TWO VARIANTS

Make it Double

1.0
The DA42 Series comes bundles with two major versions - go classic with the original diesel TDI variant or pilot the latest with the modern, more powerful VI, equipped with Austro engines.
• TDI variant with 2x TAE Centurion 2.0 Turbocharged Common-Rail Injected Diesel Engines.

• VI variant with 2 × Austro Engine AE 300 turbocharged common-rail injected 2.0 litre diesel engine with 168 HP & EECU single lever control system
THE VISUAL MODEL

A sight to Behold

2.0
The DA42 Series sets our benchmark of a high fidelity visual model. Recreated through thousands of reference photos and scans from a local DA42, each and every bolt is accounted for during the production of the 3D and texturing. Combined with the power of MSFS’ rendering engine, the plane looks gorgeous at every angle.
High Resolution 3D Model • Bespoke Ice and Rain implementation • Light-baked 4K Textures • Photorealistic reflections, ray-traced shadows & lighting • Realistic dirt, wear & tear • Metallic materials • Realistic GFRP CFRP material properties.

AVIONICS & SYSTEMS

Beauty and Brains

3.0
Crafted for unparalleled immersion, the DA42 Series’ cockpit comes equipped with a suite of custom systems that covers all of the aircraft’s functions across the board - you’d feel right at home the moment you load the aircraft in the simulator.
Oil pressure simulation • oil cooling • glow plug controller • manifold pressure • fuel injection • water cooling • gearbox temperature • ECU test cycle & operation • propellor feathering-windmilling + piston compression physics • and much more +
AUDIO & SOUNDS

Sound of Change

4.0
The DA42 Series delivers a head-filling auditory experience to your ears. With audio sourced from various real world training activities, hear the impressive dynamic sounds of the engine, wind, and ground roll commanding your attention. Listen to the affect of the sounds based on propellor pitch, fuel flow, and speeds from the decisions you make in the cockpit.

FLIGHT MODEL & PHYSICS

A Power Move

5.0
Tried and tested directly by DA42 students and flight instructors, the flight model faithfully replicates the performance of the real aircraft in all stages of flight, including single-engine manoeuvres, and engine performance. You’ll feel like flying a real DA42 straight from the computer.
