SWS Vans RV-14 is delayed

[6297J 692]

 

Disappointing - this was due to be released on Monday.

We decided to postpone the release of the RV-14, as we want to polish the taildragger's ground handling a bit more. While a singular problem that mainly stems from MSFS' flight modelling, we want to ensure that the aircraft ticks every box and gives you the right feel for Van's Aircraft latest & greatest!

In the meantime, you can watch aircraft's trailer here:

Disappointing, but good on the developers to get it right.

I can imagine Van's Aircraft Corporation breathing down SWS's necks. They'll be the toughest beta testers EVAH!

The RV6A was my favorite aircraft back in MS Flight days. I really look forward to this new great rendition.

I love this airplane.... but I hate the avionics... we will see if I bite.

Are you kidding me? 🙂

The Garmin G3X Touch is so fun/easy to work with compared to the clunky button interface of the G1000/ NXI.
I really enjoy flying with it. Very bizjet-style of information (overload!)

A very great unit indeed, but its virtual counterpart in MSFS leaves a lot to be desired, even with the latest Working Title mod. Fortunately that will all get better in the future.

Ah

I probably misunderstood. Will it be delivered with default avionics component? 
Bummer....

I haven't heard otherwise, but like I said, WT is working on the default MSFS units, so the G3X will only get better.

Same....well aside from the tds gtn Xi - I'd love that and an analogue panel if possible.

Even with WT the G3X is still pretty bad...nothing like the real one imo.

This is what will keep me away from this one, even though I love the developer.  With units like the TDS GTN 750 and WT G1000nxi available, I would not like a poor nav unit.
