Looks good. Still waiting for these demonstrations to show an RNAV approach to see how far they have moved that development needle. Unfortunately still an ILS approach. I know i know i am only focusing on a single issue but everyone has their special feature that they are looking for and with the A320NX and the A380 this is one of the top issues for me personally.

This one will be a lot of fun to fly. FBW is doing amazing work, and we should support them as a community.

Fantastic job by FBW on this A380... I hope they decide to release an alpha version, even if it's not complete. They deserve all our support.

FSElite has a summary up: https://fselite.net/content/flybywire-shares-new-a380x-developer-update-in-new-podcast/

Some stuff of note to me:

  • Dave also spent time speaking about his work on the hydraulic and flight control systems. There are lots of physics-based behaviours with the plane, including wing flex and engine wobble. There is also realistic movement as the plane is fueling and when you enter areas of turbulence. They have also simulated redundancy systems for added realism.
  • Overall, the team is aiming to achieve a high level of simulation with the A380X, including real-time behaviour changes like overheating conditions and pressure failures, which then have a dynamic impact on the aircraft
  • No specific release date was mentioned. However, the team said that they are looking to release a ‘development preview’ version to the community to contribute to testing and providing feedback. The team will then continue to improve the plane based on this, just as they did with the A32NX.
  • One of the biggest questions of course is whether the A380X by FlyByWire Simulations will come to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Whilst the team is excited by what the new simulator will have to offer, they are focused on MSFS 2020 right now and will assess how to port the plane over once MSFS 2024 is out.

Waiting somewhat patiently for this.
