P3D REVIEW TFDi B717

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

This is one of my favorite planes exclusive to P3D. Really want to fly it now. I did a consolidated tutorial for it, if that helps you in anyway.

[@AdamJPestridge]

Ive learnt to fly it now after a few flights and the checklist given. It is a fun plane to fly and easy to pick up. Thanks

Very nice review, it did deserve more than your standard 5 min spotlight reviews.

When I fly I don't like doing flights of more than 2 or 3 hours. This plane is perfect for those type of flights.

Question is it worth upgrading? To P3DV6 out all now that TFDI has their MD-11 out for P3D-V6 I figured I’d ask here I’ve asked here I’ve asked in another channels discord server who are all bunch of friendly people but considering I know you have used P3D V6 I figured I’d ask you I would’ve asked in TFDI but I will not for obvious reasons

[@AdamJPestridge]

P3Dv6 has alot of features within it that are worth the upgrade, better lighting, reflections, PBR redone and the atmosphere is based from an UnrealEngine5 engine, it is worth the upgrade, although, saying that, I would wait until P3Dv6.3 comes out, currently its still on V6.1 and LM are still putting in more features in the sim. It will change over the next couple of years and the shaders will be completely different Im sure by the time it gets to P3Dv6.3, so I would hold off until then upgrading and just enjoy V5 until then.

@@AdamJPestridge when is P3D V6.3 coming out And thank you for replying

[@AdamJPestridge]

@@McDonnellDouglasMD-- there is no plan at all for when updates roll out. They simply release them when they are ready. Never rush or make broken promises, they add features that they need, when they need them. I can guess, that V6.3 would be probably two years away at least.

@@AdamJPestridge I don’t care when they bring big updates to P3D V6 just as long as they make good and reliable updates for P3D V6

[@McDonnellDouglasMD--]

@@AdamJPestridge I forgot to I was using P3D V5.2 I believe or maybe P3D-V5.1 for over 4 years now And only now am using P3D-V5.5
