February 8, 20197 yr Just recommending them for their Microlights, copters and gyrocopter. They are a niche player in Xplane11 and if you like to hand fly, and get away from avionics drill and FMS's once in a while, they are a great distraction. I have their Eurofox, Tecnam, Mini 500, Gyrocopter, and Trike. As a light sport and trike pilot in real life I can vouch for their flight dynamics. And their attention to external and interior detail is outstanding. Rare do I recommend a vendor as much as I recommend them, for those who want to try out the low and slow niche. However their Microlights can keep up with a 172 and are faster than a 152, which is generally true of Light Sport aircraft in real life. My Allegro 2000 trainer could outpace a 172 in calm skies when I took flight lessons out of Falcon Field in Mesa AZ with Jason Bullard as my CFI. He grilled me on MSFS and flight sims and felt I was seasoned enough to take off and land on my first lesson, I needed no instrument training having learned them in our sims. However he coached me that simmers do not look outside enough in their first lessons, they are too focused on instruments, so he conditioned me to look outside. I became better at spotting traffic than my CFI's. John
February 8, 20197 yr Best developer for XP, I think mi have almost all of his products, and they are excellent. While some, like the Eurofox, could be improved still in terms of graphics, he constantly updates all his models. His latest offerings, like the Longeze, the SF-25, and the choppers look fantastic. All of them fly very well. His autogyro are the best simulation of those odd aerodynamic ducks I’ve flown. Big thumbs up.
February 8, 20197 yr The C-47 is good value. 7950X3D + 7900 XT + 64 GB + Linux | 4800H + RTX2060 + 32 GB + Linux My add-ons from my FS9/FSX days
February 9, 20197 yr VSKYLABS is excellent! - Currently giving X-Plane 12.10 a spin on Shadow PC. 10 years with X-Plane now, since 10.20
February 9, 20197 yr Yes they are. Back in my student days, if the instructor caught me with my head inside too much he placed little cards over instruments to force me to fly by attitude - outside references. Didn't take many cards but what a way to learn.
