October 4, 20196 yr Just downloaded it. Only had time for a quick flight around the pattern. Installed the F1 GTN - shows up as a 2d pop-up but the panel just has a black screen Seems a bit heavier on frame rates than my other Carenado aircraft Seems somewhat over powered, but I only had 1 pilot and 50% fuel. Usual Carenado excellent visuals inside and out Dale Dale

October 4, 20196 yr Same here with the GTN. Also how can I get the autostart set up instead of the cold and dark start? Didn't see a pop up to select either option.

Didn't see a pop up to select either option. Shift 7 brings up the engine/system setup, Only problem - when I select 1,2,3,& 4 (ready to taxi), the engines start, but all the instruments go blank. If I go back to Shift 7 and select 5, ready to takeoff, all the gauges come back on. Dale Dale

Though it could be due to using the Reality XP GTN and not the Flight 1 one. the sounds of the toggle switches and flaps are orgasmic though!

October 4, 20196 yr Author My brief flight was smooth enough, I just noticed that my frame rates were around 45 fps. This was at a regional airport with minimal traffic and default weather and scenery. Under these conditions, I typically get around 60 fps with other Carenado aircraft, like the Fokker F50. Dale

I don't have the EMB120 yet so can't confirm. YBCG

October 5, 20196 yr How are flight dynamics and systems? Do the basics work? AMD 5830X Nvidia RTX 3060 Win 11

As far as I could tell the basics work well. It seems everything on the overhead is clickable/switchable...though if they are just dummies or not I could not say. Hand flew well. Is it realistic? Could not tell you as I don't have any real world EMB-120 time, and finding information on its quirks online seems to be hard to come by. APU started well, engines started well. Flaps moves well (the digital flap meter on the overhead is neat). All the engine instruments moved smoothly. I'm sure there are bugs, but my 30 minutes didn't have anything glaringly wrong stand out.

The cockpit certainly has a different feel to the texture work, especially the top of the glare shield. It could also just have been some reflectivity along with the PTA shaders making things look different too...
