/images/notams/notams20/heav0702.jpgSo Why PBR?PBR (Physical-Based-Rendering) workflow when used in fight simcreates such a difference in everything including small details. Havea look at this in-game screen shot of part of the instrument panel ofthe Sabreliner. You'll see we have rendered the dimensional quality ofthe gauge faces and needles, etc. The numbers are recessed and the dialpaint has depth and texture. When you put all this together with the larger items, theexperience in the cockpit becomes far more realistic andImmersive. You'll find this type of material and texturing in all ourproducts from now on including the Ctrl/Ezy short cockpits. About Ctrl/EzyCtrl/Ezy has been designed to suit a particular type of simflyer. There is a vast amount of people who fly mostly in exteriorview, taking screenshots of the model and all that expensive scenerythey have bought. All these people want and need is a basic panel withthe basic information on, a set of switches to turn on and off all thebasic systems and start the engine. Also, they rely heavily onkeyboard input so that they can stay in the exterior view. Ctrl/Ezy isNOT for those that like systems, following the flight proceduresexactly, spending a lot of time in the cockpit when flying. We havethe regular AH line for that. We understand it is a bit confusing butas more Ctrl/Ezy products are released, we hope that people will beginto understand the concept and just decide whether it is for them ornot. We ALWAYS ensure that people know EXACTLY what they are buyingbefore pushing the button so PLEASE READ the descriptions on Ctrl/Ezyproducts before hitting the buy now button. That way there will be nosurprises. By the way, the other major benefit of Ctrl/Ezy is that youget the same standard of modeling and PBR texturing you get in ourstandard line, at a much lower cost. That can't be bad can it? Source

/images/notams/notams20/heav0625/tomcat-1.jpgAircraft developer Aeroplane Heaven have shown off some previews oftheir P3D only F14 Tomcat: Look what the (tom) cat dragged in... Inching its way down theline for Ctrl/Ezy. We may even put in a rear cockpit wall...frontpanel only. Full PBR inside and out. /images/notams/notams20/heav0625/tomcat-2.jpgSorry FSX fans, this one is for P3D v4.5 and v5 ONLY. There issimply just too much detail in the exterior model to make it work forFSX. A cut down is just too much work. Source

/images/notams/notams20/heav0316/heav0316.jpgCntrl/E pilots, please read... As we move inexorably toward a new and exciting phase in flightsimulation, we, at Aeroplane Heaven, have been thinking hard about howwe can continue to have a presence for our brand on "older" platformslike FSX. More importantly, how we can continue to supply and supportour loyal and valued customer base, especially in FSX. We have understood for some time now that there is a sizeable coreof flight simulation enthusiasts who feel that they have no need forcomplex add-ons requiring extensive learning curves just to goflying. Also, an awful lot of people no longer have the budget to payfor this complexity with the ever-escalating prices being asked forsuch productions. So, how can we continue to deliver high-quality productions forthis sector of the market alongside our continuing schedule of productdevelopment and release? Well, today, we are very excited to announce a totally new conceptin flight simulation: /images/notams/notams20/heav0316/cntrlezy-1.jpgCtrl/Ezy. For the fun of flyingCtrl/Ezy (Control Easy) has been designed to deliver the very sametype of high fidelity, high quality product you will find in ourregular releases but with some major differences. And because theproduction timelines for these models are much shorter, we will beable to make more, faster. The exterior models are produced with exactly the same levels ofauthentic detail and finish you will find in our "front-line"products. /images/notams/notams20/heav0316/cntrlezy-2.jpgEach model will have a beautifully rendered virtual cockpit (in PBRfor P3DV4.5) but created with a significant difference. The cockpits of Ctrl/Ezy models will be driven entirely by stockkeystrokes without the need for special coding. Cockpits will not needmultiple clickable objects – instead, letting your programmed sticksand quadrant hardware do the heavy lifting! Think of the old days of FS when 2D panels were the order of theday. Transpose that concept into 3D and you will have a basicunderstanding of what a Ctrl/Ezy cockpit is all about. So, now you can enjoy your favourite aeroplane subject to the full,explore the subtle detailing and beautiful finishes of the model andexperience the simple joy of jumping into the cockpit and just goingflying. No complicated start procedures, no lengthy learning curvesand best of all, school's out -- no hefty manuals to study! Flight dynamics, sounds and effects will be the same as you find inour regular releases – all authored with the utmost authenticity. Ctrl/Ezy will be produced for FSX and P3D and P3D models will havefull PBR materials and textures inside and out. All Ctrl/Ezy products will have just one single price: $19.95. It doesn’t matter if it's a four-engined airliner or asingle-engined light aircraft or fighter. The price stays thesame. /images/notams/notams20/heav0316/cntrlezy-3.jpgFSX will cost the same as P3D. In order to keep things simple, we will have a dedicated ControlEasy website where you will be able to purchase all our Ctrl/Ezyproducts and check for details of upcoming productions, upgrades,etc. The first aircraft in the Ctrl/Ezy lineup is the Argentinian FMAIA58 PUCARA. A twin turbo-prop fighter/bomber. Made famous for itsrole in the Falklands Conflict of the early 80’s, many are stillflying today. The design is very "fighter-jet" with a twin-seatcockpit and a varied load-out. Available for FSX or P3D, it is due for release very soon. The P3Dversion (for P3DV4.5) will have full PBR materials and textures andboth have incredibly high levels of detail and finish. We very much hope people will enjoy the concept of Ctrl/Ezy and seein it a way to continue to extend their hobby the way they likeit. As developers we are excited to have an opportunity to bringdiversity back and keep FSX in the Flight Simulation picture. Ctrl/Ezy. For the fun of flying. Source
