Stephen Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 NEWS! - Aircraft Updated : Aeropro EuroFOX by vSkyLabs vSkyLabs have done a major update to the Aeropro EuroFOX, a small dainty STOL aircraft to X-Plane 12. This v9.0 update's focus is almost totally on the X-Plane12 dynamics, including the Flight Dynamics, Systems, Graphics and Interaction in allowing you to assign all aircraft switches, knobs, levers and interactions to a separated designated, uncluttered section in the X-Plane 12 assignment screen. The Aeropro Eurofox is a Slovak-built two-seat light high-winged aircraft. It qualifies as a light-sport aircraft in the United States. Aeropro was formed in 1990, and established its factory at Nitra in Slovakia. Deliveries of the Eurofox commenced in 1990. Since 1999, two versions have been produced, the conventional gear (taildragger) and the Tricycle gear. All versions have an enclosed cabin with two-side-by-side seats and folding wings. From 2009, the Eurofox models were marketed in the US and Canada by Aerotrek Aircraft of Bloomfield, Indiana. This firm has named the tri-gear version as the Aerotrek A240 and the tailwheel version as the Aerotrek A220. Latest versions can be equipped with an optional parachute recovery system. Both versions are offered with the 80 hp (60 kW) Rotax 912UL and the 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS engines. Aircraft variants included in the package: EuroFOX-3K: Tri gear version. Sold in North America as the Aerotrek A240. EuroFOX-2K: Tailwheel version. Sold in North America as the Aerotrek A220. EuroFOX-2K/STOL. Major Update Release - XP12 - v9.0 (Feb 1st 2025) Flight dynamics: Airfoils update to the latest X-Plane 12 batch. Complete and deep flight-model overhaul to all 3 variants that covers engine and prop simulation, aero-design, CG and flight controls refinements to fall in line with the latest X-Plane 12 flight model capabilities. Aircraft performance and handling qualities tuneups for takeoff, cruise and STOL. Systems: Airspeed indicator multi-system plate was replaced with two switchable plates; Knots and km/h. Switching between plates is done via interaction with the ASI indicator (click) or via dedicated assignment. Brakes knob - extended throw and fixed pull/rotate animation. Graphics: Various required tuneups to fall in line with the latest X-Plane 12 rendering engine updates. Interaction: VSKYLABS 'Cockpit-Builders-Heaven' was implemented, allowing to assign all aircraft switches, knobs, levers and interactions in a designated, uncluttered section in the X-Plane 12 assignment screen. Project Highlights Three aircraft included (A240/A220/A220-STOL). Designed for X-Plane 12 cutting edge flight model environment. Authentic flight dynamics with authentic performance and flight handling characteristics. Built for VR: Tailored for VR, and optimized for 2D usage. Engineered and designed as a genuine, default X-Plane 12 aircraft. 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. Practice your skills through the Tricycle landing gears EuroFOX, Tail-Wheel variant, and a STOL Bush-Plane variant. Equipped with Alpha Systems AOA 'Eagle' indicator replica. Built-in Avitab Plugin Compatibility (AviTab plugin is not included). FMOD 2.0 sound pack. Autoupdater based on the SkunkCrafts autoupdater - 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 VSKYLABS support forums: VSKYLABS offers continuous professional support, from all aircraft related aspects (operating and flying) to X-Plane technical support. Includes the VSKYLABS 'Cockpit-Builders Heaven' assignment layer. It allows assigning all aircraft switches, knobs, levers and interactions in a designated, uncluttered section in the X-Plane 12 assignment screen. Under constant maintenance and development. This project is part of the VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot' series, designed specifically for use with X-Plane 12 cutting edge Flight Model. This is a great package at a current low value price!
