It was a pleasure watching you go through how it flies and all the good words about it. Thanks for this review.
Absolutely LOVED the RPM oscillating after Carb Heat on, while the engine ingests the ice. This is an instant buy.
Over the last year I bought many, really many GA planes. I tried anything, single engine, twin engine, turbine, glass cockpit, analog gauges, everything. I read the manual, flew it, and a few weeks later I got the next one... They all just were not exactly what I was looking for.. One had bad Visuals, one had a bad Flightmodel, one a bad sound, one no GTNxi, one no good livery, one no working cb's... and so on... My hopes for the Comanche were really high as I hoped this may solve my problem. I got it immediately and just as I expected, it's just perfect. I'm in love with this like I haven't been with any addon in a very, very long time. This is the plane I want to simulate owning, flying, repairing, it's just the plane I ever wanted and never had!
This and the Black Square aircraft I would say are by far the best!
I agree that Blacksquare is the closest thing to A2A that we had so far. Even though it's "just" an avionics update.
What makes this GA aircraft so good?, Is this a study level?
@@josesantiago8615 have you watched even any second of the video?
The Quality of your videos is unfailingly excellent, Emmanuel. Many thanks!
Many thanks! I really apprechiate to hear it Scott! I'll do my best to keep it up!
I've managed a few flights and it's a wonderful experience. So much to keep track of but it's fantastic fun to fly. Congratulations to A2A to producing such a great product. Going to fly and enjoy for a long time to come. Thx for the video fun as always. 😊
Thanks a lot!
I've always been a c172 ga guy. This blows me away. I'm gonna seriously consider buying this thing. Amazing!
You wont be disappointed
I really want a GA aircraft like this with modern systems.
Agree
@@youpeppe124 The flight sim community seems very averse to glass cockpits. We have a growing number of steam gauge aircraft like this, but I don't see any G1000 aircraft near this level. It doesn't even have to be G1000! There's more than one company out there that provides glass panel avionics as retrofits.
@@JDSleeper it's really weird to read this as a steam gauge fan. It feels like any plane only has glass cockpits, boring screens etc... I don't want to discuss what is better, but I want to say that the other side has exactly the same problem;)
@@Jannik_Stein I just want more variety. I have plenty of high fidelity steam gauge aircraft at this point. The Just Flight Pipers, the C310, the 414, the analog King Air, the 146, the F28.
I would like turboprops on this level...C208B or even TBM930.
I have owned A2A GA Airplanes since P3D V3. I got my Comanche cope a few days ago and all I can say is wow. Best Airplane Addon for 2023
I absolutely love the simulation depth of the systems in this plane.
Another great video, picked this up the day it was released and I'm absolutely loving it.
I impulse bought it a few days ago after I’d been seeing various videos like these.. best impulse decision ever!
12:07 you need to turn the fuel selectors on to be able to drain from that port.
Interesting, is there no residual fuel close to this port? After all that's why I would be draining from there in first place, no? That's what I would have expected based on all the other GA aircraft I've flown.
@@A330Driver im not entirely sure why that is. I can’t find much information online nor on the manuals of either the A2A plane or the real one. It might be worth asking on the A2A forums if you’re really curious
Is there anything on the real plane’s POH
@@Inserico I couldn’t find anything. Not even in the maintenance manuals.
@@ungeneer1506 OK, just had a look at the POH's fuel system diagram. Looks like there's no fuel sump on the comanche. All the fuel come straight from the tanks, which is why without fuel on, you're not getting anything. But the other question is shouldn't there be any left-over fuel in the lines to drain from? It's the same on the arrow, the engine drain port, first flight of the day, there's never anything coming out of the strainer
When you do the fuel drain yu’re looking for water in the fuel 👌
GA ist normalerweise nicht so mein Ding, aber die Comanche ist einfach ein must buy. Das ist einfach fantastisch umgesetzt, um warum sich keiner so richtig um wear and tear kümmert, das ist doch genau das, was immersion ausmacht. Die Chancellor finde ich auch sehr gut, aber das Flugmodell hier in Accusim 2.0, respekt.
Update no problems with the Comanche and the Best Review Thank You
The best G.A aircraft ever. Better than Cessna 172
To be fair, almost any GA aircraft is a step up from a 172. The 172's main strength is being cheap to run and as a beginner aircraft used for training.
excellent airplane , thank you for the video
Many thanks!
a fabulous plane for sure, unbelievably "living" in the air, a must have
They Raised the Bar to a new level with this aircraft
I flew this bird on p3d and your video convainc me to add it in my MSFS hangar!
