. the pilot no longer needs to continuously adjust the throttle to reach the optimum torque. Climb to cruise transitions as well as setting with inertial separator activated are anticipated and smoothed by the autothrottle system. It also optimizes the cruise, adjusting automatically to the mode selected or to the active user’s profile settings.
GWX-75 WEATHER RADAR
The GWX-75R is a fully digital and highly intuitive radar with advanced technology that gives pilots the ability to depict weather with a much greater degree of detail while exerting much less effort. The GWX-75R offers a high-definition color palette with up to 4 times more colors than traditional radar with detailed contouring of storm cells, full antenna stabilization w ith horizontal scan angles up to 120 degrees, optional turbulence detection and ground clutter suppression, and a real-time depiction of geographical features to aid in visual navigation via the ground mapping mode. The GWX-75R is a state-of-the art weather radar that offers advanced features both technologically and visually. It is substantially easier to operate and far more reliable than magnetron-based radars. The upgraded features and functionality of the GWX-75R allows pilots to intuitively assess in-flight weather like a pro.

Auto De-Ice is introduced in serial #1270 & up.
HARTZELL RAPTOR® 5-BLADE COMPOSITE PROPELLER
The five-blade Raptor composite propeller, built by Hartzell Propeller, is fully integrated into the propulsion system. It has been specifically designed to reduce overall weight and improve the TBM-960s takeoff distance, climb, and cruise speed. Turning at 1,925 rpm during maximum power output, the Raptor contributes to limiting noise and vibration. Its sound level during takeoff is just 76.4 decibels, meeting the most stringent international noise standards. This makes the TBM-960 a “smooth operator” wherever it flies, maintaining the low-profile footprint of Daher’s TBM family.
EPECS
From the propeller to its turbine parameters, the PT6E-66XT’s control is provided by a master system: the Engine and Propeller Electronic Control System (EPECS). This optimizes the powerplant’s performance throughout the flight envelope while reducing pilot workload by integrating all functions and protecting the engines life. Features include easier engine power management and parameter analysis. The power lever is now an e-throttle, using a single forward position from takeoff to landing - with the EPECS optimizing the power settings and automatically monitoring turbine temperature limits. Additionally, the Fuel Control Unit (FCU) and Propeller Control Unit (PCU) are now electromechanical (instead of hydromechanical), managing engine parameters based on settings defined by the EPECS.
PRATT & WHITNEY PT6E-66XT ENGINE
The TBM-960 is equipped with the PT6E-66XT turboprop engine, which is Pratt & Whitney Canada’s latest addition to the iconic PT6 family. The powerplants simple design offers easy maintenance, efficiency, low operational costs, and is covered by one of the industry’s most extensive support networks. It raises the bar in terms of engine performance, control systems, data intelligence, and service solutions.
