In a forum post, Flight Sim Labs has announced that they’ve pushed out an update for their well-known A320-X and A319-X add-ons.
Version 2.0.2.415 brings along some significant changes such as fixes and improvements throughout the product line with the most notable being a complete redesign and overhaul of the Elevator and Aileron Computer (ELAC). Of course, not to mention, this version also brings compatibility with the latest version of Prepar3D v4.5 Hotfix 2.
This version with the new ELAC system implemented was featured in the aircraft featured at the FSLabs stand at Cosford earlier this month. FSLabs reported that their audience considered it a major improvement over previous versions.
To get a hold of this update, you can download the latest installer from the Flight Sim Labs redownload page here.
If you don’t already own the FlightSimLabs A320-X ($139,95 Excl. VAT) or A319-X ($39,95 Excl. VAT), you can grab ahold of them over at the Flight Sim Labs store.
