Ok guys! I read all your comments (and graphs!) regarding this issue. So what I am getting now is in line with what I should get and if I want to get more a 4000 series is needed. I will play a little with the sim settings to squeeze bit more fps… Thanks all!

Good day all, I've been out of the loop of the sims for some months, I had the possibility to assemble a new rig with an 7950x3D, 64gb 6400mhz...I have kept only my 3080ti. I was wondering what performance can I expect from MSFS with FSTL, Fenix and good sceneries at 1440p? More than 40/60 fps? Because at the moment I am quite disappointed and I quite sure that I may have something set wrong. Thanks all Francesco

My two cents on this product from what I have seen from the various videos/streams (I am type rated on the Ejets family): Flightdeck looks good in both proportions and modelling MCP is correct except for the green led lights on the autopilot selector buttons: they do not work on the real plane as Embraer wants pilots to look at the FMA not the MCP. Avionics: fonts are wrong, symbology is overall acceptable (EICAS ok and PFD ok). Navigation display on the MFD looks wrong. MCDU: the pages I have seen looks mostly incomplete or wrong. They claim to have used the LOAD 27 of the EPIC SUITE (the "operating system" of the EJets) on the plane that I fly usually we havethe LOAD25.7 so not the same system but I highly doubt there are such diffrences on the mcdu. Don't know about the flight model obviously...so I won't comment about that.

I don't understand what you mean.

Yes, we have seen the same behaviour here in Italy the first week. And someone still doesn't understand what a quarantine is. BTW to answer the topic question: I work for LH group (one of the many airline of the group) and I saw all my flights being cancelled and I still known nothing about April. I guess I still won't fly. I saw and heard the airline traffic disappear from Italian ACC during my last shift (was the first week of lockdown). Quite impressive, and while landing in FRA I saw a lot of LH plane parked on the taxyways. I'm 25 so I marginally lived 9/11 and seeing all that plane parked there like the photos of those days is quite scary.

This is the same attitude that our politicians had at the beginning here in Italy. Now look were it took us. Don't underestimae this thing. IT IS dangerous. Is not "just a flu".

I have made a post in their forums with some initial elements to be fixed. Problem is that my post is stil waiting for admin approval.

I am going to do a post on their forum with all the info. Right now I am collecting all the missing things/bugs that I found.

I have experience only on the E195: for what I have seen at the moment the aircraft is not really well made. I had to set the trim a 8UP to land it with flap 5 which is not even close to the real figures. Fuel capacity is totally wrong: real plane takes 13192Kg of fuel while this stops at 9330 (and I suspect that also the weights are wrong). Takeoff trim settings are way off, TO Thrust settings are not working, whatever FLEX TEMP you set it will give you always the same N1 value. The MCDU is incomplete: TO and LDG Pages are incomplete (No flaps setting, no temperature compensation). Anti Ice logic is not working (remains on for all the flight), FMA on takeoff gives you the wrong mode (LNAV is engaging while rolling, it should remain to ROLL and then switch to TRACK and at 400ft LNAV kicks in). These problems goes beyond the possible configurations that the plane can have. All this for 60$ (120$ if you buy all 4 planes)? Unacceptable.

Also: E195 fuel tanks capacity is 13120Kg while I can only get 9330Kg: I highly suspect that they are using the same weights figures for the 190/195.

Agree, It would be wonderful to have a "study" level rendition but I think that is not necessary: in the end, majority of the simmer just fly from A to B. But some of the things that are missing (IMO) are part of what I consider the "minimum equipement" in a 60$ (I paid 68 €) add-on, for this money I expect at least a VC that is correct in dimensions and proportions, high definition instruments (while here are not so HD), complete MCDU, and so on. But apart from these elements, I think that it's nice add-on to have and a great aircraft to fly. And I hope that feelthere will continue to work on this plane to improve it! Grazie, I'll report it in their forums!

No, I forgot to mention it.

Bought it (175 - 195 since I fly the 195 IRL), some first impressions: - Some MCDU pages are missing (like Flaps selection at TO and LDG, RTE send you to FPL, FIX page is incomplete) -Start Up procedure is ok, couple of thing missing (some EICAS messages) - AP is way too violent - in TRS TO-3 is missing - can't set the altimeters to STD: the click spot it's hard to find - Anti Ice remains ON after TO and never turn off during flight. - PFD/ND are a bit hard to read in some moments and some fonts overlaps - VC model is too big and proportions are wrong (not too big deal for me) - It's nice to hand fly -FPS are great, really light on the sim. - External model is super (even if on the 195 the 2R door is too big) - Pitch during the Approach it's WAY to high (on the 195): at flare I was at almost 20° with Flap 5. Hope to see some updates in the future to address some of these things, I think that 60$ it's a bit overpriced...for that money it should be better.

Well, they are clearly different. I don't think that video compression can muate colors and fonts so much! 🙂 Also I was talking about details that are different from what I see everyday in the office 😉

All the flightdeck seems modeled a bit oddly: the shapes are not super-accurate. The MCDU seems ok, pages are there but some of the colours, fonts and other details are wrong (they look like the old FS2004/FSX Embraer). Sounds are okayish. PFD and ND are correct, again fonts are wrong and the dimensions of the FD, speed/hdg bugs are a bit off. It looks like they can't use the original one maybe? But aside from these (mostly) graphic error: it looks okay. I really hoped to see something a bit more detailed, not PMDG/FSL but at least a little bit more curated. I am curious to know which Epic load they are simulating (Epic Load is the name of the main software of the Embraer: all different software have different name). Obviously I can't wait to try it! EDIT: Yes, the autopilot looks a bit too "reactive" from the videos, it's much more gentle IRL
