    Hi Cameron. if I had of been more clever I would have bought it from you guys....instead I bought it from somewhere else.......you know where I mean, DAMMIT!!!!!!

    Ah well, still have to get the DC3 and the JS32...... :)

     

    It is a wonderful aircraft, even the reverse flaps setting for cruising at high speed, and it works!!!!!

     

    Slainte,

    Something is missing in the back seat by what the readme says. Should be a female passenger that I can`t find.

    Hi, Jim,

    As the Quick Operating Handbook file states:

    "To carry the little girl simply increase the payload weight over 265 lb. from the Aircraft/Weight and Fuel menu."

    LOL, guess I need to read up on it a bit more before showing it off. Guess I will have make special video how to get the girl in the back seat.

    What a sexy little (and fast for 100hp) aircraft!

     

    I have a new love...

    A lot of things are not working about this awesome plane... No command to active the other pages on the display, Can't set the climb rate, can't move the heading bug, can't set altitude stay always at 3000ft, etc...

    There's no plugin for this aircraft, so if there's something not working for you I'd say it's on your system. I can't duplicate the same issues as you, and we've received no reports of such.

    Love the view from this plane!

     

    Where is the "basic" autopilot referenced in the x-aviation catalog page?  When I flip to the proper page of the EFIS, it says it is still in development...

    Autopilot?  Schmautopilot...

     

    Frankly, I would love to see the variant of this aircraft with the available analog avionics package.  IMHO, a small sport plane like this begs to be flown old-school.

     

    (See page 20 of the actual Blackshape Prime brochure)

    I was able to fix the autopilot issue- Dmax recommended erasing my prefs files and reloading x plane. Tried it and I am now able to turn on the ap and operate it via airtrack on the ipad
