Truly a waste of money and a major ripoff
Revised previous review from 2016
My previous review was many years ago and at the time I gave five stars. However, SL has changed a lot since back than and this performs so bad now it is painful to even fly anymore. If you stay on one sim you might not be too bad off, but with repeated sim crossings as with a typical flight numerous problems are typical. Combine all this with no updates in many years, many complaints of unanswered support requests, and the maker has left SL makes this nothing short of a ripoff and a huge waste of money. I would suggest great caution if considering buying anything from this maker at this point keeping in mind outdated scripts and no support which is seen in other reviews. This was wonderful once upon a time, but that boat sank years ago.
For what it is worth I would suggest trying to reach out to any developer that has old military/war products for sale to make sure they are still in SL and their is support before paying out L$ only to discover the product has issues and no one answers support requests.
Detailed bu told now
Update 2023: I loved this plane at the time it was presented. Back in 2015 that is. Times have changed a lot in SL since then and there are much better planes out there now. The update is old and not much difference and with high mesh traffic today it's not as dynamic. I think the maker left SL a bit ago. No responses to IM's or NC. And the parcel store is gone.
Old version they never updated and no customer support
This product needs work and there are bugs, missing at lest one major update sent out that I know of since I bought this which I never received. When I bought this in 2018 I got version 2.1 which is still the version being sold here in SL market and there was a version 3.1 sent out I been told and seen. Not only did the developer or store owners never update the version being sold in here, but their redeliver in-world does not even have this listed, and none of the apparent contact people answer email. It has been 24 days since I have IM'ed and sent a note card to two of the owners the first time, eight days since I tried both of them a second time, and eight days since I tried the third and only other owner and apparent contact for such things.... None of my requests for support have been answered and I have given all of them more than enough time to replay to me. I did not pay all this L$ (L$ 2,799) to be ignored and would caution anyone considering purchasing anything from these people you might not get any support either.
Because...
1. they did not keep this current online in SL market over the last three+ years missing at lest one major update
2. they did not ensure their in-world redeliver work providing updates for this with current versions
3. they do not reply to customers inside a reasonable time if at all given it is just under a month since my first attempted contact and I made several attempts across three people.
..... I give them 1 star.
awful truly awful
ok i took a chance i was wary as i know TBM but i did and here what you get
1 doesnt fly level constantly noses down (TBM trait)
2 pitch and roll far to sensitive in low fps areas one key press will roll or pitch the plane by a lot of degrees. Pitch is a big problem as it wants to nose down so you plane end up like a nodding dog up and down.. trying to line up for a runway is impossible
3 landing mode should be renamed plummet mode select landing mode throttle and you drop out the sky
4 turn to great even on the ground cant even line up for take off as each press turns it to much
5 hud doesnt have any speed or vertical speed indication (the two you really need) just direction can be got from mini map and altitude which is wrong anyway
6 i stopped and throttled to idle and the plane shut down by itself so if you get stuck in a queue of other planes forget it
probbably the worse plane i own
Perfect F-16 Fighter in SL.
Nice Fighter by =TBM= that I've waited for Since 2013. Specials Thanks to Momoe OkamiYokai. :)
Great jet
Great plane find myself always playing with this one when i wana just have some fun trying to push its limits, If Sl would ever fix there sim crossings life would be so grand but this plane is the best ive found yet, Lets get another fighter soon how about a 2 seater?
