This package comes with vast improvements to the overall quality of the aircraft, taking in many hours of footage and information to make a true conversion of the aircraft for the truest feel possible. This has been completely re-textured and updated to fit with the very highest possible limits within the flight simulator you are using, giving you the best possible output and the most realistic version of the Fokker 50 available.
However, we all know that it’s not just about the look when using a flight simulator – you want the full experience. It includes a completely reworked flight dynamics system, as well as fresh new tools and adjustments included. This includes an authentic real-time execution of the Auto feather system when the engines are first turned off.
Simple to install, this plug and play addition to your aircraft simulation experience can be one of the most engrossing yet. Every last detail has been included and refined to make sure you get a service that’s up to the standard you originally expected. Various improvements have taken place over time to keep this update in line with the latest changes and improvements to the modding systems available, giving you an impressive catalogue of small changes that are added in to give the complete look and feel to the entire aircraft.

Just bought the Virtual X V3.0 today and I'm really happy with it. I'm not sure what others don't like about the VC. I think it looks great. I'm not too crazy about photo 2D panels on any add-ons but that's me. Fokker 50's logged 10's of thousands of hours so they did get their share of wear and tear. Once you know where everything is, nothing to it. But hey I only paid 5 bucks for it. I'll make nice clean shinny new looking buttons myself. It didn't bother me enough to do it years ago when I started with the 2004 version.
Anyway, to keep it short, read the manual. It tells how to turn on things like electric and fuel. Airplanes need that stuff. Also practice with the ASC. Fokker 50's used that for throttle control in the real world collectively with the GS and nav mode. It doesn't work that great on this add on but it didn't work that great on the real one either.

Seems to be a nice airplane but really hard to start the engines and keep them running. Read the checklist, several ideas on several forums, still haven't got it in the air yet. I'd really like to try it out, I'll try a few more times before I give up and remove it.

Load of crap, don't buy it! Any button press can cut the engine, even a light switch. It says P3D compatible but only offers to install to FSX. It can be made to work in P3D but you'll likely get rid of it quicker than you install it. The worst plane I ever tried.

Worth to purchase for propeler and Fokker enthusiast. As close as real to handle. Not too easy to start the prop engine, but make it more interesting to fly. VC not too good but worthed. Overall it's ok

Kind of glitchy, but I guess you get what you pay for. The sound should probably be revamped and the cockpit controls are difficult to work with.
