Downloading 😁

I'm really hoping this at €15 and the B247 at $20 are the start of a proper shift in add-on pricing that reflects the much larger market currently available

Some useful docs for RV-14

Somehow you always get to these first Tim hehe!  Thanks.  Will you be partaking?

So, it's fun. Pretty solid, can't find any faults. Not sure how often I will fly her but definitely worth the very reasonable price. Good for touring, great for sightseeing, lots of fun to chuck around when no one's looking. I'd say they've done a very good job. 

Looks and flies well, but my TDS/PMS screens are blank - work fine in all other aircraft.  When I select the TDS install, all of the screens are blank.  If I turn OFF the avionics, the co-pilots screen and the standby instruments turn on!  Logged the issue on SWS Discord.

You have the option to install a built in GTN750 or to use the separate package. Which did you choose? 

For that price it would be tough to say no...

I have purchased both the PMS and TDS units.  I have tried the PMS and TDS installs.

I feel the prop animation is poor.  The textures ahead of the aircraft are flickering. Surely the prop should be more or less invisible.

Yes please! 

By the way, I'd love to know if it was possible via a repaint to make my tail number on the dash an awful lot smaller. It's massive and quite distracting.

I saw that in the previews and thought it looked a bit off. For their Kodiak the prop is more or less invisible in flight and looks great.
