A heck of a price tag! Are there any pireps available ?:indecisiveness:
 
It's a shame that the replica project ended in tragedy. This looks interesting...

Edit - after watching the videos, I think I'll pass - especially for the price. It's the sounds for me. It sounds more like one big radial than a pair of straight 8's.* (The replica was powered by a pair of Hayabusa bike engines.) On shutdown, the blades come to a screeching halt even before the combustion sounds end, and then there's still sounds of the engines slowing. If the sounds were more convincing, it would be a nice little Grand Canyon runner.

From the systems side, this is study level. I know the 100P and the replica very well. And yes - the Wwise sounds are based of Redwing Super Constellation I gathered. But it bring loops in and out, that is anoying and not real like a straigt 8 cylinder. Another thing is a texture issue. The canopy is outside too dark and inside in VC with too much glance, that make it imposssible to look outside depending sun states. I hope Redwing will fix this soon.

Anyway, it is a wonderful rendition of history.
 
I'm really glad they made this, but that's a P3D price, not MSFS. I'd have snapped it up at $20.

Wishlisted and hope they eventually put it on sale.
 
Should have done this yesterday... Since it's a new release with historical significance, I'll stick it until there's no reply for a week, or two weeks max.
 
I have a lot of fun flying this nice realization. Especially landings are a challenge. Now I've lent a hand myself to do some texture work. Earlier I published the work at flightsim.com.

This repaint of Avions N° 001 features more transparent canopy with less reflection. a little deeper blue on exterior, better blurred propeller display, pure metal cardan shaft housing and seat and less red rosewood in cockpit.

Do you have any cockpit pictures? How fast does it fly?

Redwing did a wonderful job. All systems work with the historical background. A 51-page manual is included and describes the functions and gives a nice impression also the special features of the aircraft.

About the speed. I flew out and back on a 100 km course (200 km with turning maneuver) and came up with an average speed of 666 km/h at 12,000 ft (414 mph). I used the normal mode.

It should be noted, however, that we will still be getting a cell competition plane. The current version is e.g. too heavy (has lights, radios, battery etc.).

How is the sound pack?
