It is definitely a payware. All new Asobo planes are payware, TopRudder, upcoming Husky and Ju52.
How much is it going to cost?
unknown so far.
Great :S, i would had preferred another plane thouā¦
Canāt always get what you want
I for one am looking forward to it.
Sure, you can not always get what you want, but at least SOME times
XD
The Junkers is a fascinating prospect, but I am still at a loss and see all sorts of fun with engine management for those with external throttles. 3 engines equals nine axes and even the Honeycomb and TQ6 mob are going to be three levers short, so to speak.
I think the 52 is a brave choice and wish it every success, but I am perplexed as to why they didnāt take the easy route out of this and choose to develop a twin, or specifically, the DC 3. Thinking about it more, the PMDG jockeys will also have a similar problem, I suppose.
I have all 4 of the throttles for the DC-6 bound to a single throttle axis. No issues at all.
German BMW 132 was a derivative license built of the P&W R-1690 Hornet. (725 HP). Export models were built with 447 kW (600 hp) P&W R-1340 Wasp and 578 kW (775 hp) Bristol Pegasus VI engines.
French (Junkers controlled) production Ju52 known as Amiot AAC 1 Toucan used the BMW engines built by SNECMA.
Last Ju 52 built, the Spanish CASA 352L used the ENMASA Beta (750 HP) also a derivative of the BMW, were retired in 1974.
And with 2 axis it is also nice to control on the throttles.
Nice. This video makes me want it!
You should try a little program called RasndFailures2020, which gives a multitude of random failures, so not to sure what one would do if one engine fails and you have to cut mixture, feather a prop etc with only one throttle setup. Iām sure thereās a way.
no need for any external tools for failures with the PMDG DC-6 ![]()
If you mistreat an engine, that engine will die.
Solution for a single axis throttle quadrant; do your shut down procedure with the mouse, and once the prop is feathered, the engine shut down, fuel cut off (which you can all do in the DC-6), it doesnāt matter anymore if you move the throttle later ![]()
Would I like a full 4axis throttle quadrant? sure, I just donāt have the room to place it ![]()
RWY 10, quite untypical for VFR in LSZR ![]()
Looking forward to that combo as well!
Has there been any more information released on the Ju-52 or it is still just what was announced during the developer Q&A?
It will be released with the next world update, in August
Affectionally called Tante Ju.
Look forward to it.
I would be interested to get this addon. One of my wifeās German relatives flew JU52s in the invasion of Crete in 1941 ![]()
I get that theyāre working within the confines of the sim, but the instrument panel does not match the airplane at all.
