Just spent a week flying the real Carbon Cub UL in NW Nevada, watching our buddy Kevin Quinn water ski in his SS, and your video is taking me back. Well done!
Those trees shaking in the wind - glorious. THis vid has some of the best footage i have seen from the tech alpha. Good luck with your channel my kiwi brother.
Congratulations on the video, the sound in MSFS 2024 feels stronger, with more quality. Regarding the comments on your way of flying, I have to tell you that yes, it is possible to make these flights, perhaps not with this type of plane because of the risk involved, in the world of ultralight aircraft these maneuvers are carried out because such strong winds are not needed, also in free flight with a paraglider or hang glider, this is told to you by an ultralight pilot who has left the ultralight in stationary flight more than once :-). This type of flight is used by the army as surveillance on boats with small gyroplanes, also for practice in the first gyroplane or helicopter flights, just a cable and the wind as a motor, you can search on youtube if you want to see this way of flying. Happy flights.
(in french for quick note ) . une idée : si walkaround avec hélice en marche, s'approcher trop près et heurter l'hélice entrainera un déchirement de l'image en 2 par une déchirure verticale rouge, puis le retour direct au menu, et sans sauvegarde. idem concernant un réacteur . de même, buter un personnage sur le taxiway entrainera la même pénalité, ou bien l'animation de l'arrivée de la police avec une arrestation façon GTA, puis retour au menu. ( désactivable, car il y a parfois des bugs faisant apparaître des personnages en plein milieu des taxiways )
I love flying the cub in 2020 so really looking forward to flying in 2024. Hope the camping utilities add on works on 2024. November the 18th- the new Xmas eve 😁
The visual are good but I feel the ground is still lacking and feel bland under trees. I think they should have leveraged some procedural generation capabilities like Outerra did 10 years ago to refine the groud and put an exponent to the realism factor.
The Grass is disabled on this Technical Alpha release I believe. Again this Technical Alpha doesn't fully resemble the final release. Check out some screenshots of ground textures implemented in MSFS2024 there's some really cool river bed textures with rocks etc.
@@flycatNZ I would be careful there. MSFS2020 also promised great weather with dramatic vertical extension until the release data, when everyone noticed that it was not in the final product and was never implemented.
Why do you fly high speed with flaps down? There is a max speeed for deploying flaps and I believe you have damaged them .... seems simmers don't even understand what is the use of flaps ..... and when there is so much wind real GA pilots remain at home. Small GA aircrafts are not made to fly in extreme conditions.
With a 40 knot Headwind technically your not doing what Your Air speed indicator is saying but your Above Ground Speed. If I was Stalling at 60 knots on approach, compared to the normal 45 knots with no wind. Then pulling in flaps at 70 knots when fighting against the wind would be the same as pulling in flaps at 55 knots with no wind. IDK 🤷♂I'm not a pilot but I think that makes sense. I'm trying to simulate what it would be like to be a kite essentially and hover to a land like some outdoor bush pilots do. At what wind speed & condition they fly in as at their discretion. But this is a Simulator so have fun right?!
But I think your partially right it does look fast and I think that's because I paused to increase the wind and the sim never adjusted the effect of slowing down the aircraft so it looked like normal 70 knot speed. Compared to starting off with the wind already set at 40 knots, the plane isn't going anywhere, and it would of taken me forever to get to the gravel bar. There we go a bug to submit as feedback. 😅
@@flycatNZ real glider pilot here. No that have no sense in RL because wind intensity in such extreme conditions can vary wery much. MSFS cannot simulate well the wind effects that hit trees etc etc. In my real life airport in Switzerland sometimes we have strong hot north wind called Phön, a dangerous one but intriguing because after the firsts 1000 mt AMSL then it calms down and you fly for hundreds km with greath pleasure. When you turn back and have to go low for landing the turbolences are again huge. Downdrafts are so strong that can kill you and there is only one solution. Speed, not flaps! Even with a 22 mt wingspan glider it is easy going in trouble. With such wheather only higly experienced towpilot are flying, GA pilots remain prudently home. The XCUB is probably too light for such intense wheather. A small GA goes up and down, right and left like mad in extreme wind condition. Just for knowledge, I don't want to play the professor at 67 years old. Just explaining something if it can help you. I see you are fron NZ. Wonderful place! I had a friend who used to come in NZ in winter for flying gliders there. He was a greath pilot but unfortunatly died in a flying accident in poor wheather over the Alps four or five years ago.
I don’t understand why everybody is flying with these small useless aircraft, everyone has seen the scenery, JUST REVIEW THE COMMERCIAL PLANES ALREADY!!!!

many Thanks! 🙂

Cheers man 👊
Wow! The physics are truly amazing! Thanks for demonstrating this awesome technique! :)
Nice one! Like the water skimming you did.
Thank you Sir!

Trees moving is perfection! This is how it was suppose to be from the start, it feels more lifelike and immersive
The trees in FS2020 move as well, but require much higher wind speeds to be noticeable.
wow... Water Physic is ON...
Very nice video! But of course we are all looking forward to helicopters, especially the H225 :D
Of course planes just don't scratch that itch! 😁
@@flycatNZdespite the fact that I prefer planes over copters, I have to agree, planes don’t match the feeling of flying a helicopter.

Just beautiful! Thanks!
do the winds also help with the ocean white caps corresponding to the trees. How low do you have to be to see the tree effects.
Dont they do this stall competition up in ?.....Alaska?
Parabéns, excelente voo, the Best fly....❤
Have you had acsess to nz locations?
Tree bend in the wind, they don't tilt in real life
You know how to have fun!
Excellent, thanks for sharing.

My understanding is that the ground in the November full release will include detailed autogen foliage, shrubbery, and wildlife.
Really hope the scenery is better when the actual game comes out. This hardly looks like the Knik Valley at all.. :/
Thanks for sharing
Incredible
You just earned a sub😅
Nice but the terrain isn't sharp many others noticed the same thing it looks like 2020. Nice trees and flat land no grass, wild grass.. just flat..
so the flight model sucks ?

Nice vid. Sad to see the reflections still looking so bad and the glitching around aircraft though.
The flooring looks very bad.

@@flycatNZ It may be as you say. I hope it doesn't look so bad in the full version.

Can we stop bashing users which are showing us an alpha tech demo ?

I didn't see any high speed, flaps down flying. Timestamp?
Dead colours...
I'd say the colour is a positive improvement since MSFS2020. MSFS2020 had a weird green hue.

Commercial Airliners aren't available during Alpha test.
@@hpharold23 Big commercial planes are just flying buses with autopilot from point A to B-booooring.
@@rcpilot9963I’m praying that you really don’t think autopilot does everything.
