Carenado 182RG

I hope this isn’t a low effort rejig of their original release.

Well, visually it already looks stellar as always. No corners cut there. As for the flight model and system depth … It’s Carenado. We know what we are going to get: “Not great, not terrible”.

If it’s as good as their v-tail Bonanza I’ll be happy enough.

indeed. really like that V tail Bonanza. If it had the option for a GTN750 it would be perfect but JayDee’s workaround with the GNS530 bezel is a reasonable compromise

I am definitely looking forward to the RG,
I had it in FSX and loved it. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
A few years ago I had a flight in a real RG and
And flew her myself for a few minutes.
What a great experience.
Now I hope someone will do a nice “D-ESKY” repaint
for the RG and everything is perfect for me. :upside_down_face:

I can get onto that. Basic scheme is the same as I want to do anyway (old red/gold variant of D-EGTG), so slapping a couple of different colours on shouldn’t be too hard.

I think the Carenado Archer sounds are quality. Should take a listen if you haven’t already.:+1:

I would love to see a 210 or 206. Back in the day they had a 206 for FS9 with pax or cargo interiors, cargo pack option, amphibian, etc. Would love to have that in MSFS.

Yeah the 206 got a lot of flight time with me.

Not tried that yet only the 182 and 337 :+1:

That would be the icing on the cake,
Thank you for considering this.

Fantastic. I just love the old 70’s style gauges. That will be a day one purchase, no doubts.

Also, Carenado are bringing most, if not all of their planes to MSFS, so there should be a C206 and CT210M released at some point… Slowly, all my beloved FSX GA planes are making it over to MSFS :star_struck:

P.S. While I do not need working circuit breakers, an option to exchange the antiquated GNS530 for an even older pair of navcoms would be sooo nice :pray::man_bowing:
Yes, I know, radio beacons are slowly becoming a thing of aviation history, and even ILSes are getting rarer these days, but man I just love that type of flying in MSFS…

The 182 sounds by FTSim+ are an improvement.

Nice Is there anything out for the 337?

haven’t seen anything

Looks like there is a variant with a nice grey interior as part of the package -

I’ve been waiting for this plane for a long time too. I’m just curious how many belly landings I make because I forget to extend the landing gear… :rofl:

Does that have the same motor as the normal 182?

I believe it’s the same 235bhp normally aspirated engine as the standard 182… not the T182’s turbo.

Using this video as a reference, the cowling shape suggests that Carenado is indeed modeling a 1979 182RG II.
