This sounds like a dream come true for an old retired flight instructor that has more hours than most anyone in the C150/152.  It has been difficult reading how wonderful the Asobo C152 flies, knowing otherwise.
 

I hope you guys enjoy this type of work because I don’t think you will ever run out of airplanes needing this type of upgrades.
 

Regards,

Thanks for this! Small issue, seems my Com and Nav radio stack arent lighting up, the Com is working via the ATC menu but cant dial VORs. Anyone else?

Also noticed this.

I can't find this supposed dimmer knob 

Hide the yoke. It's the knob to the right of the ignition switch.

For those having an issue with avionics not displaying, use ctrl-e to start the plane for now.

Just tried it out.  Very nice, thank you.

The C152 is pretty much the only plane I fly anyway so having th specs closer to real is nice.  Two issues I noticed.

1) The dome light doesn't work with the mod.  It's very helpful sometimes at night to see around the cabin.

2) Certainly nothing at all to do with the mod, but if ones last flight was with the C152, normally when you start the app again, the C152 will still be the default aircraft.  I noticed that after I dropped the C152X in the community folder, the C208 was the default aircraft ready to launch.  I found that out after I spawned.  I was expecting the C152 but was in the Caravan.  Same thing happened when I removed it.  C208 loaded as default.  Certainly no biggie, and not even the issue of the mod, but for those that fly the C152 and are expecting the default C152, just double check.  Prevents you from going out and coming back in.

Again, thanks.

The dome light works for me.  Are you sure the brightness knob is turned up?  It’s the small dial under the yoke.

Thank you so much for improving the aircraft and providing it to the community. 👍

Bingo.  That was it.  Since I never messed with the brightness knob, I guess that the default is turned up bright on the default model because when I turned it on, it sure was bright.

Actually, very good thing I went down this route, because now I know I can turn it down for night flying.  Nice and dim, cozy and peaceful.  Just hope I don't fall asleep now at the yoke.  No autopilot to save me!

this just made the aircraft more unrealistic. no improvment.

Why don’t you add some constructive criticism to help the developer instead of that blurb?

i allready sendt some reports to Asobo.

Thanks for this, sir.

I found it more life-like. Well done.

I have many, many and too many hours in 152's. It felt about right to me.

Does it spin (stall + autorotation) ? Thats my go-to test for “realism”.

That's not the same as posting it here or informing the guys modifying it - they are not Asobo, but they could probably attend to any shortcomings quicker if you tell them.

What are the main issues?
