Highlights include a brand-new Osprey model and a big multiplayer change! (See this post for more details.) We also added new aircraft variants set up with more pro-level functionality to take advantage of the broad InterLink DX feature set. Fly them, enjoy them, and study them so you can create your own!
Release Notes
Features
- New vehicle: E-flite V-22 Osprey VTOL
- Multiplayer is now merged with sessions and players from RealFlight 7 and RealFlight 8
- Added 11 new "InterLink DX" aircraft variants configured for separate rates. Aileron, elevator, and rudder rates are each controlled by a separate switch. (Any controller with enough input channels can utilize this; in practice that mostly means the InterLink DX.)
- One of the new "InterLink DX" aircraft variants is also configured for triple rates. Each rate switch (aileron, elevator, & rudder) has low, medium, and high rate values.
- Increased the number of vehicle receiver channels from 12 to 15. This allows all 15 InterLink DX channels to be used simultaneously on a single vehicle.
Improvements/Fixes
- Display names for InterLink DX input channels are more descriptive
- MFC aircraft and airport selection dialog layouts are adjusted to better support content with long names
- Radio profiles where channels are not mapped straight across (input channel 1 is mapped to output channel 1, etc.) work properly in the trainers, with autopilot, and with FlightAxis Link
- Welcome dialog: Fixed an outdated tip
