Being a sucker for a good radial engine simulation, I decided to pick up Ant’s Winjeel when it came out a few days back. I’ve slowly been getting use to how it operates and behaves, but I couldn’t take it any longer. I had to see how it did in the backcountry.
Surprisingly, for a heavy and slow bird, it handled all the bush strips I have thrown at it so far with ease: Snowflake Lake, Fort Crosby, and Limber & Twentyfive Mile Lake (my two WIP strips). You really have to watch airspeed though as it will easily drop a wing.
The engine sounds are great and the whole airframe feels alive. Though, I opted to set the external engine sounds setting on the tablet to 42, as the default mixing sounds like you’re wearing a VERY good noise cancelling headset.
Textures are a bit retro as they are all photo-based (or, photoreal as it was called in the older sims), converted to PBR and new decal rivets, but hey, I can easily look past some texturing when the overall simulation and SFX are great! And I’ve never been too picky about looks anyways. 
Definitely glad I decided to pick this one up and even though I know NOTHING about the actual airframe, I’m just glad to have a good radial engine simulation.
Ant’s, if you’re reading this - I’ve only noticed a few bugs so far! The GPS stays off until I stow it and put it back on the dash again (could also be that I’m missing something not so obvious) and the canopy glass seems to be double-sided or duplicated as there is still a layer of glass that shows behind the open windows.
Also, if you want to fix the conflicting gauges/windshield glass, set the material priority of the windshield higher than the gauges glass. I normally do 50/25 but I think any values will do, really.
Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see what you do next! cough T-28 cough
