Excellent 
I have to say that I enjoy everything that you have done so far, but soaring is a special thing for me. I have a few hours in gliders IRL and can’t wait for things to flesh out in this regard in MSFS. Soaring is as close to flying like a bird as I can imagine. This is an immediate buy for me. I can’t encourage you more. Thanks for all you are doing to improve the whole platform. People such as yourself, with passion and talent, will push this sim to unforeseen hieghts.

In FSX I spent more time in gliders than anything else, I love just cruising with the birds watching the scenery below. So all I can say now is at last it looks like my dreams are coming true. Excellent work!!!
Oh my God…it looks like i have to redesign my cockpit.
Looks stunning, cannot wait to fly this beaty!!

Discus-2c Development Update!
Coding, Decals, and Beta Testing!
Another great week for the entire Got Friends team! We have successfully finished model animations, coding is around 90% finished, and texture work is ramping up fast!
This next week we are going to focus on the final 10% of coding, adding decals to the 3D model, and of course start beta testing!
Release will follow soon after and we already have a nice date planned… Hopefully everything goes smoothly and you’ll be soaring in no time!
Enjoy another round of previews!

Here are some in-game screenshots from various beta testers. We have a running list of fixes but for the most part, they are not alarming and very minor. Thank you all for your support!

I am also very excited about the Discus-2c. So far, the work from the Got Friends team looks great. I’m really looking forward to it and wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
PS: And to all those who do not celebrate Christmas, I wish them happy holidays.

Where do I sign for beta testing

Discus-2c: Official Trailer!
Release Date: 01/01/2022
So What is Next?
The Discus-2c will always be free. We are working with Asobo to distribute this version on both PC and Xbox for free. Hopefully we hear more soon!
Regardless, this version will become the “Standard” Package. We will continue improving it, updating it and ensuring it’s the most enjoyable Glider experience to date.
In time, we will develop an additional “FES/2cT” Expansion. Sold as Payware. This will not be a different Discus-2c. Instead we will use this Discus-2c as the base. We will build upon the already established Discus-2c package and release new sub-models, liveries, motor functionality, sounds, panels, avionics, options, etc as ADDITIONAL features. If something comes up that should be on the Discus-2c standard edition, it will be added as an update to the free base package.
You try the glider, you fly the glider, you love the glider, you want more for the glider, you can support us and purchase additional features.
I hope you all see this as a big win for the community. It’s NEVER going to be a, “Should I download this version or purchase this version?” Instead it’s always going to be free and if you want more and/or want to support us, you’ll have that option!
Thank you for all the support!

Wow @DigitalJonx ! 
First of all, a compliment: the video definitely makes you want to go gliding. I am very happy and say in advance a very big thank you. Unfortunately, the glider license remains denied to me for health reasons (cervical spine & lumbar spine). I am very much looking forward to the relaxing hours of gliding on the PC. The Discus has always been my favorite glider. 
Thanks again for this great gift to the community.
Have a good start into the new year ´22!

I am not a glider pilot, i only flew RC Planes on a Glider field years ago, but my father-in-law was a glider Pilot and i fly VR in MSFS, maybe he will test it out too 
I will test it bavaria Haidberg Zell Airfield and some fields in the saxony region.
