These latest updates are making a massive difference. Thanks for the hard work.

The only other (very very minor) issue I still occasionally see is the red flashing beacon on the tail sometimes bleeds through the roof. Nothing urgent really - as how often do you ever turn around and look directly behind you? I only noticed it at all as sometimes in multiplayer streams I pan backwards to see who is behind me.

No Problem that was an easy fix. Thanks for pointing that out, even the little things count.


It seemed to only happen at night with the beacon, here is a screenshot of Update 1.0.6 with it resolved.

Engines look a lot better with the rivet retexture! Thanks for the quick action on this!

Your support and addressing of user requests on this has been fantastic. Honestly, when I first bought it, I did it mainly because the price was reasonable and it was a way to support a new plane developer. But it’s quickly evolved into something I regularly take out of the hangar!

(Would love to see the Navion brought up to similar standards – I know it’s freeware, but it’ll be great promotion for the Twin version and your future planes if it’s brought up to a similar standard – like the early Got Friends freeware releases are great promos for their commercial stuff. Just please fix the stretched US insignia on the military paint when you do! :slight_smile: )

Update 1.0.6 will one up all of my previous updates. I should have released this plane as a Beta. 1.0.6 is more like a final product. Might be out as soon as tomorrow. I want it to be worth the full $15 when my sale ends on Gumroad tomorrow night. 1.0.6 pretty much covers that and then some :wink:

Got this tonight and have put almost 2hrs on it. One thing i see is the mixture levers do nothing but shut off the engine. As i try to lean it out the RMP does not increase and EGT does not raise. Am i missing something?

Loving it so far!

Great find. I didn’t even notice. I had changed that back some time ago, but it must have gotten back into the code. I will have it fixed in 1.0.6. I’m testing it out now. I had to make multiple changes in code to get that to work correctly. Thanks!

Now when you bring it back to around 53% mixture it starts to drop the RPM with 80% Prop throttle. It really drops about 3500 RPM around 17% mixture and is very close to cutting out. I checked that while in the air at 4000’ Full Throttle. EGT tuning constant keeps the manifold pressure pretty stable so there’s no real push on the MP. It’s very(VERY) slight, but then recovers quickly.

I did change the tuning constant and the peak temp, but the only thing that really controls the Manifold Pressure directly is the throttle. When at 60% throttle (and Full Prop throttle) bringing the prop down will show you a movement in MP and then it recovers slightly. It’s definitely noticeable. Mixture plays a minor role in it as well. So depending on all the settings they now work as intended.

Update 1.0.6 is now available on Gumroad and on Sim Market - Last day for the sale on Gumroad.

I got the update but can not for the life of me figure out how to change it to the GTN750

Please help
Bill

Never mind figured it out.

Flip the red switch to the right of the avionics

Yes, I made it a red cover switch so you don’t accidentally bump it. It’s located just to the top right of the GNS530.


This will be included in the manual. I’ll make sure to have it online(Website) as a reference tonight.

Can believe I bought this full price. I’ve literally got freeware aircraft that have better VC. I appreciate the multiple updates, but this aircraft was not and is still not ready for Distro.

I can’t fly it for more than ten minutes before all that fuzz on the dash makes my eyes wanna bleed. No way that interior is 4k?

Do better bro.

While the VC is the main reason I haven’t purchased this yet (partially the graphics, partially that the panel config looks nothing like any IRL panel I’ve seen for this aircraft) there are ample screenshots and youtube video reviews of this that you could have checked before purchasing.
