Stephen Posted May 5 Report Share Posted May 5 NEWS! - Aircraft Updated : Aeroprakt A22-LS Project by vSkyLabs The Aeroprakt A22-LS is a versatile and modern light sport aircraft that offers exceptional performance and capabilities. Manufactured by Aeroprakt, a leading Ukrainian aircraft manufacturer, the A22-LS is designed for pilots who seek a reliable and efficient aircraft for recreational flying, flight training, and aerial photography. The A22-LS features a high-wing configuration, tricycle landing gear, and a spacious cockpit that provides excellent visibility. It is powered by a Rotax 912 ULS engine, known for its fuel efficiency and reliability, and offers a comfortable cruising speed and a range that makes it suitable for cross-country flights. Here is another vSkyLabs project updated to X-Plane 12, the choice this time is the Ukrainian Aeroprakt A22-LS light sport aircraft. I will note that the A22-LS was already available for X-Plane 12, but this v3.0 update will refine the aircraft to the full complete X-Plane 12 standards. The X-Plane 11 A22-LS review is here: Aircraft Review : Aeroprakt A22-LS Project by vSkyLabs The vSkylab philosophy is that you are purchasing an ongoing project, so any aircraft you purchase is not fully completed or is completed to 100%, that is the deal you sign up for to get access to the aircraft and all the development is free and ongoing throughout the X-Plane 12 version. These projects are under constant development: the development road-map is including flight model refinements, enhanced systems depth, additional liveries and other improvements. Feature changes to v3.0 Flight dynamics model: Complete overhaul and performance verification. Rotax 912ULS engine tuneups (power, power gradients and fuel consumption). Update and tuneups for XP12 latest landing gears physics. Systems: Implemented the Alpha Systems AOA indicator. Sounds: New FMOD 2.0 sound pack. Graphics: Remodeled 3-d cockpit panel. Remodeled 3-d gauges bezels, compass case, AP case, yokes. Improved PBR and textures all-around, in and out. Remodeled 3-d landing gears. Paint-Kit update. Interactions: Replaced 3-d checklist element (paper only, placed in a dedicated placeholder instead of being above the main panel). Projects main features VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot' Project: designed for use with X-Plane's cutting edge Experimental flight model environment, featuring superb flight dynamics with authentic performance and flight handling characteristics. Built for VR: development was tailored specifically for VR, and optimized for 2D usage. Engineered and designed as a default X-Plane aircraft (Like all VSKYLABS projects). The VSKYLABS projects are practically show-casing X-Plane, as they are stretching X-Plane default features, systems and flight model to its limits without any dependencies on complementary plugins or software...delivering a very robust simulation model, having maximum compatibility with the ever evolving X-Plane flight simulator. Perfect fit for beginner and expert pilots: The VSL A22-LS is featuring the standard, basic analog cockpit suitable for VFR + night flying. The simple and clear analog gauges layout is perfect for beginner pilots. It is also featuring an optional experimental LSA-grade autopilot. Alpha System AOA indicator included! Fly like a pro with an authentic angle of attack indicator. Built-in Avitab Plugin Compatibility (AviTab plugin is not included). Autoupdater based on the SkunkCrafts autoupdater (XP12 only) - all updates are being pushed smoothly without the need to re-download the entire base package (base package will be updated every once in a while to minimize the gap). Highly responsive and professional support: VSKYLABS is offering continuous professional support from aircraft related aspects (operating and flying) to X-Plane technical support. The project is under constant maintenance and development.
