iniBuilds A300-600 - Airliner Development Update 3

[DAD 2,656]

Agreed. Was diverted here. An own thread would make sense. Anyway, interested in this one. How’s performance? Have 3 ini sceneries and all could do better. Thus wondering whether the a300 is performance wise better or worse than eg Fenix and FBW?

First Impressions:

- Its harder on frames than the Fenix, around 10-20% lower (CPU Limited)

- Graphics and Sounds are awesome

- All the buttons and functions can be configured in the MSFS settings (at least the ones i tried, flaps, speedbrake,  autopilot settings (hdg, height, speed), Autothrust, Toga etc)

- The control settings from the A310 can be used. Except maybe the joystick and rudder curve settings.

- They are a lot of standard camera views, but not very useful ones. There is no one for the pedastal, fmc etc. Only very very close up views.

- the camera.cfg File from the A310 cant be copied simple over to the A300. The views are then in the wrong place.

 

I want to do a ferry flight for Fedex from Toulouse-Blagnac (LFBO) to the Memphis (KMEM) World Super Hub.

Anyone knows the route? (Non-Stop is too far says simbrief)

That’s what I was afraid of. Judging from their EGLL and KJFK scenery. Afraid I will pass for this reason

Agreed. Until they can improve their performance, I’ll be holding off on buying anything from them.

I get similar performance as with PMDG or Fenix

it's doing fine over here, no performance issue what so ever. It's the same as the fenix and pmdg. I don't understand how you go from a scenery performance and compare it to an aircraft performance?

You are missing out actually...

It’s more so their sceneries along with their A310 which also doesn’t perform well for me and others I know.

Looks intriguing.  Did they include terrain or a weather display for the ND?

WXR is there (same as A310) - Uses whatever the sim provides

Terrain - Not at the moment. They are looking at alternative ways for that as it caused performance issues if i remember correctly.

Oh that's a shame.  I guess I'll hold off.  😑

I know nothing about the A300.  Is it similar to setting up and flying the A320 or are there significant differences?

I'd say the differences are significant. but don't let that turn you away from the A300. It's a very rewarding machine to learn.

I'll keep my eye out for tutorials

It’s a really fun mix of Airbus and Boeing. Loved it in XP11. Look forward to trying it out tomorrow
