[FONT=&quot]The P.149 is a very nice addon with many advanced functions, I am surprised that such a good job was done without finished SDK by Asbo/Microsoft. Im waiting for his An-2 too in MSFS. Crg for this release for developer.[/FONT]
 
Thanks for the HU.

That sure is a must have for me. Looks and handles superb.

It does indeed look wonderful, although that German scheme with invasion stripes is... just weird! :biggrin-new:

Many very nice shots.... Asobo lets everyone be an artist ; )) !

Btw. check this panel lamp (on front and top windshield - 100% animation with the light, wow!)
 
Looks fantastic but the video is a stutterfest. Hope that's the result of how the video was recorded/processed, and not an indication of how the airplane is going to perform in the sim. Any early buyers able to report?

EDIT: No performance issues reported on the MSFS forums, just some small first-version glitches (e.g. radios won't start on cold start, CTRL-E is required to get them going). Getting a really good reaction, so I'm ready to jump in.

Yes, I didnt notice any FPS impact in the sim (you have right about video). It works well for me too.
 
Well, it is crystal clear that it needs a patch to solve some issues. There are some flickering with the landing light glass, apart from the bugs already reported but it is a pleasure to fly. best 25 bucks spent in FS20.
For me, this is the first real commercial release for FS20.


It should be nice if they can add the dynamic registration to the model. It shouldn´t be too hard to implement as some less skilled developers already did it.
 
One note about the trim and the flight dynamics, if you have a controller that has a spare slider/lever, you can set that as an alternate pitch trim control (other than hat buttons) that will allow you to fine tune the pitch trim much faster than a hat button will react. I have the slider on my Warthog throttle set up for that but I had to roll back the sensitivity to -95 to make it to where changes in trim weren't so jumpy. Rapid pitch trim changes are really needed for the approach and landing phase as this model feels like a real aircraft of that size/weight range beginning to feel very nose heavy with the power off. Likewise, if you do a touch and go or go-around, you will have way too much up trim as the power comes in and need to rapidly re-trim down so you won't risk a departure stall. There is also a tendency for the model to roll slightly power-on. You can tame that by adding in rudder trim or manually holding on a bit of boot in the rudder. As you level off and set the manifold pressure and prop rpm, the torque bank/roll tendency will dissipate. It settles right in trim nicely. One other thing I saw, I did a simple aileron roll and the Attitude Indicator locked up (tumbled). Be sure to cage the AI before doing aerobatics!
 
I am interested. How deep is the simulation model? Especially regarding engine starts, etc. In the manual it looks like they copied the original checklists. Does it actually start on primer only with mixture in ICO?

Yes, it seems to be pretty deep even though the systems aren't that complex in general. Yes, it will start with the primer being pumped a few times and mixture in the Cutoff position but the mixture control automatically moves to Full Rich position on start without the assigned mixture control being manipulated.

Yeah, arguably the best addon aircraft in the small field of models available, worth every penny!

I totally agree. I was not going to buy another aircraft for fs2020 until the bugs got sorted. This is the best flyer so far. The attention to detail is amazing.
