October 30, 2025Oct 30 I'm curious to see how the new rudder feels. I know this was a hot topic back in the day, but I struggled to even control the thing on takeoff with any kind of light crosswind. I'm stuck waiting for the marketplace update so I can't try it out. ------------------------- Craig from KBUF
October 30, 2025Oct 30 @kerosene31 I will give my 02cents. The plane flies much better with regards to rudder control/handling vs previous versions. I took off for a rip from word not allowed conditions out of CYSH. Handling was improved on takeoff roll/rotation. Will sound off to speak to the landing when down. Landing CYSB...10 knots bang on the nose...landing/taxi was as expected. No event. I'm pleased with the update. Edited October 30, 2025Oct 30 by dusty_sourdough907
October 30, 2025Oct 30 Just flew with a fellow captain who flew one of these on his days off. I asked him what it was like to fly, he confirmed that it was nice to fly and didn’t have any issues with the rudder control on approach. 787 captain.

October 30, 2025Oct 30 The problem I remember was specific to takeoff. You'd hit a certain speed and you'd need a completely different amount of rudder. It was meant to simulate some system, but it seemed to make it hard to hold the centerline in any takeoff. A 7 knot crosswind would put me in the grass. It was not just a trim issue, you needed to be really fast on the pedals and I couldn't do it. Edited October 30, 2025Oct 30 by kerosene31 ------------------------- Craig from KBUF

It was not just a trim issue, you needed to be really fast on the pedals and I couldn't do it. Yep. Approach & landing was fairly ridiculous as well. Basically, "slow flight". I put it away awhile ago and take it back out every once in awhile, esp if there's an FM update like this one.
October 31, 2025Oct 31 This update is very interesting to me. Firstly, I love the PC12 IRL and the SWS version has great sounds, textures and systems. But on launch it was absolutely awful to fly because of the slow speed mess mentioned about. It would float towards the runway, almost sideways - even with no crosswind! 😄 Anyway, I was away from the hobby for 18 months, until about 6 weeks ago. When I reinstalled and flew the latest version of the SWS PC12, I thought it flew great! I've been flying it every couple of days since then. SWS have badly messed the FDE up a few times with this plane, so I am going to be very careful about this update. I will download and try it, but as my purchase is from their website (as opposed to the MP), I am able to hold on to my current version of the PC12, and if the new one is funky again, at least I'll still have the current version to revert to.

October 31, 2025Oct 31 Glad to hear it's improved. The launch wasn't the best.... still, one of my favorite planes.

October 31, 2025Oct 31 It doesn't look like this update made it to the marketplace yet unfortunately. At least the version didn't update (I know that's a downside of the marketplace). ------------------------- Craig from KBUF

I was able to get into the site after resetting my password. Thanks for that. However now it says I have no product at the site. Course I cant find my email confirming my order. errrrr Ron MSFS 2024 -Too many airplanes to name. Too many airports to name.
October 31, 2025Oct 31 Did one circuit….first flight in a year because i was so dismayed witht the risicukous fkight model. Howver this was much improved, behaviour much more realistic and preditable and stable. Much better. Although as a side note since its been so long since flew it i can say some of the cockpit texturing is looking kind of dated now. AMD 5830X Nvidia RTX 3060 Win 11
