Just flipped through the gallery on the Alabeo site, and man o' man this one sure looks pretty. Anyone yet have an opinion on how well the FDE is done? I'm leaning towards picking this one up.

Too slow for my liking but looks great!

I was about to spend some of my hard earned and their site is down!

I have a little bit of time in a Sportscruiser, so am kind of tempted to purchase this as besides Warbirds have a liking for LSAs. Have about 80 hours in Eurostars.

But, wasn't that happy with the Staggerwing (personal reasons of course, having flown one about 3 hours), so might wait a while before I think about purchasing the Sportscruiser. Looks very nice though. But then again my normal mount in FSX, is their Sukhoi SU26, which I adore and must have over 200 hours in!

Cheers,

Martin

Martin: If you like the Alabeo SU-26, have a look at the new A1R Yak-50.

I just got the Alabeo Piper Sport, it's beautiful in and out, I think it has the best panel that Alabeo has done yet.

Cheers for that....already bought the Yak-50! And will probably, go for the Sportscruiser in due course, but think can wait a while.

Thanks,

Martin

The Yak looks like freeware, yet priced like an Alabeo. Guess, I'll never understand that.

Do you have the A1R Yak 50? From a visual perspective it looks excellent and is a favourite in my hangar.

Each to their own of course, but the A1R Yak-50 is on my 'might buy' list. It looks pretty darn good, from what I can tell in screenshots, and the feature list is fairly impressive. There's not a whole lot of freeware that comes close, and I really didn't think $20 some bucks was over priced. The only reason I haven't bought it yet is that it's not really the usual type of plane I fly in my sim...

Back to the Alabeo bird - I still think it looks great too, but I think I need to wait for a few opinions on how well it flies.

Ok. Sorry if I offended anyone. I wish Alabeo did the bigger brother to the Sukhoi Su-26, the Su-29, which is a two seater and made it cockpit-shareable. Now that would be pretty awesome.

I'm talking about this..

 

[JimmyRFR]

Ok. Sorry if I offended anyone.

No offense taken here. I was just kind of surprised, since the A1R Yak looks pretty spiffy to me. Of course, Alabeo / Carenado has the texturing part down to a fine science, very few addon's come close to their work and the Yak might not be quite to that standard, but it seems fairly close.

It would be pretty cool if Alabeo did the Su-29, but only if they produced a FDE that matched their excellent textures.

someone else has this problem with gps fonts?

 

[adi518]

Post it to Alabeo's FB page or send them an email. The font is probably define too big.

I'm not having the problem your having, everything is within the box. Wish I could help, but I don't have any idea how to fix it.

 

[Roger]

Likewise I do not have this font issue. I'd post a screenshot but fsfiles.org is still down.

 

[Maury2008]

Thank you, though I sent a message to Alabeo support , and in the meantime I solved by changing the size of the text in the html file of gps

Does it have the parachute system simulated?

 

[bstolle]

Don't know. I've never looked for this 'feature' as this is much more a flightsimulator than a crashsimulator.
