What's the point? I don't understand the title. I guess I missed the point.
Its a bait title
Yea unsubbed.
Author have most probably no experience with Accu sim aicratfs, so surprised what is modeled and it is living airplane as it was many years ago in FSX/P3D and what AccuSim aicrafts do.
Your passion about this plane shows, who else would put out a video with such a rotten cold? I liked A2A planes in FSX and bought this Comanche 250 on release, I am not disappointed and no buyers remorse here, unlike with some other planes. This, in my opinion makes MSFS2020 more like the simulator I was hoping for on release and I feel you're right that there will be patches for the damage etc. I am also looking forward to seeing what the livery artists can do with it. Thanks for the video.
Many thanks. On the discord there is a growing number of liveries already :-)
It's why I was waiting for 3 years for A2A to release this plane. Put simply, it's the feeling of ownership vs. "let's fly whatever, it has 0 consequences if I fly it poorly."
I guess that group of simmers who want to feel like they own their plane is a minority, I dunno.
And as a student pilot, I like having to keep good habits sharp, the walkarounds are super important, checking fuel, super important, checking oil quantity and quality, uber important. Run-ups, NEVER SKIP, it really helps make me feel like I'm keeping myself sharp, avoid bad habits for real while I save up to fly again.
100% with you.
Persistance is a big thing for me. I been flying the 172SP since that was my favorite GA in place of X-Plane REP mod. I love how this plane keeps everything, it warms up with the heater as your away from the game. I’m really hoping they do the same with the charger because I’m not really liking the “instant charge” I like things having to take time to get done. Also loving the fact that we don’t have to RESTART THE WHOLE FLIGHT to repair it. That’s a big one too.
Also hoping they fix the outside sound of the plane to more match the sound of the engine from the inside, they sound like two different planes and no starter sound outside as well as showing smoke like you tried to show. Hopefully comes in future updates as I noticed a lot of the files are “to do”. Also with the flaps I continuously break mine with over speed lol. Still figuring out how to get it slowed down right. And one more thing, Hypoxia hopefully soon gets implemented. I swear I passed out in the 737 before but it could have been the Zibo mod i don’t remember.
😆 hopefully all this will be introduced.
I had a weird nostalgic feeling and searched for A2A yesterday, saw a youtube about this, thought it was a work in progress, found out it was out, bought it sight unseen, now still waiting for msfs to reinstall. That's how much I love accusim. The passion and passion is the word, behind A2A is and was like no other in the industry. Enough to get me back into simming when nothing else could. I'm buzzing rn and can't wait to dive in.
Fly safe and have fun!
@@SimUKReviews Well... I have had this game since launch and uninstalled it after a few months to make room for other sims. Got A2A, still waiting on reinstall. Failed numerous times, for numerous reasons and I'm not alone it seems. Timing couldn't be worse. Whatever you do, once you have a successful installation of this don't ever mess with it because the installer is completely broken atm.
Sounds like MSFS has just gotten too big.
@@SimUKReviews Got it now and loving it.
Fantastic news, happy flying!
I deployed the flaps on the final approach to the runway once. I was flying around Spain just role-playing i just bought an used plane. Suddenly i noticed something wasn't working as intended. The behaviour of the plane with full flaps deployed was weird, like they didn't drop at all. Once landed, i switched to external view. To my surprise, one flap was fully deployed while the other one wasn't.
If you set your wear rate to x5 or x10 in the tablet, the chances of things breaking increases.
So glad they fixed that, at launch it didn't work. Try landing hard with a bump, see what happens to the undercarriage 😆
I loved Comanche in FSX/P3D, I purchased Cherokee, Comanche, C172, C182 and T-6 = all P3D AccuSim aircrafts. I will buy it soon for MSFS as Im back to FS, but for me it is not systems, but how it looks and sounds. Everything in MSFS works same from damage model as it worked in P3D/FSX, I never used those features and will not in MSFS. If there was some stuff "broken" I do not mind, just repair everything, If I remember correctly I finally turned off those features.
Was mad from Airfoilabs C172 in X-Plane when I switched from P3D, they added similar functionality with update and enforce it, no chance to disable it and you was forced to update as it was fixing some major bugs.
So it really matter what you want and expect from flight sim. For me it is great fun, just sit in plane, even with engines running ready to flight at runway, watch same scenery, do not mind any rules.. I will bet with you that is majority of flight sim users. Then there are geeks which will appreciate AccuSim features, but it is nothing new, old school simmers know what A2A doing.
100% each to their own. Just as long as you are enjoying it :-)
I got recommended this plane by a friend, best thing I bought in MSFS
Top, top purchase
I almost ran 40 hours in my Comanche and it was a fantastic experience so far.
I started to travel along the U.S. West Coast South to North from San Diego. In the moment I stay in Portland Oregon and I had a few surprises. First the internal oil pump died and I had to figure out what caused the trouble. Using the checklist for emergencies could have helped finding it out faster. Almost crashed until in the last moment I saw fuel pressure was down.
