A2A have released their Accu-Sim Mustang, both Civilian and Military versions, for P3Dv4! \o/

The Accu-Sim P-51 Mustang is here finally in its P3Dv4 guise. Back in 2004, we released a P-51D for Microsoft Flight Simulator 9 that used a flight modelling process known as “Absolute Realism.” A lot of characteristics were being experienced for the first time in flight simulation. If you flew flight simulators, you were used to the old “yank and bank” as most flight simmers held the position that aircraft really didn’t spin. This was largely because, back then, developers were largely programmers, with no flying experience. Even today, while it’s getting more common, it’s still rare to find a developer who actually has even taken the controls of a real aircraft.Today, A2A has the wind at our back, with Accu-Sim helping to bring serious aviators and simulation together. However, the industry as a whole hasn’t really budged that much as people are discovering that it’s not enough to be a pilot, or even a highly experienced pilot. It takes an entirely different skill set to be able to observe, translate, and re-create the experience. It’s not being a pilot, aeronautical engineer, or even a highly skilled aircraft modeller that makes the difference. It’s the combination of “all the above” with, perhaps most importantly, a relentless drive to re-create the most believable experience possible. Even if you have never flown an aircraft before, you as a living person with an inherently deep sense of what is right or wrong in the physical world you live in. You touch things, see things, and hear things every minute of every day. So trust your instincts, because, if it doesn’t feel or sound right to you, it probably isn’t right.Also, in the real world, actions create lasting results, both good and bad. There are consequences everywhere inside of a cockpit, especially a high performance, propeller-powered, combustion driven aircraft. This is where the persistent aircraft makes all the difference. In the real world, you don’t get a fresh new aircraft every time you strap yourself into the cockpit. The aircraft is a physical machine that exists in the world. If your aircraft was pulling to the right when you parked it, it will still be pulling when you taxi to the runway the next day. When things happen in a simulated world as you expect in the real world, you start to treat it as if it is just that, real.With lasting results, wrapped inside the newest modelling and advanced material-making techniques, you will have an aircraft that you can spend not just minutes, but hours admiring.. Together, with professionally recorded sounds and physics, the end result is the sense of having a complete, real, majestic, raw, flying machine stuffed inside your computer. And we hope, you don’t just treat it like any aircraft, but rather like “your” aircraft.We hope you enjoy your new beautiful bird, and hope you learn to fly and treat her well.

$100 for both the civ and mil versions. I’m finding it difficult to type this while I roll my eyes so hard. Is there at least anything new with the V4 editions?

 

edit: n/m I see everything is in the features tab on the page.

What !..:)) Is this the P-51 day? I just bought the one from SkunkCrafts for XP11...However who can resist on buying A2A simulation art..Congrats to the team!

The A2A Civilian P51 was a special bird in FSX. One of my fav, but right now I'm waiting for the release of the V35.😀

Yes, me too, I have to make choices....I have many points left just for the V35! If I want to fly with the 2 A2A Mustangs, I have always Fsx installed...

So any real difference from FSX version?  Looks about the same

No difference as far as I know.

Hi,

Does the civilian version support the GTN 650?

Yup:

New third-party GPS integration options (Flight 1 GNS 430 and GTN 650 and RealityXP GNS 430)

Check out the "Features" tab:

Well I just bought them! Don’t tell the missus! 😋

Love everything  a2a have done so far in p3d4.

Now that does add a welcomed feature that was not available for FSX.

Sorry, there are in fact some differences linked to P3Dv4. Have a look in the link in the post just above...

That's not correct. The FSX version supports all these third-party GPS units as well.

Seems like the difference in features is the Civilian has an internal light and dynamic lights and they both take advantage of P3D's material properties.  The original FSX version already allows some 3rd party GPS systems to be integrated.

I guess the most important thing is that they are now officially P3D and thus should work as intended and not forced into the program

The A2A Civilian mustang for FSX supported the GTN 650?
