BBS A330 about to release

[Nathan3219 113]

Hope to see a quick review from some of our members when released.

... Black Box A320 is perfectly flyable and quite complex simulation already. 

 

Yes, it is, providing you don't use toe-brakes. I cannot get these to work using Saitek Pro rudder pedals. I'm not the only one.

Not a big deal I suppose but pressing B does take away the immersion factor quite a lot. I was doing that with the Molimerx BBC Jumbo back in the 1970s.

Sorry but I don't understand.

If they haven't finished their A320 yet, and the A330 is largely based on it.....why are they even pushing for another release without finishing the other?

 

They sound like Captainsim.

Except they're not. Everyone who has bought the bird has enjoyed it, or at least not hated it like the CS 777. The basics in BBS work. Autopilot is great, good FPS, etc. Captain Sim can't even get that right. They might share a similar beta-release philosophy, but their execution are world apart.

It's out.

[A330-300 88]

Yep, it's out . Finally a decent A330 for FSX (I hope!)

Dont see much cockpit photos though.

 

For those that have it, it sounds like its fairly functional. How is the flight dynamics?

Downloading, i'll fly it from Lisboa to Madeira and report back in ~2 hours. Madeira has a dangerous approach that i know by heart, let's see if it can fly it

Downloading now, should be interesting to see what they have come up with.

There is only VC picture I can find, I cannot believe hs is selling this thing without showing VC pcitures.

A330 has the exact same flight deck as the A320, only differance is centre console MCDU, and a few things on the overhead like extra elec hydraulic pumps, fuel system, and PRIMS instead of ELACS.

 

VC quality has never been stunning however I would take that anyday over something that looks good but has inaccurate system logic.

That FB link is down for me.

 

Also I wonder if they released the 330 because FSL is probably going to make a better 320.

 

This is the first native 330 isn't it?

[FlyCathay 18]

Good NEWS! I have been looking for a good A330. I will wait for review before I make a purchase. :lol:

[Airbus Commander 563]

Someone let me know what they make of it, I'm on the fence about this one or waiting for the FSL A330...
