Experience what it would be like to fly a Cubcrafters amphibian XCUB from Lost Lake Oregon, around Mt. Hood, and return for a landing on Lost Lake. THE BIGGER YOUR SCREEN THE BETTER THE EXPERIENCE! This video created with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Sky/Weather "painted/created" by myself using MSFS's weather creation tools. No one has yet created MSFS 3D "scenery" for the Lost Lake lodge, so it is only visible on Google satellite maps from the air. If you don't want to experience the entire flight, you can fast forward using the arrow keys on your keyboard. https://lostlakeresort.org DISCLAIMER This video contains flying that in a real airplane would be prohibited. My videos are for entertainment purposes only. They are “virtual experiences†that a pilot might imagine doing. I do not condone, support or encourage any form of illegal flying of full scale aircraft.

I've been trying to do a ils landing with the xcub for a while, but it hasn't been working. I haven't been getting the line on the display telling me which Side of the runway I'm on. I set the nav2 frequency to the ils frequency, turn nav2 on and set the gps/vor switch to vor. But then I noticed on the display,it was saying vor1. So I set the nav1 frequency to the ils frequency and selected nav1, and then i got the line, so the ils landing worked! But i thought planes always use nav2 for the ils frequency?

/images/notams/notams19/xcub0530.jpgHello, aviators! We are excited to share with you the official trailer for theupcoming XCub which showcases one of the most requested features fromour community. Enjoy the video and make sure to check out the FAQ below for moredetailed information. Q&AWill the glass displays be available to everyone? The XCub will be released as a free aircraft with a small selectionof liveries and a steam gauge panel which includes 2 small glassdisplays. Both panels (steam gauges + full glass panels) and allliveries will be available with a Pro subscription. How realistic are the displays? Not all functionalities are implemented at the moment but thedisplays will improve over time. Our teaser video is a greatindication of what we have now. We will do our best to matchreal-world instruments look and feel but some complex functionalitiesmight take a long time to get right. Will you add glass displays to other aircraft? Yes. We do plan on adding instruments to other aircraft in ourcurrent fleet. It will be done gradually, and for older aircraft, afull rework will be required to accommodate this. Will the A350 have glass displays too? You bet. However, since the A350 is basically all glass, not allfunctionality will be implemented right away. Our goal is always tosimulate real-world conditions, however, as you know this takes timeand processing requirements. We will improve over time. When is the release? Soon! As we put the finishing touches on this aircraft and squash afew bugs, we will preview XCub at our booth at FlightSimExpo inOrlando next week. The release will come sometime after that, however,we don't have a firm date set. Source
