Ok nice plane, spent up large in career mode. It cost me Rep & dollars when I got it in the air. first attempt… Power drain… All displays went dead all electrics failed. but still I marched on the the destination to find no hydraulics also for flaps and landing gear. I attempted to bind emergency landing gear but that also did not work. so if the power is out you WILL crash.
Second attempt tried to keep the Engines 2/3 at Idle after takeoff to mitigate the power drain, unsure if it works as I was also working through some PFD & MFD settings to find that the GPS page decided to disable my Auto pilot in a way that the aircraft went into a slight right bank and lost all flight surfaces and AP had no ability to control or correct the aircraft also, It was quote scary and would have made a good crash investigation for Mayday. some kind of youtube tutorial would be very helpful to understand this aircraft, as a hybrid a electric meter or gauge would be helpful as well as an alarm if power draw exceed gains from the generators in E1 & E2. Just to confirm power does drain after 30-45min in flight, is there a way to regain power if E2/3 are pulled to idle to help charge main batteries and recover HUD? also does the cabin pressurizing system actually work? or will I asphyxiate my passengers as career FL sends me to 36,000 ft otherwise no career players will be able to use this aircraft. It has so much potential in this game as an ATR alternative. I would say its about 60% completed. Nice so far, but not after 45min max when again no hydraulics.
