HD textures, exceptionally detailed modelling and PBR materials(P3D v4.4 or later) make Just Flight's DR400 a real visual treat andcockpit functionality is comprehensive and accurate, with IFR-capableavionics, interactive checklists, fuel and RPM gauge needle "wobble"and dimmable instrument lighting among the features.
The DR400 comes in ten paint schemes and boasts custom-coded fueland electrical systems, optional failures, authentic sounds, accurateflight dynamics and provision for Flight1 GTN and GNS integration.
This all-new DR400 has been modelled by our in-house developmentteam to the same exceptional quality as all the recent Just Flightaircraft, but we’re making it available to you at this permanentspecial low price by way of a seasonal thank you for all your supportand your custom over the last few years. We hope you’ll enjoy flyingit!
The X-Plane11 edition is available at the same low price!
Following on from our PA-28 series, C152 and Duchess Model 76aircraft, this highly detailed simulation of the Robin DR400-180Regent has been developed by Just Flight's in-house team followingcomprehensive, hands-on research with a real-life DR400, G-BEUP, basedat Goodwood Aerodrome with SportAir.
The DR400 is a wooden monoplane, first flown in 1972 and still inproduction in France as the latest DR401. This four-seat,piston-engine aircraft is equipped with fixed tricycle landing gear, a180 HP four-cylinder engine and a large forward-sliding canopy.
The aircraft features a distinctive cranked wing design and slidingcanopy, giving it a unique appearance among GA aircraft and excellentcruise performance. It is fitted with an auxiliary fuel tank for atotal capacity of 240 litres, providing great range.
The DR400's excellent visibility, payload capabilities and 130-knotcruise speed make it an ideal aircraft for touring and flighttraining.
Moving into the cockpit, the aircraft features a comprehensivesuite of IFR-capable avionics including a GMA 340 audio selector, GNS430 GPS unit, KY 97 COM 2 radio, KN 64 DME, GTX 330 transponder, KR 85ADF and S-TEC 55 autopilot.
The model takes advantage of the latest technologies such as PBR toproduce stunning visual fidelity. The DR400 is flown all around theworld and our add-on reflects that global popularity. The packagefeatures liveries from the UK, USA, Europe and Australia.
