I just bought. Is there any configuration required for it to work? At first I didnāt notice any difference.
Seen this in YouTube, Iām 50/50 about
Low price/low quality addon, not bad though if you are on xbox and missing more airliners until PMDG releases their 737.

No, the package comes with 4 variants (Leap, Leap LR, PW, and PW LR) and each has its own flight model independent from the default A20N. It does not feel like the A20N at all. $25 is proper i think.

I mean of course, itās just a heavier A320neo, whether PW or CFM LEAP. Weight capacities can be edited very easily, regardless.
Now someone just needs to mod the FBW systems in and i guess its decent then. If thats even possibleā¦.

What would be the point in that? It will basically be a replica of the FlyByWire A320 that you can get for free.
Its the A321, not the A320. And systems are close enough for that.
Who would fly this thing with default A320 systems anyway if theres FBW?
If i can chose FBW systems over default, i guess the point is pretty clear, isnt it?

This could be an excellent add-on if it didnāt crash the sim, but it does, unfortunately.
Using the default A320neo systems is perfectly fine, as the A321neo is basically the same aircraft, only with a longer fuselage. As far as I know the flight characteristics are modified (range, thrust, speed, etc). Judging by the videos itās realistic enough, it would be a great variant to the default A320neo, I would definitely be interested in this. The addition of passenger cabins, animated passengers (something I havenāt seen in any add-ons yet) and 47 liveries, something we have to separately pay for otherwise, is also a great bonus.
(Donāt forget that on Xbox, there is no FBW aircraft nor free liveries.)
However, until thereās no solution for the CTD the aircraft will stay on my wishlist at best.

Mhm. Looks veryā¦ convincing 
But a huge plus is, at least it is using the NEO standard cockpit instead of no cockpit at all.

Shrink it to a 318 and 319 too! Maybe balloon it to the A350 and A380 too heh
LVFR makes decent quality sceneries, wonder why they would want to publish ā ā ā ā like this under their name?

Theres clearly a market for it, and they have done the effort to model different variants and flightmodels.
its everyones own decision to buy it or not. But believe me, theres a market for it, especially on xbox.

Some additional info from the developers. I applaud them for the straight communication.
"Few Q & A on our latest A321neo release
1- FBW implementation?
No it wonāt be possible, as their code is crowed sourced and it has its limitations with the marketplace and XBOX.
2- When I load up the aircraft in XBOX I see black screens
Yes, first time you load the aircraft variant either the LR PW or LR LEAP or LEAP and PW, it will happen. Load the plane the first time and then close the sim and load it again. It will only happen once, we are investigating, our apologies.
3- Pink cockpit
We got this fixed for the first update, our apologies in the meantime
4- Updates and improvements?
We are committed into improving this product as much as it is possible within the current limitations of XBOX and the PC marketplace.
5- Any more aircraft?
We are currently working on the entire A320 family, next up is the Airbus A319 CEO, we will then continue with the rest.
Bottom line, this product is geared to the XBOX and marketplace PC market, thatās why its not being sold on our webshop. We understand people have options, such as the great FENIX aircraft and the free FBW. And most recently the PMDG 737. Our intent is not to compete with these great addons."

Iād prolly buy this as an Xbox airliner enthusiast. All the reports of CTD are keeping me away for now though.
This is a good example of why text reviews will never be allowed in the marketplace. Let the star rating speak and copies sold.
