Test Drive | A2A Simulations Accu-sim Bonanza | P3Dv4

In this weeks Test Drive, we take a look at the newly released A2A Simulations Accu-sim Bonanza. The Bonanza 35, featured a retractable landing gear and its signature V-tail with combination elevator-rudder called Bonanza 35, which made it both efficient and the most distinctive private aircraft in the sky. A2A recreated the Bonanza to a high quality, and its compatible with P3Dv4. Please join Aus Flight Simmer, as he takes the Bonanza for a Test Drive around the block and provides his first impressions. Is it value for money? Check out this episode to find out.

Great review Shane, am always very impressed with the detail that A2A put into their aircraft. I have their 182 and may well get this.Love the rain effect. Great job :)

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks Darren, much appreciated mate.

[@insomniac3011]

Aus Flight Simmer You really should overclock that CPU, that's by far the best way to get better frames in a flight sim for CPU.. I have an 8600k which is also 6 core's, at 3.9 GHZ at my setting's I was getting 10-15 FPS taking off from sacramento exec, all I did was overclock to 4.9 GHZ and I was getting 40-60 FPS with settings very high (in the city). Also with a ton of ORBX addons/AS4/UT Live/FS Global/PMDG. It seem's that P3D requires a set amount of CPU power just to get running with physics ect. and once you hit that mark it doesn't take much more CPU speed to get frames to shoot up from 10 to 60+ so try it out.

[@cccycling5835]

You flew right over my house in this video, nice flight. Thumbs up, good sir.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thank you Chris 👍

[@allaboutstatus]

Very nice my mate, music was awesome at the start. Detail on this model is something else, those stickers on the glass..wow. Great to be back and can’t wait for the next one -Stat

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Great to see you are back. Will have to do a colab flight sometime.

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

A2A has done it again! Nice video!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks buddy.

[@adaptiveaxolotl383]

Great stuff! I got this aircraft almost day 1 and have been extremely pleased with it. Very nimble indeed. Keep up the good work!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks, yeah she will be getting a few hours on my sim for sure.

[@loulasalle5480]

Absolutely the best looking GA aircraft. My all time favorite, fast, comfortable, and sexy!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Yup, she is great.

[@davey6693]

Your opening sequence was really nice mate.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks Dave, glad you enjoyed it.

[@Conti1]

Great video Shane, getting closer and closer to reinstalling P3DV4, this is very tempting! Thanks!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Had some good releases at the moment :)

[@darkshadow7709]

Beautiful, Shane!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks Syed :)

[@loulasalle5480]

As always you do a through presentation, this V35B makes me want to get a a Prepar3d sim.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Would be nice to see her in XP.

[@MichaelVanHeemst]

You should probably read the checklist when flying an a2a product

[@omarijoseph3189]

yup yup..BONANZA time...this little GA always intrigued me some sweet scenery around here..when i get to my GA planes..i will check you some of these fabulous locations you have.sweet video Shane...BTW..how are you doing?

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks Omari, living the dream mate. How are you.

[@craiglordable]

Great test drive. Looks like this will be in the inventory soon.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

They have done a great job. Thanks for checking at the video.

[@harleydeandickinson6784]

My watch stopped on that landing!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Bit rough yeah!!!

[@DalecarliaFlyer]

Hi Shane! Got this one as well as the rest of their GA aircraft. It's truly a masterpiece - absolutely outstanding! But it's demanding as you really need to fly her "by the book". That's what their aircraft is really about and that's what you pay for as well - else it will punish you. And it did in your video :) Once you take your time to study her she will gratefully reward you! Regards Thomas

[@edwardsp1916]

Nice video. Just one observation. I believe for climb manifold pressure should be set at 25 inches. I'm watching on a small screen but it looked like yours was set just below 20. I found 25 inches with 100 IAS will deliver a climb at around 1000 fpm. I agree, it is an awesome aeroplane and a great job by A2A. In VR it's fantastic and quickly became my favourite.

[@GunniesLetsFlyVFR]

Great vid Shane. ;) Nice toy.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thank you :) I need to catch up on your video's :)

[@GunniesLetsFlyVFR]

@@AusFlightSimmer Anytime .. The new mob has got me restarted. Going to try a new editor so i will get 1080p. The last 2 were poor. Going to slow down and get 1 good quality one out a week and if i can sort the streaming out maybe do some streams.

