INTRODUCTION:
This is the sleek, high performance French 4 seater 'Trinidad' by Socata Aerospace in France. This 250HP Turbocharged Edition of the Trinidad line, the TB-21 GT, was a fast cruiser, hitting cruise speeds of 200 MPH or 180+ Knots. Some were fitted with oxygen systems for high altitude cruising, up to 25,000 feet ASL. She was designed with a very advanced interior with automotive style instrument panel featuring 'instrument pods' similar to the Lotus Esprit and Lamborghini Countach of that era. Even today, her instrument panel design is more advanced in appearence to other manufacturers.

A really good plane made by a designer dedicated to make the best product possible, the number of updates and improvements this planes has received is staggering. Lionheart Creations is willing to rebuild parts of his plane from scratch if it means addressing criticism and improving it.

Positives:-
- Relatively good fun to fly
- Quite good modelling
Negatives:-
- Some really dubious texturing (ex-FSX textures)
- No switch sounds, door sound, external wind w/door opened
- In fact no custom sounds at all; just stock Asobo
- Autopilot is a mess. Glideslope has two tactics; 0 FPM or 1000 FPM
- No rain effects on windscreen, when raining outside
In summary, a really rather low quality offering. Feels completely unfinished, or like the dev has not yet learned the full MSFS SDK. Too expensive for this below par level of quality. Hasn't bothered with immersive interior sounds, hasn't bothered to map rain effects. Although the textures may be hi res, this means nothing if the base source textures are of such low quality (look at the Socata logo on the yoke). Really feels like a dev just cashing in on MSFS by crudely getting a FSX model pushed into the new sim - in a low quality and unfinished state.

Not a bad flyer, but not outstanding either.
At the moment there are still errors with the lights that LH does not seem to care about.
I wrote an email and haven't received a response for almost 10 days.
For now my last flyer from Lionheart Creation ...

The 4.1 update is a game changer in terms of fps (no more low fps as with pre-v4 version).
It is a solid aircraft reflecting well its real life counterpart. A definite part of my virtual hangar.
The devs are also actively working on the title (check the update history) unlike some other devs, which deserves recognition on its own.

Overall not very impressed. To me, this is not any better than the quality of the default aircraft provided with MSFS.
Pros:
-Many cool visual details like charts, Paper POH, pens & cigarette lighter
-Animated Cargo door
-22 Liveries
Cons:
-Very unimpressive low-resolution 2D instruments, with a clock that doesn't have a working timer
-A disappointing amount of non-function elements for a simple aircraft.
-Exterior textures are not at all "extreme high-resolution", if so they at least don't look that way.
-Interior textures are not uniform in resolution and give a very fake-looking interior. The glossy plastic material that is used in many payware aircraft just looks so out of place.
-The instrument lighting is very bright and not adjustable
-The cockpit lighting is also not variable and not realistically modeled like in many of the other planes for MSFS
-This is just my personal opinion, but while the wide selection of liveries is nice, I think most of them are very similar and not very stylish.

Plane flies "OK", it climbs like a ROCKET! However the instruments look like flat 2d paper images. For some reason Autopilot controls [NAV, HDG, Alt, VS] do not work with Logitech Multi-panel. Odd because flap control and trim on the multi-panel function normal. The display on the Logitech multi-panel shows blank only in this plane. Almost as if simconnect is disabled for this plane. The Autopilot does however work by simply using the mouse as normal. I would say my system performs very well on ultra settings with all other planes, but for some reason ONLY this plane seems to kill FPS even with my RTX 3090 overclocked after about 10 mins. Flight is irrecoverable. Need to return to main menu. I've tried to like this plane, but it needs work for me to be able to fly it more than a short hop. This could be a decent plane if the developer would recognize faults and correct. There was an update that did make overall improvements to the plane in the past so i'm hopeful for more.

In the meantime, the developer has released version 3.6. I find the plane is easy to fly by hand and I have a lot of fun exploring the world with it. My Honeycomb Yoke recognises all the buttons and they work as they should.
Overall, I can really recommend the Trinidad. A plane at a great price.

Recently purchased this plane and I can't say I am very impressed..
Overall quality of the model & textures is ok but not great. Definitely a lot of room for improvement.
Flight dynamics feel questionable at best especially compared to other similar size and layout aircraft. This plane feels like an old car, doesn't look too bad is fiddly and handles like crap.
I would love to get a refund but on the flip side it wasn't expensive and maybe they will update it to the point it actually is good. Once can only hope.

