Diamond DA40 for X-Plane

The Diamond DA40 is an aircraft that looks like something from a curtain – it’s short, sharp and cuddly!

With this cool little aircraft, you can experience a different kind of flight simulation. Thanks to this Alabeo take on the mod, you can get something that is a really interesting take on this cool little aircraft, making sure you can enjoy something a little bit fresher and something that injects its own personality into things. For an aircraft that is its own style and is not going to bow down to anyone else in terms of how it should fly or how it should operate, this is for you.

Major Improvements

• Makes use of the Vision Microsystems VM 1000 Engine Instrument, which is a fitting and impressive module to have included. Not only does this improve overall flight control but it should help make you feel more comfortable as a pilot.

• Two default X-Plane 10 GNS430 modules are being used, too, for increased navigational function and to help your flights be more accurate. If you struggle to get around the world with impunity when flying this brilliant piece of kit, you’ll love the addition of these extra modules, balancing your flight out further.

• Makes use of a solid range of high quality 3D model designs and textures to help blend everything together. From the correct scale and size to the textures carrying the exact color templates that you would see on the real Diamond DA40, this sells authenticity with ease.

• Brings a cool little volumetric side prop effect to the simulator, helping you see the aircraft from numerous different angles. A very cool little addition and one that should make flying this aircraft as fun – and as simple – as it possibly can be.

• A blank texture is included for anyone who has an artistic style to them and who wants to try and create their own liveries. The perfect way to make sure you are flying an aircraft that matches the style you want – you could even advertise your own company or your favorite football team. The choice is yours entirely!

• Makes use of solid flight characteristics and dynamics to make sure it does more than just look the part. This flies with the beauty and the authority of the original, helping you manage your flights and stay on target at all times, with a model that feels and flies true to the real thing.

• Compatible with all 64-bit machines for easy usage no matter what hardware you are running.

• Enhanced with the use of plug-ins that go a long way to helping you get the more accurate flight performance that you are likely to find in a simulator today.

• FPS-optimized so that you can get the best balance between a safe and comfortable flight and an easy to manage, effective design that is easy on the machine. The finest balance between performance and realism.

• Makes use of full support for the SuperManipulator scroll wheel, adding even better functionality and control than ever before.
