Carenado Phenom is out!

Gulfstream won't allow their aircraft to be modeled in FS.

Well as I'm sure you will note....the "Cessna" aircraft that carenado and Alebeo are doing.....have no "CESSNA" names on them. Trust me...if someone wants to do a "GULFSTREAM" they can do it and not call it one.....its being done all the time. As long as their company name isn't on it......seems to be the way its being done.
 
Having had experience in this from a developer standpoint, it also depends on how far the company want to take it. Most companies protect their trademarks in terms of logos and branding, however some also enforce the design work, ie, any aircraft which significantly resembles their product also comes under their trademarks.

Gulfstream may have a blanket protection of not just their business logos and branding, but also the likeness of their product, ie their aircraft.
 
These are taken in P3D...but you get the idea...looks essentially the same in FSX

It is a bit of a fps hog. In DX10, it will drop to 15 fps. Mostly runs around 25. Good looking aircraft. Can't seem to adjust the pitch trim, but need to read the manual.

OK, just tried in DX9. FPS 7 to 9. So it would appear this sim is optimized for DX10 and most likely P3D. It does look better in DX10 on my machine.

That's a nice looking glacier there in the background Mr D. Which scenery is that from if you don't mind me asking?
 
Carenado positioning...?

Very smooth on my system and no FPS drop

I have the F1 Cessna Mustang which is excellent, but heavy on frames and the Feel there Phenom 100 which is crap but good on frames. Was hoping for something in between. Is there somebody with a similar fleet composition ? Comments appreciated. Thanks
 
Hello YoYosim,

Thank for this imppressve video. It is hard to see the difference between the real and the virtual airplane. Have a good day
