    Dear god of flightsims, please give us a Blacksquare Twin Otter Blacksquare Do 228.

    BlackSquare immunised me to Carenado. Just had a quick Google of Do228 cockpit photos. I think I can predict already some of the complaints soon after release. "Why don't the condition levers work" "

    Just bought it. Nice modeling and overall handling. EFB works well to switch out various instruments, including the TDS GTN750XI. Took a twenty min flight and all was expected/desired. I’m well plea

The center needle itself doesn't move though. The inner portion, the part that actually tells you if you're left or right of course. The pointer probably moves and "points" to the next waypoint, but the inner needle never deviates off center.

And lack of Glidepath is stupid... these are simple coding errors that take little effort to fix.

[Announcement] Carenado Do 228

This issue might not be noticeable to pilots who are accustomed to using only traditional analog HSI When the navigation source is set to GPS, the Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) on the EHSI(Aspen E

If people still buy these planes I guess Carenado doesn't see the point of putting in the effort

Pretty much what I've come to believe. I defended them pretty solidly for the last year, but I just think they don't understand what some instruments are supposed to do. Oddly enough, many other users don't understand how they work either haha.

I guess most of you just realized sooner. I do like their stuff that works though, Dakota, Centurion and the F33. For how cheap they are I think the working ones are worth it.

Yes, but it’s always such a word not allowed shoot, tho.

I gotta wonder why basic steam gauge instruments functions aren’t as packaged as the Gx000’s are…

Their last 3 or 4 have had major avionics issues. If you only fly VFR they're fine.

Carenado would have to make a Cheyenne 400LS - then I'd become weak at the knees LOL

Then a Blacksquare Cheyenne 400LS would render you unconscious. 🤣

I'm tempted to get this for one particular route: ENSB to ENAS.

Did you see the video by "GA Flying" on YouTube? He did that exact flight 😎

I didn't - but I'll have to check it out!

Did he use the flightsim.to addon I linked to above?

Yes 👍

Here it is :-

Sometimes the pace of his videos are a little slow, but I love the laid-back, relaxed style and the 'non-ego'.

Just bought the DO228 for this afternoon’s entertainment- an Aurigny training flight doing circuits at Guernsey.

Again, I’m quite impressed, did some single engine work and it handled really nicely , it’s one of the few aircraft I’ve flown in the sim where the prop actually feathers properly and sits stationary rather than windmilling in the airflow.

The flightdeck looks great in VR too.
