Looks really good!

 

I look forward for a review :-)

Just took her for a spin...

Excellent, some really nice enhancements, especially sound !

Try to open the window during flight !

Also, the dual throttle/rpm/mixture manipulators are absolutely perfect !

 

Cheers !

also had a first short spin and a good impression. But: no switch for the beacon light? where is it? :o And what are all the switches just behind the fuel selector for?

Has the cockpit been updated at all? 3D Gauges? or new textures?

How does it fly in XPX? I've got my XP payware 'liner covered with the Heinz 787. I'm considering adding a good quality pw GA to my lineup, but want to be sure there aren't any major problems to consider when running it in XPX.

Carenados Seneca II will not work with Gizmo plugin installed. If you have a plane that requires Gizmo, you must uninstall Gizmo for the Seneca to work. In my setup with Gizmo installed, the FPS falls to 2 and the sound is awful. Uninstall Gizmo, the sound is awesome and FPS goes back to normal.

 

Very easy plane to fly, trim is near perfect. Looks and flies very well.

Can I just correct you, Donald.

Don't "uninstall" Gizmo. Just move the Gizmo folder to your desktop. Then drop back in when using an add on that needs it.

There's a great post here about this Seneca: B)

Not everyone is affected. I am using a Mac and never had these issues although I use a variety of aircraft with either Gizmo or Sasl. Lucky me. But trust me, I have my own issues with XP10 :o

Can I just correct you, Donald.

 

Actually that's what I meant by uninstalling, and in fact what I do.

Thanks, a better way of saying it.

I can't confirm for sure..maybe Goran or Cameron can elaborate, but seems like I heard that at some point, Gizmo will go 'aircraft specific' to alleviate some of the problems of global plugins.

[thepitts 30]

And not before time !!

Alternatives to above attempts to get around global plugin fouling is to use the freeware program "XAddonManager".

 

Now back to trying to take off the CF104 vers2.3 without overspeeding the gear....help.
