April 20, 20242 yr 40 USD includes a full cockpit which looks pretty good. This looks comparable to Carenado level product - not a bad thing if you're looking to buzz the skies with a classic C130. edit: I don't see anything about sounds... so they're probably using king air sounds which wouldn't be a good fit. https://captainsim.net/products/m130/m133/ Edited April 20, 20242 yr by ryanbatc | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

April 20, 20242 yr Looks good to me. Feels like this will turn out to have been an expensive few days for me! Ryzen 9 7900X, Corsair H150 AIO cooler, 64 Gb DDR5, Asus X670E Hero m/b, 3090ti, 13Tb NVMe, 8Tb SSD, 16Tb HD, 55" Philips 4k HDR monitor, EVGA 1600w ps, all in Corsair 7000D airflow case. Sims in use - 2020, 2024, XP-12 and -11, FSX/SE, P3Dv4.5 and v5.4. DCS and AFS2 installed but rarely used
April 20, 20242 yr Visually looking good, It will be interesting to see what the flight modelling is like, and what works in the cockpit. AMD Ryzen 7 5800x3d, MSI X570 Pro, 32 gb DDR4 3600 ram, Gigabyte 6800 16gb GPU, 1x 2tb Samsung NvMe , 1x 2tb Sabrent NvME, 1x Crucial 4tb Nvme M2 Drive
April 20, 20242 yr I think 'replica' is not a correct word for their products, but visually looks good as always Artur
April 20, 20242 yr That’s a pretty good looking VC I must admit. I’ll be interested to find out how it flies, sounds and if free repaints are available.

April 20, 20242 yr As far as I can remember from my FSX/P3D days, that VC is not just a port over. Good detail and textures.
April 20, 20242 yr If Captain Sim turns their company around they have SO MUCH potential. I Loved their products in the early sim days, had basically all of them! This cockpit looks incredible and seems to me they are heading back in the right direction. Yes it will be a while to gain respect and customers again but this might be the start!

April 20, 20242 yr Looks great! I like that they've built a "classic" version and not a -J Super Hercules, although that would have been cool too. My father flew these when I was a kid, so I have a lot of nostalgia looking at that cockpit. I hope they got the sounds right, the reverse thrust sound on these could make the hairs on your arms stand up.

April 20, 20242 yr Commercial Member Nothing about the flight model in the description is worrying, however it does look good.

They lost me years ago as a customer because of their way of selling you parts of a system instead of a complete aircraft. Their eye candy of the C130 was great but that's about all. they have to do a much better job with their C130 before I bite again.

April 20, 20242 yr Looking good ( was in the old FSX days ) is this a "working" Cockpit anyone knows ? This would be a NEW way of Captain Sim then, like back to the old FSX days..
