Matt Davies 11 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I admit I was a bit surprised when Matt asked aloud if it was pressurized. Perhaps a more obvious disclaimer would help clear up any confusion as to what viewers are actually watching. I remember that. I wasn't asking, I was repeating a question that'd been asked by a viewer - It had been missed by the Dev's, so was just recirculating the question. If you were there right from the outset, I said within the first 20 minutes that this was completely out of the box and I had zero clue how to use it - it seems a lot of people missed that - it's in the recorded version though!

That makes sense, Matt. Perhaps something in the video/stream description might still be helpful in case they miss the point in which you mention the disclaimer. None the less, thanks for taking the time to share it with us. There are a good many of us anxiously awaiting the aircraft so the videos are a great preview.

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted May 21, 2013 Author Aerosoft Share Posted May 21, 2013 Few comments. Indeed I think we need to make sure Matt knows the aircraft better before showing it. However he sees it from the same point of view as 90% of the customers will see it the moment they bought it. He was exploring a new aircraft, we should have made that more clear. The fact he encountered some failures was a great thing in my opinion. It shows the great system depth of this product.

mjrhealth 3 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Truth is I quiet enjoyed teh video, though I didnt watch it all. It is probably the best way to show case a product, as it did show one thing a experieced pilot would not do, blow up his engines. Didnt notice much diff in the sound though, doesnt matter it is on my list for day of release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could it be more clear that Matt was unwrapping it for the first time? Still, I suppose a convoy moves at the speed of the slowest vessel. The figure of 90% should be upped to 98%. I'm betting that almost EVERYONE installs and jumps in just as Matt did. Don't fix what ain't broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't fix what ain't broke. Ron, I think you correct in your statement. The MAJORITY of purchasers are going to be doing their training much after they get the product VIA trying and posting questions in the forum (forget reading the manual, it takes time). Step 1) Trying to start it and post in the forum. 2)Trying to fly it, post in the forum. 3)Trying to get the autopilot to work, post in the forum and so on. We have all seen it before and it will happen again. Love the video, the best part is when it finfished and all the "WHINERS" came here to complain. Thanks Matt, you did good.

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted May 21, 2013 Author Aerosoft Share Posted May 21, 2013 That seatbelt/smoking light will work when you use the switch (of course). This week is mostly spend on getting the icing effects on the windscreen and the sound/smoke and fire effects for engine failures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IGrant 51 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Matt: I did get to go back and watch some more of the Twin Otter video and thanks again for sharing it. While maybe not instructional like some where expecting it is still a great way to see some of the new features we have been reading about. I have also been enjoying some of your other landing videos. Thanks for posting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prozac 18 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Looking great in its natural habitat. Looks like someone's schooled in the art of the crosswind landing (and is aptly screen-named). Nice job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasma 3 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Looking very nice. Was shocked at the video but I see it in a better light now, although I doubt 98% of people will us Lukla as a starting point in their first flight! Can I ask if there is a revised soundset for the aircraft, the engine sound in the video sounded exactly like the current version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Hittenberger 5 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 does the autopilot couple with the gps like the real one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Aerosoft Share Posted May 22, 2013 does the autopilot couple with the gps like the real one? Where it does in the real aircraft it will do so in ours. Of course. Keep in mind though that the AP is not like in modern big airliners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
