Had an update,  [319.58 mb], for the subject aircraft just come through the Market place.

Anyone know where I can find the change log?

Had this today, don't know a change log but i see after look at the folder some changes been made with some flight model and systems flies also more or less all models LOD has changed aswell..

cheers 😉

Perhaps it's just my imagination, but  seems more stable on takeoff and landings. Doesn't seem squirrely as before.  I glanced at the airspeed and noticed it was reading little over 180.. but this was in MPH not KPH. My first notion was that's a little high, but that's really around 156 Knots. I wish they'd update the engine sounds. Almost sounds like a chain saw. Buzzes too much. Only sounds like a radial on startup, even then it's weak.

Somebody knows if the AP Heading Mode was corrected on the retrofitted version with this update?

Only the dc3-enhanced package was updated so i don`t think so..

You could try this mod : Duckworks DC-3 for Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS

from the improvments section:           - heading select enabled for the retrofitted versions

 

cheers 😉

Thanks, I know this mod claims that, but I did not want to use any mods over an updated package. It's surprising to me how far these AH people have left this airplane without a proper AP Heading mode, since its release.

OK, that's your choice, but to say the mod is great, using it a lot before i tested the unmoded AH DC-3 so like it much more with the mod.. 

And by the way IMO, the whole DC-3 should be updated and optimized from the Developer ( AH ) i got sometimes sutters at airports and by zooming towards the plane what i not see at any other planes.

Also high up in the air looking from the outside camera , doeing nothing, i am seeing short stutters here and there.

Sometimes i assume it has to do with the Propeller animation but not shure about that..

cheers 😉

Would still like to see a Mods list for this update.

Any ideas where it might be located?

Remember they have sold the whole thing to Microsoft, so it's for MSFS to update it or hire AH to update it (apart from the livery pack which AH provided)

But i don't think they ( MS ) do that updates, AH have spezial coded gauges and things like that what i not belive could be done ore would be done from MS, i think AH has a contract that they also take over that updates, would actually be logical but it can also be I'm wrong..

cheers 😉

No, I was wrong 🙂

As part of our contractual obligations, the DC-3 will be subject to a continuous programme of upgrades, improvements and enhancements, just like our regular products. The DC-3 is an aeroplane very dear to our hearts and we want to ensure we can deliver the very best we can. So for those of you who are making assumptions and erroneous conjecture, stop.

Also, those who have been critical of Asobo with regard to the DC-3, you are firing at the wrong target. We are contracted to Microsoft and the DC-3 is a Microsoft product. We are in complete agreement over the future of the DC-3. We would never have agreed to do this project had that not been the case.

We are already assembling a list of bug-fixes and improvements based on comment in forums and from the MS Beta Team. Also, we are currently at work on a series of real-world liveries which we will distribute absoolutely FREE as a series of livery packs. This will effectively add up to 24 new RW liveries t your collections!

So,in the meantime, continue to enjoy this fabulous 40th Anniversary gift from Microsoft and know, from us here at AH, the journey is far from over.

 

Yeah, all the third party aircraft with the Anniversary edition are maintained by their creators.
