Relax, it was sunday
Ha ha ha, I feel for you. I have the same problem with my business.
Relax, it was sunday
Ha ha ha, I feel for you. I have the same problem with my business.
From this morning from JV at ORBX:
"""""We have a new AFS2 airport imminent, preview shots ASAP. And you'll be surprised at the price too! """""
if you want to be on the plane, you have to fly real planes and not RC planes.
Piloting an Rc plane is done on sight
Wrong I fly half of my RC stuff including my drones in FPV (FIrst Person View) mode
Ok it's Aerosoft ????
Thanks, I'm sold anyway.
If you need a BETA tester for the R22 I'm IN.
10 hours on a real one, mostly fly heli in other sim platform. 30 years of RC heli flying

Who are you?
Very cool and nice....
I have spent 1000'''''' $ on ORBX, Aerosoft, Flytampa and a few others. Just to name the scenery maker, not counting how many planes I bought.
AF2 (full) with the 4 ORBX available scenery is what? Not even 250$ for me. So for a newby it may sound expensive but for the other crazy simmer it's nothing.
So yes with P3D V4 I was able to re-instal most of my paid/addon stuff.... but I hate it!!!! No I won't buy a 800$ 1080 TI, no I won't change my 2600K CPU OC @ 4.4 to gain what, 5 FPS? V4 is hard on everything for me... And NO I'm not what you would call a study type simmer.. that I do in real life.
I still fly a 172 once a month to keep my licence up to date for renting plane and trust me I choose the best possible day for a nice VFR experience.
Flying blind (IFR) is boring for me... ATC, I hate to deal with them
The only thing that fascinate me and the only thing I need is some very nice scenery with simming.
So I'm happy with what I have now from AF2... well mayby a helicopter

Finally YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS....
I have been an RC heli pilot all my life, still fly them electric now.
For those that have problem flying them forget the pedal for now and use the joystick twist motion (if you can) for the yaw.
A bit like a RC radio where your hand control everything.
I have 12 hours on a Sikorsky S-300 and the transition from fix wing at that time was hell. You need to forget 80% of your fix wing flying.
If the team don't mind as they are working with ORBX, here an heli only video I just did on their new Gold Coast
Ben
ORBX PNW is coming... be patient, it will change how we see FS2.
They just got Gold Coast out with a new technology and it's out of this world. I hope that some of that apply to PNW.
Ben
Suggesting politely is one thing, asking or complaining is another unacceptable thing.
Ben
I think that AF2 is perfect for what it is.
Plane: What a nice variety with graphic better then most payware, I have V4 with a lot of addon and, well i'm always flabbergasted when I go back to AF2 .
I really love the handling of most (don't care about auto pilot??? What is the fun in that?)
Weather: Fine with me, I would only add another layer of some kind. Maybe different stratus. If you want to fly in the cloud (IFR), you don't need AF2 visual experience.
ATC: Don't care
Traffic : Don't really care, maybe light GA traffic could be fun.
Moving water: I'm biased on this one.
Helicopter: I WANT ONE
Ajustement of camera speed of outside view would be a nice feature for filming.
Cheers
Ben
I don't care about ATC at all.
Ben
Enjoy my friend this little one
Ben
I'm going on strike!! Gonna be sitting in the middle of KEGE runway with 747 until we have a chopper in AFS2
I started laughing like crazy.... Open the door, I'm climbing IN with you
Ben
I will definitely buy it at release day
As I know ORBX a lot, when Lain say: My last shot.. expect this one to be available at any moment
