Pitts S-2S for FSX/Prepar3D

At first glance, it is clear to see that the model is of a very high quality, but it is not until you look closely that you see just how detailed is. Considering this aircraft spends a lot of time upside down, or at least not in a traditional flying position, it is nice to know that detail of the model is consistent all the way around; whether you're taxiing down the runway or in a spectacular tail spin, this model looks fantastic. Helped, of course, by the top quality textures that are completely void of imperfections, and boasting gorgeous shines and reflections that react to different lighting conditions as in real life. It's especially enjoyable to see this fun aircraft donning one of your own repaints that you can create using the included blank texture.

Every moving part shows the same amount of polish as seen on the rest of this Pitts S-2S. Aileron, rudder and elevator animations are consistently smooth and the propeller effect works in conjunction with the engine speed, which makes stunt flying feel even more authentic.

While some ace pilots may already be familiar with the steps required to pull off exciting stunts in an aircraft like this, this may be the first time for some. So Alabeo have included a detailed aerobatics maneuvers PDF to ensure that everybody can tackle these challenging moves and with time, master them. Before long you'll be entering competitions yourself and going for gold every time. While flying the Pitts S-2S, you'll find that the custom smoke effect can really add a lot to your visual experience. The first time you see that smoke trailing behind you as you push through high g-force turns, you'll be hooked.

The first aircraft out of the Alabeo hangar is the stunning Pitts S-2S for Microsoft Flight Simulator X and Prepar3D.  With many great features and the option of blank textures so that you may paint the aircraft yourself, this package will certainly impress.

This edition also comes packed with free additional liveries.

Review

However this exterior model is where this model really starts to shine. If you excuse the pun. It is simply amazing if you are looking for a good exterior model you have found one here - the Carneado and Alabeo skills have obviously been spent on the exterior of this model trying to make it better than the rest.

The textures are of good quality across the board with not one of them being at all pixleated at close zoom, this as well as the realistic shine that this aircraft seems to have on it really makes this one of the best exterior models that I have seen in a long time - If i was to compare it to anything it would have to the be the Carenado T210 with the shine integrated.

All the animations of the elevator, ailerons and rudder are all bug free and smooth.With the propeller animation that actually works in conjunction with the speed of the engine. Comparing this to the real aircraft design it is very similar almost like for like. Maybe too much time was spent on the outside of the plane instead of the rest of the aircraft?
