Culley44 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 hey guys and gals, can someone give me any suggestions on a good low and slow plane with a modern autopilot,i like the a2a 180 Cherokee for hand flying but i want something about that size with auto pilot, i am starting to lean more towards learning smaller planes so i can navigate all the orbx scenery i own so i can sight see, thats hard for me to do hand flying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennH Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Real air legacy is great although not a bush plane. Try the T182T from flight1 Turbo 182 with a kick ass G1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culley44 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 i apologize, it doesn't have to be a bush plane, i had a brain fart i guess, thank you for the suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venturi Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Visit the Carenado website , they have the most choices with a modern auto pilot. edit We posted at the same time. Good choice ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olderndirt Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Also take a look at the Baytower RV7 (has an AP) - only two place but it can eat that Skylane's lunch performance-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mslim Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 RealAir Scout for bushplane. Look for something with a canopy like the Baytower RV-7 for shortfield haul-a$$ two place tourer or Ant's Sierra LSA (kind of slow) or Ant's fantastic T-28 (not so slow) or the visibility and speed of the Aerosoft Bronco (shortfield but don't let it get slow on final).

Culley44 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 thanks Glenn i have yet to pick anything up yet,there just seem to be so many darned small planes out there, i usually fly heavies and there is only a handful of them out,carenado makes eye candy planes but doesn't seem to have the full functionality, does the flight1 plane work with p3d 2? its all i use now.

binarkansas Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 If you have a little patience, I'd suggest you watch the A2A video on their upcoming release of the Cessna 182T. It might interest you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 1960 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 ..... I agree with binarkansas, the new A2A 182T is due out any day now, and looks like it might be just the ticket.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegaso Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Brett, not a bush twin indeed, but do you know RealAir's Duke B60? For me this one has become my absolute favorite beside A2A's C172 and Piper 182 (low and high, not toooo fast), pretty realistic and a fine panel to enjoy. With a small change in the aircraft.cfg it works great in P3D2, and the autopilot too. Just another idea.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Pugwash Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Yep, the A2A 182T is hopefully just around the corner, and if it lives up to the wonderful Cherokee, it is going to be in pretty much everyones hanger on this forum by Xmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culley44 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 thank you all friends for the suggestions, i might just hold out then, there is always more room for another nice orbx airport or airstrip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennH Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Ah..no. F1 don't support p3d yet. Lord knows why.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanbatc Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 How bout the Alabeo C207? http://www.alabeo.com/index.php?accion=product&correl=107 Other options either the Orbx RV4 or Baytower RV7 - both have two axis AP I think https://www.fullterrain.com/product/vansrv4 http://www.baytower.ca/bts_downloads.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice_King Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Bush Plane and Autopilot are 2 words that should NEVER be used in the same sentence or phrase.trim your aircraft well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Pugwash Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 There is one little aircraft I purchased recently that I never thought I would utter these words about..."fun for low and slow, different in a nice way & good value", because they have not had the best of reputation for releasing decent models... But, the Wilco Tecnam P2006T is really an excellent little number plus it is a cheap download via JF...it's high wing gives you great views and it can get off a short grass strip no problem, and has quirky Italian style...Plus the autopilot is funtional and even works in harmony with my saitek autopilot box of tricks. I thought I would try it because it was cheap and worth a punt, and it has turned out to be a little cracker for low and slow, just check out my Palm Springs shots in my "Palm Springs 1st flight" in screenshots section... You can't go wrong with the Tecnam at the current price, give it a whirl Brett you may be pleasantly surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilottj Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I would just wait for the A2A C182T. If you have another accusim plane, you know how in depth they are. Scott said they would look into adding Tundra tires later, and who knows what other expansions they might add at a later time. The Baytower RV-7 is also an excellent choice, it will get in and out of 800' strips and cruise around 160kts. Cheers TJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenpin Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Take a look at Lionheart's Quest Kodiak, It's a turbo and can land anywhere those wings will fit. The RW is using it in in Papua New Guinea and other places as the go to plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 the carenado ct182t skylane looks perfect, gonna pick it up, it has the g1000 on it It's a FPS hog, can't do nothing with that thing. I load the duke and I get back my FPS, from 20 to 40. Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culley44 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 i still have yet to buy a plane, kinda sitting back and waiting for a2a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenpin Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Well there is another one. The Pliatus PC-6 Porter. Flightsim Developers has it both in Amphib and wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
