The Mini-500 has a ceiling of 10,000 or 12,000 feet. But above 15,000 feet, the performance is very good. Is this realistic?

Is this flight model realistic?

No, the original engine in the actual Mini 500 would have cut out and the pilot would have had a fatal catastrophe way before they’d every managed to get that high…

GotFriends have modeled a hypothetical turbine version of the Mini-500, not the piston version that was actually built. That might explain the difference. Beyond that, turbine simulation in MSFS is still quite basic. If you want more realism regarding turbine limits, the best option right now is probably the FlyInside 206.
