Why doesn’t Carenado ever release a proper paint kit?
The marketplace shows that I have an update and it shows that I have downloaded it but it wont install and the version remains 1.0.2
I had to uninstall it to get it to update to 1.0.3, however something is goofy with the update and download process with this aircraft. The download from streamed to Installed failed twice so I closed MSFS and tried it a third time and it still wont download and install. This is just one of several reasons I loathe buying from the Marketplace and will avoid it if at all possible.
i really like that Carenado updated their release pretty quickly. imo that is not how they normally operate, so it definitely has me leaning more towards a buy now.
However I’m wanting to know, how does it feel to fly? Is it just pretty textures, or does it actually feel like the real thing ( as best as you can tell).
Hoping to get some feedback from folks who pulled the trigger on it! Does it feel more like the Blacksquare Duke Turbo, or more like a plane on rails?
I like the flight model. It’s fairly stable, but not so much it feels like rails. There is some liveliness to it. I’m working my way around King Airs now to see how they compare. Sounds are very nice. Textures are excellent. I don’t regret the purchase.
It’s better than the default king airs 1000%
I’m really enjoying it, but I’m sure it’s nothing on black square, but it’s also half the price
If you like career mode this is a must buy
thanks, leaning towards a buy now
The only thing I can’t deal with is the autopilot placement which makes it so fiddly to operate. I wish there was a ‘cheat’ like there is on the FlightFX C750.
well i pulled the trigger. having a lot of fun with it.
but question: does the IAS AP function work? Nothing seems to happen when I click it. The ‘Climb’ AP button works, but not IAS.
Back to the condition levers conversation…
I found that moving them in the sim (dragging them with the mouse) affects the ENGINE_ENGINE_CONDITION_x_SET variable.
I use Mobiflight in my minimalist home simulator and managed to configure my Honeycomb bravo throttle quadrant condition levers to send the right values to the SIM using the following Mobiflight code (Low Idle is around third of the range):
@ 10000 < if{ 0 } els{ @ 30000 < if{ 1 } els{ 2 } } (>B:ENGINE_ENGINE_CONDITION_1_SET)
and
@ 10000 < if{ 0 } els{ @ 30000 < if{ 1 } els{ 2 } } (>B:ENGINE_ENGINE_CONDITION_2_SET)
I hope this help others wanting to use their quadrant fully in the sim.

I’m guessing you are in VR? Yeah, it’s faithfully reproduced, but with the viewpoint locked it’s hard to get at. I have to yank my headset down on my face to focus on it. The heading knobs are an issue as well; reach over to the copilot side, or turn blindly on the pilot side.
I get the impression it was designed when VOR nav was the way to go. There are some instruments I don’t understand. If I was shopping for an aircraft IRL, I wouldn’t buy that one. ![]()
It is a very nice King Air though. I love the sounds.
They do. It’s the white livery. That’s always been Carenado’s paint kit.
“Proper” paint kits are a luxury back from the days of freeware in FS9 that carried into FSX. It’s very rare to see layered paint kits from anyone these days with the advent of decals.
Having fun with this addon, it’s making me want to fly the Beechcraft b1900D with the 200’s sound and avionics style ![]()
need a patch for condition lever. cant seem to map it to any controller.
also taxi speed, way to fast.
Use the beta range when you taxi.
Correct it is not bindable please fix that bug
It is broken either reverse or thrust, no beta range simulated, or let me know if you can stay 1% in Beta Range and full stopping. Carenado please fix this issue
