Imported Thomas Ruth’s excellent A330-300 GE model as a trial. Then paired it with FS2020 default A320neo cockpit. Wanted to see whether this could be done since many of the screenshots and YT videos are great when looking outside but don’t have working (and nice) cockpit to go with the external model. Here are some screenshots of the exterior model as well as in the A320neo default cockpit - no mod by Iceman.
YBBN Ready for TO
Interior Cockpit
Interior Cockpit 1
Interior Overhead Panel - this is where there are issues with many buttons in correct configuration showing OFF position. Does not seem to interfere with flight dynamics.
In the air External - Climb
Testing Autopilot - 8000 ft, Heading 220 and 250 Knots
External view - stable
Cockpit showing autopilot configuration.
Overall, acceptable but the engine thrust rate is too high - needs to be tweaked.
I have 4 liveries imported successfully. No issue with bringing in the PW and RR and their liveries.
There are odd sounds like the landing gear release sound on a loop. Need to investigate.
Definitely more testing to do with the cockpit buttons and flight dynamics.
When it is in a better state, I will reach out to Thomas Ruth to see if he allows me to share his excellent model and the merge with the FS2020 a320neo cockpit with the FS2020 community.
Enjoy the FSX A330-300 airliner pictures BUT with functioning cockpit !!
