Oh, you must mean GDMP ! Did I happen to mention I have dyslexia ? And yes, I totally agree with your comments.

True!!!!

well said , 100% agree.

@@marksmith2913 You are hilarious.

Malwarelabs

so your saying if i remove toolbar my fps will go up

@@jamesfischer6550 did it work? 👀

I'm thinking it's the core count. I have a 2070 but a Ryzen 7 3700 and it's basically on par with PMDG 737. What are you running?

@@LuLeBe i9 10900 3090 64gb Reverb G2

Same. Sim on HDD (shouldn't matter anyways since all the code is in RAM once loaded), RTX 2070 but 8-core Ryzen 3700. Similar performance to PMDG 737.

heym what are your sim settings? Do you lock fps? :D

@@LuLeBe It absolutely matters for terrain loading. I can't even imagine..How long does MSFS take to start from the desktop for you? It's gotta be literally 4+ minutes

Thanks Glenn! I have a ryzen 7 3800x and a 3080 (I like 8's okay? lol) and your comment drove me to buy the aircraft.

How does the Fenix compare to the FSLabs

Thank you for this comment! I have a Razer Blade 14 (2021 AMD) with a 3070 so I was wondering how it would affect my performance. Good to hear!

I think they already planning to make that

That is why I said update.

We you cant compare fbw to fenix, even they same aircrafts, performance are different, not to mention they fixed some performance issues witch was before, i could say it runs better than fbw.

It was a mistake, you have to manually uncage it. Which is arguably the coolest animation in flight sim, as it bobbles into place.

your system is probably so good that there is enough CPU head room for cancelling out the bad performance. My system was high end three years ago but I already have performance problems with the Fenix (which I don't have in the PMDG)

@@LemonToGo I think 8 cores are the point where performance is similar. 4 for the sim, 4 for fenix (or prosim). Or maybe 2 for each and 4 for the myriad of Chrome tabs with tutorials, charts etc xD

I tried it without Simbrief just programming the Sid and star and waypoints into the Mcdu. Unfortunately it did not work, so I also am wondering the same thing or I am doing something wrong?

Why would you do that. Try to get simbrief to work the aircraft is terrible without simbrief integration

Yep its the only addon where I have to turn my TLOD to at least 130-150 to get acceptable performance!

Not sure, it's the prosim code so they won't be able to redo it. But a few years down the line, everyone will have 8 core CPUs and with those it's absolutely fine. You're basically running the full msfs and then the full prosim A320, that's literally running two intensive applications simultaneously.

Flip the pin on the window frame, then drag the window shut, listen for when it clicks in place

Maybe because your sensitivity in your settings are to high

Great aircraft but can't use my logitech autopilot/Thrustmaster Boeing throttles to change Alt/Hdg/ias.Really hope to see homecockpit implications 😢

Yeah, the performance has been very hit or miss for people. My performance issues happen at both payware and default airports. My computer is top of the line for GPU and RAM, but my CPU is average (it was top of the line 5 years ago). From the various performance info ive seen online. Newer CPUs perform better than old ones

@@sjt375 yep even if you have 4090TI, it won't help you as long you are limited by CPU. The thing is, MSFS is CPU intensive and Fenix itself is CPU intensive as well, thus really the CPU here is the key

If you have 8 cores or more, I think you're good. Prosim's software runs alongside the sim, that's 2 heavy applications, each probably running best with at least 4 cores of their own. Even with my Ryzen 3700 ($320 a few years ago) I get the same FPS as in the 737 on a mid tier RTX 2070.

No, and it never will be. It needs a separate program to run for it to work.

Why would an aircraft this complete come to Xbox lol. Imagine flying this on an Xbox controller lol

This is sim related and has nothing to do with the product itself. If we had a FS Labs within MSFS at this stage WX wouldn't work either.

Weather radar is coming when Sim Update 10 releases. That's down to Asobo. The PMDG 737, Mad Dog MD80 and even the flybywire don't have WX radar. All of them are waiting for SU10.

Fslabs is coming to msfs

Lol flybywire its not even close to better even with some bugs, i dont know about what a lot of bugs you talking about, because i only encountered few ones, maybe what you experience its not a bug but feature witch implemented propertly while on fbw is incorrect and you might think is a bug.

No one is telling lies. You’re just having a bad experience. The magnifying glass has been on this aircraft by the community and A320 pilots alike. If there were lies, they would have been exposed. Sounds like all of your issues are related to the throttle twitch or the MCDU is not setup correctly to manage flight. Generally, when the A320 comes off the flight plan you need to hit DIR on the MCDU and select the next waypoint you’re heading toward then engage the managed heading mode and A/P. But if you have controls twitching that might stop it from working.

