After the latest update all seems to work well (radio works, no engine cut out on neg. G). THX! I experience the T-6 as a very benign aircraft.
Two things:
*Canopy fogs up to quickly. In the 3 years now I'm flying real aircraft I've never encountered a fogged up canopy. It's my believe A2A are exaggerating things.
* I'm used to step on the ball on take off and relatively hard when airborne. Most FSX aircraft don't simulate this so I was very pleased with the Cessna 172 that does. Not with the T-6.
Did test this with going from cut-off to full power and vice versa but wasn't impressed. I cannot believe the T-6 is that yaw stable.
Overall very pleased with the T-6!!
p.s third one: with headphones I hardly experience any sounds of the winds. It's the engine that gives the input.

Re: Minor observations
I'm agree with the canopy fog. In my opinion the fog appears very quickly (with the Cherokee and Comanche the same).
Flying a real C172R in real life for almost five years I never experienced a foggy canopy.

Have you opened the air vent intake to the left of the starter lever?

You've probably also never experienced hypoxia, but they still model it.avduarri wrote:Flying a real C172R in real life for almost five years I never experienced a foggy canopy.
Re: Minor observations
Yes, but I'm not talking about model it or not, I'm talking about the very short time it takes to fog the canopy. Even if winter, four inside the Cessna, parked and all closed wouldn't fog so quickly.Bruce Hamilton wrote:You've probably also never experienced hypoxia, but they still model it.avduarri wrote:Flying a real C172R in real life for almost five years I never experienced a foggy canopy.
Re: Minor observations
I've also never seen this kind of fogging in real life either. Vents closed up, OAT at 39° F, and a warm body just sitting there in a tiny 152 cockpit, I haven't seen fogging. Nor at 30° F, in the shade with three full size bodies warming things up. You might get trace fogging in a car if you sit too long, but only rapid breathing in a closed vehicle seems to cause this kind of fogging.Bruce Hamilton wrote:You've probably also never experienced hypoxia, but they still model it.avduarri wrote:Flying a real C172R in real life for almost five years I never experienced a foggy canopy.

Re: Minor observations
It may be regional climate related as I experience this in the winter on the east cost. It's one of those things can can probably be tweaked, by accounting for temp/dewpoint to determine relative humidity, but is it going to cost resources that should go elsewhere?

Re: Minor observations
If I remember, and I would believe based on my flying with A2A planes, the window fogging already is dependent on the temperature and humidity. Back in time when the 172 was released, I though the effect was clearly overdone, as it took considerable effort to keep the windows clear of fog in some circumstances. I believe the windows were made to open up more easily in an update.

Re: Minor observations
Neither have i experienced any fog.
Maybe once or twice in gliders while flying in rain
