The guys over at Just Flight has today released the PA-28-161 Piper Warrior II for X-Plane 11. The PA-28-161 Warrior II is a four-seater, piston-engine aircraft equipped with a fixed tricycle landing gear, 160hp four-cylinder engine, and a fixed-pitch propeller – an ideal aircraft for touring and flight training. Unlike the original Piper PA-28-150 Cherokee, the Warrior II has tapered wings and has a higher gross weight.
The aircraft has been designed using real-world aircraft plans to a really high standard. The aicraft will behave just like the real thing including G-Force and air resistance. The 4K texture set will really showcase how beautiful this aircraft is. For users, Just Flight has made it as easy as possible by including interactive check lists, aircraft config tools and more.
For the full list of features, head over to the Just Flight website where you can also pick up the Piper PA-28-161 Warrior II for £27.99 / €34.95 / $41.99. If you already own Just Flight’s PA-28R Arrow III and/or the PA-28R Turbo Arrow III/IV for X-Plane 11, you should have received an email from us with details of how to get this new Warrior II at a bargain price!
AIRCRAFT FEATURES
Model
- Accurately modelled PA-28-161 Warrior II, built using real-world aircraft plans
- Numerous animations, including multi-animation passenger door that, when open, responds to G-forces and air resistance, baggage door, cockpit window, sun visors and oil cover
- Ground equipment including chocks and tie-downs
- 4096 x 4096 textures are used to produce the highest possible texture clarity
Cockpit
- A truly 3D virtual cockpit right down to accurately modelled seat belts and screw heads – every instrument is constructed fully in 3D with smooth animations
- Cockpit textures feature wear and tear based on reference photos taken in the real aircraft to produce an authentic environment
- Interactive engine start checklist that responds to user inputs and sim variables
- Interactive checklists for every stage of flight
- Aircraft configuration system that will allow you to choose between ‘cold & dark’ or ‘ready for take-off’ (if aircraft is stationary on the ground)
- Fully functional and comprehensive IFR-capable avionics fit
Aircraft systems
- Custom-coded fuel system, including the option of automatic fuel tank switching for use on those long distance cross-country flights (this option is remembered for future flights)
- Custom-coded electrical system with functional circuit breakers, avionics power circuit and emergency bus controls. Circuit breaker logic is linked to X-Plane’s internal failure logic, so if the plane is set to fail a certain electrical component after a certain number of hours, the circuit breaker for that element will pop out.
- Realistic landing gear with slow/fast tyre rotation animation (blurry when rotating fast), precise shock absorber animation and wheel chocks and tie-downsFunctioning carburettor and primer controls