The other thing to always keep in the back of your head is Carburetor icing. Watch the Manifold Pressure regularly and as soon as it drops without changing anying pull the handle full.
Lets see how long i can fly this plane until something critical happens.
Wow sounds amazing Journey. I have just bought a second hand one to fly in PNG...Cannot wait to see what issues I get to face :-)
l’ve got 50 plus hours on my “world trip” Comanche, new when l started. It’s lovely to take care of it, like it is MY plane. everything feels so realisti cthat l started imagining scratches that l might hve done after a rough lnding in Ethiopia, or a sticker l’d love to put on the cowl… Looove MY Comanche! ❤
Look after her and she will look after you :-)
Bang on review. 👍
Thanks!
This plane and all planes are great from A2A , the storage, maintenance required of ownership and taking care of it. I bought them all in fsx, and will follow with msfs. Would not be without them, and put them in front of any.
Right alongside you.
This add-on is incredible.
Like an entirely new experience.
This was an instabuy, I don't fly anything else now, before it was my Piper Arrow (Just Flight) my only gripe is they didn't add in a co-pilot function.
Luckily the autopilot is sound, but I miss my copilot taking over
Two excellent GA, prob the best two GA on MSFS
The big gap between THIS plane and other MSFS plane is that this one has a real soul 😀 Learn, study, listen and treat her well and she will give you back with hundreds even thousands hours of smooth travel.
100% Absolutely
But it is applicable for all AccuSim A2A Aircrafts for FSX/P3D. This is not new feature, it is old, very well known, just introduced to MSFS and Im glat tht htey choose Commanche as there is too much good Cessnas around, even Cherrokee is close to Arrows, Archers... But Commanche is very different.
Can someone help me understand something? When I land and go around, sometimes, the manifold pressure just can't go above 10 inHg. A minute or two later, the engine just wants to shut down. The max manifold goes down and I have to land/turn off. I don't think I've done any damage to the plane, and think that maybe it's something else.
I'm a little rusty, but sounds like atmospheric conditions.
I'd be tempted to run it up on the ground with pitot on, carbon heat on and just play around with adjustments and see if you can increase the man pressure.
If that doesn't work, check.you haven't leaned anything too far.on the engine computer system....whose name escapes me.
@@SimUKReviews Carburetor icing - add some heat. You can also see ice form in the engine analyzer.
Turn carb heat on
@@ysteineker7001 Yeah I crashed with A2A Accussim plane in P3D due to icing conditions, first time I was thinking that it was some plane bug or my controls bug. Then I realized ICING and just carb heat on solves evwerything
Yeah a great aircraft! I have a question… it’s not in the manual. What are remarks? The yellow, blue and white light. It turns on sometimes but idk what it is
I'm a little rusty as my flight rig has been out of operation since I recorded this....but pretty sure you're referring to the Auto Pilot system.
It is quirky and unique, but you can find the pdf manual online if you look and there might be a link to it in the a2a manual too?
Easy once you learn how.
i would definitely like to see some structural damage when deploying the flaps at that speed. hopefully they respond to that. does it produce different coloured exhaust based on engine health? i’d love that added as well if not. anyway, get well soon!
These things are meant to here...I think we are awaiting some patches....?
@@SimUKReviews i sure hope so!
Funny, as much as I love DCS and Falcon 4 bms 4.37. I never wanted to fly privately.. You have a very nice setup.. Those sir, are red x items and shouldn't be allowed to take off, roflmao.. The realism is fantastic!!
I would really like to see something like 10-20% damage then you could say, hmm....that needs fixing, but should be fine for today :-)
@SimUKReviews In Dcs they have a failure special button. In it, you can select all the major systems that have a certain percentage to fail. Adjustable. Maybe they could implement something similar?
@@bulletstop100 I used to fly FSX, flying DCS and MSFS nowadays (bit of IL2 once in a while).. While most of these sims allow for random failures, non of these account for persistence. I load up my DCS Hornet and it's always 100%, unless i manually set failure rate. But with A2A simulation and their accusim range of products, you get full persistence. Meaning you fly one day, and the next time you get into the plane every bit of wear and tear built up previously is still there. That means maintenance needs to be done (via simple mouse clicks) once in a while as fluids deteriorate over time, engine cylinders can break down (especially from misusing) etc etc.. Their addons go incredibly deep, that's why i was so hyped to see Scott Gentile (from A2A) and Matt Wagner (from ED) to meet up at an expo a few years back (there was a picture on ED forums about that as well). Nothing transpired from this as of yet, but one can still hope.
@almightyIrie So basically, you are actually tracking the number of hours on the aircraft.
That is fantastic..
