P3D V2.3 Beta 2 - Carenado's Seneca V - Weather Radar

Featured Replies

This was a joy to fly, don't know how accurate it is to real world, but there is one at my FBO that I can rent for $255/hr ... I might get an instructor to take me up for "exploratory" flight.

 

It does seem slow to get moving and very hard to stop (need to check my toe brakes, make sure I'm getting full range) ... my landing was a little scary!

 

 

Love the G600, the TAWS (Terrain awareness) system was very nice.  The weather radar worked well also ... from the manual "Precipitation or objects more dense than water, such as earth or solid structures, will be detected by the weather radar. The weather radar will not detect clouds, thunderstorms or turbulence directly. It detects precipitation associated with clouds, thunderstorms, and turbulence."

 

Just a very short flight, but so far I'm impressed ... everything works including lights.

 

If someone knows how to turn off the right seat MFD let me know ... it seems they are linked and can't be configured independently of each other.

 

Cheers, Rob.

Rob,

 

Are the cockpit shadows not anti aliased, or is that an option?

Very nice video! The sky looks amazing, and the cockpit of the Seneca V looks really nice.

I agree that the flickering shadows kind of kill the immersion, but I think Rob has set the shadow quality to Medium, so a higher setting will make them sharper.

I posted information about ground/cloud shadow quality here http://forum.avsim.net/topic/447638-p3d-v23-beta-2-testing/?p=3047814  which does impact cockpit shadow quality regardless of one's Shadow Quality set via the UI.

 

It's a performance to visual trade-off.

 

Cheers, Rob.

 

 


The thing that kind of looks like a HUD?

 

What Bert said ... I kinda wish it were optional.

 

Cheers, Rob.

I believe that was 3W5 - Mears Field  or is it Concrete Muni?  (Washington US)

 

Cheers, Rob.
