Highly realistic Acft for a demanding PC.Plt.

Recommended Posts

Hi! I am looking for a highly realistic aircraft with good graphics. I found this aircraft (please see the attached link). The graphics are outstanding and the avionics and flight dynamics seems to be as close to reality as possible. Will you recommend this great flying ship? It's a very expensive addon so I would like to know if it's worth the money?

If you're looking for "highly realistic," VirtualCol is the opposite of that. Folks on this forum can steer you the right direction if you give us an idea of what kind of flying you like to do (e.g. airliners or general aviation, etc.).

Hi Ken,

As far as I know, that plane is not especially popular/reputed in the community for its grahics, avionics or flight model.

EUR 21.96 rather sets this plane in the low-medium price tag. For example PMDG and FS Labs aircrafts are over USD 100.

Hello Ken,

Google these products to get study-level aircraft for P3Dv5.1:

PMDG (747, 737 already compatible; soon 777 for V5.1)

FSLABS (A319, 320, 321)

Leonardo Maddog (MD82/83)

Majestic Dash 8

I'm sure I’m forgetting some, this is just to get you stated 😎 

Cheers,

Pete

Actually, this one is just as good, but a little cheaper:

The Fisher Price plane looks good but it doesn't show as being available for P3d. Does anyone have it working in 4.5HF3?

This is better than the Fisher Price one:

So immersive, no concerns over compatibility and cheaper too...
