Larry Hickerson Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Reference: A2A thread "J3 Version Upgrade" My plea for support goes out to my community of Orbx pilots who love to go slow, low and doing it on grass type of flying! Yes, I own a version of every stinking cub or super cub out there. Only one version that I go back after time and time again and that is the A2A Cub. I am asking those who really truly love flying near the earth over this gorgeous scenery now with unbelievable TREES and enhanced grass strips to jump into the fray and speak up for a newer Cub which also can be installed onto P3D with upgraded HD graphics. Thank you for your support! Larry Hickerson Owner & Operator, Eagle Valley Air http://www.ealgevalleyair.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabble Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 ATM I'm using the A2A Cub in P3D, installed via the EMT with no problems. Of course, an updated one with better graphics (and maybe capabilities - a Super Cub variant?) would be nice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Hamilton Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 They currently have three aircraft in development, doubt that they plan to redo the Cub anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipeorgan Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Yes I would buy it if there was a P3D version as It looks cool. I already have their fantastic C182 and Cherokee.

gfd Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I know this is a bit of a no no, but it is quite easy to install the A2A Cub in P3D. If you want to know, send me a PM. They have no prohibition about installing older aircraft into P3D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipdriver Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Actually, it is not really a no-no. A2A's own updater recognizes that the Cub is installed in P3D (which it will not do if you install the 172/182/Cherokee via EMT into P3D), i.e. there is a demonstrated acceptance by A2A of installing the J-3 into P3D, but not the other three GA planes. Since the J-3 doesn't really need any upgrades, I see no reason to make a new one. It is already the best Cub on the market visually and Accu-sim-wise. Now a Carbon Cub or something with real performance, that is a different story, or at least tundra tires for the 172/182. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabble Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Now a Carbon Cub or something with real performance, that is a different story, or at least tundra tires for the 172/182. Have you looked at Flight Replica's Super Cubs? While not quite A2A standard (well, nothing is), they're very good - definitely better payware. They include high performance bush plane versions. I'm now flying it more than the A2A Cub just because of the capabilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remko Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I recall seeing something on the A2A forums not long ago about an upcoming native P3D version soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm now flying it more than the A2A Cub just because of the capabilities. I have FR's Super Cub and it is the best of the lot of non-A2A Cubs IMO, and, like you, I fly it more than the A2A because it is a much better bush plane. One flies the A2A J-3 to fly an antique (which has its charms), not to gain any meaningful capabilities. I recall seeing something on the A2A forums not long ago about an upcoming native P3D version soon? I have never seen anything like this. In fact, I thought I saw them saying they had no plans at the moment for such an undertaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrownCityMisfit Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The current A2A Cub installs perfectly in P3D with the MigrationTool, and is recognized by the official A2A updater, so all is good there. The textures seem HD enough for my taste. I love the FR SuperCub, but would certainly rather be flying an Accusim version of that aircraft.

CrownCityMisfit Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 This is what I was referring to. Good to know. That post from Scott went under my radar. Hopefully we get some added features for having to buy a new licence but I won't count on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipeorgan Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Good to know. That post from Scott went under my radar. Mine as well. I for one would purchase a P3D version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Hickerson Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 Nice comments, but none really addresses the old graphics and repair hanger. Really......... super cub? I have all of them and the only one with a decent flight model is the FSaddon version. But we still need a decent and HD J3 Cub. I have not found anyplace I could not get the J3 into.

MarkH Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 But we still need a decent and HD J3 Cub. I have not found anyplace I could not get the J3 into. There are some awesome HD paints for the A2A Cub. Looks like you can get them from here. And here's one of them in action: >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msv-pFGq_24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
