I fly the real 109SP and I must say from the previews I’ve seen so far this is very accurately modelled. Even sounds pretty much the same, but then I use ANR headsets so does dampen out much of the noise. BTW you can also tell if your U/C is down by not only the gear lights but also on the PFD in the centre you will see 3 in-line dots. Yes you correct…..always fly with AP1 and 2 engaged……in real life it’s more unstable then what I saw in your demo.

"ooh what was that sound? +1 up?" I thought the exact same thing when I heard that ding hahah

[@durin73]

Thanks for review....!Have a good manual?thx in advance!

[@bobfs8891]

I think you did a good job of handling this aircraft both in auto pilot and off although for someone who is not use to flying this aircraft the autopilot feature would be a benefit. There appears to be a lot model in this aircraft that would make learning challenging and interesting. Just my take.

[@thenerdyhelisimmer4608]

Thanks 🙂

Strange enough there are some rotor sim pilots like me who prefer to fly without the SAS autopilot mode. On my extended joystick, the controls felt spot one in terms of sensitivity. I had the x-rotor A109 model for Xplane 11, enjoyed it alot. But abandoned the addon when I upgraded to Xplane 12, and this model seems to look alot better than x-rotor's A109 in some ways. Yet it's my opinion, and I have not even flown the B412 from x-trident either. But will pickup this model at a later stage :) Thanks for the brief review.

[@thenerdyhelisimmer4608]

Agree. I don't like the feel of SAS either. But flying without in in this bird and the EC35 is simply pain. Also when doing long haul flights, say above 1 hr, I prefer an afcs. Thx for your input...

[@Fynnley525]

hopefully someone makes a N293G livery from the Jurassic Park scene that you mentioned, i bet it would look great on this one

[@thenerdyhelisimmer4608]

Very few liveries with the initial download. But there is a Thread on the org.forum. Maybe someone already made this...

[@insanebase8883]

I was hoping you'd cover this. Have no time fly at the moment, will get this one definitely.

Please note the point of view in the real one is maybe 10 cm higher but the panel would be half out of sight - the VR POV is on spot

@@thenerdyhelisimmer4608 thanks bud... I have to say I agree with your comment about the wind effect on helicopters in XP12, it just gets monotonous after a short while..

[@agoodfriend45]

The sounds does not impress me at all Even FSX A109 sounded a lot better than this this kills immersion

[@nick-dm3if]

its funny, you, "a non 109 pilot" says it doesnt sound good while the guys who really fly it say it sounds almost exactly the same.
