i really wanted something old school i could do some firefighting with in neofly so i decided well i can put up with bad sounds and non too realistic systems so i bought it, big mistake i would have been better with nothing than with this. the manual is a joke, its brief, half of its in french and the english parts been translated with google by the looks of it. the big deal tho is that unless you start on the runway the nosewheel wont turn and its impossible to taxi. i dont have massively high expectations of all planes but a broken one like this should pulled from the market
In 2023 this CL215 is better than its reputation. It has been revised many times. There are almost only outdated videos and tests to be found online. The system depht is very simple. Well, originally it's a STRG+E Flyer. But for example the sounds are much better than in the old videos and with the Duckworks package, it becomes a jewel. And yes it is expensive, but without this payware Mod even Duckworks won't fly. I enjoy the plane.
Seit 2023 ist diese CL215 besser als ihr Ruf. Sie wurde vielfach überarbeitet. Im Netz sind fast nur veraltete Videos und Tests zu finden. Sie ist vom System her sehr einfach gestrickt. Aber die Sounds z.B. sind deutlich besser als in den alten Videos. Mit dem Duckworks Package wird sie zum Juwel. Klar ist die Original-Maschine relativ teuer aber ohne dieser Basis fliegt leider auch Duckworks nicht. Mir macht der Flieger Spaß.
Leider richtig schlecht. Größenverhältnis im Cockpit zu groß und der Ton ist echt schlecht. Simulation ist auch nicht bescheiden da viele Knöpfe ohne Funktion sind. Würde ich auf keinen fall nochmal kaufen!!!
Un peu déçu...Les fonctions pilote auto pas efficace et régulièrement des bug avec la souris et la manette des gaz. Plusieurs gamers avec le même souci...en attente d'un PATCH?
Hello people,
This version of CL 215 must be on alpha state due do the work it needs to be done. The price is very high, the plane cannot be done yet?!
I bought these Addon for P3D4 and i can say it was amazing!
The plane was a pleasure to fly!
But this CL 215 for MSFS is not flyable...
- RPM issues as lot of people reported
- Magnettos and mixture with scrool are not very "user friendly" (HOLD LMB should be bette)
- Plane stalls at full throttle and mixture (even at 2000feet) without any VS
- RPM dicreasing during flight for no reason
- Joystick Throttle stopped working for this addon after last MSFS update
I hope that Roland Laborie will work on this because the work he did on other addons was really good!
Waiting for update soon :)
Bon courage !
