June 6, 20214 yr That's a lot of money for a low and slower and I'm not a fan of that cockpit modelling. Something just seems.. Off and I can't put my finger on it.

June 7, 20214 yr Author It offers a few different avionics configurations. I think I'll get it and give my impressions.

June 7, 20214 yr Yeah the cockpit's are a bit new and shiney for my personal taste but it comes with a paint kit so I just modified them myself. It is a matter of personal taste ( Just Flight with the Arrow went with a world weary worn out version and got criticised for that by people wanting a shiney new aircraft 😄 It seems you cannot win with flight sim addons no matter what you do) . The Orbx Jabiru is the same aircraft package as the Iris jabiru from the Iris website. There is also a marketplace version of the same aircraft BUT the marketplace download is about 6 or 8 weeks out of date (only version 1.3 instead of 1.4) so I would avoid that one for now. Buy direct or get it from Orbx. Note that the package contains two different airframes the 160 and the 170 with both glass and steam cockpits for each so four combos all up. You are basically getting 4 different aircraft with a batch of liveries and two bush trips. (the Victorian bush trip is very very good, the outback Queensland one for me less so, for me it was a bit monotonous, though that is more to do with western Queensland terrain being much of a muchness for 100s of miles at a time then anything else). The FM is overall pretty good within normal flight characteristics for the type, though they apparently gets a little unrealistic if you try and do things the aircraft is not actually rated to do in real life like Immelmans 😄 Other reported minor issues are the generic MS oversensitive steering and brakes on the ground unless you trim nose up and some people have reported a balance issue where it tends to yaw slightly in climb. Overall though they are are pretty good and they sit somewhere between a 152 and 172 in performance - for me, they seem reasonably close to the real ones (though admittedly I only have a few hours in jabirus) .

June 7, 20214 yr Author ORBX Central won't install on my AMD machine for some reason so I decided to give the Beech G36 a try. Really a nice default plane for low and not-so-slow IMO.

June 8, 20214 yr Very odd. AMD do have their issues, on rare occasions you see graphics drivers crashing unexpectedly on some systems (and working fine on other seemingly similar systems) and can be a PITA if your running esoteric stuff like machine learning or high end statistics packages, but generic Win10 consumer level software incompatibility is not really something I have come across Was it an AMD CPU or an AMD GPU causing issues ?
June 8, 20214 yr Author Not sure. Could be my goofy internet. bs AMD RYZEN 9 5900X 12 CORE CPU - ZOTAC RTX 3060Ti GPU - NZXT H510i ELITE CASE - EVO M.2 970 500GB DRIVE - 32GB XTREEM 4000 MEM - XPG GOLD 80+ 650 WATT PS - NZXT 280 HYBRID COOLER
