For about $23.- you can have a 737 MAX that's been ported over.
Is it worth getting your fix now as you wait..?
There are other videos available.

But... Why did he start both engines at once, and before all the ground services were done? The catering truck should have been blown over on its side, and the luggage was at risk of being sucked into the other engine!
 
Borrowed gauges

Can anyone confirm that this 737 is actually using MSFS premium 787 and 747 gauges..?
Not including them in the product, just merging them from the base MSFS installation.
 
While having the following issue in mind

https://fselite.net/news/beware-of-the-abad-studios-scam/

I personnally would be very careful in which addons I invest my money, especially if there is more or less nothing stated about the basis of development of a new aircraft.

If I additionally see the assessments of the addon airport Hamburg (EDDH) from the same developer and having a look to their site (https://www.bredok3d.com/), for me it's clear to better invest my money somewhere else. :culpability:
 
I would hope that a legit product isn't being tarnished here without evidence. What does this have to do with Abad?

Sorry for being critical. I just said, that I would be careful. I never stated that the product isn't legit, but for buying decision the presentation of a developer plays a big role for me. Was the plane created from scratch; is it a port-over of an existing product and if yes, which one; what is the basis for the cockpit? These information I don't find neither on the developer's site, nor e.g. at Simmarket.

Your money, your choice...my money, my choice. :untroubled:
 
There's a repaint category for it over at flightsim.to, with this disclaimer: "This category is for the Third Party Aircraft BREDOK3D BOEING 737-MAX by BREDOK3D. This plane is additional payware, being sold on Third-Party stores. Due to serious concerns about its quality and legality, we won't share a purchase link for this plane." Enough said.
 
While the quality of this addon is indeed a bit on the low side, I would encourage people here to read a few more reviews about it, especially considering this plane is around 20 euros only.
There's a very interesting discussion about it over at avsim. The few educated people who bought it reported that the quality/price ratio is actually higher than expected.

From what I understood so far, the author of the plane actually bough some 3D models for exterior and cockpit from external 3rd party 3D model creators, then compiled them into an MSFS model, and added some avionics based on the default Boeing 787 (avionics/gauges are also included into the standard version of MSFS, not only the premium deluxe). The plane is supposed to reach the marketplace soon too, which might indicate the plane is completely legit.
It will be interesting to see how this plane evolves, both with the future updates from the author, and eventual updates from the community.
 
Lights in action

Night lights and effects, fairly impressive.

Thanks for posting this. Definitely help clear up some bad gouge and insinuations about the product on multiple forums.
 
I seem to be falling down on the job here. I guess it happens when you start a new (real) job after 10 months of sitting on your but due to a COVID layoff...

Yes, Abad was a real debacle, and might have left a bad taste in more than a few mouths. Yes, there have been some legality concerns over this addon. But it seems that they've answered those concerns on their entry at simMarket. As for their "Home Page," it looks like they've picked up a WordPress template and are just getting started. I'd say give Bredok3d a chance and see if they improve. If they're actually in violation of MS terms, then I'm betting they'll get shut down by some pretty expensive lawyers.

I have to say, for an add-on that was obviously rushed out, the updates and support have been pretty impressive.

Anyone here flying it? With the fixes and updates, it looks like it’s getting somewhat more solid...
