November 26, 20214 yr So I see that the Training Edition is available at a discount of 74.96 euros versus the list price of 99.99 euros. I know it gets excellent reviews. But I do have a question for the experts, I mostly fly FS Labs, PDMG and Leonardo. Should I expect something of that quality here? Also, I'm not a turboprop expert (I've spent a little time with the TBM) is it hard to get up to speed?

Yes 1 hour ago, Iadbound said: 'm not a turboprop expert (I've spent a little time with the TBM) is it hard to get up to speed? No. The Prop handling is fairly straight forward in the Q400. Basically you operate the prop levers (or condition levers rather) through different detents during your flight 1020 RPM (TO + APPR) 900 RPM (CLB) 850 RPM (CLB/CRZ/ Low noise APPR) The Torque is set via conventional power levers. She is a rocket though, with those powerful PW100's. Things happen pretty fast during TO and initial climb . Also mind the weak yaw damper, the nose will want to yaw during departure, so rudder trim is a good advice. 😅 Edited November 26, 20214 yr by SAS443 EASA PPL SEPL + NQ / CB-IR in progress MSFS24 | X-Plane 12
November 26, 20214 yr Thanks everyone for great and insightful posts. I’m going to give it a go! Seems like Majestic rarely offers discounts and the new version will get the updated-updated visuals too, so I’m taking the plunge.
November 27, 20214 yr If you're used to the FSL A320 or PMDG's Boeings, you're in for a ride with the Q400. There's a lot more to handle, in part due to less automation, especially in single pilot operations. But it's also so much more fun, and overall a very rewarding experience.
November 27, 20214 yr Agree. This plane is far more challenging to fly. Which also means far more rewarding. 5800X3D, 4090FE, 64GB DDR4 3600C16, Gigabyte X570S MB, EVO 970 M.2's, Alienware 3821DW and 2 22" monitors, Corsair RM1000x PSU, 360MM MSI MEG, MFG Crosswind, T16000M Stick, Boeing TCA Yoke/Throttle, Skalarki MCDU and FCU, Logitech Radio Panel/Switch Panel, Spad.Next

My landings in the Q400 are a coin toss between 'ok' and looking like either this landing, this one or this one. Seems like I am equally as good as the pros! 😆 Great aircraft.

November 27, 20214 yr I remember the Majestic Dash not having the same power and climb performance as the real one. Is it fixed with the Training Version?

November 27, 20214 yr Still not out on Justflight 😞 Would really like to try this new version.. PC- AMD Ryzen 7800X3D, 64gb 6400mhz RAM, Nvidia RTX4090

The Q400 is a monster.... I found an interesting discussion on that topic: http://majesticsoftware.com/forums/discussion/737/this-a-c-is-underpowered Maybe you have felt differently and you know the A/C from daily business? Let us know. PS: I don't know what you meant by "aerosoft version".
November 28, 20214 yr @crosswind @Tokitaumelie Any update about availability from JustFlight? Or is there anyway I can have the upgrade discount from another site? Would really love to get this plane 😞 PC- AMD Ryzen 7800X3D, 64gb 6400mhz RAM, Nvidia RTX4090
