Yeah, I think I'll pass on this one. Got enough payware aircraft as it is. Waiting for the King Air 🙂

 

Repeats in his head over and over: "You're not gonna get this one, you've already spent a $$$$load of money on aircraft. You're not gonna get this one, you've already spent a $$$$load of money on aircraft. You're not gonna get this one, you've already spent a..."

That didn't work for me!

Has anyone flown the Carenado PC-12 in XPlane able to compare the two? The cockpit and interiors looks identical as far as I can tell, I'm wondering if there are any differences or if it's 100% the same 🤔

So, about 20 quid. Thanks. 

£20.99 to be exact.

The Avidyne MFD has more functionality in this version and the cockpit feels cleaner and better modelled.

It does have a weather screen but it is not functional as far as I can see.  Not surprising as the weather api is not implemented yet.

Weather radar is definitely working as I dial in different precipitation senarios.

Avionics are behaving pretty good so far.

The reviews will be out soon.  Their Aircraft can vary a bit in quality, but then again I even took their old C182 for a spin the other day, and it really wasn't  that bad with the WT G100NXi in it.  I flew in it for hours, it handled well, looked great and had no bugs.  It was a total a delight to fly.  A lot of people rate the Seminole as well as the other models I mentioned above.

I thought the C 182 was horrible. A couple of flights, and it is my hangar on blocks.

This is pretty much exactly what my inner voice is saying as my hand subconsciously ignores it and moves to the buy button haha.  Will try to hold out for the King Air mod and the SWS PC12 (plus I’ve been thinking about the JF Warrior) but resistance may be futile…

It looks like a pretty nice little aircraft but I've promised myself no more new payware aircraft unless/until someone releases a Diamond DA50RG for MSFS.

But maybe the reviews -- once they start showing up -- will weaken my resolve.

There is a pretty good amount of avionics functionality in this bird for ~ $32 CDN! Time will tell how well it works.  So far, so good!

I will be picking this up while I wait for SWS. Also the King air.

Anyone have any feed back on the Carenado Waco? I'm tempted to pick this up too.

Bought it for FSX & XP11 so will go for the trifecta...it's my favorite aircraft.  When SWS comes out with the glass cockpit version guess I'll buy that too.

It is well modelled, and it can fly alright, and nice sounds, but it swings to the left like a bassard on take of if you are not careful!  :biggrin: 

The problem is with it, I flew it about twice and it hasn't left the hangar since, as it is not really the kind of aircraft I picture myself in.  I got it at a sale price though so I don't regret it.

Call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind, but I prefer Rob.

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

The PC12 was always one of Carenado's better offerings in FSX/P3D so I'm definitely interested to see some early reviews.
