About This Content Found in flight schools around the world, the classic Cessna 152 has landed on FSX: Steam Edition.More than 7,500 C152s have been produced, with various options and modifications being introduced by the factory and added by owners over the years. The C152 II variant includes an enhanced standard avionics and navigation package. Developed by Carenado, the C152 II for FSX: Steam Edition includes two model types (with and without gear fairings) in four liveries, with high quality textures, an animated pilot and accurate modelling of details including antennas, wheel chocks, fuel caps and baggage area.FeaturesFour coloured liveries.Window reflectionsFull 3D pilot figure with animations Full propeller effectsModelled details including pitot pressure chamber, antennas, wheel chocks, fuel caps, baggage areaAnimations include: ailerons, elevators, rudders, flaps, trim tab, rotating wheels, operating doors, animated sun visors, operating door windows, glove compartment, fresh air outlets, vibrating radio antenna, opening ashtray, and the co-pilot seat back also tilts forward.Realistic aircraft performance based on real aircraft information and pilot observationsHigh fidelity custom sound setCustom panel and gaugesBuilt-in zoom gauges featuring authentic lighting effectsNight light effects on panelYokes can be shown/hidden by mouse click in VCCast shadows on VCExternal dynamic shadows castNormal and specular mappingBloom lights 6d5b4406ea Title: FSX Steam Edition: Cessna C152 II Add-OnGenre: SimulationDeveloper:CarenadoPublisher:Dovetail Games - FlightRelease Date: 14 Feb, 2017 FSX Steam Edition: Cessna C152 II Add-On Torrent Download [Password] Although the addon strictly speaking is 'accurate', it is now of the high quality that I expected my 14.99 to be worth. I am training in real life for a PPL on the Cessna 152, and I wish for a more accurate and usable simulator version for when I am not flying in real life.. OWN THIS!!!(As promised, I have edited my review since I was able to figure out a fuel issue I was having - if you're having a fuel issue, read the bottom - it's NOT the DLC!)What I love about this: the sound and details. I bought this because I'm training right now and it looks like I'll be soloing in this exact model soon, so I wanted to be familiar (even the interior is nearly exact to the one picture I took!). If a 152 II is\/was in your past, present or future, you definitely should buy this, because everything about it is stunning. If you're familiar with the process, the .cfg file is easy to edit if you need to change the avionics to represent any 152 II that you'd like (I needed a NAV\/COM stack with standby and slightly newer transponder).In summary, if you enjoy the old-school Cessnas, you'll love this DLC. Awesome.As mentioned above - if you're having a fuel issue where you're only using one tank, either left or right, it's almost certainly because you loaded this aircraft AFTER starting the sim into another aircraft with the selector not set to BOTH. This happened to me because I had be default flight set to a 172 with the selector set to LEFT and then loaded this aircraft while sitting at the field. I'm sure this issue will affect ANY gravity-fed fuel system, not just this DLC. Just load this plane directly from the free flight options to avoid it. If you're like me and save as you go, you'll need to edit your saved .FLT file "tank" settings to "All" instead of either "Left" or "Right".. Although the addon strictly speaking is 'accurate', it is now of the high quality that I expected my 14.99 to be worth. I am training in real life for a PPL on the Cessna 152, and I wish for a more accurate and usable simulator version for when I am not flying in real life.. If you are looking for the real deal, this one is it! Grew up in a pilot savvy family and have been flying Cessna\u2019s since childhood. With that said we don\u2019t need to brag about hours in the cockpit, but instead should discuss how many hours that we will be spending enjoying this wonderfully accurate recreation of the 152. Just like the real 150\u2019s and 152\u2019s this DLC doesn\u2019t have an autopilot. If you want to stare at the views for hours while flying with the aid of autopilot, then go with the 172. If you want a realistic experience which requires accurate true to life piloting skills to master, this is the perfect Cessna for you! All original cockpit with old school radios and gauges creates the exact environment in which one is required to master before getting their actual pilots license. I enjoy using maps and writing down coordinates the original way, setting the gauges, and watching for gyro drift while still making it accurately to destinations without the aid of GPS. Only us old school pilots love these aspects to flying, and can be accurately practiced with this quality DLC. Pilot tested, and brother approved!. i installed it but nowhere to see in the game?. I really like it. I was checked out in 150's back in the 70's and this brings back memories. It's not very fast,so you need to bring a lunch if you're going far. Flies like the real thing. Instruments are simple and clear and it is great for a new simmer to learn on. I flew at night, and the dome light was already on. The switch is on the lower panel left of the other lights if you want to turn it on or off. No autopilot, of course, but the elevator trim works well, which takes a load off. Just bought it, and I will fly it often. Joe Peters. This plane is a wonderful addition to your virtual hangar. Carenado pays special attention to the little detail such as moveable sun visors, windows that can be opened etc. There is an ADF and VOR, though no ILS (this is a Cessna 152). I had some trouble setting the ADF at first, but it did not take long to figure out that you have to hold the mouse slightly below the frequency numbers to set the entire frequency. The flight characteristics are exactly like the real thing, and combined with Accu-Feel, it is almost like climbing into the actual plane. A great way to see the country side from a new perspective.. It\u00b4s very good! For real training this one helps a lot! I recommend.. I decided to give this a go as I am considering training in a real C152. For the sale price, I was not disappointed. Handling is as expected. However the aircraft is very bare bones: only two radio stacks and no frequency swapping, ILS is only for left\/right, the GPS is a Garmin 295 (at least it has a GPS!), and there is no autopilot - not even hitting Z works. With the pull to the left my flight involved a lot of right turns to keep my aircraft from veering off course. A lot of real 152s don't have autopilot anyway, but if you want a relaxing flight from Point A to Point B and enjoy the view this aircraft won't give you that because it demands a lot of trimming and attention. The view from the virtual cockpit is tinted and unfortunately there are no options to change it to a non-tinted view. The included manual only includes references and checklists - no instructions. The add-on itself works and it is realistic, so I must give it an unenthusiastic thumb up. I would only recommend this aircraft to people that intend to simulate, train, and fly in virtual and real C152s.
