/images/notams/notams21/vsky0708/vskylabs-1.jpgThe VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS Project was updated earlier this weekto v1.07. The update included interaction addition, which is abuilt-in binding capability of the braking lever to a Joystickaxis. Quite useful for those who are focusing on Joystick hardwarecontrols and would want to fly the aircraft with the *real* feel. Braking in the A22 is made by a single lever which activates bothbrakes symmetrically (similar to the braking system in the FlightDesign CTLS aircraft). Now, with the use of the built-in axisassignment, it can be done not only inVR/on-screen/switch/button... but also with the use of a dedicatedJoystick axis. More information regarding this update can be found in theproject's main pages (update log / POH), also in the VSKYLABS supportforums. The VSKYLABS A22 is expecting a major upcoming update, which willinclude the addition of a new variant: A Floats equipped Foxbat!Update will take place in the near future. /images/notams/notams21/vsky0708/vskylabs-2.jpgThe VSKYLABS ICON-A5 Project was updated as well. This time it wasa minor update: added payload weight interaction with the passenger,also the passenger model was refined for better visualization. Moreinformation can be found in the project's main pages (update log /POH), and in the VSKYLABS support forums.

/images/notams/notams21/vsky0419.jpgThe VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS Project for X-Plane by LaminarResearch (coming REALLY soon!). Following users request, a simple, LSAgrade autopilot system was installed in the VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS,as an OPTIONAL avionics equipment. The autopilot is capable ofmaintaining aircraft attitude and aircraft altitude, reducing pilotworkload during longer flights. It can be installed/removed duringflight on the go. Release window is scheduled for the last week of April 2021...staytuned! Source

/images/notams/notams21/vsky0407/aeroprakt-1.jpgThe VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS Project for X-Plane by LaminarResearch (coming soon!). Release window was set to the last week ofApril 2021, if all goes as expected! Here are a couple of screen shots showing some recent renderings ofthe evolving project. A compete, easy-to-use paint-kit is beingprepared and will be included in the project! /images/notams/notams21/vsky0407/aeroprakt-2.jpgThe VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS Project is designed and developedwith the real-A22 manual/POH being one of the core referencematerials. This allows the virtual pilot to operate the VSKYLABS A22following the familiar procedures and checklists. The project introduces a highly-defined Aeroprakt A22 aircraftsimulation with the focus on flight dynamics, aircraft performance andhandling qualities. The project is also designed to allow a completeflying experience in VR (Virtual Reality). It includes a comprehensiveFMOD sound pack as well. Stay tuned, as the last week of April is just around the corner! Source

/images/notams/notams21/vsky0401.jpgThe VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS Project for X-Plane by LaminarResearch (coming soon!) News Flash! Parachute Recovery System was installed last week and is workingas expected. Initial VR flight testings had started. The VSKYLABSAeroprakt A22 is being developed and tuned to demonstrate a highlyaccurate Aeroprakt A22 flight simulation in terms of systems,operations, aircraft performance and handling characteristics. Like its real-world big-brother, the aircraft has excellenthandling qualities, high visibility and it is very predictable andresponsive. It is a very capable aircraft. Release date has not been set yet, however, the VSKYLABS AeropraktA22 Project is currently the leading *under-development* project atthe 'labs. In the attached screen shot - a quick sample of the evolvingcockpit environment. Source

/images/notams/notams21/vsky0208/vsky0208.jpgVSKYLABS development NEWS FLASH! The VSKYLABS Rutan Model-158 ("Pond Racer") Project for X-Plane byLaminar Research: As noted in previous posts, the VSKYLABS RutanModel-158 Project is introducing an enhanced yet plausible version ofthe Model-158 which is incorporating a highly defined and robust PT6-ATurbojet propulsion simulation and other enhancements/modificationsthat are aimed to extend the aircraft usability in addition the basic"Stick and Throttle" Racing aircraft usage. Enhancements are including the PT6-A propulsion implementation,pressurized cockpit, on-board Oxygen system, navigation aids,auto-pilot, Anti-icing and De-icing systems and more. /images/notams/notams21/vsky0208/pond-racer.jpgIn order to stay truthful to the original design, all enhancementsare being built around the SOLID CORE of the original Model-158design, and with true-to-life, plausible integrations to theaircraft. A lot of thinking and effort is being made to include the"Rutan design approach spirit" as well. Based on the original Model-158 general cockpit layout, theinterior is designed with a "Sporty" 90's look-and-feel! The VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS Project will soon be showcased deeperand closer, as development is reaching its goals for initial releaseversion v1.0. These two projects are under development for quite a long time now(long months, and more than a year). This is quite normal, althoughthe wait can get a bit "painful" to some...This is the nature of suchprojects development process that involves a delicate multi-aspectdesign, engineering and development effort. If all goes as expected,BOTH project are SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE during February and March2021(!!!) This is quite close and approaching fast! So Stay tuned!

/images/notams/notams21/vsky0127.jpgThe VSKYLABS Aeroprakt A22-LS Project for X-Plane by LaminarResearch (Work-In-Progress): Various cockpit configurations are beingevaluated for project version v1.0. Here is a first look into theevolving cockpit environment and panel, showing one of the suggestedconfigurations. The Aeroprakt A22 comes with a variety of optionalequipment. Within the A22 optional equipment is the dual-control yokeconfiguration vs a central 'Y'-shaped stick. Each configurationderives a few cockpit modifications such as throttle and brakes leverspositions (on stick/middle panel/combined with throttle lever,etc.). The various configurations are being evaluated and for now,the dual-control yoke configuration along with the 'enhanced' centrallever-panel seems as the leading configuration for project versionv1.0. Panel configuration and on-board avionics are still dynamic. One ofthe suggested configurations is seen in the attached screen shot.
