Hi everyone,
We’re a small indie team starting work on the Aquila A210 (AT01) for MSFS 2024. It’s the two-seat German composite trainer with a Rotax 912S and a constant-speed prop, flown in a lot of European flight schools and clubs.
We’re at the very beginning: the geometry is blocked out to AFM dimensions and we’re setting up the flight model. Before we commit to the big decisions, we’d like to hear from you.
What we’re planning:
- A flight model tuned against the real POH data: stall speeds per flap setting, climb, cruise tables, glide ratio
- Custom Rotax 912S systems in WASM: oil and coolant warm-up, oil pressure, fuel pumps, a realistic 12 V electrical system
- A classic steam-gauge panel with GNS 430 / GTN 650 for the first release, with a glass cockpit variant possibly later
- Checklists and procedures that follow the real aircraft
Questions for you:
- What matters most to you in a GA trainer? (flight model / systems depth / visuals / performance / price)
- Which panel would you rather fly: classic steam gauges or glass (G3X / G500)?
- Have you flown the real Aquila? We’d love to talk to real pilots and instructors.
