Hi Scott ! Bought the Comanche on launch day and since then, this is the only plane I fly in MSFS. Really like she was my own plane. I take a great care of her. I flew from Europe to Island, then Greenland and finaly to Canada with her. Great haul. 😂 Thank's a lot for your videos.
Had this plane recommended to me after complaining how unrealistic most of the MSFS GA aircraft fly. Really enjoying how it fly's with motion and a FFB yoke and it is now the only GA aircraft that I will fly. All the best.
This is by far my favorite GA aircraft to date in MSFS. Since it's release it has been my go to GA aircraft, there is just nobody else out there right now that does it like A2A. A lot of love has been put into A2A's Accusim and it shows in their products. I would really love to see the Cessna 182 Skylane down the the road sometime. Great work A2A, Cheers!
Incredible how you made this plane as realistic as posible, but more incredible is the way you used to capture the ground sounds. Congratulations for the project. Pere from VirtualFly.
you should do more of these videos. they are fantastic, as is the plane, of course! so enjoyable to watch and easy to learn and pick up stuff from you!
I was eyeballing the Comanche longingly for awhile after release because I didn’t have MSFS at the time, I really wanted to fly it again. I love XP and will always enjoy it, however the A2A fleet of planes in FSX were the best of the best at the time. The absolute favorite was the Comanche. So I bought it again even before I had MSFS. Maiden flight was from the Piper Memorial airfield where the last single engine Comanche was produced, took it down to First Flight, NC and from there worked my way up the east coast. Did a few trips up and down the Hudson River in NY and proceeded north east. Currently the plane is in BIKF Iceland after a 4 hour crossing from BGBW, Greenland. I think I will tour beautiful Iceland a bit before taking it down towards Scandinavian countries and beyond. It’s been amazing to fly this plane again after so long. Thank you for making it possible.
The Comanche is amazing! Love these videos, get excited everytime i see one. You talked about soft field operations, that's one of my favorite things about the Comanche, the soft field sounds. Great to see how you did them! Orbx released Idaho's deadly 3 last night, Vines, Dewey Moore, and Simonds, hit all three with no hiccups in the comanche. Was not easy, but very rewarding to land them all!
Love how you modeled the vibrations of taxing. Sim'ers who aren't rl pilots don't know how much there is in a real small plane. Also, the jolt when you start up the engine. How it shakes the whole plane. Most developers seem to leave that very noticeable shake out of their ad on. But I think it really ads to the emersion.
The last minutes were the best! Man, I love that plane. It feels so vivid and good, be it in the air or on the ground. This is the first plane with which the sound is one of the great highlights. Especially when you hardly hear it. So satisfying to get a super smooth landing, not hearing a bump or wheels squealing but just the tires rolling. You put a lot of attention to details, like the pitch change of the airflow when opening and closing the vent windows. Awesome!
I love it , you crack me up mate .🤣🤣 I can just imagine you rolling around at the local airport in the grass ...lol & the tower looking out & just thinking it's just Scott again doing his off roading in his Comanche again nothing new ...🤣🤣🤣🤣. Will have to try this in the Comanche i bought off you guys see how it goes
Man, I came here looking for how to taxi the Comanche. Instead I learned about Comanches off-road capabilities! 😂 I am loving this aircraft and I love your videos! Really great job, guys! 👍👍
One thing that the Comanche shine really bright among a lot of MSFs GA plane, heck even paid airliner, is the ground handling. It's just feel better, the physic feels and looks better
This is great! Now, MSFS needs to catch up to A2A once again! LOL. A2A made FSX worth playing for me. Now, I see the same with MSFS. Finally, great to see A2A coming into the latest gen sim! Hope you do the J3 Cub for MSFS. That was always my fav. Simple, but realistic experience.
I just purchased the Comanche in MSFS the other day. So cool to stumble upon this video. I was curious of how authentic was all the sounds I was hearing in the SIM during taxi or flight and now i see they are pretty realistic. I’m in a toss up between purchasing a Mooney C/E or Comanche 250.
Amazing video, hope to see a climb tutorial soon. I took the Comanche for a flight around a high elevation area I was kind of “winging it” as to where the mixture needed to be…cylinder’s 5/6 ran hot during the entire climb up to 10,000 FT, happy nothing bad happened 😂.
Very interesting video and thx for a fabulous plane msfs, its a totally different experience. As a pilot once told me about taxi wheni asked, he said planes are meant to fly not run along the ground'. I would ha e made the tow cable longer 😂
Wait, how much your real comanche had to suffer while recording all this sounds? Lets hope your insurance company doesnt find this video...😉Thank you for going the extra miles, even making this edutaining videos! 💙
"These brakes are just big enough to bring the aircraft to a stop after landing, once" I'm confused by this statement around the @1:45 mark. You have to replace the brakes after every landing?
Im having a heckuva time getting trim to work properly on this bird. I use my hat switch up and down for elevator trim but instead of being nice and smooth one click moves it x amount it instead barely moves if I tap it and it jumps a mile if I try to hold it the button in. Its not an axis so I cant control the sensitivity. What can I do, any help appreciated. Also VR zoom is painful if it even works, lol.
I bought Comanche for MSFS2020. Is it necessary to lean the mixture so that the Comanche spark plugs do not get oily during a taxi? This should have been done in Prepar3D. Is this in the real Comanche and is it in the Comanche from A2A for MSFS2020? I lean the mixture during taxi because I did it in Comanche for Prepar3D. Am I doing it right or wrong? Thanks.
One thing that strikes me with your real Comanche is how bare she looks inside vs the sim version. Was some of the interior trim removed to save weight, or has it just not stood up to the test of time well and was therefore removed before it perhaps fell off by itself? I've always wondered.
I (Scott) removed the headliner 10 years ago to insulate the ceiling. And I found the exposed aluminum ribs to be so useful to hang things like checklists, pens, documents, etc. I just never put it back on.
Since the parking brake just locks the pressure applied via the toe brakes, do you have to make sure to apply full toe brake pressure before turning on the parking brake? Is that modeled? Sometimes the Comanche starts to roll when I have the parking brake on. I'm guessing this is the issue, i.e., that I turned on the parking brake with only partial toe brake pressure.
Hm..wouldn't these brakes lock the wheels if you slammed on them fully like that ? I doubt there is ABS in this plane ? At least when they are cold and ready ? Btw the ending was the mint x)
Applying full brakes in MSFS means not applying them so hard that it would cause the tires to skid. If we modeled the brakes locking up simmers would be constantly locking them up as in real life, you have to press down quite hard to lock the tires and the springs in flight sim rudder pedals aren't nearly that stiff.
That's a good question not having pushed brakes continuously into brake fade, but my guess would be yes, but could be wrong. Whenever I've experienced it I've stayed off those brakes. It took forever for them to cool down, which Accu-Sim models.
You should definitely customize the scenery to have small hidden potholes and ditches in the fields and lips coming back into pavement so that people can experience the occasional sudden stoppage of the prop. Ask me how know (IRL Comanche driver)
Can confirm Comanche will offroad in real life. I've unfortunately had the displeasure of a not so soft field landing. I thought for sure we mangled some parts. Not one. The thing is a tank.
Hi, if you don't mind I have a question about the Comanche: The last time I flew it is a few weeks back. Today, when I set my throttle to idle during taxi, the engine just stopped. I remember being able to keep the engine at idle for a long time without consequence (finde wire sparks).
@@Marquuus I thought it may be the idle jet, however when I checked everything was fine. Fine Wire Plugs and Full Mixture, altitude a bit higher (Switzerland), Engine was really Cold first (oat 20°C) and didn't run well so I ran it warm.
Outstanding. No need to ask if J**t F***ht, C****ado and the like go through the trouble of actually recording different airplane sounds with this level of commitment. Spoiler alert: They don't.
The people on my airfield think I'm nuts (Scott) dragging airplanes around, popping wheelies, shaking the wings over and over again, etc. They just smile and wave.
I wish other devs could put the same amount of time to get good sound. Why is that so hard? It makes everyting. It's like not having good sound and sfx in a movie.
too real, bad for my vestibular, need some tea, or mustang, for adrenaline gives me same effect:) absent a2a mustang is most tragic situation in the msfs
shame A2A cannot work out how to add the VR controller Support, its a Basic FS2020 function, many companies have added this but A2A refuse leaving some VR users left out :(
Absolutely stoked you brought the Comanche to MSFS, and love the level of detail you guys go to! Thank you!
And now on Xbox. Could not be more happy and impressed. Thanks so much.
I cannot wait to one day have my own flight sim setup, this is the coolest shit ever, this the realism legit gave me goosebumps
Absolutly stunning. I am so glad I purchased that master piece which is actually unpayable so fantastic it is.

