New release : Aerolite 103

thanks for that vid. i had been considering this one, i think it would be a sightseer that couldnt be beat in VR, but unfortunately, i dont think i want a lawnmower piped thru my headset earphones

im sure its very realistic, but im trying to relax

It is still in development can improve.
In this type of aircraft, the sound of the engine is loud also in real life.
In MSFS we have the possibility to lower the volume in real life there is no possibility
Flying in an ultralight with all the views is very different from an airplane with a closed cabin, it is a matter of taste.

im not sure i see need for further development or improvement. it looks fine, i just hadnt considered the lawnmower behind my head (in-sim)

It needs proper cold and dark - with parking brakes engaged, and electrical systems off.

Very like this model.

I create property styled thumbnail for every livery.

By the way, new version 1.1 is out.

Edit: Tested it. Flaps are there now and they work. Cold and dark start still rolls like a racecar and all switches are in the ON position. Not much of an improvement on my biggest gripe with this aircraft as of today.

Here are the release notes. The new pilot model looks great but isn’t visible in the cockpit view.

Version 1.1 Notes:

  • Damage treshold has been inscreased to avoid gears breaking on rough surfaces
  • Custom pilot model has been integrated into the model and default pilot selection function has been removed
  • Implemented flaps functionality
  • Minor sound tweaks

Known ussues:

  • Sometimes when the flight is started with the plane being airborne crash occurs during landing. To avoid, start the flight on runway/gound.

@Finnro Thx for the advice about the update. Where do you have the notes from?
Hopefully the reversed throttle and slip indicator are fixed in this one.

I have bought the 103 over simmarket and the release notes stand there under my downloads. I could only notice the changes mentioned.

I bought on PC Aviator. It said version 1.1 is current, so I downloaded again. But nothing has changed…

Great looking Aircraft with a generous cockpit view, but it does not land on its wheels.

Just like the Cri-Cri it sinks below the runway every time I touch down. :frowning:

Weird to see this with two different Payware AC from two diff companies. They are forgetting something somewhere.

Wish the sounds were more realistic.

BUG:

Close view livery green:

Same livery but FAR view:

I will sum up the known bugs here:

  • slip indicator reverse indication
  • throttle reverse movement
  • colour of airplane turns red when zooming away
  • Quicklook 45 degree no return to default view
  • sinks into runway when landing (after slewing)
  • cold and dark not correct

Anything else?

Ctrl+(some num, i can not check now) view incorrect orientation? Trying see up, but rotate 180 degree.
