Rollus - CARGO 400M

Anyone who buys this model, please advise if you are having any issues with the sim pausing/freezing or any other minor stutters when flying it. I thought my defrag operation helped with that problem but what I found out was that the issue still occurs but towards the end of a cross-country flight of 100 NM or more. I also noticed that after ending a flight with the A400M, FSX takes far more time to return to home screen than normal and an abnormal amount of time to shut down and un-cache when exiting the sim. It makes me think there is a memory issue or perhaps the model is using excessive VAS. If you have such issues, email Roland in his support email and please advise here so I can keep track of anyone else having the same issue.
 
I picked this up after I got home today. I managed to figure everything out in about an hour switching from the PDF to the pit and back. After hearing firsthand how bad the sounds were, even my wife agreed, I took the advice of others and used the C-27's sounds and they were soooo much better. Since it was daytime on my VA's server in Japan that's where I did my test flight, Gifu to Fukushima and it flew the flight plan with no problem. I may repurchase the Reality XP weather radar for this bird but I'll see what others post about that, my only hope is that someone does a config for the Shockwave Lights as the ones it comes with were nice I like the Shockwave ones a little better.
 
NOTAM: I just went to check my simmarket account and found a update. The update is small and is a new gauge cab file. I am enjoying the heck out of this A400M more then the Wilco offering. Thank you Rollus for including a RCAF paint also as I don't fly USAF markings. I hope a painter comes along and christens this A400M in USCG scheme, then the Wilco offering is history from my hanger.
 
I'm loving the update, sounds are better and performance. Now I only wish I could speak Frech to try to req a USCG paint. The USCG on the Wilco brought me many hours of joy. I dumped the Wilco because I am just enjoying the Rollus a400M and love it more as it is a triple option exe.
 
Guess I'll just have to get this. Bought the Wilco version ages ago, and hangared it after just ONE flight. I thought the VC was just horrible in the Wilco version. Waaaaaaay too colourful for starters, making the 'cartoonish' appearance we all love to hate;-)

Looking forward to trying another version...