After many years on FSX, I just bought a new PC just for MSFS2020 and look forward to be this the first plane!
you should do more of these videos. they are fantastic, as is the plane, of course! so enjoyable to watch and easy to learn and pick up stuff from you!
A2A have knocked it out of the park ! This may be the only plane I fly in MSFS 2020 from now on.
It’s always a fantastic day when A2A releases a new video on the Comanche!

I want to see the eyes of people that saw you dragging the plane back and fourth :)
Great job!

First of all, these videos are awesome. Secondly, I purchased this sim airplane and it is phenomenal.

The Comanche is the airplane I flight the most. Thank so much for that work of art. Now, what is next after the Comanche?

A2A is crazy team, love them from many years. I'm big supporter of you guys ! You made the best add-on ever for FS. Thank you !!
Great video! I had thought I noticed brake fade a few times but you confirmed it. Thanks again!!!
The Roland Space Echo in the last shot! Ok, now I am jealous.
You are a musician with great taste. It's a mint unit and just a dream to use.
beem flying Air Race Classic routes with the Comanche from the day it was released. Thanks for bringing this into the sim.
Bought it first day and my mostly used aircraft. Waiting for the next product from A2A.
The state of the art recording technique is so choice!
Very cool, Scott! Uh, you're gonna need a bigger truck when you tow around that B-25 MItchell! I am so spoiled flying my A2A aircraft!

