New 737NG Avionic Suite

[vybhav]

Aerosoft Australia is developing an affordable, realistic and easy to use suite of avionics systems. Their goal is to remove the huge learning curve associated with aircraft avionics whilst maintaining accurate and complete displays.

this is great news after the Sim Avionics price hike. very much looking forward to this. hopefully there will be a demo for us to get to grips with it.
will be interesting to see what pricing will be. screenshots/graphics look good so let's hope it performs as good :o
have a great day chaps..... ian

it does look good. Would this work with another aircraft as well or just for 737 series?

At that price im very interested. I agree that products at a lower price point are sorely needed.

i don't think this software from aerosoft is very realistic, there are no sid/stars, the fmc doesnt calculate your t/d or t/c and the autopilot doesnt hold vnan or lnav, not very good.

Could you clarify this as "something you heard" "something you read" "something you have experienced when using the software"
thanks

well this is my first hand experience! i have been flightsimming since 1998 and over the past 4 years fly only the PMDG 747 and i am talking from experience as i gave this software a try yesterday but was disappointed as it has a very basic fmc and the LNAV and VNAV dont hold (i flew the default 737 plane, as instructed from the software).

thanks for that info... nice to know
cheers

i would like others who have tried this software to confirm my experiences, so i hope someone else can also post their opinions on how this software behaves.

Im using it for the FMC, ND and Lower EICAS. I can tell you it works great runs smoothly and hasnt given me any problems. My MCP dosent work with Andrews MCP so Im not currently using it. Although when I did I had issues with engaging LNAV.

Other than that its a good looking well working package, Personally I would prefer a higher level of hardware interface for other brands of MCP's

[clayton4115]

hi, its definitely a very good looking package, however i was disappointed with no SID/STAR features on the FMC - out of interest, what 737 do you use, is it the default 737 or another 737?

[drum4no1]

I guess I should elaborate. I dont think Andrew intended for it to be a super detailed package for builders. For people looking for a step up at a reasonable price its great and serves a good purpose. Ive used the defualt 737 and POSKY model.

I do find the MCP needs some tuning but as I said earlier for someone looking for a step up on a budget it is great. At some point I plan on fully implementing Prosim and theAerosoft software is a great interim choice for me

[clayton4115]

hello, just an update, all those issues i had with the plane not holding lnav or vnav or heading hold, was due to my microsoft fsx game, i uninstalled the whole thing, reinstalled it and now the aerosoft works perfectly and Andrew is also very good in helping as his replies are often quick and he is genuinely interested in helping you, so very good package (although the default 737 is abit finnicky at times).

thats good news, thanks for the update. Nice to hear the support is good as well
