The rudder and elevators flap wildly on taxi and nose gear steering is not that great (P3D V4.5) I sent them email about this and no response (just crickets).
DO NOT BUY!
Less than 30 min into it and all ready want a refund.
Virtual cockpit visual quality is from like fs9 era.
click on any circuit breaker and other switches move.
left click does nothing on some switches but on other does something.
3 position switches move like they are 2 position switches.
Same cockpit sound ALL the time regardless of power input or stage of flight.
Extremely not satisfied with this product. Should be a Freeware in my opinion.
Great product! Highly recommended!! Fairly priced for the amount of models included. Free liveries on website & easy-to-use convenient installer. This troubled me a bit, but if you're unable to move the flaps or spoilers lever, make sure you turn on HYDRAULICS on the first officers side, down by the center console. Good customer support. Happy Simming ^^
Tested and works in Prepar3D V3.4.22.19868
Really enjoying this aircraft. Nice detail, flies great by hand, and has good but basic Autopilot. Worth the price and is the only DC-9 for Prepar3d V.3
works perfect flys perfect i like it more then my cls MD80 so far the Over head panel and some of the other Tags on the panel could be better less blurry would be nice though i have not had any probs starting it up or flying the Cabin Press is a Bit of a pain Though this is worth geting if you like this Type of aircraft it does not have a FMC it uses the stock GPS the autopilot system is old style so most of the heading controls is done with the heading bug switch
So far, I am unable to get this product to work correctly in Prepar3d. After a reinstall, I am still unable to get power to the APU for starting. (FYI I am an experienced simmer with 20 years of MS flightsim under my belt) I have used the default startup flight to make sure everything in P3D is "default" yet still no power. What's more, there is no support forum on the SkySimulations website to get help. As far as I can tell there is only an email address for contacting the developer. As of right now, I wish I could refund my 30.00.
Ich kannte noch die alte Version für FSX, händisches Fliegen war damit eigentlich recht spaßig, und auch ILS Anflüge waren damit problemlos möglich.
Die Optik wurde für diese v2 nun schon aufgehübscht, und hässlich ist die Umsetzung für P3D sicher nicht, wenn auch viele Texturen, gerade im VC, recht verwaschen und wenig überzeugend wirken.
Das größte Manko ist aber sicherlich der Autopilot, der Vertical Speed Mode ist eigentlich nicht zu gebrauchen, und auch ILS Anflüge (das Einfangen und Abfliegen des Glideslopes) sind mir nicht gelungen. Das Ausfahren der Flaps führt außerdem zu einem unglaubwürdigen Ballooning Effekt.
Wenig überzeugend. Wäre es bei simmarket möglich, ich würde um einen Refund bitten!
Good exterior model, sounds both internal and external and acceptable VC model. Regretfully, I could not get that PreLivery Tool to work, to install extra liveries, which is something that seems not to be yet compatible with P3D. For a relatively expensive product, priced at 30 Euro, I would have expected complete compatibility with P3D. Apart from that there is no forum to go for help, and directly asking the developer for support is a matter of days if you're lucky enough, because it seems they have full time jobs in the outside world.
