Nice plane
A touch heavy on the prims and a little 'jumpy' in response to key controls, but it's well made and i have enjoyed flying her.
Took a chance
I wasn't sure if this plane would be any good or not. I liked it because I was a fan or the RW version before it was destroyed.
Anyway lets get to it. The plane model looks great but the MFDs are static so if you want avionic displays you're not going to find them here. I didn't let that bother me. The flight model is good but aileron controls are a bit touchy for my taste but I got used to them quickly. Where this plane shines is the STOL characteristics. If you have full flaps you can land on a dime. A nice slow controlled descent and a tailwheel plant is simple and it only took a few minutes to get the hang of it. https://gyazo.com/cdb7cc05c9ff9c8cf2b56dd45bc052e3 . I actually landed in that spot with no roll. Without flaps it's a bit funny flying. you will begin to drop like a rock at 35% throttle but can climb at 40%. Just use the flaps for landing. There's two settings so you don't always have to do a short landing.
I was really pleased with this plane and I hope to see more in the SL skies soon. There's no demo in the inworld store I could find so if anyone is interested just come Visit SLIA and I'll give you a demo of my plane.
TL:DR
Pros:
Great 3D model
Excellent slow flight and STOL capabilities
Lots of extras in the package
Cons:
Touchy aileron controls
static cockpit displays.
If I'm wrong about something here I'll update this review as I discover them.
