Just Flight, in partnership with Thranda Design, are proud to present their second add-on for X-Plane 12 – the PA-28R Arrow III.
The PA-28R Arrow III is a four seater, piston-engine aircraft equipped with a retractable tricycle landing gear and constant-speed propeller – an ideal aircraft for touring and instrument training.
The aircraft is flown all around the world and this add-on reflects that global popularity. In addition to our UK research aircraft, G-BGKU, the package features seven paint schemes from the UK, USA, Germany, The Netherlands, Poland and New Zealand.
The PA-28R Arrow III for X-Plane 12 features brand new PBR materials with real-time environment reflections for superb quality and realism, 8K textures for the highest possible clarity and a brand-new tablet EFB featuring a plethora of features such as aircraft configuration states, interactive checklists and customisation options. Numerous animations include a multi-animation passenger door that, when open, responds to G-forces and air resistance.
Model
• Accurately modelled PA-28R-201 Arrow III, built using real-world aircraft plans
• Numerous animations including multi-animation passenger door that, when open, responds to G-forces and air resistance, baggage door, cockpit window, sun visors and oil cover
• Ground equipment including chocks and tie-downs
• 8K interior and exterior textures are used to produce the highest possible texture clarity
• PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials with real-time environment reflections for superb quality and realism, completely reworked for X-Plane 12
• Detailed normal mapping for down-to-the-rivet precision of aircraft features
• X-Plane 12 native rain effects
Cockpit
• A truly 3D virtual cockpit right down to accurately modelled seat belts and screw heads - every instrument is constructed fully in 3D with smooth animations
• Cockpit textures feature wear and tear based on reference photos taken in the real aircraft to produce an authentic environment
• Tablet EFB with a selection of apps providing useful tools and customisation options:
- Aircraft Options - open/close the aircraft doors, enable/disable glass reflection, enable/disable ground equipment and more
- Weight & Balance - adjust the aircraft’s weight and balance using the built-in configuration app and centre of gravity table
- Instrument Options - choose to have the cockpit avionics visible in the 3D cockpit or have them pop out on 2D panels
- Static Liveries - change aircraft liveries without exiting to the main menu
- Dynamic Liveries - customise the aircraft’s paint scheme without leaving the aircraft. Features Modern and Classic liveries whose colours can be fully customised in the aircraft, without the need for any complicated paint kits.
- Engine Configuration - view the condition of the engines and enable enhanced simulation options such as spark plug fouling and vapour lock
- Thranda DynaFeel - adjust the force required to move each of the control surfaces
- Checklists - interactable checklists for every stage of flight
- AviTab support
- And much more!
• Fully functional and comprehensive IFR-capable avionics fit including:
- KMA 20 audio selector unit
- Fully featured X-Plane-native GNS530 (supports procedures out of the box, and supports Navigraph and Aerosoft custom nav databases)
- KX 175B COM 2 / NAV 2 radio
- KN 62 DME unit which can display information from NAV 1 or NAV 2
- Autocontrol IIIB autopilot unit with navigation, heading and roll hold (hidden autopilot altitude hold system included for convenience)
- KT 76A transponder unit
- KR 85 ADF unit
- Support for RealityXP GTN750 (sold separately, Windows only)
• Interactive logbook panel for logging your flight details (X-Plane native)
• Flight computer panel with useful information such as fuel burn, endurance, speed and wind speed/direction
• Yoke-mounted flight timer/clock
• Independently operated left and right (standby) altimeter
• GoodWay compatible
• Ability to change barometric units from InHg to MB in altimeter adjustment
• Option to activate flashlight from within pop-up window, to aid in those pitch-black cold and dark starts at night
• Pop-up autopilot window
• Option to remove window and instrument reflection effects
• Animated toe brakes
• Functional throttle quadrant tensioning system
• Radio knob animations routed through plugin logic, for optimum movement fidelity and sound synchronisation
Aircraft systems
• Custom-coded fuel system, including the option of automatic fuel tank switching for use on those long distance cross-country flights (this option is remembered for future flights)
• Custom-coded electrical system with functional circuit breakers. Circuit breaker logic is linked to X-Plane's internal failure logic, so if the plane is set to fail a certain electrical component after a certain number of hours, the circuit breaker for that element will pop out.
• Realistic landing gear system with intricate retraction animation, slow/fast tyre rotation animation (blurry when rotating fast), precise shock absorber animation with multiple linkages animated accurately, wheel chocks and tie-downs
• Functioning alternate air and static source controls
• Fully implemented back-up landing gear system
• Dedicated interactive engine pop-up window displaying values such as fuel tank weights and imbalance, fuel pressure, oil pressure, oil temperature, battery charge (with quick charge option), and information about spark plug fouling and vapour lock condition
• Simulated vapour lock condition, with warning pop-up and suggested actions
• Simulated spark plug fouling condition, with indication of percentage of fouling
• Lighting system includes separate lighting control for gauges (via rheostat) and realistic implementation of navigation light / radio light rheostat
• Functional electric trim control on yoke (requires electric trim button to be pushed)
• Functional ELT which is automatically triggered above 4.6G
• Simulated fan and vent system with realistic blower sounds (linked to circuit breaker logic and electrical system for realism)
• Custom external light logic with custom strobe light pattern and custom light halos for added realism
Liveries
The aircraft is supplied in the following seven 8K paint schemes which can be swapped on the fly via the EFB:
• D-ENOX (Germany)
