Well it's flyable, but....for all these years, I do hope to get something better...

How can you feel the AP Is as glitch as the old one from watching a video. The pilot in the video is a IRL 175 pilot. Just wondering what your basing your observation on?

It looks really interesting. I hope they are not too greedy with the price (as some developers are).

I don't have the current version so I can't compare but just watching the video it's clear that there are some issues when in LNAV mode and how it tracks toward waypoints. Also,  the direct to intercept function doesn't seem to work right. Hopefully they'll fix those issues because otherwise it looks like a worthwhile purchase.

All the flightdeck seems modeled a bit oddly: the shapes are not super-accurate.

The MCDU seems ok, pages are there but some of  the colours, fonts and other details are wrong (they look like the old FS2004/FSX Embraer).

Sounds are okayish.

PFD and ND are correct, again fonts are wrong and the dimensions of the FD, speed/hdg bugs are a bit off. It looks like they can't use the original one maybe?

But aside from these (mostly) graphic error: it looks okay. I really hoped to see something a bit more detailed, not PMDG/FSL but at least a little bit more curated.

I am curious to know which Epic load they are simulating (Epic Load is the name of the main software of the Embraer: all different software have different name).

Obviously I can't wait to try it!

 

EDIT:

Yes, the autopilot looks a bit too "reactive" from the videos, it's much more gentle IRL

Dont think we can judge the looks and colors from a video. Its likely super compressed, and not in the highest quality. Compare it with some high res shots on FB  which is again compressed, but it does look a whole lot sharper. 

If you watch those videos, and the RL EMB pilot dealing with the oddities that happen and explains that it happens in the real aircraft.  However alot of simmers will dismiss it as a bug and poorly done AP.  But common sense prevails. If the AP is not doing what it is supposed to do...., Intervene!   

I look forward to this alot.  A little different from the Boeing and Airbus flying with some peculiarities.

Well, they are clearly different.

I don't think that video compression can muate colors and fonts so much! 🙂

Also I was talking about details that are different from what I see everyday in the office 😉

Heres another full test flight from another RW pilot.

I’m interested in this product, but I couldn’t get past the visuals of the vc modelling...some aspects seemed nice (like it appears they have used pbr which enhances the look) but there seems to be something about proportions and / or somehow it just felt like a slightly cartoonish version. I think it’s the displays in terms of fonts  sizing and somehow the proportion modelling for some parts of the vc seem off. It’s like my brain wants to like it but some parts take away from the immersion to a point my brain doesn’t quite “buy in”. Centre console and throttles and overhead seem good, but....hmmm, there’s something not quite right visually here. Want to like it though 🤓🤓

I'm so thrilled we are getting rid of that old autopilot glareshield

Just to remember how to fly this plane, I broke out the old version of e-jets. It works well for such an old addon. I can't wait for the new version. It will be a very nice addon when brought up to date with p3d v4.4+ features. Why others get it so horribly wrong is beyond me (looking at you aerosoft crj).

overhead panel looks really high. need a booster seat to reach it 😃

Yes this is a part of what feels weird spatially speaking in the cockpit. Has promise if they can adjust....

It seems like they have been RELEASED. If you do a sera h on feeltheres store, you find them:

https://www.feelthere.com/?s=Embr&post_type=product

looks like, like the previous version, it’s split between the 170/190 and 175/195 variants. It also seems like there is a 10$ discount on each variant package for openers of the previous version, or, if you buy all variants in one purchase, you get the same discount. Full price per package is 60$, and 50$ for the discounted packages for previous owners.

havent bought it yet... I’ll let others be the guinea pig 🙂

I'm pretty sure I bought both wayyy back in the day so I don't think I qualify for the discount.