It's not very good, but not too bad.
The plane itself is beautiful, but the texture needs to be refined. It looks rough when you zoom in，especially the Air Speed Indicator.
In addition to the problems others have found, there are a few bugs that need to be fixed.I have encountered and can confirm that:
The alternator doesn't work even though it's on(someone in the Msfs forum told this too), the battery will continue to drain and then blackout. Navigation, radio, autopilot, fuel indicator will fail, and even the landing gear will not lay down.
In addition, the rudder trim and fuel tank switching reversed while using middle mouse wheel.
The rudder-trim does not really
work(but the number changes), while it can take effect with the binding key.
Over all, I like this plane, fly fast and smooth. And the dev seems work hard on the patch. So, It will be 4 stars after some improvements.
-------------------------------------------------------
After a few rounds of patches, the plane is fully functional and looking good.
I wish it would be perfect to optimized a little more on FPS in the Cockpit.

3.8 stars. Not 4, not yet. I fly mostly in VR so everything I say is based on VR experience with the aircraft. Not sure if the developer designed this plane for VR. Also most things are my personal opinion so what one thing brothers me maybe it is something you can live with. This review is also based on 3.4 version.
Overall the aircraft performs well and is a real climber. Once at cruise, you have no problem getting to the yellow arch and slows nicely when you get the wheels and flaps down for approach. Outside model looks fine and overall textures are okay. Animation of the exterior gear and flaps look good along with the gull wing doors.
Interior could use some help. Since I am a VR pilot, that's where I have the strongest opinions for an aircraft. Texture of the cockpit panel and door panels seen a little "course" for me. Also the yoke seems huge. I looked at some real pictures of the Trinidad, and it looks large in the reference photos, but it seems to big in the model. I usually turn them off because they are a little distracting. The one thing that I wish would get fixed is the gauges. They are 2D, be nice if they were 3D, and I know this would be a lot of work to make them 3D. The GPS units displays look great. Color of the displays are spot on.
Systems are okay, but this is also just a single engine aircraft, so there are not that many systems to model. Auto pilot works okay, once your figure out how it works. The GPS/NAV mode floats off course and after a few miles it will bank back on course.
It is a nice aircraft for the price, and I have had it since its release. There were a lot of problems with the release but the aircraft is mush better now. Still with the few problems there are still there, and if the developer doesn't update it anymore, I would continue flying as is. However, I have heard the developer is still planning more updates and I can't wait to see what improvements he does.
Maybe after a couple more updates, I would give it a 4 stars, and if the gauges were 3D then I would say it is a 5 star aircraft. For me, the price was right for this aircraft, but to everyone, price is subjective.
Hope this review helps anyone looking into this aircraft!

I purchased this aircraft with prior knowledge of the Developer's previous offerings in other flight sim platforms. I have not been disappointed; this small development team has been responsive and transparent in their first entrance to the new, dynamic MSFS SDK. Historically, LHS has continuously provided unique selections of aircraft with accurate flight models, varied configurations, interior selections and an incredible quantity of tasteful and periodic liveries.
Look, everyone's discretionary spending and expectations are different. That's absolutely, ok. If you're primarily graphics focused, than yes, you should take this into consideration with your purchase decision. If you feel like I do, supporting and encouraging Developers in the new MSFS to generate new and unique aircraft benefits the entire community, then selection of this aircraft is a no-brainer. This is an absolutely beautiful flying machine and I have no reservations they will continue to update and continue improvements with the graphics and performance.
Personally, I look forward to LHC taking their maturing experience to deliver us remarkable versions of their Kodiak and Fairchild 24 series. But I'm a GA and big radial kind of guy, so there's that:)
Cheers to you all, fly safe and happy.

Hey Folks..I waited a bit until I got this beautiful plane.In the beginning there were many who complained about mistakes .It is a great plane, beautifully modeled and worked out with a lot of effort. Of course right no it´s not perfect..
The flight model is really good, the plane flies very nice - one should not to be forget, besides the big known manufacturers it is the first mature complex aircraft.And the manufacturer takes really much effort to take its users seriously and to continuously develop the machine. thumbs up ... it would be desirable to optimize the FPS and the functionality of the Avionic Master--but i think, for the price it is a nice GA Plane whichs grows much more to the future :)

Overall, this is a great aircraft and MOSTLY worth the price. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the 3D modeling or texture work - unless you zoom WAY in externally.
My only gripe with the aircraft (and it's a game-breaking one right now) is the poor performance in-cockpit. I think there's some weirdness going on with the way the gauges are being rendered, or with the internal 3D model having too many unneeded polys. I'm not sure what the issue is but it's the only thing really keeping me from flying an otherwise great aircraft. If the developer is able to solve the performance issue, I will happily amend my review to five stars.

