Get all your flightsim news as fast as I can see them (yes, even faster than on RU-vid) via our Instragram: instagram.com/flyby_zooms/ and Discord: discord.gg/rZh4RWJPDg What routes/airlines are you most excited to fly using the A350? Let me know!
A tip on the takeoff. Stay on the flight directors the entire time. Once you reach acceleration height and pull the thrust back to clb, then you can start to retract the flaps when you are above the appropriate retraction speeds. You do not touch the flaps until the acceleration height. I dont mean to be rude! Just seeing the flaps come up that early made me jump a bit lol. The flight director pitches up high for you to maintain V2+10 on takeoff, then drops to accelerate later.
26:15 to be fair you are still on a SID so there will be speed restrictions to make that turn IRL or Vatsim ATC probably give you a free speed and a direct anyway
You wonder why people keeping calling MSFS a game. These planes are made for Xbox and Xbox is a gaming console. The fact that we got more planes designed to cater to the Xbox crew says it all.
The other devs are taking their time. There is virtually zero competition for high fidelity aircraft so there no sense of urgency to make one. They know regardless of when the planes come out, people will buy them.
@@CactusBravo42 brother you are 1,000,000% correct. That’s my point to these people. another reason we don’t have high Fidelity aircraft is because developers understand people just want a product that looks good so Why spend all the time and effort into making something high fidelity as long as it looks good for people to take cinematics to post on Facebook.
I agree, but to be fair, I will say that several people I’ve talked to who now have like, awesome PCs and fly stuff like the Fenix are Xbox converts. So it’s not all bad!
Yes MSFS is a game, a good game, even the FAA agrees with that fact as they do not approve it as a training aid towards any pilot license…only x-plane is approved!
No support for discontinuities and airways? This feels like such a weird amount of effort to put in. You add in the efb calculations, importing certain settings, the cabin, etc. and yet have an aircraft which can't support airways?
The altitude callouts are not realistic.☹️ Like Aerosoft, LatinVFR uses recordings from the A320 family. The A330/A340 family use own callout recordings which sound different. It sounds deeper and agressive. Also you would notice that the callout MINIMUM sounds completly different comparend to the A320 family.
I think I can agree with your final verdict. If they can fix the ground handling and the manual flight during approach (that pitch thing you mentioned) it would be a nice addition to the sim. But at the end you get what they advertised.
Thanks for the review. Could I ask you what you're using for weather/environment lighting? The dawn lighting in particular sure doesn't look like default MSFS (correct me if I'm wrong!)
***DO NOT BUY!!!!*** I flew it one time yesterday and I’m currently on my 15th attempt to fly it today. IT WILL NOT STOP CRASHING ON ME!!!😡😡😡 no way it’s worth that amount of money. You’re supposed to make sure the aircraft is STABLE and READY before you release it!!!🤬🤬🤬
Can anyone help me? I'm having trouble with the altitude display not activating. Do I need to put in a maual flight plan with the MCDU or is there any easier way to do it? If anyone knows how to fix this it would help me much!
Honestly, we’ve got like five months (allegedly) until 2024, but if you’re itching to dive in, you might as well. The game costs basically a good night out at the bar, and you’ll get far more enjoyment out of the sim for your money. Just my .02
Seeing as now the A340 is only $29 on the marketplace, I think its pretty worth the value nowadays - at least until a better version of the A340 comes out for the sim in the future.
i think this aircraft is great. I've been simming for 10+ years and dont get me wrong it isn't the best but for £25 its great. If you go into the LVFR A340 expecting it to be top tier then you're gonna be let down. I brought this plane and started flying it 2 days ago knowing full well it isn't Fenix or PMDG standards which for me helps and i've been enjoying flying it
Oooh yeah, an A340 finally! But unfortunately again nothing I would really be happy with, as I'm used to fly FSLabs A320 in P3d and Fenix in MSFS. I might have given it a chance with an improved cockpit. But they really forbid Horizon to replace it?? OK, that's the killer then for me. That was the only reason I bought their A321neo.
1. Swissair was grounded on 2.Oktober 2001‼️ 2. SWISS (only SWISS) was created from the former Swiss Airline Company Crossair‼️ So there is no such SwissAir or what ever🤷♂️
Because I couldn't chage Kg to Lbs on the ECAM I did a mistika this time on my flight,always I calculate properly but this flight not really and that is why I run out of fuel and I tought the fuel on the stabilizer wasn't working properly.,anyways I love this airplane and for sure I will buy more LatinVFR airplanes
So it doesn't sound like the real plane, it doesn't look great, systems are very simplistic, and the flight model isn't realistic either. What are people paying $30 for ? For $30 you can get a fantastic GA aircraft that people can, and do, use for multi engine training... Just saying.
Well if its based on default a320 systems, doesn't that mean when ini launces their a320, into being the default - the ini a320 systems, will become the a340's systems?
Can you maybe make a video on how I can calibrate and setup my TCA airbus throttle with this plane because I just dont know how to do it! Love you videos!
Hi, thanks for the video, subscribed. I’ve got a question about call-outs isn’t the positive climb call-out used for Airbus and positive rate of climb for Boeing?
when i try to use the efb the screen turns white and the throttle calibrator is off sync like you think your only giving it 30 percent power its jumping all the way to 60 or 80 and this is on all default crafts unless it fly by wire or headwind how do i fix this
LatinVFR came out with a HOW TO FLY instruction manual...in it they explained how to steer. Unlike the BLACKBOX aircraft where you can disconnect the tiller you must do fancy braking to steer this bird....NO I DONT like this! The A330's are the same way.... Your videos are spot on, thank you!!!
Good review, there are a lot of issues or things they don’t seem right. It climbs WAY too fast for an underpowered plane. The GPWS callouts don’t sound like the a340 (it has a slightly different voice or accent). Overall, I think I’ll keep my $42
Speaking about the taxi steering the flybywire a320nx has horrible steering and its very hard to take off because the aircraft will go everywhere you don't want it to. I have the latest update and i always fly that plane so any info on how to fix would be useful.
Great video thanks. I am so pleased your aircraft made that horrible noise on ground movement. I play on Series X and all but the default A320 make that noise. Sounds like stones flying into the side of the aircraft. It is obviously a 10 second sound in a loop as it repeats over and over. I do hope they update it. Do you know what it is supposed to be, as it really does sound like stone chippings? Thanks again.
Might be more interested when they add Airway functionality but I cant see it coming. I am using the Horizon Simulations variant of their other products so I will wait for them to release an updated version.
The steering on this A340 need to be fix,and I think the climbing speed is little bit higher than normal,looks like the trim or horizontal stabilizer was forcing the nose down , In some occasions the horizontal stabilizer looks weird and I was able to change the Kg to Lbs in the tablet or flypat but in the MCDU or ECAM always show in Kg
Love the Videos keep it up! Just wondering how did you get a blue morning in coloure, i usually get a red/yellow/orange coloured morning i would love to have a bluer morning! Thanks in advanced
I would like to give you some advice, do not make videos with the simulator at night, it looks like it wants to hide something. On the other hand, the plane does not look very good, it is better to wait for the Aerosoft 330.
Paying attention to what a plane is doing, looking at a line, and punching 7 buttons is not 'mental gymnastics... that you should expect from a plane of this quality'. That's piloting.
