This one can be placed in any craft you have in the sim objects/ aircraft with a panel

So can the ASN radar gauge. In fact ASN has a gauge installer built into ASN so that you can easily install it to any aircraft as a pop up gauge.

That's what I thought

Same as the WX Advantage Radar management tool then... Awesome  

The WX Advantage has at least one major advantage (PUN!) over the competition (so far.. see below):  It works with not only all aircraft it also works with ALL (yes, ALL) WX engines.  In all circumstances.  And, without a FPS hit of any kind.

 

The option to include an actual 3D model in a dev's aircraft is a bonus and we are working with devs to get you exactly that.

 

As well, we are even now, working on making what we've done even better...  No comments on what exactly but it will be a free update.

Are you able to give a list of developers working with you, so I know if an airplane I own or plan to own will eventually include this in the virtual cockpit?

We will let them let you know.  Sorry... but NDA's are all the rage these days...

So it appears to me that, currently, there is no big advantage over the ASN gauge if one uses ASN as weather engine. For ASN users like me, it would be nice to know a bit more about upcoming features. I have read on their forum that Aerosoft will put a weather radar in their A330 which simulates ground reflections. That would be a pretty neat addition.

Congratulations gentlemen for all the hard work...

 

Few questions:

- Gauge also without the 2d bezels to install?

- Alpha blendng?

- Mouse click spots on the gauge itself when there is no 2d bezel present?

 

Thanks,

 

Cheers,

I contacted Rex too by email! Thank you spyglass, stay tune :wink:

The advantage is this gauge is a replacement for the old and not supported RealityXP WX500 that can be fitted into the virtual cockpit.

Agreed; however, if you're using ASN, there's already a great freeware gauge (Roland's: http://www.avsim.com/topic/459050-another-radar-gauge-for-vc-window-usage/page-5#entry3157396) that does exactly what this product does.  The only advantage WX Advantage has is it can read multiple weather engines.  Yet, how many people use multiple weather engines? I think most stick with their preferred engine.  To that point, If you have ASN, what does this model provide over Roland's freeware gauge?  This isn't a rhetorical question; I genuinely asking...If ASN is the only weather engine, should I buy this or stick with what I have?    

Hi guys. Here's a quick and dirty first look. Initial impressions? It's awesome, especially for how snappy and responsive it is.Yet another reason I need to buy the folks at REX a drink.

What a great video, thank you for posting that!

The precip control is similar to ASN's technique (low level injection) with some differences. The result is pretty much the same though. You can try setting your radar range to the lowest value and watch how the precip effect changes as you fly through returns. The cell location technique is proprietary but suffice to say it gives pretty much spot on results.

 

Very interesting, i will have to try it out

Rex deserves all the drinks we can pour them just for softclouds alone! And then Texture Direct... and now this, what a time to be alive.

Thank you so much spyglass, problem sorted out now  ! By the way I love the VC integration in the Milviz Baron!

 

Cheers
