Donka Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Is there ETA on the proposed updates for the Pacific Aerospace 750 XSTOL from the following post? Would be good to know what the future is with this aircraft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilot100 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Yep, good luck with that. I asked two months ago and no answer. I suspect that sales haven't been what was expected and therefore updates (specifically the sandel EHSI) are not a priority, may turn out an orphan sadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donka Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 Would be a shame if neglected as the aircraft is off to a very good start but worse if Orbx are going silent on this question. I know people hold off on purchases when the description states there will be upcoming improvements as they want to purchase the aircraft in a complete state - at least going by the official forums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, thanks for your speculation. Like much speculation, there is no real truth in it. Indeed an update for this excellent aircraft model will be taking place but due to factors beyond the control of the development team, it has had to be delayed. Apologies for this delay but please be assured that the update is still planned and the full intention is to release it as soon as possible. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilot100 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Well thanks Nick, but given the information that Orbx (or its developers) has chosen NOT to provide speculation is all that is left. And by the candour of your reply it looks like the actual arrival of an update is still , well, speculative, AKA as you suggest 'there is no real truth in it' . At the end of the day all we are asking for is a little consideration (as customers) and some, non binding, idea as to how long an update may be. And BTW we are still no wiser. So thanks again and have a nice day. Brian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Hello Brian, Fact: the update will most definitely be taking place. I have collated all of the customer feedback and it is where the development team can see and address it. I am in direct communication with the development team leader. Second fact: As I am not a part of the development team, I am not in a position to either speculate as to how long this will take, or give an ETA. As a long-standing Orbx customer, you will know that Orbx do not give timelines for release dates in any case. I realise that this does not make any of us any the wiser but it should address the perceived lack of feedback that was being complained about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donka Posted July 7, 2023 Author Share Posted July 7, 2023 Looks like this has seen an update. Is there a change log anywhere as I'm unable to find anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an incremental update that probably only applies to some users, mostly to do with accommodating add-ons. This is from the testing notes: This version deals with the Working Title GNS autopilot issues, as well as bringing the PMS support into the package. There is further work being done on some sounds issues but no information on updates there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wain71 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I have had an update for the PC, I believe I have the working title gns installed, so that would make sense.... still awaiting Xbox to catch up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WingZ Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 We recently had some screenshots on various forums showing this great aircraft, and the thought again was expressed that it would be REALLY good to have some effects for it: 1. Cropdusting/spray 2. Parachutists for the meatpack version. I mean, it's what it DOES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
