The glider update is now available in the Steam Beta!
Great to see the winching functionality we lost after AFS1 finally found its way again in AFS4.
That was something I really missed!
Your towing ‘proof of concept’ was also teased a very long time ago if I remember well… good to see that released as well.

Available for you to enjoy on flight-sim.org
Thanks to Higgy for setting me up with my account over there...

I second the request of humdinger.
Using track IR or VR headsets it's not an issue obviously but panning with the hat switch of a joystick feels a bit too slow, especially from inside the cockpit.
A slider to modify pan speed would be great indeed.

Hi guys,
For quite some time I was interested in converting my C172 repaints I made for the A2A Cessna and I finally got around remaking the first one! 
It took some time getting adjusted to a new workflow for Aerofly FS. Some small omissions in the official paintkit also slowed me down a bit but here it is...
Well known by all of you who have flown the default FSX Cessna in the past 
1998 Factory Paint Scheme
Need to take her for an extended testflight to check for any omission and then I'll see what I have to do to pack it up and distribute it to you all.

Sylvain
Hi guys,
Some visual inaccuracies of the 3D model really stand out (since FS1) and it would be nice to see them fixed in the future, especially considering how much work Jet-pack has now put into improving the functionality of the avionics.
The 2 main area of concern are the following:
- Canopy bow too large
- Main gear: Tires should be wider and slightly larger.
Track width too narrow
Please check images below for comparison.
Edit: images attached to the forum post lose their animation. Check links below for animated comparison.

Hi guys,
did a flight today to Telluride Airport (KTEX).
I discovered there was no frequency available for the LOC09 in Aerofly FS.
Should be 109.30Mhz according to skyvector.

Dear IPACS team,
2 years down the road and this issue is unfortunately still present in latest build...
All rotary switches always turn clockwise when using 2 finger scroll movement on touchpad (regardless of moving fingers upwards or downwards).
A fix for us touchpad users would be very much appreciated!
Regards,
Sylvain
Hi Jan,
Could you also look at the main gear when improving the Hornet?
When comparing with RL pictures:
- main gear track seems too narrow
- main gear tires visually seem to be on the small size.
Regards,
Sylvain
The adoption rate will also very much depend on the price setting I guess...
Can’t expect customers to pay the same price as for the other sim platforms in case it would not feature the same level of fidelity or system depth.
Hi guys,
The visor on the helmet of the WSO/backseater in that very nice F-15E is turned upside down.
Should be an easy fix I guess!

Sylvain
Hello,
I noticed when using the touchpad on my laptop that I am unable to move or rotate switches in both directions as it keeps going in a single direction regardless of scroll action on touchpad.
(radio freq, transponder code, VOR radial, etc)
Scrolling up or down with two fingers on the touchpad does not change the direction of rotation requiring to move through the whole range when overshooting a desired setting or value.

Sylvain
*BUMP*
Issue still exists today.
Easy to reproduce with the C172 radio stack.
A fix would be very much appreciated.

Sylvain
Thanks Sydel
Will try that...
Hi guys,
I found the volume of the sounds in AFS1 to be more realistic than the very low volume sounds I am getting in AFS2. For the internal view I could think it is simulating an active noise reduction headset but the volume is also very low in external view.
I have to turn my speakers to max volume to get some immersion...
Do you experience the same or is it something on my end?
Why this difference compared to the volume in FS1 or RC7?
Is there a setting I missed somewhere??
Regards,
Sylvain
That is great news! Looking forward to this...
Will you publish Speck for AeroflyFS1 as well??
Regards,
Sylvain
Fair enough!
Thanks for the detailed explanation
If I were you I would consider mentioning some of these details on the Steam store page as like you said - we don't necessarily see the amount of work that goes into such a conversion.
By the way- Can we hope to see the Discus and the Robin carried over to FS2 in the future??
The Robin was my favourite touring aircraft in FS1!
Cheers,
Sylvain
Hello Ipacs,
Nice to see you released the excellent Switzerland DLC for FS2!
I must admit that I was a bit disappointed to see that owners of FS1, although being early supporters of your platform, also have to repay for this scenery that is almost identical to the original release?
Or is there something I'm missing/overseeing??
Thanks,
Sylvain
Native support for Collada files (.dae) would be great too...
That's the format used by the excellent & freeware(!) Blender software amongst others.
Blender can also export to 3ds but I don't know if the export is guaranteed to work flawlessly.

Do I need to backup the setup files folder for future install or is it sufficient to backup the download manager only??
Does anyone know the answer?
Any of the IPACS developers reading this?
Thanks!
Regards,
Sylvain
Hello guys,
While cleaning up my hard drive I stumbled across the aerofly RC setup files.
I have:
- a Download manager: aeroflyRC7-pro-DownloadManager.exe
- the setup files folder: aeroflyRC7pro_Installer (containing 4 files for approx 5,79Gb)
Do I need to backup the setup files folder for future install or is it sufficient to backup the download manager only??
Thanks in advance!

Sylvain
Hi guys,
Joachim knows exactly what I'm referring too.
The behavior of the quads like the DJI phantom in normal mode is not completely the same but it's coming close.
The mechanical flybar also partially counters the inputs you are making.
Any plans from IPACS to add the Blade 200SRX helicopter with SAFE technology when it's released next month?
Regards,
Sylvain