@@FSElite not gonna comment on his claims that all Fenix reviews are lies (due to lack of evidence), but apart from that, there's crystal clear evidence for most of the things he said or claimed here. The problem is that due to the huge popularity of MSFS 2020 in the vocal gaming, scenery, graphics and entertainment crowd, the negative reviews get buried, and there are times when reviewers intentionally refrain from pointing out bad things about MSFS addons due to fear of getting lynched by the said crowd and community. This crowd don't care about accuracy and high fidelity flight dynamics. Never did and probably never will. For example I can quote ex-Airbus and 787 pilot and a renowned aviation photographer Captain Darren Howe from Australia who said about the Fenix A320 (irrelevant segments of the quote has been removed for brevity. Misspellings were fixed.): "The fenix is about as "unrealistic" as it comes. Overhead panel hasn't been used on any A320 family member in 20 years. Fuel flows are off by 50%. Pitch attitudes are completely incorrect in short the entire flight model is simply a disaster. The fonts are all wrong. engine parameters are all incorrect relative to one another. Vnav is majorly broken. the perf calculator is a circa 1995 time as it doesn't use optimized take off performance calculations giving far to low speeds for runway lengths. So as for realism..no its not even remotely "real" its a hodge-podge of different A320's thrown together using prosim which is VERY old systems wise. When fenix failed to implement the external flight model from prosim the entire project slid into the near enough is good enough area but when it comes to marketing yourself as the 'best" not only are they not that they are a LONG way from that." 1/2

@@FSElite 2/2 He then goes on to say: "the aircraft flies nothing at all like any A320 I've ever flown. 20 degrees pitch up with a flex take off. seriously its so far off it can climb on one engine with 15 degrees nose up btw 15 is the standard pitch attitude for any flex take off on two engines. As for it being able to climb on one engine at 15 degrees nose up try that in a real sim and see how long your alive for. Id say under 10 seconds before you hit the ground. Fenix completely disregarded the FCOM when creating this A320 ignoring values like 15 and 12 as standard pitch values backed up by decades of flight experience from several of there testers. As i said when fenix couldn't get the external flight model to work it just became a fourth best half finished addon. Using prosim may be good for systems but when the systems your modelling the the IRU simulation chosen isn't even approved for RNP AR and was replaced over 15 years ago exactly how seriously should they be taken. Again this product was marketed as being the be all and end all of Airbus simulations. i didn't say that. Fenix did, numerous times. All they delivered was a half finished half obsolete A320 that represents not one real A320 ever flown with a mish mash of systems from over the last 25 years. Prosim is old..very old and any semblance to a modern A320 is purely coincidental. The failures i.e. the ECAM actions in many cases are long changed from what prosim have. Everyone's mileage will vary but I'm looking at this the way Fenix marketed it and the marketing opinions from those provided with copies by Fenix being spread by numerous streamers without either the experience, knowledge or will to say it. Everyone's mileage will vary and that's fine but all these ultrarealistic claims are unfounded."

@@evidenceplz see this where I don’t know who to believe. A guy currently flying one or someone going off memory. If you watch the KZfaqr V1 he’s flying the Fenix as a current A320 pilot and is speaking so highly of it, and he’s tried all of the Airbuses in the simulation market. He said he had to tweak the control profile a bit but so far it’s behaving exactly like his A320. He said it’s even helping him learn more about subjects they only briefly covered when he was starting on the Airbus.

@@TheFlightSimDeck Flight simulation is a hardcore scientific subject matter which first and foremost revolves around the simulation of "flight" aka aerodynamics aka physics. If the first principals aka physics is wrong, everything else connected to it will ultimately be wrong. This is a subject that you study and research and not just believe what random people claiming to be a real pilot in the internet say. We have seen plenty of fake pilots come and go in recent years. Quite a few of them in the civilian and combat flight sim communities were exposed. Don't believe everything you hear. KZfaq is big money. You establish an audience in any subject matter and say good things about the products they purchase and if you do it right you can make six figures annually, if not seven, just from KZfaq. Science doesn't care about your bank balance or youtube subscriber figures. On top of that, not all real pilots possess the same experience, knowledge and skills. They aren't aeronautical engineers, aerodynamicists or scientists. Not all of them view things in the same way, nor are they all honest. Ever heard of the "pitch or power" debate? Ever heard of Theranos and Elizabeth Holmes? Remember how many people believed her lies and invested millions of dollars into her company? I respectfully invite you to take into your consideration both the positive and negative reviews written about the products you purchased and then use some of your own brain cells to study, analyze and research them instead of merely believing random sound bites. It sounds difficult but it's really not.
