I'm waiting to hear how it is in VR...their C17 is still cursed with huge cartoon-scaled cockpit/MFDs in VR, for which they say they don't have a fix yet, 6 (?) months later.
I asked on their Discord whether it had been tested in VR (it amazes me how many developers don't) and the reply was 'No, it's not an issue'.
Which could mean No they haven't tested and don't care or they 'believe' it will be OK or ?

We (BB + Miltech) have temporarily pulled the product while we fix a couple of things on our side. Hope to have it back on sale asap, and by end of day at the latest.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
If you grabbed it already, you'll get an update email with the new build later today.

Also at iniBuilds too for £28.99.

You can also get the Mission Hub for £12.49 unless you get the bundle, where you get the Mission Hub for £9.00 (£45.59 inc GB VAT).

I only took her up for a quick spin, but over all I quite like what I've seen so far, modelling looks lovely, etc.

You'll also have to copy the serial number that comes with your order & paste it into one of the screens while in the cockpit, pretty easy.

Not had a chance to look at the Mission Hub yet.

Cheapest for me from Miltech direct, 39 GBP for the bundle, including VAT
Performance in FS24 is pretty dire for me so I'll probably stick to FS20 for now.
****** There is a low-VRAM version about to be released that addresses this problem :) *****

Can I switch off Bitchin' Betty? Constantly squawking PULL UP or ROLL LEFT whenever flying gets interesting!
Height callouts on landing are very nice however :)
