As a gesture to this community, after all the miseries we have been through, Microsoft makes it a freeware unti the next hot fix  😋 !

Got it. One take off and one landing so far. Got to say, loving it. My kind of aircraft. Good price, thank you ASOBO.

Oh man, the saturation on that video is so over the top, is that how Xbox looks? In my opinion is a colouring aberration.

What niche does this fit when we have two similar Cubs? Would like to see interior.

It looks lovely.... but with all the cubs, this feels like more of the same.  Hoping they will do a tricycle LSA next, or a mainstream GA.

5 Cub-inspired, small, taildraggers is probably enough! 😃

So basically another default, drone-camera-like, sightseeing aircraft with no complex features like those found in A2A, Milviz, Simcoders etc, of course with the default Xbox "game" flight model included, optimized for Xbox game controllers.

They have the audacity to charge money for this? After they stabbed the "flight" simmer customers and complex 3rd party aircraft developers in the back with SU5?

Just checked my Microsoft account. February 2021 was the last time I bought something for this console game. It was around that time when I started smelling something fishy. Prior to that I was regularly buying multiple addons straight from the in-sim marketplace every month and encouraged others to do the same so that Microsoft too received a cut.

At the moment I’m on the verge of quitting and abandoning this platform for once and for all unless and until Microsoft apologize profusely in public and do something radical and revolutionary very quickly for the “flight” simmer customers and not gamers.

I think that there are way to many airliners already, all basically the same thing. To each his own.

I agree, but I wasn't talking about airliners.  I was talking about the inarguable abundance of Cub-framed GA in the sim, as default planes, as 3rd party addons, and now as official Asobo addons.  It's like the dimension plans of a Cub have been made open source, and everyone wants a bit of the $£$$!  😁

Absolutely agree each to their own, but come on, there are a heck of a lot of Cub-style taildraggers out there now.

As a GA, bush flying kind of guy.... I love this. These airplanes are the best way to see the sim. I fly the XCUB all over the place. The Vis is awesome... can fly up high, or at 100 feet. The husky looks pretty cool!
