Hi,

Just Flight is selling their new Robin DR400 for only $14,99. Given the quality of their latest releases, that's a true bargain!

Interesting. Wonder if that price is temporary?

Suspect it's a mistake...

No. Read the web page and you’ll see why it’s such a good price. Very generous of JF. 

It's amazing ! This can easily be the best texured/modeled GA in P3D.

A standing ovation from me to Just Flight for the quality and their very generous offer to the community. 

 

Finally Just Flight is offering value for money again. They have gone completely off the rails in the last two years with runaway prices in my opinion. While I'm not denying their good quality, I simply find it hard to justify paying some of their recent asking prices, unless one is a type-rated pilot on that aircraft and simply have to have it.

Purchased and looking forward to trying it out.

Great little aircraft and a steal at the price!

Looks good. How does it fly?

Well, i bought it because that’s a strong endorsement, but i have to say i’m disappointed.

Panel textures are just “meh”, rather than “best ever”.

The in-cockpit menu has minimal options, and has the same 1980s graphic quality as other just flight planes. And the menu arrow turns into a giant arrow that completely blocks the screen in VR mode, which is a serious oversight by a sim developer in 2019.

It’s OK if you want a cheap GA plane, maybe. The freeware DR400 released by Aerobask for X-plane is better.

I'm sorry you are disappointed. Are you sure you saw the panels in all lighting conditions? On dark conditions without the panel lights they may look dark. I also use default shaders if this plays a role. In my opinion the texturing, PBR and modeling when you pay close attention to details is unmatched. Both inside and out. But of course opinions are subjective.

Has anyone been able to get the flight1 GTN750 into the virtual cockpit?  I’ve selected this option in the cockpit configurator but it doesn’t change the virtual cockpit.

Yeah, I'm not sure how you get meh when looking at this panel. I'm super impressed with it and agree that it's right up there with the best. I'm left wondering if we're looking at the same plane. Very strange.

Also, yes, I have the GTN750 working fine. Two little tricks though, first make sure you select it from the panel switcher outside of P3D, then you have to select it from the add ons menu inside P3D.

EDIT: it should also be said that the menu arrow referenced above can be turned off with a shift-6. Problem solved.

There are 3 different Robin DR400 products for sale in the Just Flight store by Just Flight (the latest one), Lionheart and Aerosoft! I found myself mistakenly looking at the Lionheart one, which is also available at a sale price, when I first went on the JF website.

Thanks Aaron, I did the first step outside the sim but didn't realize I had to select a separate aircraft in the sim.