[@Mirandorl]

13:51 Hi! What scenery are you flying over here please? It looks great! EDIT: Oh wait I see, its the surroundings for monterey :)

[@airjuneau]

Very nice test drive :)

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks buddy :)

[@GWAIHIRKV]

Nice video as usual. Marshall has released a video with stalls ( going into spins!). Maybe you could try and see if it is really a doctor killer?

[@AusFlightSimmer]

I will have to check it out, do you have a link? Thanks for checking out the video.

[@Kev376]

You need to use differential braking to help steer you around in many real ga airplanes, normally in flight sim airplanes though they didnt model this.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

I would love to, but unfortunately my toe breaks are not working on my pedals.😂😂

[@Tod_oMal]

Thanks!

[@foxzonenredstudio7501]

nice video Aus Flight Simmer

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thanks Pather :)

[@RainbowManification]

The v-tail adds some rather unique flight characteristics that can get you in a lot of trouble really quickly if you're not prepared for it. I can understand how it got its nickname "The Doctor Killer".

[@SergioGarcia-id6is]

good video TKS

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Thank you Sergio :)

[@SergioGarcia-id6is]

Thanks to you, for your time and for teaching us to enjoy more of P3d

[@speedbirdmuc5182]

I've got the problem with the Autorudder. It's unticked in P3Ds Settings. Do you know how to fix it?

[@Hex2906]

What is the song in the beginning? Great vid!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Loop from audio jungle :)

[@Tod_oMal]

Sorry to bother, how can I get your Chase Plane settings? Thanks!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Maybe I forgot to make them public sorry. I will changed that in about 12 hours.

[@Tod_oMal]

Aus Flight Simmer That's fine, no hurries!

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Good to go :)

[@dalewhite5068]

I don't think you ever caught on to how your mixture was pulled back so far that your engine was starving for fuel and making less than 50% power. You flew for about 20 minutes and never noticed your Manifold Pressure was only making 15 pounds per square inch. What's up with that? Example: The 285 and 300 hp engines are usually pulled back to 25 mp and 2500 rpm as soon as possible after the gear and flaps are brought up. The airplane was not flying well. The airplane was flying under powered and porpoising all over the place your entire flight. When you started your final, you never set mixture to rich and you left the prop set at 2500 rpm. You couldn't have stopped that plane from dropping out of the sky even if you wanted to by adding power. You weren't set up to get any power out of that engine. I have watched several of your videos and for the most part they are OK, but this one was a farce. 75% Cruise power at 6500 hundred feet MSL usually will set a manifold pressure at 23 mp and prop at 2350 rpm. Those Continental engines ran best with rpm set 50 rpm greater than manifold pressure. You run those suckers at higher manifold pressure that rpm and you can blow the head gaskets. I flew a Beech Debonaire for over 200 hours when I was much younger, 1966 thru 1974. You could almost always count on an average speed of 3 miles a minute no matter environmental conditions. The A2A Beech Bonanza V-tails were 6 knots faster than the T-tails and at cruise. No wind groundspeed at 6500 msl should have easily been in the 180 mph range. Didn't you think it was strange that you weren't making speeds of more than 130 knots throughout your entire flight? Just say'in, this video is a farce, completely uncharacteristic of you.

[@AusFlightSimmer]

Dale, thanks for the comment. I would love to spend more time with some products than I did with this one before the video was published. The aim of the Test Drive series is to complete a first look flight. They will never be perfect. I try to publish content as soon as possible to help other simmers make decisions are products value you for money. Thanks for your handy tips. It’s much appreciated.

[@dalewhite5068]

Aus Flight Simmer: Dale White reply: I'm sorry. I was too harsh with my comments. I thought you had said, at one time, you were a private pilot and a simmer on the side. If you're not a real world pilot, I was too harsh. If you are a real world pilot, I can't understand how you could fly this plane for 20 + minutes and not recognize there was a problem that needed to be addressed/attention. Thinking you were a real world pilot, made me concerned for your safety and that; I better get your attention (before you got in real world trouble). Anyway, sim on and continue the good work you do.
