Thread: RV-7 Today

  1. #16
    This product is amazing. It's probably the best GA aircraft I own (at least it's the one I like the best). Great model, FDE feels great, VC is excellent, sounds are very nice.

    The only thing I would even change is making it possible to use male pilot.

    Why, I am sure almost half of FSX users are female (or have a feminine side)...............NOT!!! I for one will wait until this option becomes available, I know it's not real, but all the same for that price I could probably make a downpayment on a sex change

    This is what I was hoping for too... I'll keep my fingers crossed that Danny will consider this in the future.

    I've been flying it since the beta, and it is by far my favorite add-on plane. I could take the price of half a dozen of the other planes I have bought and pay that for this one and still be happy. But then, I prefer GA and I am an EAA member so I especially like homebuilt GA..... Each to his own. Either way, the flight model is better than any of my other planes (only by a little) and the way it looks is better than any of them (by a lot).

    I don't mind a female pilot. By FSX standards, she's cute.

    And looks human! - not like some male pilots that have been attempted by devs

    Don't get me wrong, the gal pilot is well modelled and easy on the eye (in a non pervy way)...it's just I'd prefer to see Harvey in an RV!

    I have both Vans and love this one. The detail is exceptional. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a fun to fly VFR airplane. It also does aerobatics quite well. A plus for me.

    I gotta say these cockpits are getting TREMENDOUS. Just absolutely gorgeous. Gauges that work that look that good. Wow.

    I'm talking about more than just this one. All across the spectrum, developers are really, REALLY getting good at this.

    It is a GA must have in my book... The RXP integration is complete, full 3D, the gauges in the VC are gorgeous to look at, the FDE feels just right, the prop sound is not linked to throttle setting, it spins...

    I love it. Best spent $39 or whatever it was for months... I mean, even the fuses work...

    If you like the A2A/Katana4X type of airplane, you have to add this to the hangar... it is great for punching a few aerobatic holes in the sky as well as point to point VFR... one for OrbX World...

    Thanks for all the feedback. I just wanted to post a hello. I think it’s important to have a frank thread and maybe when the dev starts to post it doesn’t help. But I am a SOH member; and, SOH has the best flight model forum by far – so it’s contributed a great deal to the project. I think anyone that has a builder-pilot-owner-EAA streak in them is going to get the intensions of the RV7 project right away. A lot of the great things about FS have nothing to do with all that. So I am really, seriously, happy to read when people do appreciate this work. So thanks for that
    Cheers,