I don't have much to say, it flies well, sounds well, looks good, pretty much all issues I see with this plane are being worked on and updates are coming fast.
My biggest issue is the installer which is especially annoying to use.
It is to note that this plane is the first 3rd party plane with genuinly good camera difinitions I've bought, usually the work is made by clueless devs or isn't even done, even from talented devs.
Frankly the fact that this add-on plane has lower review scores than the Bredok Eurofighter really tells a lot about flight simmer's broken priorities.
It's also to note that a lot of the bad early reviews really seem to me to come from people who don't understand what it's like to learn to make planes for this new sim, documentation is horrible, mostly empty, a lot changed between this sim and older platforms and it's a lot about trial and error and devs helping each others out.
Also some absurd accusation like one guy sayiing there's no PBR where there obviously is. I'd usually give this product 4 stars until some of the issues are fixed but I'm giving it 5 to compensate for the many, imo, absurly harsh reviews this product gets.

Reviews stating this plane is a complete disaster are either outdated or exaggerated.
Let me just say for the record for the cost this is a perfectly fine value. Tons of liveries, a few different interiors and the dev has addressed all complaints with almost daily updates.
Flight model is great and that is the most important thing, to the developer I ask you to prioritize these items to bring this B plane to an A+.
- Better textures on internal cockpit - the current textures are good but there's room for improvement - please start with the gauges ;)
- The airframe body looks good, but I would like to see physical bolts instead of the texture maps. The flaps are the worst offender here in my opinion.
- Lighting, look up the Uwa lighting mod, maybe you can get this implemented?
That's it for me, the plane flies so well that I'm going to keep using it, but I would love to show it off in more screenshots so let's make it a litte bit more pretty ;

The modeling is superb and the flight model is better than any default aircraft in the sim. The sounds are very well done, which is a major plus.

This plane is bad all around. The model is a FSX port, with no PBR textures used on the plane inside or out. Developer has falsely blamed Asobo for some of it's problems with the plane (doors not opening/closing, lights remaining on all the time, can't cold/dark start it, despite their competition solving all these issues). The interior texture looks okay, but the modeling is not of this generation and does not hold up to Asobo's new standard. The exterior looks really bad with rivets being including in a low-res non-PBR texture instead of actually being physical rivets. Exterior lighting has issues, where the source of the light is dark, so you basically just have taxi and landing lights coming from nowhere. Buttons & switches in the cabin do not have any sounds. The lights around the GPS units that are always on present another problem as well, being that the always-on lights are too brights and blurry. There are no checklists in-game, and none included in the download either, nor are there manuals of any kind.
As if these issues weren't bad enough, even installing this plane hits a road block if you don't do a workaround. The installer asks if you have the Steam version or not. If you choose the Steam version, you will not be able to advance past the registration key. The solution here is to choose the non-Steam version regardless of which version you have installed. Everything about this release is sloppy.

This product is definitely Beta.
Tried it today - model looks nice enough.
Interior instrument lighting not working as advised when purchased.
VOR's don't work. No glideslope on VOR or HSI.
Overspeed in level flight even with the throttle pulled way back.
Needs finessing.

A plane in Beta on the limit of being acceptable. It has some potential but needs an immediate update! One can't start cold and dark, can't read the GPS lights which are over-bright and low res! Doors do not open yet nor some other functions. For now it is a poor men Mooney with nuanced fails in cabin interior polygon count and some unfinished textures. In the outside the plane is very well done. Again it can go as far as the developer wants to push it. In my opinion you better off waiting for the update and future reviews.

REQUIREMENTS
A High End computer that can run MSFS smoothly is most recommended because this package consists of a high amount of 4K resolution textures. A Strong graphics card with at least 2Gb VRAM, but preferably 4Gb of VRAM and at least 6Gbs of RAM are required. You 'will' need to 'lower' settings in the MSFS to run this plane in low end computers.
You will need to know where your 'Community' folder is in MSFS on your computer. You will need to direct the installer to your that folder when installing this package.
