A bit of background. The dev has a tendency to work on his projects in bursts of enormous energy: not unlike him to work straight through nights (with only a few hours of sleep) to address issues. A super friendly guy, first-class coder and innovator and he will no doubt bring an interesting project to MSFS.

In a nutshell XPRealistic gives you:

• A profile for each aircraft/heli (or, if you prefer, you can piggy-back on another plane's profile or even copy the settings over)
• XPRealistic started as a 'camera' movement (in inverted commas because it's essentially your virtual head) plugin, but quickly evolved to include much more
• 'Camera' movement (even of you use VR) gives you the sensation of g-forces, shake etc
• Increased noise and shake for ground run, flaps deployment, stall and many others.
• Sliders for every one of the effects, so you can select how severe you want it to be
• ... and a range of sounds (so that flap extension on a Warrior doesn't sound like the flaps extending on a A320)

It takes a little time to dial the settings in but it adds a lot to the sim experience. I don't know at what stage the development is, but will likely release soon after the Beta kicks off and then will probably enjoy a rapid series of updates (before dev goes quiet as he catches up on sleep 😂). 

Personally I'd love to see the inclusion of a fly-by camera ... but this is likely beyond the scope of the project. 

It sounds like XPRealistic is a sound, camera, and action app. He might as well go whole hog and include instant replays, shiftzstatus type functionality (eg. fps counter), and spot views too. 🙂
