Nothing about the flight model in the description is worrying, however it does look good. 

As mentioned above, more info. What addons are you using?

Hi all, hope you've enjoyed our little scenery. Our next project is going to be a little more bigger and full of new roads and bridges 😉

For the meantime, thanks to all who have supported us!

Due to quite a few requests, we are currently working on a small fictional fun pack with helipads scattered around YRAY, if you have any suggestions for helipad locations, let me know!. It will be a seperate package.

Cheers,

Rick 

I'm a simple man, the 767 with the good ol rb211's.

Looks amazing Rick. Just got a copy, and will have a play later. Very much my kind of thing.

Andy, I really hope you enjoy it! Let me know if you have any feedback and we will get onto it.

I missed what your original price was but this looks great mate.  Going to grab it for sure.  Always keen to support new developers looking to get their feet on the ground.

Just curious, do you have any other Australian seaplane bases in the works?

Jase

@JaseMelbo thank you so much for the comment and support, the original price was around the $20AUD mark, including gst. I think the previous comments do have weight, it was priced a little too high once you take it from a different angle as mentioned by @AnkH. So I was ok with lowering the price. 

Regarding other seaplane bases, if you have any recommondations send them through to me on our instagram or discord and ill look into it 🙂

Our goal is to work with the FS community and give them what they want.

they seem to crash a plane every few years

@jason74 we are simply modeling the Sea Plane Base, Empire Lounge, Shark Island and Cottage Point Inn, we cant speak on any incidents related to any carriers or companies.

Looks beautiful, but the price tag is waaaaaaay to high for what you finally get. Even in the trailer several scenes will only look good with ORBX Cityscape Sydney installed, so it is basically an enhancement of this addon making the price tag even more absurd. Sorry to say...

Thanks @AnkH, you raise a very good point about it, in regards to looking good with ORBX's Cityscape, I've now spoken to the everyone and advised to lower the pricing slightly. It is our first ever product so we are still adjusting to the market and feedback like yours is essential. We're going for $14.99 + gst which I think is more fair. Once it has its approval, it should reflect on the page.

*Edit* The price has been approved at AUD $14.99+gst / hope this fits better with the product.  

Hi all, Pyramid 8 Studios YRAY Sydney Seaplanes is out now on ORBX for MSFS.

Please join our discord for support https://discord.gg/gP3UjZjQ, also happy to talk here.

Hope you all enjoy and have fun with our first product, always looking for feedback too! Let me know what you all think:

lol these forums can be pure comedy sometimes. Just chill mate.  
 

check for duplicate bindings on peripherals.

I think when it comes to ground handling this is one of the best that’s been modelled. It was good before the update and even better now. The aircraft feels heavy as it should and loses momentum as you turn. You’ll have to be in the su15 beta from what I recall, to see these new ground handling effects.

LOL. Falcon or a Gulfstream. 

I’m going with Falcon, I think Gulfstream still has a heavy stance on flight simulator products, which is shame. Would prefer a Gulstream.

My money is on a biz jet. 

I think some people are underestimating the market in MSFS now, it’s not so “niche”. Not your GTA or Battlefield numbers but compared to our days pre MSFS, it’s healthy I would say. There’s a reason people are jumping into development now. Thats my take anyway.

Looks brilliant, never had it in p3d, can anyone chime in how well the systems are modelled?

Final shots! Enjoy 🙂

Exactly - you have written much better than what I wrote earlier - the rudder keeps "Twitching" - and needs calibrating 

or dumping  --- which is what might solve my problems

Try adding a deadzone if its not deviated too much.

Maybe, they not realy 100% shure but they told us ( the people who are afected with this issue like me..) to Test out this NEW V.1.0.7.

My hope is BIG..

cheers 😉

I wonder if they could somewhat trace this back to FSrealistic, one of the options on that was causing the same type of thing in the Fenix back when first released. I think it was the low altitude turbulence or something like that.

Erm, let me think. What could you do about this problem of yours......   Don't look at the previews?

Why do I get a feeling if they didn’t show any previews, he would complain about not enough communication. The good old flight sim forum world…

Just tried the TBM and taxi / rolling was smoothest it has ever been...

Please see previous posts to understand the context of my statement...

"The whole feeling of rails..." was almost entirely about the way they flew, not the way they rolled.

All one has to do is compare a P3D A2A Sims addon to any similar aircraft.

Yes but it did translate to how the plane reacted on the ground because there wasn’t a great transition between the two. Also, the friction model was extremely basic.

You have to be kidding? My 737NGX and 777 (the older version before they updated the ground handling model) in P3Dv4 felt like they had plenty of weight. My current 737-600 in MSFS feels as light as a feather in comparison.

I disagree strongly, the friction model the weight and compression model wasn’t as detailed as it is now. Many more parameters and contact points. The whole feeling of rails debate was about this…It was literally a downside of the older sims.

I just want the kind of ground handling that I enjoyed in P3Dv4. I don't need it to be real world realistic. I just need it to work.

No thanks to that. Planes felt like they had no weight on the ground in older sims. Check your assignments as mentioned by others. Right curves and sensitivity is all you need. 

First flight in progress from YBBN to YSSY. Inibuilds a300

So far:

1. Better performance
2. Clouds and weather seem better
3. Getting lighting and thunderstorms in clouds out of YBBN
4. Not sure if handling is better since it hasnt been activated on the a300 im assuming, but does handle a little better on ground. Might be placebo.

any way to fill this bird with fuel without the engines off ?  I just don't have the time, cause every once in a while I get a crash in this plane, unlike PMDG 737's.

Never understood why some people just throw in the "unlike pmdg 737's." or "unlike (fill in the blank)"  in a comment. Its totally irrelevant one to the topic and two to your own question. PMDG 737s have nothing to do with the INIBUILDS a300.
