Carenado PA31 Navajo

Doesn't look like there has been a mention of Careando's latest twin piston release yet. Came out just a few days ago and ticks all the boxes you'd expect from them:



If anyone is up for repainting a local NZ operator variant of the Navajo, please let me know and I can flick you the logos for my company plane in high res.
Cheers

Andy I'm still not a Carenado owner yet .. Crikey I could get Knee Capped for saying that !

Yeah I've been surprised about the ho-hum response to this machine, love the old Navajo. Many hours logged in the FSD model myself.
I'll be buying this with next months "allowance", might take you up on that offer of repaint-source-material, we got a few examples here and historical liveries to think of too

So how is it Andrew? Will you be doing a AirDailyX review?

[ardypilot]

Don't have the time to do a full write up but it seems to take about the same takeoff and landing roll in the sim as it does in real life when loaded.

Only issues I noticed are the rudder pedals and yoke arnt interconnected in the sim model, although I expect that's just a FSX limitation. And also the Carenaro G530 GPS approach legs all appear in degrees true rather than degrees magnetic without the detailed menu pages to change them.

Interestingly enough, ADX are sitting on a review I did of the Flight1 G650/750 panel that I wrote a few months ago. I'll email D'Andre and see if he's forgotten about it!

Just get in touch if and when you'd like the logos Deeknow!
