New version 1.36. with fixes for MSFS patch WU6. New particle effects on water and land added, but with minor issue. Problem is in game and Im trying to resolve it over official ticket. Problem description: when changing ext/int (or vice versa) view ONLY during particle effects duration, than effect wont stop even after airborne. To fix the problem, you must change int/ext view again (or vice versa). It is minor bug occuring only under specific conditions and Im working on solution, but its fair to mention that. IF YOU DONT ACCEPT THAT, PLEASE DONT BUY MY PRODUCT. Actual status can be found at my thread named "V.G.P. Powerstol new thread" on official Flightsimulator forums
PowerSTOL is small fictional ultralight capable of STOL flying. My friends real pilots participated in flight model tuning and therefore I can say it should be very close to reality. Hope you will enjoy it as I do.

Requis
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 switched to "Modern" flight model. 852MB of free disc space.
It is great plane for slow flowing through the nature and cities. I fly with this plane if I want expolore new parties of my country or my city, if I want to try some difficult landing on unusually place or I want to enjoy a lot fun and relax. What is next big advantage? Cool plane for VR. Cockipt is very clear for VR and from airplane you have a great view around you and under of airplane. If you want to relax, explore and have a lot fun, I really recommend you buy this model, price is cheap (one dinner in restaurant, and restaurant are closed :-)). PS: If you have any problem with this aircraft, you can contact V.G.P. He do great support for this model and he did a lot of improvments after our feedback.
It flies low and slow very well and this is the best way to appreciate the beautiful MSFS world. The flight model feels realistic and it is great fun to fly.
Unfortunately, in its present state, almost three months since release, it is poor value for money when compared to other payware aircraft such as the Flying Iron Spitfire. For an extra £5, the Spitfire looks and feels entirely real with lifelike 4K textures and gauges. I know there is now a pack of extra textures for the Powersolo, but the instruments and switches and so basic they give the impression the cockpit is made of Lego Duplo. Come on VGP please sort this out. Most of the cockpit is fresh air, there's hardly acres of panelling or banks of knobs switches and gauges.
Ive Watched Three Good Reviews On This Plane , I Brought It , I Installed It And Flew From Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport To Williams Town Military Airport Just Over An Hour And A Half, Up The Australian NSW Coast Line Over Places I Knew Plus Friends Houses, Phoned Them And Told Them To Look Up At Me Waving Madly, I Thought It Might Be A Slug To Fly But To My Surprise It Wasn't. I Had Sooo Much Fun! This Plane Has A Really Short Take Off And Landing [its In The Write Up]- Watch The First Time You Pop The Flaps, A Thing Of Beauty . Magic , All Smiles.
Delightful little plane. Easy to fly slow and land anywhere you like. Ideal for sightseeing. Perfect visibility. You can look directly down.
The only thing I don't like are the textures. So -1 star for that:
The whole plane looks a bit like it comes fresh out of a 3D developer's program (which it does of course). Not only is there to wear or scratches. But the textures look too perfect and don't come across as real as if the whole plane had perfectly even surfaces and 100% perfect paint. The engine looks a bit like a toy.
THE best way to enjoy the VFR beauty of Microsoft Flight Simulator.
You will have the best views and enjoy a relaxed flying time.
For everyone looking for the perfect VFR experience, look no further.
Especially in VR this plane is a MUST.
And - another big plus for me - the author is dedicated to enhance the plane step by step. The best money i have spent on an add-on plane for a long time.
