Cirrus SR-22?

[Gridley 257]

I miss the eaglesoft SR-22 turbo in P3Dv4.  Is the Carenado version good?  Has anyone gotten the ESDG plane to work in P3Dv4?  Any rumors of an upgrade in the works?  TIA!

I have the Carenado SR22 and I do not recommend it.  

The Carenado version “always” wants to climb, despite trim settings, power reduction etc). Approaches with the Carenado is very frustrating for me, the plane either wants to fall out of the sky or climb.

The G1000 is very glitchy, for example, sometimes flight planner will get stuck on the approach screen and not allow you to back out to the map screen again (this also happens with the Alabeo Da42).

Do not let the pretty pics fool you; beyond the looks, there is not much there to engage you IMO. I don’t fly my Sr22 and my report to Carenado (about 2 years ago) only resulted in them saying that they would look into the issues I raised.

Also, I could not fly the Carenado Sr22 until I upgraded to an i7-7700k (@ 4.8Ghz) and a GTX 1080….these glass cockpit planes hit the frame rates really hard when I had my i5 and GTX 680.

Thanks for the info!

The Carenado SR22 is a beautiful bird, but it does have some issue. You can read about some on the forum:

I only recommend it if you just want to fly around in a pretty looking bird, slow down, bring down the flaps, and land.

Don't expect the FD or G1000 to be realistic. It is not! But, when it's on sale, its a good value for what it is and it's the only Cirrus we have for P3d V4.

At this point we have no P3DV4 Aircraft. We'll let everyone know about this topic when the the time grows nearer...

Thanks Ron!  I hope soon - we're certainly missing the ESDG birds!