I tried it in VR and just WOW about performance but some buttons are not evident to join and click like autopilot on steering. Its maybe my camera position need to be adjust.
Always good and instructive video Captain! Thanks !!
I'm sure you'll love it!
@@A330Driver I loved on p3d and I love more on msfs especially with VR
Nice video and nice airplane, great work
Glad you enjoyed it
Gear works fine with default assignment for me, haven’t even opened the configurator program, be aware there’s a setting in the tablet for switching between 2 stage or 3 stage gear lever though.
ahh, that might have been it! Thanks!
@@A330Driver hope that was it, I’ve only done the one flight with it last night and I can’t remember if I changed that to two stage before or after I put the gear up for the first time but I know I didn’t change anything else and it worked with my Bravo gear lever.
I noticed that by the time you got to the external shots 44 minutes in, the luggage you left on the wing had fallen off!
Thanks a lot. 😊
Thank you so much Gabor 👍🏼
Nice review video. For the gear switch. It does read the simulator input. But the Comanche has a three way gear switch and the sim only supports up or down. You have the option in the A2A EFB however to set it to a 2-way switch. Then it’ll operate as per usual with joystick assignments.
Thanks for the info!
Just click twice to get it from the down into the up position and then once to get it in neutral. Whenever I want the gear to go down or up, I just double-tap the assigned switch.
Super airplane and super video. Thanks for the introduction.
Many thanks!
The only issue I have with this plane is that it ruins most all other add-ons for me now 🤣Definitely a new standard in town. I hope their sales do well enough for them to give us MSFS guys another product down the road!
They have a nice back catalogue of aircraft. The thing with Accusim is once its implemented and working, it can be tailored to anything else they decide to release. The Comanche is the test bed for all other A2A products. Development will also be a lot quicker now for the other aircraft. The Cessna 172, and 182 Skylane I am most looking forward too.
@@MrBillUp Ah thanks for that info! I agree an 172 and/or 182 would be fantastic. I trained on a 152 and flew a 172 for some years.
beautiful aircraft!
Indeed!
Emi I had been waiting for this for a long time! I even waited to get msfs until after SU5 .. because I was busy on the older sim in a2a aircraft.
You're going to love it! The wait was well worth it if you ask me!
@@A330Driver yes i finally have three planes now that make me feel like its a real simulator. the comanche and pmdg's 737 and dc6
Haha, love how you think what could go wrong if you do something wrong 😂. I’m the same, wondering if you’re going to get a prop strike if you leave the tow tool (the T thing) on and you start the engine 😅
I have a question that has nothing to do with the video but, im currently thinking of becoming a pilot, and i have many questions and one is that, do airlines pay the type rating for an aircraft or u have to pay it,
With fuel you are also looking at color and looking for sediment in the fuel.
Managed to put this thing down first try without any disasters which I'm proud of. I did bounce on the flair though and was probably harder on the undercarriage as I should have been :(
You have to really bleed off the speed and essentially stall onto the runway. If you are too fast it doesn’t seem to matter how careful you are in the flare.
Great Video! How did you do so that the cabin temperature that appears in the table is read in degrees Celsius (C°), since by default they are in Fahrenheit (F°)? Thank you!
Bought on day one. Loving every minute
Great to hear!
Nice video. I fixed the auto start A2A App by manually editing the exe.xml that was the only bug I found with the excellent plane. I saw you forgot to turn of your landing lights and had them on all the time and you did not notice it when going to external view ;-) auto pilot is something I’m still struggling with. I want to set cdi to gps and make it follow the flight plan on my pms50 GTN-750 premium but the plane’s auto pilot does not support it I’m guessing’ best ga plane in the sim 4 sure. Enjoy
Let’s do a future flight where you absolutely break the airplane
Anyone know how to change the altimeter between inHg and kpal?
Thanks! Vielen Dank!
Really great review, thank you. Do you think that you would have enjoyed it as much if you had received it for free?... I'm glad you paid for it!
Indeed I don't think it would have made a difference. Ultimately I did already pay for the P3D version back in the day as well.
I buy most of the Addons you see on the channel, if something is sponsored or gifted by the developers I always mention it - and as you can see that is not the case that often.
