Any updates on the NEO variant for MSFS?

There are plenty of different communication strategies and styles. Some do like the constant updates others like the news when it is ready. Imagine the time you spent answering questions about product updates rather than actually working on the product. 

Ridiculous.  Other developers answer questions just fine and have many more products out than FSLabs.  

Imagine how much happier their potential clients might be if we knew what was coming!

And that is precisely why you’re not bothered about the lack of news on progress. I bought Concorde in autumn 2023 and after a few updates there’s been no news since the last update in November 2023 - 16 months ago.

My last request for progress was met with this reply from the head man…

Maybe you’re not bothered by such a response. My opinion is somewhat different.

Maybe you can post that here for those of us that can't see.  I'm interested in Concorde when it comes to MSFS, but I'm curious what you think is wrong with it.

I didn’t list the issues since they cover several aspects of the aircraft. My own concerns are related to adjusting the accel and decel points on custom flights. Another issue was the aircraft turning too early towards the next waypoint thereby causing a waypoint on a separate moving map utility not to be credited.

And most things are controlled by the Virtual Crew leaving you - the pilot - with little to control. Others familiar with flying Concorde have become frustrated they can’t start the engines themselves or control the fuel balance.

FSL have made no announcements if this will change for the MSFS version or even which sim will be supported.

The aircraft is perfectly flyable. But some aspects are frustrating.

That would be really great, especially now that the other developer has shared their roadmap and we know what to expect from them.

That's the point, although the other developer is already about to deliver the NEO LEAP PW versions, it doesn't compare to the FSLAB dynamics, but as a customer I will obviously enjoy the other plane for a while, for the rest we don't know when it will be ready to be compatible with fs2024.

How are the flight planning features in general Ray? I notice Simbrief does not have a Concorde profile, due to the complexities of supersonic calculations.

When Concorde releases for MSFS2024, I’m hoping to play with all sorts of random routes while respecting overland speed restrictions, and would rather not get into a fuel pinch.

[Ray Proudfoot]

@Troy Kretzul, I create my own custom routes with PFPX. It remains an excellent planner. I also adhere to the rules regarding supersonic flight.

Providing you have the freedom to add your own waypoints SimBrief should be fine. I always have my first waypoint as the SID exit point and last is the STAR entry point. That way the routes can be generic irrespective of runways in use.

When you feed that plan into the HP200X the accel and decel points are determined by the software and one of its long standing bugs is the inability to fine tune them.

Same with the decel point. Fortunately the accel enunciation is just that. Words without any aircraft systems changing.

But the decel point will reduce thrust so if your own decel point is later I just hit F4 a few times to maintain full power. Irritating but it can be overridden.

I have a few short favourites. Oslo- Heathrow, Manchester to Lisbon and Tampa to Houston. All no longer than 1.5hrs.

So, the NEO...

I'm sure the team are hard at work

When it does arrive, is it going to be compatible with MSFS 24 on day one or will we have to wait like we are doing now with the ceo?

I think it will all be compatible together, the NEO will arrive and it will also be compatible with fs24, at least we have to think that the amount of programming the plane has should not make it so easy to take everything to the next level, if the only thing missing is that they tell us the dates so at least we don't bother anymore. XD hahahahaha
