Is No One Flying The HJet / AAU1 Update?

Recommended Posts

It’s out at Contrail and Orbx I hear.  Sadly no Marketplace yet 🤨

I greased a landing at Catalina today and hope to download the update this AM.  I probably run the Lite version for performance.

Cheers

Marketplace is usually the tail dragger.  I recommend purchasing at TO or Orbx as those are not locked up like the Marketplace version will be.  Example of what that can affect is editing the aircraft.cfg file.  I am a tester and I edited aircraft.cfg to narrow the number of liveries in my base installation to just (6).  That capability also allows, for those that learn how, to incorporate addon liveries into the base/default model, thus eliminating the need to call them from the Community folder.

Your wait has been worth it!  😍

ORBX had it pretty much right at 2300Z as advertised. Just took it out for a quick test.

Recommend spending some study time in v2.0.  Yes, it adopts the excellent work by WT with AAUI.  Note that the Hjet has its own enhancements to best match the layout and implementation of the G3000 and GTCs  in the Hjet's namesake model.  Up to six screen presentations can be configured, two for each PFD and two  for the MFD. Each PFD and the MFD can also each go full screen.  The possible combinations are significant.  Navigation among and control of those differs based on whether the General Options/Accessibility/Cockpit Interaction System is set to Lock, or to Legacy. Can be a bit bewildering until you practice and master it.  There is a wealth of information at the FlightFX Discord and links to tutorial videos to help you with your mastery.

Is the G5000 better than the G3000? Newer with more advanced features and options?

Believe they are of a simillar vintage.  Content from a Garmin page:
 
What is the difference between G3000 and G5000?
The biggest difference between the G3000 and G5000 is the former is designed for smaller and lighter Part 23 aircraft, and the latter is designed to meet the more stringent Part 25 regulations which apply to the design of larger aircraft, including the transport aircraft used by the airlines.

I tested the "heavy" and "light" versions of the HJet. I saw a difference of 6 fps. (63 and 69). It doesn't really matter to me.