I'm the same as you with BMS (72nd VFW) and we are a different breed of fidelity nerds, DCS too and for me A2A is the only reason I will touch msfs and its a damn good reason at that. Note I'm still waiting for msfs to re download while I watch everything I can find on my beloved new Comanche that I haven't even got to play yet. ❤
if i get the chance, i might spend some time around vne and see if i can cause some structural damage.
That would be cool....Any luck?
@@SimUKReviews i seem to have had similar results to you, so maybe we are waiting for a patch?
Get yourself a trackball mouse and keep it on your knee somehow (kneeboard, strap, etc. I used a sort of velcro.) I have one on my right knee and looking around is so much easier.
I actually did buy one, yet to implement it. But thanks for the tip!
I think the point is to treat it like a study sim. I think its great.
Absolutely
The music in the beginning while you were talking was not a good experience imo
Appreciate the feedback.
Oh yes, the A2A are known for this level of simulation!
Absolutely, now we just need them to drop a load of content and for other devs to copy.
Love your video, but could really do without the music in your intro, very distracting!!!
😆 noted, thank you 🙏
It’s a good aircraft, but it’s still lacking in real feel when flying and especially landing, although in saying that, I think the lack of feel is an MSFS thing, and not so much the aircraft. Go jump in XP11 and fly the SF260 for a few circuits in a light crosswind and then you will understand exactly what I mean.
Interesting, I find this to be more responsive and more reflective of air influence than ANY other MSFS airplane (Yes MSFS still lacks hugely)
Mate that music… please this is a flight simulator channel and video, we want to hear you talk about flight simming. We really don’t care for any music, if we want music we’ll put that on later man. It’s really disturbing.
Valuable feedback; many thanks.
While I love A2A, If I were to buy the Comanche, It would be the 3rd time I buy this airframe! For someone who has never had a Accu-Sim A2A airframe then yeah I am sure they would find this attractive. Not my case as I´ve had the FSX and P3D version. I think A2A missed a good opportunity to Introduce a NEW airframe for all to enjoy! I wont get Into how much I spent In add-ons for FSX, then came along P3D(x64 bit), and again spent a lot on add-ons for that. This time around I have become very conservative with what add-ons I buy for MSFS2020, otherwise this becomes a money drain real fast, and let´s not speak about X-Plane! 🙃 Also prices have become very accessible, I mean you can get a study level 737 from PMDG for 65 bucks, or now the recent Just Flight Folkker! So what´s the point of spending the same money again?
I think they went with the comanche because;
A) they own the physical airplane.
B) they are most familiar with it.
C) lower level of complexity.
All of the above are designed to ensure accusim does what it is meant to do in this new simulator, before moving on to bigger more complex aircraft.
I still maintain much of the 3rd party changes we will see in 2024 is directly related to A2A and accusim....waiting g for confirmation on that.
Originally their first title for MSFS was going to be the Piper Aerostar which A2A also owned until it was damaged in a landing accident and was determined to not be economically feasible to repair. They stated they had already collected most of the data they needed so we may still see it at some point, but is also one of the reasons for development delays.
Yes, I remember the Aerostar that they were working on back then, that would have been a great entry Into MSFS for everyone, new and older fans of A2A. I´ll wait for newer A2A titles this time around, thanks any how.@@RainbowManification
The reason why they went for the Comanche is that they had full access to the airplane and they owned it so they could do weird things to it. They needed this level of access in order to develop AccuSim v2. It's best to make things as easy as possible for the first time around. We'll have to see where they decide to go next with this.
Why complying so much? I have being buying A2A Since FSX so what?
What?
Nothing unique about how this Comanche flies ? Lol you've got no clue what you're talking about I'm afraid. How this flies is exactly what sets it apart from anything else in MSFS. Not only how it flies but also how it behaves on the ground. The whole physics simulation is externally done and nothing else comes close. Persistence is just one layer of realism you get with this product.
Oh dear me no! Everything g is unique about this lovely ac.
However, that isn't the ONLY thing people should be testing.
Agree, I have motion and a FFB yoke and was recommend this aircraft after complaining how other MSFS GA aircraft fly. Persistence is nice, but would not really care if it was not there. Loving the experience.
@@seattime4075 Exactly I had 5 of 5 AccuSim aircrafts in P3D before switched to XPL and I absolutely ignore that maintanance stuff from living aircrat, I just want sit to plane and fly, do not mind if I never land or I crash or I broke anyhting, next flight will be with excelent aircrant and I guess that is what most players do in MSFS. Sure there are hardcore fans which loves it, but even A2A know, so those features can be turned off, if somebody does not mind.
I Had AFL C172 in XPL which was enforcing that maintanance stuff. I hated it.
I stopped the vid after 2 minutes. Take some medicine, get well and then make a video
Thank you for your kind thoughtfulness.
turn the darn music off
No 😆
Get rid of that music!
It is 1min and 30secs long....goldfish have longer attention spans than that.
