Version History
The
Maule M-7-235B
is a
genuine XP12 Aircraft
.
The development of the VSKYLABS Maule M-7-235B project for X-Plane flight simulator was approved by Maule Air, Inc. However, it is an independent VSKYLABS project which is not related, affiliated and/or endorsed by/with Maule Air, Inc.
All aircraft data, facts, figures, procedures and any other relevant information in this document refers to the *virtual* vskylabs maule aircraft. it is for informational purposes only and should not be used for real-world flying. for official information, please contact maule aircraft inc. or visit their website:
https://mauleairinc.com/
The Maule M-7 is an easy to fly, 4 or 5 seat Taildragger STOL aircraft. Most models can be fitted with floats, skis or bush tires, and there is also a nose-wheel version. The aircraft is agile and versatile, has a large and easy to access cargo area. The Maule M-7 is a favorite bush-plane, and also favorite among commercial operators and private pilots.
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
Three aircraft included
(land and amphibian, Analog/G1000, Classic gears/35" Bushwheels).
Designed for X-Plane 12
cutting edge flight model environment. Superb flight dynamics with authentic performance and flight handling characteristics.
Built for VR:
development was tailored specifically for VR, and optimized for 2D usage.
Engineered and designed as a genuine, default X-Plane 12 aircraft
. The VSKYLABS projects are practically show-casing X-Plane, as they are stretching X-Plane default features, systems and flight model to its limits without any dependencies on complementary plugins or software...delivering a very robust simulation model, having maximum compatibility with the ever evolving X-Plane flight simulator.
Perfect fit for beginner and expert pilots.
Equipped with Alpha Systems AOA 'Eagle' indicator replica.
Built-in Avitab Plugin Compatibility
(AviTab plugin is not included).
Autoupdater based on the SkunkCrafts autoupdater
- all updates are being pushed smoothly without the need to re-download the entire base package (base package will be updated every once in a while to minimize the gap).
Highly responsive VSKYLABS support forums:
VSKYLABS offers continuous professional support, from all aircraft related aspects (operating and flying) to X-Plane technical support.
The project is under constant maintenance and development.
The project includes the VSKYLABS 'Cockpit-Builders Heaven' assignment layer.
It allows assigning all aircraft switches, knobs, levers, and interactions in a designated, uncluttered section in the X-Plane 12 assignment screen.

X-Plained.com
- v1.15 '
At $32.95 USD for three variants of an aircraft that is already very good and promises much more, the VSKYLABS is worthy of serious consideration by any GA pilot and particularly by pilots who want to work on their taildragger skills.'

v1.5a (23 January 2025) - Major Update Release:
Flight model:
Engine idle RPM tuneups.
Empty aircraft CG refinements to all variants.
Aircraft handling refinement in pitch/roll/yaw axes to better replicate the Maule M-7 responsiveness in all phases of flight.
Landing gears - Differential-braking feature when using only rudder equipment (no to brakes hardware) was refined to allow more docile 'automated' brakes with rudder input.
Systems
:
All CB's are now wired up into the electrical system and fully functional (two panels - front and RH).
S-TEC 55x autopilot was implemented in the analog variant.
Dual GNS-430 bundle was implemented in the analog variant.
Night lighting - instrument panel - improved.
Heading bug was re-positioned to the correct instrument in the panel.
Graphics
:
G1000 module was replaced with enhanced 3-d model.
Various PBR touches for external textures and liveries.
Interaction
:
VSKYLABS '
Cockpit-Builders-Heaven
' was implemented, allowing to assign all aircraft switches, knobs, levers and interactions in a designated, cluttered section in the X-Plane 12 assignment screen.
Fuel selector manipulator was replaced with improved 'rotatable' knob functionality. This improves interaction in 2-d and especially in VR, where you simply 'rotate' the fuel tank selector to the desired position.
Bug fixes
:
Gears indicator display (float-plane) fix (lights illuminates at night).
Version v1.3
(March 22nd 2023)
Implementation of Alpha Systems AOA 'Eagle' AOA indicator replica.
Directional Gyro setting knob was added (analog cockpit).
GNS430, G1000 display lighting adjusted.
Manual update with AOA info.
Version v1.2
(December 4 2022 2022)
Interior lighting system reset and retuned to comply with the modified X-Plane 12.00r1+ lighting engine.
Version v1.15
(November 7th 2022)
Additional G1000 variant was added to the project.
Analog cockpit received IFR instrumentation (RMI/CDI).
Switchable landing gears were added (classic / 35" Bushwheels), can be switched during flight, incorporated in the flight dynamics (affecting ground handling and aircraft performance).
Thorough flight model update to refine STOL performance and ground handling of the Maule M-7-235B aircraft. Includes landing gears modifications (physics and 3-d representation).
Sunroof is now modeled into the aircraft.
FMOD (sounds) update - new engine sounds.
Version v1.1
(October 24h 2022)
Flight dynamics update - fixed too aggressive stall characteristics, too close to stall warning initiation.
Engine idle rpm tuneup.
Bushwheels tires drag coefficient tuneup.
Pitch trim manipulation is too sensitive in VR - re-tuned.
Animation bug for GNS volume knobs - fixed.
Fuel transfer switches now work via sliders (assignments) to allow easy binding to hardware on/off switches instead of messing with datarefs.
Windows reflections (internal) tuneup.
Manual updated with weight&balance setup instructions and updates assignment tables for the new sliders.
Version v1.0
(September 6th 2022)
Early access version v1.0 (beta)
