Captain Sim #2

Featured Replies

Another factor i have just found. The CS 757 only has two fuel tanks. huh????? The flight dynamics of this jet are all over the place. I transfered real 757 data into the cfg and it wont respond, fuel, weight, engine thrust etc etc, but stall warnings on takeoff. Do i have to pay more to get this sorted out. Like #### i will. Seems to me like a bit of a rip off. Whats the point in releasing a series of aircraft, letting simmers buy it, to find that you cant fly cos you have to wait for another block to be released, so it "feels real". Well. this is goin back to the shop for a refund. Very disappointing. I hate these developers who take advantage of simmers. Oh and to the guy who responded to my last post, sure its a great model, but i dont want to create screenshots, i paid good money to fly a payware 757. WHAT DO I DO JUST LOOK AND ADMIRE THE GREAT PAINT JOB. ER NO!It has no FMC, No EICAS, No real FDE, No sound, no 2d panel and limited liveries. What is the point. What are we paying for. Blocks here and blocks there. Why not put it into one complete package. Unless Captain Sim are hard up for funds, this was a dumb way to earn money from a product. I think i'll stick with PMDG and CLS. At least you CAN fly their aircraft. You actually get what you paid for!!!!two bit!!!!!

CS hasn't released the official FDE for this aircraft yet. My guess is the flight model is an unrealistic version put out for the 'lite' version of this package. I'm not a big fan of how CS has handled the various releases of this 757 but I'll hold back full opinion until the whole product is released (hopefully soon)...

I just checked the CS website and in about 5 mins I got a clear indication of what is available and what is not.What is not out yet: Block D - Custom Flight Model (one of your complaints). Block F - Advanced system programing (FMS, EICAS, etc) another one of your complaints.If I wanted an acft with these systems, I wouldn't have purchased it until it was available. Plain and simple. Captain Sim is trying to please a wide variation of FSimeers...there are those out there who want a great looking bird, without the complicated flight systems....check! Then, the opposite end of the arena...those who want the total system, i.e., PMDG etc; which according to their website, Q2 of 06....we've got until the end of June before that timeframe expires. We'll see how their finished product takes shape when it comes out. Until then, if you want a full system acft, DON'T BUY IT UNTIL ITS OUT, that way your not waisteing $$$. Folks; please read the website(s) very carefully when purchasing an aircraft; and read the manuals that come with them; 95 percent of the time; that will solve alot of these issues.Sincerelly,Ken LeMay

Instead of making your hobby as displeasant as it apparently is right now, with annoying flights, refund issues and grumpy forum posts.A lot of people actually are very happy with simple systems and beautiful models, their hobby is probably different than yours, but I can't see a reason why developers can't build for them too. I'm a bit of both, sometimes I dig deeply into systems and prosedures, other times I enjoy the visual part of it. And the CS 757 as it is now IS a beautiful model, enjoyable for screenshot entusiasts such as me.Later I'll enjoy Block F, and the block system isn't that hard to understand, is it?best regardsEagle (the guy who responded to my your post)btw, why a new post?

Simple and beautiful ? It flys like a dog as I reported the other week, try stalling the thing and it goes off a Vienna Waltz shooting all over the place. At least if your having to pay, first and foremost you expect it to fly the way it should.If Captain "Give me the money" Sim are expecting people to pay for an accurate FDE, then they really have been affected by the Vodka. If I wanted to play with blocks, I'd get Lego.LDS for me, bring it on !Ash

HelloIt is made very clear on the CS site just what you were buyingeverybody here knows that it is not complete yet.If you bought the CLS A340 and thought you were getting a realistic airbus with FMC you also did not get what you paid for there as well because it is also a simple model with a totally urealistic FMCBoth are LITE sims that are nice to look at.
