FSLabs NEO or wait for FENIX? (MSFS2020)

I'd say the A321 is comparable to the PMDG 738 I own

If it's PMDG level I can live with that. Heck, if it's better than the INI 21n I'll be fine.

  • I have the FSL CEO and NEO and they are my go to aircraft at the moment in MSFS2024. I do have the Fenix A320 too but haven't flown it for a few months. I'll try and give some points as to why I like

  • I've owned fenix since release. Have hundreds of hours on it. I purchased the FSLabs CEO when released for 2020 and now the Neo. Guess whick airbuses I no longer fly? Yes the Fenix. The FSLABs has a m

They certainly aren't bad, it's just FENIX set a very high bar....

 

Yes, good point. 

9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung,  AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.

I think if the model/textures are at least PMDG standard that’s fine for me.  
 

one more question….is the in depth GSX a requirement? I don’t always have time to load the aircraft in real time before a flight (just like to get going….so in Fenix and PMDG I can instant load the fuel etc…is that possible?

Yes, you can just enter fuel and payload directly into the MCDU, distribution is automatic.

You can add fuel using the refuelling panel under the wing (accessible through a web browser).

Thank you.  
 

I’m swaying closer and closer now.  I particularly like the suggestion that the flight model is better (landing the Fenix is a pain even in calm weather!)

I imagine it's easier to improve textures than the simulation of complex flight systems, so hopefully FSL will work on improving visuals soon.

If that is so easy then why didn't they? They had 5 years for what is essential a portover and they did not seem to have touched the artwork much and chose to focus on systems modeling instead.

Which is fine, but that's all that is. Not a matter of what is difficult and what is easy. They just neglected the visual part in those 5 years.

So would you say for someone who hasn’t bought this yet, that it’s poor value?  I’m trying to knock myself off the fence but it’s £65 which isn’t cheap!

No, It's just what you personally value more.

 

I didn't buy it and don't intend to. I watched my favourite streamers fly the thing, many of them real world pilots rated on the Airbus as well. 

What it does better than the Fenix is simulate the complete daily operations of a pilot. And that's quite the thing. But i does not fly better (except in the flare) and it does not sound or look better than the Fenix.

 

It's a different design concept, but not a better one. It gives customers a choice on equal level. Personally I think they came to the market too late and the last thing I would recommend is people buy it out of impatience because they can't wait for Fenix to release the BFU and their NEO's.

If you already own the Fenix package, wait. If you don't, pick the one that tickles you more, you will not be dissappointed by either of them.

I think you’re right. I have the Fenix. Which is far better value.  I think I’ll wait and stop being impatient.

I’ll save the money for the 757 whenever that comes! 

Crazy how many people only care about Visuals and dismiss a Great A321Neo add-on.

I will agree with other's as well, the FSLabs feels way better to hand fly.

I will be getting this on the upcoming hollidays for sure...

It stands with the Dukes , Aerostar and TIME 🙂
