Hard to say, when was the last time I saw so many bugs in such a small plane. There’s exactly as much features, as there are issues with this addon: the lights way too dim, the range way too short, the speed twice slower than stated in the description, some of the buttons like strobe lights don’t work for me at all. The control panel looks really lo-fi, the flickering shadows are all over the place… Some tooltips missing their text, the fuel system requires review as well... I wouldn’t call this a finished product, and the price is way too high for given quality. Feeling a bit disappointed with the purchase.
I have to agree with one of the other reviewers as well that's it just OK. It certainly is pretty, but it's really slow. It's not nimble as far as handling and a big part of the realism for a plane for me is the sound, and this little baby sounds like it's got the default Cessna 172 sounds. That is a definite killer for me! I did give it 3 stars because it's a pretty model.
It's just ok. The real RV 8 is known for it's speed and rate of climb. This one has a cruise speed of only 105 knots and the climb way is too sluggish.
