And it's simple to operate.

And still it has all you need. Like the AP: I like it that's it's a completely different one then I have ever seen! The plane also has some nice (though not too realistic) functions like: clicking with the middle mouse button on the trim indicator will centre the trim! Or doing the same on the mixture lever will set the Peak, Power or Economy setting, depending on YOUR preference (which you can set with the RV7 config tool) and you can even set HOW MUCH you want Power or Economy to be rich or lean of peak!!! Again, not to realistic but a GREAT and original option if you choose to use it! :( You can also change the color of the displays and pick your default setting for the GPS (on or off) and transponder (Off, Test, Stby, On, Alt). YOu can even change settings for the AP but those are a bit too deep for me so I leave those alone... :wink:One thing, though: the plane comes with DX10 and DX9 textures and it defaults to DX10. Be sure to set it to DX9 (although I didn't have any problems with it set at DX10...).Now, go buy that plane!

Good input, thanks much.Bob

Ryan, I assume you mean 530W... Yes, the final version has the clickspots fully workingin the virtual cockpit without the need for any FSUIPC assignments.

No I meant 430 - I never bought the 530... I was hoping they'd have an option like the duke does... so the 430 won't fit?

It is 530 only - but the 530 that comes with the aircraft is not bad, and you can still pop up the RXP 430 if you prefer..

Hmmmm... I'll think about it... I may just wait for the Carenado SR22 - the 430's should fit in the center console in that one.

...Ryan, if the SR-22 carenado is producing is the one I think they are, there won't be any room or need for RXp430's...the perspective doesn't use that system..it has an fms style input pad in place of the dual garmins...If it is an avidyne, you are in luck

Oh my goose-nest...You guys are seriously funny. I was expecting a modern airliner or a modern military a/c. jajaja....Oh well, I'll keep waiting. But, hey I don't mean to spoil your fun.. I know we all have our set of a/c we prefer. And just as I enjoy a good Airbus, a Boeing, or a good VRS, I am sure you too enjoy a small little piston little plane. :( I know I'm so such a bad comedian ! Enjoy guys !

Ahh cripes you're right... duuh you think I would remember that.... since I see them everyday. Hmmm that could cause an issue with flying recent approaches... still could probably add a RXP popup...

...Unless....and you and I both know this is a long shot....they actually integrate a flight1 style waas capable G1000 with navdata support...then, the RXP units wouldn't be needed. But I feel as though that is just wishful thinking

If they did that I'd scream like a justin bieber fan! ZOMG!!!!!

Yeah....thanks for your wisdom. :(

Ryan, Just until that happens... you actually could install the 430 - it would look something like this,and the buttons would work, although they are in the "530 configuration"... not perfect, but it would getyou flying and enjoying this fabulous bird while Carenado builds your Cirrus.

Hi there,Can someone comment specifically on the slip performance of this plane. Are we talking RealAir quality or are we talking stock MS 172 style here :DRegards,George

You don't need a bloody GPS. Take off, climb, do loops hammerheads, stalls, spins and rolls. Land, and try to wipe the smile off your face. Have fun, this 'small little piston plane' is the one to provide it. All with the airport within sight!

Some people like to do more than pattern work ;)Thanks Bert, it does look like it would work. I suppose I could stick a popup in for the clickspot as well... I'll think on it.
