Version 4.0 for XP 11.30 has been released.

EARLY-ACCESS.. so, she is very nice but lacks a few systems.

Is there a site with more information on this bird? All I get from that link is an option to purchase, no detailed information. Is this being discussed by early adopters anywhere on a forum? I don't see it mentioned in the .org helicopter "in development" forum.

I'm interested, because any larger helicopter with a good autopilot is something I might like to fly in FSEconomy. I need AP for longer distance flights, and the AW139 should be full 4-axis autopilot with auto-hover if they're modeling all the systems. 

Nope, she isn´t discussed on a forum..maybe on a discord channel. I just bought her and i have to test the autopilot. A few systems are not yet modeled, but mentioned in the manual.

If you have questions you can mail them: [email protected]

Okay, well thanks for the heads-up. Let us know how you like it!

I love her 🙂 The model is excellent and she is fun to fly. The autopilot works.

Thanks Nils.

How come there is already a Faroe Islands livery?!?!

Can you share screenshots of the main panel, if possible one from normal view and another one close view?

Much appreciated, thanks Nils!

Nils,

I said it alreay but I am keen to say again: I much appreciate you posting news regarding addons. Most of the time I was not aware so I give you reputation points 😉

It is amazing that for an early access there is a Faroe Islands livery. So I suspect that someone in the dev team or among the early access users is a fan of the scenery.

By the way I bought the Faro by your advice and it is good 🙂

You are welcome! I´m glad that you like the Faroes too. It´s now my home base for the AW139 and the Toliss A319.

A first review: https://www.helisimmer.com/reviews/x-rotors-aw139-x-plane-11

Unfortunately, the reviewer ignores the early-access status of the AW139 v4.0.

Sure Nils, but on the other hand, the devs don't even mention it is an early access https://www.x-rotors.com/

Btw, how do you know it is an early access?

"AW139 4.0 RC1 for X-Plane 11.30". So it´s not the final version.

Funnily enough, Helisimmer did call it early access, when thy first reported about the AW139: https://www.helisimmer.com/news/x-rotors-aw139-4-0-out-as-an-early-access-release

Yes right for "RC1" but we can admit that they did not clearly state "early-access" in big and bold letters.

It is sad they did not do so and it is also sad that the reviewer did not notice and maybe did not get in touch with the devs.
