In the two years since launch many rl pilots have posted here about the accuracy of the flight model. It’s more about whether a plane makes optimal use of the available model, which many planes don’t, because of the lack of resources and knowledge.
Now with SU10 the encrypted files will be decrypted. This will open the stock planes for modification. Which will shortly be done for the c172.
Let’s have this discussion again after this mod has dropped and been flown by a few people with accurate knowledge.
And indeed @HomieFFM, nobody has come up with a list of arguments why the other sim would be better. It all seems a matter of taste, nostalgia, it doesn’t go further than that ‘it feels better’. Currently I am in training for LAPL and the characteristics of the planes I fly seem accurate enough to me. It’s as much about whether my controls are tuned accurately, which they often aren’t. I have the other sim as well and don’t feel much of a difference.
Here’s another thread on the same subject:
