Great review! My real issue with this aircraft is the performance hit. inibuilds needs to address this. No way Fenix using external app should be getting 30fps more than this.

Very entertaining and informative, none of 1 hour and 18 minutes was boring, great work

Loving the aircraft! Thanks msfs and inibuilds!

Even after 4 years flying in MSFS2020 I am still amazed how realistic flight simulators have become. All those details, wow

It’s nice they simulated bowed rotor motoring. The faster rate of climb I think was more due to the fact that CLB thrust was higher than FLX, but maybe there is some door drag included. I hope those bugs you mentioned will be sorted out, and things like proper flare nose down input will be simulated. RF legs need some polishing too, AP does not follow them correctly. No moaning, they just set the bar so high. Considering the changes they made in such a short time, I don’t think this would be a problem for Ini.

I think the descent rate issue occured while setting the destination QNH.. I loved this video !!! Great !!

For a freeware, this is amazing, I love the fact that it has Vnav and complete FMS which I hope FBW would implement soon.

A great and honest review - I must say we are so lucky to have the choice of this, the FBW and the Fenix. I for one will be using all three (I used to fly out in the Fenix and return in the FBW but I will have to change my aircraft assignments now!). LatinVFR the other 32x series developer in my opinion needs to catch up.

Thanks for this great review, now I definitely have to get off my GA planes and try this one. Great work you're doing on YT, I especially like how you switch seats and talk happily to yourself ;) By the way, I've seen the same mach jumping on the Fenix ​​descent page, maybe an A320 thing? Thanks again.

I love the A310 from iniBuilds and still love it, but the A320, the light and texture is much better, amazing update, you can see and feel the improvement, it would be nice if they updated the A310 like the A300.... I Like both airplanes, I prefer to fly the A310 because it is more "manual" than the A320, it is undoubtedly a great airplane but the feeling is not the same, it's so automatic, it's like a computer... incredible job, imagine where we will be in the next 10 years.... :) nice video, thanks

Excellent as always. You were going to share your settings one day? Cheers

Before I came across your channel a few months ago, I didn't knew anything on A320, but now I can say that I'm making great progress just by watching your videos! Keep up the great work!

great video once again. on an unrelated question, in what situations would you use the ILS or VOR modes on the EFIS panel?

Thanks for the review, the system freeze is one thing I experienced too !

Great thanks. Could you do a side by side comparison with the flybywire?❤

I see you don't use GSX much, is that due to performance? I wonder if that is what causing issue people have with stuttering etc.

For ground handling, are you using a dedicated tiller or rudder pedals? Thanks for the review! Other than the mediocre sounds, for me anyway, I really enjoyed the aircraft so far. Plus, as you said, it is free....

I experimented the same issue with the pmdg after the SU15 (frozen cockpit)

Downloaded, but parked in hanger. RW thunderstorms approaching, PC and LAN now INOP - iPad with 4G on MEL… Thanks as always, Emi - looking forward to trying this one out. 👍

I’m glad other devs are tackling the A32X family as well, but I’m so partial to the Fenix these days as nobody has really came close to the fidelity or the performance (especially with block 2 ver 2) that I just don’t have an interest in flying any other build, I would like to see them focus on other Airbus types (A33, A35, A38, etc) I would say even the A319 or A321 but I know Fenix is actively working on adding these variant as well to their series. As a complete aside, on thing that has been driving me crazy with the most recent release of the Fenix is the art department’s bug with the stitching on the FO’s seat, where the stitching outline texture stays static in free space when you adjust the seat fwd and aft… I wish they would have just released an immediate hotfix for this. Its almost unnoticeable to most (and not noticeable if you don’t adjust the seat) but one of the first things I do when entering the flight deck for a C&D non-turnaround flight is adjust the position of both seats so it’s one of those things that’s been annoying the hell out of me. As a matter of fact if anyone knows if there’s a way I can fix this myself (by maybe temporarily deleting this texture?) let me know 🍻🍻

It’s pretty sweet for a free default aircraft. However, I was conducting an autoland at kmia on 8R and it thought the runway was 50 feet AGL so it was flaring 50’ above the ground 😂 Obviously still some bugs to sort out.

Excellent review thanks! I just need a 757-200 and my FS2020 world will be complete! 😂

Once the fp is starting deleting a wp distrups flight plan. Starting a cost index cannot change airspeed, and yes I’ve been flying online since MS95

Hello, you make great videos, thank you. I don't have an INIT request to load the flight plan in the MCDU on the 320neo v2. Why might I be missing this?

Direct Shortcut instructions on approach is a problem I'm having with BATC.. I would be om a Star following the GS perfectly on the green dot all the way down when ATC sends me direct to a waypoint closer to my final approach point resulting on a much higher descent profile forcing a go-around!

Is there a way to turn on the cabin lights for our passengers? At night you can barely see anything. Thank you for your awesome videos!

Hello, thank you for your videos, they are super informative and fun. I am struggling to link my SimBrief pilot ID linked electronic bag, I have tried my user name and pilot ID but it still won't connect. Can you assist?

Love to see MSFS getting even better every day

I am curious to know can you hear the power transfer unit from the cockpit aka the barking dog? If not I wonder do they model this in the cabin?

Meanwhile: *trucks casually drives through wing*

So question… when I use a pre programmed flight plan from MSFS it dosent follow AUTOPILOT why is this and how do I fix it?

I have an issue with A320. The RAD/NAV frequency page for ILS does not populate itself after insert the ILS approach. Only VOR frequency does. I must put manually the ILS identity of runway to select frequency. How can I solve this issue?

It is very good, I think the FBW is probably better both for systems modelling and also sound imo, but the graphics and little details on this one are so nice I think I will spend a lot of time with it just for that reason alone. It does really bother me though that we can have nice things like the working side-window sun shades and even the window themselves being openable on the ground on this free A320n but iniBuilds decided that we can't have that on the actual payware aircraft like the A300 (even the tray tables and foot rests in this work!)

Hi Emmanuel . I had finished flight from Oslo to London . I had to to face autopilot issue as when I descent speed increases and autopilot get disconnected . Any solution or its bug.

Before taking off do I set the trim for example 1/0.4up or do I leave it zero. If I set it zero does the plane automatically put it to 1/0.4up.

Its an ok aircraft. The sounds during takeoff are weak compared to the FBW and I cant get it to follow the constraints on the flight plan when descending I had to switch to v/s mode. Also not all approaches are programmed into the mcdu. The aircraft feels very floaty and light. The FBW would still be my go to.

The plane froze on me once. My real issue is takeoff and landing. The plane wants to pull hard left or right

dont have the option to import flight plan from simbrief into the fmc. on the efb it works normally... any idea?

hello captain. how weather and clouds Effect on the flight on MFS i mean turbulace and etc .... and how real is it . can we have a video on this issue ?

I havent been able to fly the plane, every time I load it and hover the mouse over the tablet they turn white not allowing me to disconnect the Power Unit or do anything at all.

What do you use for your sunset or sunrise sky texture

when you approach and change to visual approach, do you just turn off AP and follow the FD?

Hello!! The 320 inibuids must be downloaded from the Market ? The one you have by default in the SIM is the Asobo?

Best MSFS KZfaqr hand down!

When lowering flaps, is it done after I’ve hit activate approch

I have the enchased version but still cannot open the dore. What is happening?

It's really hard for me to get excited about this we already had a great a320neo. Nothing against ini because they make great products. But this seems like a missed opportunity to bring something new to the sim like a true A321neo (Horizon Simulations LVFR mod by their own admitiion still needs some work) An Ini A321Neo would have all the system and features presented here it just be in the new 321. I feel the a320 is becoming the new 737 in the sim. There will be various versions everywhere 😂

Are you using kind of texture enhancement? And I cannot find the cabin expansion. Can you give us the link?

I tried using the plane but I could not get nose wheel steering to work. The turn radius of the thing during taxi was atrocious. Tried binding NSW buttons on the controls to no avail.

One small thing ive noticed is with gpws landing flap 3 selected,i still get the too low flap gpws callout.

I know the FBW doesn't do RNAV. Does this neo do RNAV?

Do you think about creating a tutorial video for this aircraft? it would help a lot of people

The DIRECT page of the ini A320 looks a bit different compared to other Airbus Sims across the other simulators. Are ther airbuses with such a DIRECT page?

I really like the iniBuilds A320neo, the only thing is during rotation (V1,VR) you have to pull back on the stick pretty far in order to make the nose come up.

Anyone else having an issue where near the top of climb, say above FL260, even in managed climb, you find yourself flirting with AFLOOR and stalling, forcing the aircraft into TOGA Lock? Once that happens it’s like a roller coaster up and down unless I take manual control, lose about 3,000 feet of altitude trading for airspeed.

which one would you suggest personally, this one or the fbw?

Looord how good does the sky look at the start of the video?? 🎉

Great review. Upfront positioning as default aircraft and not study level. Coming from direction of travel to develop SIM flying skills to progressively gain experience to emulate real Airbus pilot training. Importantly from own investigation , have found that NEO2 does not support: 1. FS2Crew for Flying pilot and monitoring pilot processes and flows training. 2. Your Controls for dual pilot training which works well with FS2Crew. 3. FSIPanel for excellent simulation flight training including full OFP and fault training. Works well in conjunction with FS2Crew and Your Controls, allbeit with a few duplications of commands, such as Request Pushback and Startup and Request to Taxi. In Fénix FSIPanel Star approaches works well with Your controls and FS2Crew. 4. Third party flight controls not mapping. Example Logitech multi panel altitude change . Hence Spadnext or similar mapping tool required that requires detailed product knowledge. As a comparison NEO2 supports little of above and on occasions not at all. Hence your summary of Neo2 as a good if not best default aircraft to date is very accurate. Not to be confused with study level aircraft . Hence for this Fénix is still way to go. As a comparison not made ,FBW does not support FSIPanel advanced for faults and advanced training scenarios. Nor is it study level .Hence Fénix by exception is most appropriate for detailed Airbus A320 flight simulation pilot training . Your recent detailed 15 part Airbus 320 training series is excellent , much in use with FS2Crew and Your Controls. and FSIPanel. Neo 2 is great for those flight summers not wanting the complexity of a full study level aircraft and wish to learn and enjoy, before advancing to above considerations .Thankyou and much appreciated.

While I like the new A20N I still wonder about the FlyByWire "case" - iniBuilds never said a word about the claims regarding stolen code, yet they decided since to encrypt the files. They did the same thing on the A310 but from start and told (iirc) that there is no other way for them to publish these aircraft (which obviously is not true). To me this is a bit fishy on both aircraft so maybe they used some FBW avionics code on both to progress faster as systems are the most complicated thing. For "freeware" (or commissioned work) they might want to keep development time rather short.

Has anyone come across the problem where the plane wouldn't re-engage nav after flying in hdg mode?

Managed altitude doesnt initiate descent at TD. I need yo use command to get a descent?

i can't do 90 degrees turn on A320 inibuids, what i'm doing wrong ?

Guys, I'm on Xbox, and so far I haven't been able to complete any flight on this aircraft, during the cockpit preparation it just freezes everything, and that's it. I'm really looking forward to giving the A320 a good try (I'm a Boeing guy), but so far nothing. Has anyone had this problem and managed to fix it?

Does this have a navigraph integration for charts?

I use In-game ATC and everytime i try to click it it dosent want to click it just hovers,this is without ai controlling with it it dosent even hover or click any reason why?

the power during takeoff seems weak?`or is it correct?

Is there a rule of thumb for how hot the temperature needs to get before you use a packs-on takeoff? Obviously the weight and runway length factor into it, but for instance if you’re flying out of Phoenix, AZ in August at 115F, your passengers would turn into soup if you kept the packs off for taxi/takeoff.

1 in 5 of my flights are successful due to the aircraft freezing.

It is impossible to apply for IFR clarence with the ATC

I cannot get the cabin on my sim. I’ve searched the marketplace I don’t see it! Where is it?!

Does anybody have issues that they cant turn on ground, or atleast find it hard to turn and know how to fix it?

6:49 that issue is a no for me unfortunately

@6:55 countless things could have caused this. Hopefully rare

Unusable here due to performance hit ! I am getting less FPS then the Fenix lmao it’s a big no no for me

my tablet is not clickable.... only power button and brightness :(

Is the engine sound actually realistic? Sound a bit like "tin can" to me. Noticed this the other day with the quick Inibuild test as well

Great but performance killer!!

I don't understand why simmers and KZfaqrs / streamers aren't complaining about the horrible takeoff and landing physics of ini320.. Takeoff with flex takes up the entire runway to accelerate.. Landings are extremely floaty with flaps 4 and idle thrust.. Sounds are horrible compared to fenix and fbw a320.. Only thing I liked was exterior and interior modeling.. Love the weathered effects.. Flight model is terrible and I have to park it in hangar until they release an update.. Since it's freeware I'm not expecting any quick updates..😢

A great plane but the performance as almost all Inibuilds products is not good especially Multiplayer turn ON is unflyable

ms / asobo did not do this aircraft themselves they bought it from INI. so in fact its payware too, however free for the end customer. As this aircraft does not has any additional NEO feature besides the different engines its only a different variant of the A320. no SLS / GLS no FLS, no OANS. no navigraph charts which is a bummer. will continue with fenix i guess.

Hello Emanuel. My name is Dan Fruck. I would like to address my concerns regarding the pmdg 737 for Microsoft flight simulator on Xbox. What the team should really be focusing on in regards to improving the 737, is accessibility for people like me, that fly the 737 and are completely blind. This issue was found on all 4 variants of the 737. If you can get back to me regarding my concerns about the 737, that would be fantastic.

The plane itself is ok nothing special, but I really really dislike the EFB of Inibuilds.

am i the only one who have the atc glitched when i use this plane?

It’s trash. Stick with FBW A20N. This turd froze on me on approach into Boston tonight

if you're a serious simmer, then it's as good as a default+ aircraft. Nothing more.

this plane SUCKS !!!

Sound is terrible and so is the plane to fly,fps loss,bad sound + +

it's Shit as you have to Spend almost £90 if you Don't Have the Premium Edition
