Beautiful work. Lively Performance and beauty. It's a pleasure to fly over, take off, and land in SBRJ. Next up should be SBGL :)

works perfect but in msfs 2024, the flags appear as American, can you pls update for 2024?

Love this airport so much but i only have MSFS 2024 and it over laps with the default Asobo SBPC... can you pls update it for MSFS ??

For a first time developer this is amazing. For any developer it’s amazing. It sounded like an ambitious project for months and I was skeptical, but DA pulled it off. Finally a helicopter that feels realistic (that isn’t made by TAOG) and looks absolutely stunning!  I mean seriously good looking inside and out and all around. The sounds are detailed and excellent. No mute switches or the likes. Great lighting rounds out a mostly stellar product. While it’s a real achievement in development it’s also needs a few things to put it at the top of the top. Relatively minor things but still important I think. First damage modeling is a common “study level” feature, but it’s missing here making flying this great helicopter totally without consequence and that contradicts the “study level” expectations. Also only the pilots door opens and seemingly only half way. At least make the passenger door in the back able to be opened and closed.  An in-sim checklist is a must.  Something nice would be an option to add a GPS device if wanted.  Then there are the fun bits and bobs like a Bambi bucket, spray kit etc that while unnecessary would certainly be very nice. As is the Hoplite seems to have arrived meeting most expectations bringing us a true classic that shows some love for it. 

Very nicely detailed. A lot of work went into the systems, it feels alive! One thing I could not say about 80% of MSFS aircraft and helicopters. Flies believable, really fun to hover. Bought it the moment I saw its out and I didn't get disappointed. VERY detailed, great artwork, great sounds, a lot of work went into it all. Especially regarding this being their first release... wow! Well worth the money - and the simulation as well as the helicopter simulated are interesting and quirky enough to go back to it again and again. Would love to see some engine damage getting modeled in the future, maybe an agricultural sprayer variant... but I am very happy for now and quite some while.

Animations Nosewheel is going right when left and oposite, flaps lever the same! Apu Gen is not connecting. And many other fails, this product is not finished so far!

Unbelievable details in cockpit, perfect internal sounds, lights, texturing and forgiving flight dynamics...I must have for all helicopter fans, who wants to get familiar with the Eastern types!

Disregard my first review. The scenery is great :)

Not bad! Compared to the phenom 300e, where there is no flaps and other features are missing. Need further improvements on the avionics. Autothrottle working but not able to see the selected speed on top of the speed tape on the PFD and not able see the aircraft symbol on the MFD. Did some IFR approaches and it is a stable aircraft.

What a charming little airfield, superbly recreated by FSS. Detailed modelling, everything is crisp, no boring default assets, there are signs, posts, banners, fences, it is a really lovely scenery.  There are a few small oversights though; There's only a single parking spot available, so if you'd like to start a multiplayer flight there, then you're out of luck There's space for at least 3 spots on the tarmac, maybe one in the hangar, it just makes sense. Also, there is an obvious LOD error, one of the large buildings pops into view when on final, while the others are fine. And finally, that windsock, while custom (which is fantastic of course!), is clearly modelled too big. It would hit one of the neighbouring poles, so it wouldn't work if it were like that in reality. Other than that, this is REALLY well done, so if you're into VFR flying in small aircraft, go get it, highly recommended.
