Hi
I’m currently using the A320v2 that comes with the sim in the SU15 update but thinking about trying out the LVFR A320 from marketplace. Is it any better than the current default or pretty much like for like?
Thanks

Stick with the A320v2 as it is miles better than the LVFR A320. It flies better and simulates better in all aspects. Just save your money.
The LVFR A320 family is actually a lot worse than the iniBuilds Neo v2 unfortunately. It is because LVFR planes are based on the original default Neo, which is a very low fidelity aircraft. LVFR added some functionality to the basic plane, like the system pages, and they have a custom 3D model but it sadly has a lot of modeling issues, from holes in the cockpit and fuselage to low-poly cabins, windows not actually in their frames, etc. Compared to the iniBuilds Neo v2 it’s a night and day difference, with the new A320 being infinitely better in almost every regard. The sounds are quite good in LVFR aircraft but that’s all that can be said.
So I’d say don’t bother with the LVFR Airbuses if you use the iniBuilds one. I wish LVFR upgraded all their planes to use the iniBuilds standard but it’s probably not possible due to it being encrypted.
The LVFR A320 is a mod to the Asobo A320Neo to turn it into a A320Ceo with a few extra features. It’s technically not a new aircraft it’s just a mod.
I don’t know the price difference, but if you were going to buy any 320, I’d recommend the Fenix version.
True, it may be more complicated than the default 320. But, precisely because it is quite accurately modeled (I fly them IRL) a properly working 320 is probably easier to operate than a comparatively low fidelity one.
Not sure if the Fenix A320 is available for Xbox This is another one of the many reasons I’m thinking of switching to a PC as the Xbox is a bit limited when it comes to add ons.
Sorry, I totally missed that you were on XBOX.
I like it. I bought the A330, A320ceo and 319 while they are on sale right now. I don’t like the Inibuilds cockpit or sounds. The LVFR sounds and cockpit with lighting are way better than Inibuilds. Understand it’s not study level but it’s a work in progress, meaning it ain’t perfect. But for Xbox we don’t have many choices. One main thing I like about it is that I can use Simbrief or the in sim flight planner. It can’t do autoland yet. The progress page doesn’t work. It’s closer to the default than it is the Fenix so just understand that. Lvfr are constantly updating which is a good sign. Hope this helps.
