Stephen Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 News! - Aircraft Announcement : Embraer Phenom 300 by Aerobask Aerobask have continued it's journey into light jet territory to announce that their next aircraft will be the Brazilian Embraer Phenom 300 - EMB-505,. Most pundits were expecting a Falcon 8X announcement, but instead we got another light jet like the already released Aerobask Epic Victory. On the Falcon 8X, Lionel “Yoyoz” Zamouth of Aerobask / Skunkcrafts still assured users that in the development of the Phenom 300 aircraft it has also actually benefited the larger Falcon 8X. The reason given for this was that the development allowed the developer to reduce VRAM usage in the Falcon 8X by roughly 1GB. But lets look at the HUGE feature list coming in the Phenom 300... Aerobask quality 3D model Detailed cockpit, cabin and exteriors Functional baggage, GPU and fuel doors 4K PBR textures 8 beautiful liveries out of the box White (for painters) and Lo-res liveries available through Aerobask website Smooth and VR-friendly manipulators High quality sounds full FMOD environment by Daniela Rodriguez Careri in-game volume control without pausing the sim Enhanced Laminar G1000 New Synthetic Vision technology by OscarPilote Laminar's GFC700 autopilot with popup Custom MFD engine parameters, with reversion mode on PFD.

The aircraft will also come with the excellent feature of "Synthetic Vision" technology by OscarPilote, there is a video here to show you the Synthetic Vision in action, but on the Falcon 8X and not the Phenom 300. The G1000 three screen avionics are fully custom as well. Release of the Aerobask Phenom 300 is noted as "ETA is end of March - E meaning Estimated", but to be noted as before Easter 2021 No price was announced, but the Epic Victory was US$34.95, so expect the same price position, or around the US$40 mark.
