This is a buy for me! Pricing is good. Features look to be outstanding. It even has the nose gear extension for take off.

I think the control for the dragchute is reversed.

To be honest, the textures of the model itself (except for the VC) are just horrible.

Simply nothing but text files in my Community Folder. No Paint Kit, no Textures. Yet, it shows up in MSFS?

If you purchased via the marketplace the folder will not be in the community folder but the main folder.
Then very weird.
Bought from just flight, got everything I expected including textures and manual (except can't find a paintkit)
My installed files are in D:\MSFS\Community\justflight-aircraft-f5e
Normally DCD stuff is in a dcd folder, eg dcdesigns-aircraft-f4
Wasn't going to buy it without seeing a few reviews...but the Discord channel had a warning that the roll-rate (720 deg/sec) could cause nausea to VR users so I had to try it.
No problems and the roll-rate is impressive
Cockpit is very nice inside, probably best DC cockpit so far, particularly in subdued weather.
In bright sunlight all goes very reflective
Also quite a few bugs in the cockpit, has anybody been able to turn the gunsight brightness down?
I went for it. Very disappointed that the HGU-33 default helmet provided is wrong for all current user forces and we can't use the Asobo HGU-55.
This a shot I took at Fallon before VFC-13 "The Saints" converted to the F-16 but is a good illustration of the white HGU-55 helmet used with this jet by US Navy and US Marine Corps units.
I believe the Swiss guys use the grey (USAF) version of the HGU-55

Well I found everything but a paint kit. There is a texture folder named common textures, perhaps that is it? There are two folders in my Community Folder for the F-5E, one is the one I showed, under DC Design, but the other is justflight-aircraft-f5e and that is the one with all the information. Still no PSD Paint Kit or Blender Paint Kit.

The product page on justflight.com says a paint kit is included.
However, I can confirm after poking through both the extraneous scdesigns-aircraft-f5e folder and the actual justflight-aircraft-f5e folder, my installation contains no paint kit.
We need to get Jankees and TiAir their paint kits!
Bought it about half an hour after released but had the chance for a test ride just a few minutes ago. It's way better than Deimos and Venom iterations, feels way better (heavier) and flies exact like I'd expect it from my several visits in Meiringen, at least regarding take-off and recovery.
Now it's time for the painters, we need swiss liveries!
From the screenshots (don't have it myself) it looks like Dean used the 1960's USAF HGU-2A/P(or 80's 26/P) flight helmet from his F-4 Phantom crew for his F-5E TigerII pilot( HGU-33 is the Navy/Marines variant) while it should've been the still current grey USAF HGU-55/P with MBU-20/P O2 mask that his F-15 and F-16 pilots are wearing. Maybe if asked nicely he will exchange them in a quick fix.
No buy for me, only interested in F-5A and -B (NF-5A/B to be exact)
I am severely ADHD and OCD and I am old, so unlike young folks, I expect things to be correct and punctual. I sent a ticket to Just Flight concerning the Paint Kit, but have received no reply. Like I expect one this day and time. The Manual is listed as a separate download, yet there are three .pdf documents in the Community Folder for the F-5E including the Manual.
Oh well, she flies nice, so I guess I shouldn't complain.
Cazzie
I'm afraid I'm with Javis, only really interested in the (N)F-5A...
You can find most of my repaints for FSX/P3D in the library here on the outhouse.
For MFS paints go to flightsim.to
I am assuming that the texture.base is the one to use for repaints. be nice to have a wireframe.

Cazzie, I pinged DC Designs on Facebook. Paintkit's not in the initial release but sounds like it will be in the first update.
"It will follow, just making sure there are no deal breakers in there before updating the package "
