Is the latest version 2.1 a improvement?

Featured Replies

I've tested the 2.01 version and wondering if the latest version is it worth to buy for use in P3dV4.5 The tests and reviews stopped all in 2016 with the 2.0 version and want to be sure that the transponder issue and auto-pilot speed problems are fixed and is it also worthwhile to invest in the Syntetic Vision add-on.

Thx in advance...

What AP speed problems?

Holding a programmed speed in Vnav flight, in climb or descent but that is not what I have asked... My question is, are there any improvements between version 2.01 (2016) and the latest version 2.1... but regarding to your answer, It's a little silly in that kind of plane to throttle a automatic flight by hand or do I missed something?

I don't see anything 'silly' about this. Autothrottle is a pretty complex and expensive system and usually not installed in biz jets, (including the  Phenom).

The old jet transport aircraft didn't have autothrottles either and not even some newer ones like the CRJ have it.

Ahh, the developer himself not giving any answer on my question if there is any improvement. You answered the wrong question. Thx, going further on my search.,  

I don't know since I've never installed any updated version and I'm only developing the FDE.

If this was a 'wrong' question, why did you ask it?  

You wouldn't be the first one who complains about the AT system, without realizing that there isn't one.

Well I'm not, I'm not asking about Autothrottle, I Know there isn't but hitting FLC is driving the thing mad so you have constantly monitor manual the speed. That's only 1 of the things I see regular in comments and also my own little test experience in the 4.01 version I have tested. More important for me is the bugfix that I can switch the transponder to Standby or Ident. I'm mainly flying online on VATSIM so a constant XPDR On will give me yells from ATC when on ground.

The reason I reacted like this is my personal experience with "developers" of simulated airplanes. Never get a direct answer but mostly a "by a Snake bitten answer" as I have tried to kill there baby.

Anyway, I like the plane but when there are no improvements (xpdr) I search for another Biz jet bird 

Thx

Which one is it? 2.01 or 4.01? I fully agree that you should search for another aircraft.

When using FLC in anything but calm weather you do have to monitor IAS very careful and it's very uncomfortable IRL,  but I know that's not what you want to read.

you have still NO solution

Again, I don't have any idea which is the latest version since I'm providing the FDE for a very basic, partially finished aircraft. Usually it's only in case of reported FDE related problems/questions that I'm downloading the whole package and check for myself.
