  1. Hi,

    What a great aircraft is this Katana! I'm enjoying her tremendously. There is however one thing I don't understand; I also have the Reality XP Garmin 530, so in the configuration tool I have selected this unit. The Garmin doesn't work on its own however, but it seems 'linked' to the Katana Bendix radio, i.e. when I change a frequency on either one it gets also changed on the other. Has anyone ever encountered this as well and is there a way to solve it?

    I have also run the RXP configuration tool and set the Garmin as COM/NAV1. It doesn't seem to matter whether I have the Bendix in realistic or simplified mode.

    Thanks for looking,

  2. This aircraft will be an absolute winner. She looks stunning! Therefore I find it a shame the choice was made to implement that awfully looking FSX default GPS. I mean, it doesn't even resemble the GNS500 it's supposed to depict. Apart from that, almost all panelshots of the Katana I could find on the internet do no contain large GPS units, although a GNS430 seems common. Would it be possible to put a Reality XP GNS430 in the panel of this Katana?

  3. Well, this is incorrect. The Remos is for sure an ultralight according to European standards. Believe me, I know it, because I fly it ;) In the US, it is in the LSA segment.

    I stand corrected :rolleyes: Looking at the weight I figured it fell outside the ultralight category since it exceeds MTW of 450 kg (which is the limit for ultralights in the Netherlands). Then again, the Tecnam P92-S Echo I take lessons in is looked upon as an ultralight as well, although its MTW is 550 kg. The law tolerates this and I hear the MTW of the ultralight category will be raised to 650 kg in the future.

    Anyway, not a discussion for this thread...

  4. Unfortunately there aren't any good ultralight aircraft for FSX, or aircraft in the LSA category for that matter. I'd love to see the Aerospool WT9 Dynamic modelled. I'm slightly biased, as I'll be doing my training on one when my flying club gets a brand new Dynamic at the end of this month :cool3_s:

  5. I have been looking around for a decent version of the TwinStar for FSX, cannot find one anywhere.

    Then you haven't been looking thoroughly enough, because if I google 'FSX Twinstar' I discover another aircraft developer is working on one ;) It is not out yet though, but has been in development for quite a while already. Wouldn't surprise me if it saw the light of day within a few months.

  6. Come on fellas lets see a supercub for FSX... I think the market is there!

    Agreed. There has been mentioning of an FSX Cub in the 'New aircraft project' as well, mostly by myself :lol:

    The FS9 Cub is a superb aircraft and I'm disappointed Aerosoft has somehow decided not to build an FSX version...

  7. Isn't a Diamond Twin Star under development at Eaglesoft? At least I though so. A Piper Aerostar would be nice though.

    Eaglesoft is working on the Twin Star, correct. FSD has made an Aerostar a long time ago. There are plans to upgrade it to FSX standard.
