Moving is really tough - I have always found it be stressful.

If you already have the premium deluxe the longitude is already free and it's much much nicer than what we had 8 months ago...  And even if you don't have premium...the CJ4 is free and is also very very good now.  The original was not good.

I'd try both of those - I think you'll really like the CJ4...it's similar to the phenom but a bit faster.

I do indeed have the premium deluxe .... just looking forward to getting back into it.  I have been doing all the updates etc whilst not flying and MSFS is playing nicely, ie loads normally etc. I just cannot fly because I have not had the room/space to set up my controls (trim wheel, yoke, pedals and extra throttle quads)   

As for the moving, I had a 21 year career with the Defence Force (RAAF) and in that 21 years, I had 17 residential moves and 14 of those were interstate which involved new house, schools etc. I have to say that after those experiences, this move, whilst painfully slow, has been relatively stress free.

I have the Carenado Phenom 300 (it's for P3D) and it got me interested in the Phenom 300's in general.  I would love to see it in MSFS and I can tell you if FSReborn does it, it'll be way, way better than default.  Not "somewhat better".

I could not agree with you more fully. 

I do not have any FsReborn products but I have followed Simbol. I was not aware that it was him who was doing this aircraft.  I will say that I have renewed confidence.

Thanks for your comment

Thanks also to all the other posts

Wish you guys still flew the F-111's, but I guess they aged out.

Of course we know about AILightsReborn but I can also say that with the FSReborn Sting, you can really tell he took the time to go into great detail on that airplane.  Doing the same to a Phenom 300 may take a long time.  But a creation like that would be worth it.  At least no CAPS parachute needs to be modelled.

Mace, 

My no so fondest memory of the F-111 was standing under a wing whilst guarding the Duke of Edinburghs VIP aircraft, which, I think was during the RAAF Diamond Jubilee. 

Strangely, I never got to see the Duke but I did grow to hate his !%#$)&^@@))y aircraft lol,  

Another strange thing is that the wing of an F-111 does not provide a great deal of comfort on a cold, wet and windy night.

They were a great aircraft though, for sure.

You and me both. I have Xplane, and everything I ever got from Aerobask was top notch. Great dev. Unfortunately I don't have time to keep up with 2 sims so I haven't messed with Xplane in quite some time. But if they started releasing for MSFS their stuff would all be a day-1 purchase for me.

The good news is that after the AUU1 update, the default G3000 is really good, so if he did the 300e version he could save a lot of time.

 

Maybe Carenado will port their version over to MSFS 2020, and we can just slap AAU1-upgraded avioncis package into it.

I am building the 300E version indeed. There is a lot to learn from the G3000 plugin, we just got documentation with SU12. I am estimating most of the hard work for the project is actually learning the G3000 plugins ins / out measured in Months.. but it is all part of the fun anyway.

Yeah, but will there be an EFB? 😉

 

Just kidding - best of luck with the project. I'm looking forward to buying it!

Yes, there is an EFB. The Sting S4 has one, the M500 coming out soon has a new EFB that I been developing for 3+ months with lots of IFR requirements thinking ahead of time to be used by all my future fleet.

So Phenom 300E will receive the benefits of all the technologies I been developing since S4.. 😉

why reinvent the wheel and not use the default AAU1 package? Licensing issues?

the AAU1 package is just giving you plugins to build your own avionics. The entire TBM G3000 for example, all the displays are made customs via plugins with the name of TBMF300.js etc. and the behaviors are custom for how the G3000 behaves for that particular airplane.

The Phenom 300E has it own systems, that behaves differently from a TBM950 obviusly. I cannot just take a copy paste of what the TBM plugin system has and paste it to the Phenom 300E, it is not suitable, things will not match at all! I don't make frankesitain airplanes, therefore althought I can follow the examples from TBM and the documentation from all the amazing work WT has done, the reality is I need to write a plugin system for the Phenom300E, so all the pages, systems, CAS, Alerts, Failures, Behaviors, etc. matches the real aircraft.

Or do you rather have a pretty external model Phenom300E with TBM950 systems?

See my point now?

Best,
Raul

Hi, I used to fly the carenado phenom 300 on fsx and loved it.

Is the sim federation fs2020 version better than the old fsx carenado one?

Not even close. Save your money for another day.

uses the default CJ4 flight model.

That's a Pitty. 

I'm really trying to like the wt cj4, but there's something about it i just can't get on with.

Hopefully something will come along, but with fs2024 just around the corner I don't know if the aircraft developers will still keep making stuff for 2020. Fingers crossed eh 😆. 

Thanks for the advice.
