According to their facebook page, the new upgrade is out and I'm downloading from the Org Store now! If you don't know what REP is, it's an acronym for Reality Expansion Pack and it improves the realism on the aircraft that it's been designed for. It's a fantastic product and turns the Carenado planes (mediocre in terms of fidelity completeness) into high fidelity beasties . It's changed my flying for the better (made me a better pilot) and is hugely satisfying; once you go REP you can never go back lol. I believe it's similar to the A2A addon but as I don't own that addon I can't vouch for that. Here's the announcement http://www.simcoders.com/2016/06/30/rep-v2-5-0/

This was a very relaxed after-work flight from Mauritius to La Réunion, in the REP-enhanced Carenado CT210M. REP (Reality Expansion Pack) by SimCoders changes the aircraft's systems to work in a realistic way, and I'm really excited of it. If you don't take care, you'll experience a flooded engine, vapor locks, avionics failures, etc. Cylinders, tires, gear, and battery will suffer if you don't treat them properly. You have to use the correct type of oil and you need to change it regularly. The aircraft's state is saved between sessions, so you need to check everything before the next flight. Engine and flight performance now match the book. REP also enhances the sounds, so for example wind is blowing depending on aircraft condition. Basically, REP and CT210M combined give you the first General Aviation aircraft in X-Plane which is comparable to A2A in FSX. I guess A2A aircraft are even more deeper, and have nicer menus. REP is not 100% perfect, but really close. I'm very happy that X-Plane users finally have a GA aircraft with deep systems. I don't think I'll fly other GA aircraft for the next few months or so. (Okay, sorry, this sounded like advertising, but it isn't. It's my honest opinion.)