In the end I want to support the developers as well if they make good software.
A2A puts Airfoillabs to shame.
Have you really read the product manual? (;
unbelievable, I know!
2018-2023 💀
I will have to go back to FSX just to be able to fly A2A aircraft, and I will get rid of Xplane 11. My life has been centered around FS. Unfortunately, it is impossible for me to afford all the hardware and software required for FS2020.
Why not just use both? I also have MSFS and XP12 installed.
Awesome review of A2A. You always deliver outstanding content Emmanuel. THANK YOU
Thanks for the check ride. I think I've just seen the best GA aircraft to date in msfs 2020. Will be getting my A2A piper 250 copy tonight.
A2A is a dream come true for us, the simmers. Next level flying! Thanks for sharing your impression!
the ball is not moving almost at all, and the slip doesn’t exist even when you turn at 60 degrees, doesn’t matter if you apply or not rudder. This is not real. The aerodynamic of this model is far from reality.
At 20:00, I believe the reason that that is on the checklist is because in the US we are instructed to keep the XPDR in ALT at all times. ATC radar (if equipped) is supposed to automatically tell when we are on the ground. At airports with no radar there is no harm in putting ALT on, so to simplify procedures it is just left on. I'm very curious if that is not the case in Europe.
Aircraft seems a bit to smooth for the conditions. In a piper 28.. the ac is constantly moving and keeping altitude and direction is a constant control issue. I noticed that the cross wind was at least 6 to 8 knots according to the wind sock. Not enough lateral movement during landing touch And goes. Im not so sure the flight dynamics are correct.
can you make a video abaut how to use ils on this plane and use gps ?
The combination between ailerons and rudder is actually very good in MSFS, as good as Xplane I would say.
BUT peripherals have to bee configured precisely.
I had a lot of issues with the plane oscillating when using rudder, I had to spend time fine tuning my calibration curves, but once I was okay with my setting….alll very good
Super nice review of the Comanche ! Could you make a video on how and when to trim (rudder and /or elevator) for TO, cruising and landings ?
Thank you
Hi, neutral for takeoff (as per the checklists), as needed to eliminate control forces thereafter.
Great video. Well done
I love your videos. Thank you. One request I have is can you please make your videos in 4K. FS would look so beautiful in 4K with your style added on. Also, congrats on your A330 training :) Thanks again!
drops of the manifold pressure are out of mind in this model, nobody see it? Moreover, if you just leave your hands off the yoke during take off this plane will dive into the ground and this happens on full power!
Love it. I wish I wasn't broke as hell hahahahah
hahaha, if you can spare those 49,99$ somehow I can really recommend to get it! One of the best releases in a long time!
@@A330DriverI was hesitant too and then I saw that I still had 70 flying miles on my A2A account so the price went down 7 dollars for me 😅
Amazing video, very well narrated! A few things, pity you missed the three way gear, infact going over the Flight Info options a bit more would have been really helpful in the video. I didn't know but the A2A Accu-sim flight modelling is actually calculated independantly of the MSFS flight model, and it looked so good taking off and landing even though you did land with the wind behind you, odd you landed so short, is that an issue with the simulation? I did notice you had some stutters when landing and taking off, I'll assume that's the beautiful custom scenery being the cause and not this plane? Very helpful though this, so much information, thank you!
So this is proof that you can get a very realistic flight model from within MSFS. So it isn't the Sim at fault, its the people making the aircraft. A2A have exposed just about every other developer out there. Stop being lazy. ☺👍
this flight model uses an external programm. Its the self made accu sim engine 2.0
again a nitwit making noises.
@@peter-mv5gk Yes I know Peter. My point still stands. 👍
I think I could smell that preflight.. wow!
I agree with you on this plane.
Took me a while to warm to the Comanche, but carb icing on approach sold it to me. The stressful amount of time until it cleared, how it cleared and slowly developed power (slowly climbing out of a valley I about to emergency land in) was an excellent experience! Time to read the manual I think!
time to ask for refund)
Regarding the landing gear - the switch has 3 positions: down, off, and up. The first press puts the switch from down to off. A second press puts the gear up.
The strange thing was I had it assigned to the gear lever UP specifically, so I would have expected it actually puts it UP, like it does for instance on the PMDG 737 which also has a three position switch.
You always learn something new though, thanks!
@@A330Driver That's what worked for me, your mileage may vary :) Great videos, BTW!
