After more than a year of work, they have completely redeveloped the Twin Comanche, taking the existing 3D model and producing new textures and modelling to suit the high-fidelity lighting and graphic options possible with MSFS. The cabin and panel have likewise been reworked.\n\nThis is an analogue panel version of the Twin Comanche, which includes support for the TDSSim GTN750 (separate purchase required). The developer team will be looking to bring the glass panel options present in the XP12 Twin Comanche as a future upgrade. The instrument panel reflects the original 1960’s setup with the Century IIB autopilot. For those used to more modern systems, it’s a challenge, but a good one!\n\nVFlyteAir is especially grateful to Frank Brunot, the new team member, a pilot with years of experience and owner of a Twin Comanche, who has provided a massive amount of time and input to help them refine the flight model - no small task with a completely new development platform! Thanks also to Igor Kirilove who continues to produce incredible work from his home in Kyiv, sometimes running off car batteries to continue working through power outages.\n\nThe Twin Comanche was first produced in 1961. It is a twin-engine four or six-seater successor to the Piper Apache. Featuring tip tanks, retractable gear and the safety of two engines, plus a cruise speed of 165kts at a very reasonable fuel burn, and a cruise ceiling of 18,000ft, the Twin Comanche has been a popular cross country option for many years.\n\nThe vFlyteAir Piper PA-30 Twin Comanche is equipped with a general aviation panel, featuring all common instruments, switches and avionics typical for a real PA-30.\n\nModels\nAccurately modelled PA-30 Twin, built using real-world aircraft plans and comprehensive photography of the real aircraft\nNumerous animations including passenger door, baggage door, cockpit storm window, sun visors\n4096x4096 textures are used to produce the highest possible texture clarity\nPBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials with real-time environment reflections for superb quality and realism\nDetailed normal mapping for down-to-the-rivet precision of aircraft surfaces\nGround services support (marshaller)\nFull support for MSFS visual icing effects\nNew 'FolderMenu' for configuration the model, advanced animation control, user can set the aircraft configuration in one click\nand additional checklist (possibility to switch GARMIN/TDSGTNXi options without reloading the model, using FolderMenu)\nCockpit\nA truly 3D virtual cockpit right down to accurately modelled seat belts and screw heads - every instrument is constructed fully in 3D with smooth animations\nCockpit textures feature wear and tear based on reference photos taken in the real aircraft to produce an authentic environment\nDimmable instrument, radio and dome lighting, with separate control circuits\nSimulated electrical systems: For example, the generator power in the Steam gauge model depends on RPM. You can try this by switching off the battery master while the engine is running and then observe the ammeter change when you switch on or off various devices. In addition, many fuses (on the breaker panels) are working.\nHelpful instrumentation: The airspeed indicator (IAS, in mph and knots) is adjustable for altitude and outside air temperature, resulting in additional display of true airspeed (TAS). The radar altimeter with adjustable minimum altitude provides assistance when flying near the ground. If you have installed the TSD GTNxi Pro (sold separately), we offer a panel variant using the Garmin GTN750 and GTN650 (instead of the default radio stack which consists of Garmin GNS530 GPS, Bendix/King KX 155 radios, and Garmin GTX330 transponder).\nCentury IIB autopilot: The classic Century IIB autopilot includes helpful roll and heading modes to ease your piloting work.\nDetailed cockpit and panel lights: Pilot and co-pilot floods lights illuminate the cabin, while adjustable instrument and panel lights always provide perfect visibility in all weather conditions and times of day.\nVisual effects: We modelled smoke during engine start, as well as ice building up on the cabin windows in icing conditions.\nEmergency gear lever: Mounted in the bottom of the cabin, behind a removable panel, an Yoke-mounted flight timer/clock\nDeveloped using the latest MSFS standards, including intuitive and easy-to-use controls for rotary knobs, multi-position switches and levers\nSounds\nThe Twin feature a MSFS-native (Wwise) sound package taking full advantage of the new capabilities. Every little detail has been faithfully recreated based on high fidelity recordings from real life PA-30.\nFor version 1.1, vFlyteAir ordered sound from the company SimAcoustics ( https://www.simacoustics.com/ ). Their specialist Mike made an excellent sound for Twin. All sound files from the engine for the sound of fans and toggle switches are taken from the original aircraft. The sound of the engines is modeled especially accurately and volumetrically. Sound is the main part of the update and if sound used to be a weak point of Twin, now it is a strong point.\nLiveries\nLots of liveries for your choosing: 26 different liveries are included that you can select in Flight Simulator, including the livery of Frank’s real N8848Y:\nvFlyteAir (Default)\nN918Y (USA)\nN64YB (USA)\nD-GIRL (Germany)\nG-LARE (UK)\nE31-2 (Eritrea)\nN8326Y (USA)\nI-NASA (Italy)\nC-GGRS (Canada)\nN7581Y (USA)\nN494NJ (USA)\nSE-EOK (Sweden)\nVH-BBZ (Australia)\nC-FINY (Canada)\nD-GMWA (Germany)\nG-AZAB (UK)\nOH-PAR (Finland)\nN7EY (USA)\nZS-KIR (South Africa)\nN230MJ (USA)\nC-FUSF (Canada)\nI-SOGA (Italy)\nLY-PTC (Lithuania)\nN7690Y (USA)\nN8596Y (USA)\nN8848Y (USA)\nBlank (Using Dynamic Registration Number, best option for custom liveries)\nA PSD Paint Kit is included so you can create your own paint schemes\nFlight dynamics\nThe Twin feature realistic and accurate flight dynamics based on real-world performance and handling data, and input from the Twin pilots.\n\nManual\nA comprehensive PDF manual with panel guide and flight tutorial is included as well as an Operating Data Manual with performance data.
