PARTENAVIA P68B VICTOR MSFS

I was really hoping that someone would make this plane, so I hope that some defects already reported in the other comments will be corrected and I also bought it to support its development.

Hi guys! I bought this airplane because I really like the P68, I saw it in much case, very nice and it's italian. I love our italian airplane. But this version proposed from Nemeth Design is very very bad. The texture and 3d model is quite nice but on the cockpit the texture of the gauges need to be correct because there is like milky glass. The flight dynamics are totaly absent and unreal. At the parking stand, with engine on and throttle set to minimum if you remove parking brake the aircraft will start rolling fast (20-25kts!) without any throttle movement, sorry guys but I never seen any piston engine aircraft do that (correct me if I wrong please). The airspeed of this aircraft is weird, you can't land with an airspeed below 100kts, at about 80kts the aircraft will stall in fulldown configuration flaps! Absolutely weird. Pitch and roll are very slow in movements, on the ground the plane behaves like it were in the water, for turns on the ground you have to full pull the rudder and helping with brakes but it's very absurd and the nosewheel not have animation. The engine dynamics does no exists, the propeller levers is animate, on the exterior model the blades will move but not have any influence on the aircraft. The sound are acceptable but have some bugs and needs to be corrected. The weight and balance is totaly wrong! Finally the model haven't the possibility to open the doors and there isn't any tablet for some configuration. 1 star is mandatory! For 20 bucks (22 Euros) this addon are totaly overpriced for what it offers. Of course I'm not saying it should have the quality like A2A, Milviz(Blackbir-
d Sim), Flysimware etc...but I say a product like this can't be marketed at this state! Ok, you want sell this product? Ok, perfect! I want a flyable product and not this. This addon needs to be revised and correct asap, it's not enjoyable and unflyable at this state. If ND will fixit all of this problem probably I make another review and I will advise you to buy this product but for now, please don't waste your money.

This airplane looks good inside and out. However, there are things that make it unenjoyable to fly. The props have no effect on performance, and their animation is backwards. The airplane turns on the ground slightly with rudder but has no animation with the nosewheel. The engine idle is set too high. When releasing the parking brake, the airplane will accelerate to the point of taking off by itself. As mentioned by another user, the WT/BAL is far out of limits. Hopi-
ng for a fixit update soon. It would be fun to fly when things are repaired.

I really want to like this plane. It looks great and there are a ton of nice liveries for it. However, it seems to be far from a finished product. Here are some of the issues I noticed just in my first 15 minutes with the plane. The CG is totally off. With just a pilot and copilot the CG slider needs to be forward and out of limits or the tail drops down and it becomes a tail dragger. The controls are very “mushy” and the plane is slow to react to rudder and aileron input. It almost feels like it is on water. Groun-
d handling…well, forget it! The nose wheel does not animate with the rudder input and it does not turn the plane. I could only maneuver with incremental throttle input. The prop condition levers animate in the cockpit and move with the Bravo levers and the prop blades move correctly, but they have no effect when in flight. I can live with the sounds, but they aren’t the best. Spinni-
ng prop animation is not very good in my opinion. The-
re is no in cockpit tablet and the doors do not open. If most of these issues can be addressed in an update my review will go to 5 stars and I would fly this plane a lot. As I said, I want to like it, but I can't in it's present state. Here's hoping for an update!
