New FSL website and A321 CEO for MSFS

[Hon-Chun Chan]

Will there be an instructor's station to trigger failures in the EFB, preferably remotely via an Android tablet or iPad?

[Holger Teutsch]

Why not just take my money and move on?

[Aaron Brand]

A321 NEO is a day 1 purchase for me.

So to create something like an FAQ
 

• When will release be?

When it's ready - but users will be pleasantly surprised (I believe it was said like that. Lefteris wasn't initially that easy to be understood in BBs stream)-

• Will the NEO be a standalone product?

Yes. Users can still by the NEO only as it releases.

• Will there be a discount for previous owner of products (FSX/P3D)

No. However, the 2024 version will be a free upgrade and customers of the A321 CEO for MSFS will receive a discount for the NEO after its release.

• What features will it have?

Basically everything from P3D and more such as a Techlog, GPS Jamming, MCDU, interactions with FA (e.g. smoke in lavatory and when you call them they will come after a while and talk to you), and EFB integration of GSX (so that one does not have to use the GSX popup) and other stuff

• Can one use the thermal printer?

Yes, it can still be used.

• What about the Concorde?

The Concorde is the family favorite and they didn't forget about it. As it's their favorite child it will come to MSFS if they are satisfied with it.

• What about the other planes of the 320 family?

They will come.

• Will there be EIS1?

As of right now, no. At least not with release.

• Is there going to be P2F?

That is still internally discussed at dev level.

• What about LR and XLR?

 LR and XLR are not planned at tthe moment. For long range they focus on wide body.

• What version is being simulated?

S7 with a bit more features.

• How many failures are included?

P3D were 70-75ish failures modeled, now it is 300+.

• Will there be a wx radar?

Not initially. They could have gone for the 2D projection MSFS provides, but as they have a focus on realism they weren't satisfied as they would have liked a 3D projection.

• Is it going to be released for XBOX or the Marketplace?

No.

• Will it be available for MSFS 2024?

Yes, at a later date with a free upgrade for existing customers.

• What about an official Discord server?

That is being discussed

 

 

I can't remember anything else of value that had been asked but you can ask it here and I can expand this FAQ. Additionally, info I wrote here could be wrong as I admittedly didn't always pay attention.

Will it support the HW Interface for Skalarki products as does the P3D version?

Some of us have a lot of money invested in all the associated licenses.  I recently switched to the even more expensive Pro-Sim because it has supported MSFS.  I’d seriously look at coming back to FSL if - but only if - it still worked with the hardware interface and allowed removal of the virtual cockpit to have only an outside view from the captains perspective.  My reason for switching in that case would be that I would expect FSL to have a bit better “fit and finish” with MSFS than Pro-Sim. does.  The remaining negative would be lack of support for a multi-PC setup, but I could probably live with that, even if it’s not ideal.

[Daniel Glover]

Looking very cool. Most likely going to give this a go. Hopefully releases soon  

[Thiago Braun]

Having a WX Radar would be a valuable addition, especially since Fenix lacks support for it due to the rendering techniques they use.

It feels like a missed opportunity to stand out in a saturated market.

While I understand the limitations of the default radar, its inclusion significantly enhances immersion for me.

why do people say its a saturated market? Its Fenix and that's it. We now have FSLabs. There's literally 2. iniBuilds planes made for Microsoft are mid and they dont compete.

Many of our testers use our product with Skalarki including one with a single seat and one with a full setup.    We anticipate having more information on this soon.

Quick question re the A321. We know sound packs for passenger anouncements will be built in again. Will they be the same format as the P3D version as in we can utilise the vast database already downloadable for the P3D version until updated packs are made within the community?

 

Cheers

 

Waiting patiently for release

You will be pleased to know that we have utilised the same format.

My Prediction this comes out December 15. Lefteris knows why!

Thanks, FAQ updated

Could you include the questions:

Will there be the abilty to remove the virtual cockpit from the (multimonitor) outside view?

Will there be the ability to undock "just the screens" for ISIS, MCDU and DCDU?

I remember someone asking that but cant remember the answers. I hope some dev can reply to it so I can add it

next 2 days or a week.  That's why you don't  give deadlines.

The GSX integration looks the best of any aircraft I've seen. Looks like it can all be done via EFB/MCDU, so no need for GSX menus.

No need to touch the EFB for GSX to do its thing! You operate the aircraft normally and send certain info to ground operators via datalink... that's all. There was a slight misunderstanding on BB's stream about certain GSX elements so that this didn't come through in all its automated glory

This thread reminds me of the old P3D days!