Thanks for adding this to Xbox. Can't afford a PC right now so that was a dream come true.
Would like to give two likes. Thanks for all that work!

buy this, this is literally the best GA airplane in msfs right now
Love this series! ..
Great presentaion ...relaxed and informative with a wee bit of humour.
Can i suggest you do more? ...please 😊
I love these videos. Keep them coming!
This is the best aviation video i’ve ever seen 😂😂
Another good video Thank You and Enjoying the Comanche can't stop flying it even if just for a short hop.
Beautiful stuff
Thank you for all of the effort and love you put into this project!
Amazing video, hope to see a climb tutorial soon. I took the Comanche for a flight around a high elevation area I was kind of “winging it” as to where the mixture needed to be…cylinder’s 5/6 ran hot during the entire climb up to 10,000 FT, happy nothing bad happened 😂.
The climb tutorial is next
So much soul in this plane... amazing 😃 dude, let me thank you very very very much 👏👏👏👏👏
Wow, awesome videos and aircraft! I can only imagine PMDG pulling a 737 across a grass field to get the sounds 😉
Excellent video! (and a beautiful collection of pedals and that Space Echo!!!!)
I love this plane!!!
Hi Scott,
Thank you so much for these amazing videos you are sharing with us. I really like them.
Cheers and all the best.

So awesome! Thanks for making this plane that I did buy
Love this aircraft, has anyone had issues with the ADF not working? I've tried many times and the needle never moves.
❤this plane
Awesome videos !
If this aircraft came out when 2020 was released I don’t think I’d have flown anything else…. Still loving it. :)
Really brillant!
Wait, how much your real comanche had to suffer while recording all this sounds? Lets hope your insurance company doesnt find this video...😉Thank you for going the extra miles, even making this edutaining videos! 💙
Amazing! 7:30 whatever it takes!
"These brakes are just big enough to bring the aircraft to a stop after landing, once" I'm confused by this statement around the @1:45 mark. You have to replace the brakes after every landing?
You need to let them cool.
The plane on sim is always windy AF!!! Am I missing something? It’s a menace but damn good

Your module will singlehandedly make me reinstall MSFS. I had uninstalled it long ago because no modules were good, but this is going to change that

Is this in the real Comanche and is it in the Comanche from A2A for MSFS2020? I lean the mixture during taxi because I did it in Comanche for Prepar3D. Am I doing it right or wrong? Thanks.
How did you stop the towed airplane, to avoid hitting the car when you slowed down with it?
I'm assuming he let the plane stop him instead. It's a lot of drag.
@@krozareqgood point, thank you 🙏
Can you make a video on how to use the autopilot?
Sure we can do that

This is correct but you can also turn off 'realistic parking brake' on the tablet

Ask me how know (IRL Comanche driver)
Bien
Maintenant... où est le mode d'emploi du "Configurator" ??? Je n'y comprends strictement rien !

The gear is extraordinarily strong, yes.
Is the xbox version sacrifice any feature compared to pc version? Thank
Can I ask which airport this was?
Hi, if you don't mind I have a question about the Comanche:
The last time I flew it is a few weeks back. Today, when I set my throttle to idle during taxi, the engine just stopped. I remember being able to keep the engine at idle for a long time without consequence (finde wire sparks).
Check the engine - perhaps a compression issue? There's many factors (from plugs, to mixture settings, altitudes, wear and temps) that can contribute.
@@Marquuus I thought it may be the
idle jet, however when I checked everything was fine. Fine Wire Plugs and Full Mixture, altitude a bit higher (Switzerland), Engine was really Cold first (oat 20°C) and didn't run well so I ran it warm.
just found this video, make me wants to fly this comanche in sim right away
Such a treasure

嘿！老兄，你真的干了一件伟大的事情。
It’s a great ga aircraft .. but where’s Heidi? 😉
We've talked about bringing her back :)
Reminds me of an old 80s Datsun or something.
It looks like there's nobody in the plane while you're towing it!!!😳
Nobody was lol
I thought I was having rudder pedal sensitivity issues -- Ah! thank you. This the only plane I fly now.
I'm ready to fly your comanche irl 😊
Real physics are fun
I wish other devs could put the same amount of time to get good sound. Why is that so hard? It makes everyting. It's like not having good sound and sfx in a movie.
too real, bad for my vestibular, need some tea, or mustang, for adrenaline gives me same effect:) absent a2a mustang is most tragic situation in the msfs
wow... who's gonna push the breaks when the car is stopping?
It stops on it's own from the bumpy grass
shame A2A cannot work out how to add the VR controller Support, its a Basic FS2020 function, many companies have added this but A2A refuse leaving some VR users left out :(
First!
