Dear iniBuilds Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
First, I would like to express my appreciation for your efforts in developing the A350 aircraft in such a short period. It is evident that a lot of work went into bringing this aircraft to life. However, I would like to share some concerns and observations I have encountered during my experience, hoping they will be taken into consideration for future updates.
1. System Depth:
The aircraft’s systems feel quite simplified and fall short of study-level expectations. It currently offers a basic point A to point B experience, which can become repetitive and less engaging after a few flights. I believe enhancing the depth of the systems would greatly improve the overall experience.
2. Animations and Visuals:
• The wing flex appears unnatural and lacks fluidity, giving the impression that the wings are restrained. Additionally, there is no noticeable wing flex or engine shake during taxi.
• The wipers are not animated, and the engine fans stop abruptly instead of gradually winding down. The engine spool-up and spool-down animations also seem off.
3. Flight Dynamics:
• The aircraft’s control behavior feels excessively sensitive and unrealistic, particularly during approach, making it quite frustrating.
• It tends to taxi at idle power even when fully loaded and climbs unusually fast, more like a helicopter than a commercial jet. A review of the flight model could enhance realism significantly.
4. Bugs and Stability:
• I have encountered frequent CTDs (crashes to desktop), system freezes, and issues such as engines shutting down unexpectedly.
• After shutting down the APU, the generators sometimes fail, causing the entire electrical system to shut down.
• The in-flight navigation features also seem problematic. The en-route charts rarely work, and the flight route display is often missing.
5. Lighting Issues:
• The lights in MSFS2020 are overly bright, particularly the beacon light.
• Navigation and strobe lights should be visible from passenger views, and landing lights should cast some illumination on the engines.
6. System Depth – MCDU and Tablet:
• It would be great to access METAR information directly through the MCDU or tablet, which currently seems unavailable.
7. Sound Quality:
• The sound design feels quite underwhelming, especially for flaps and slats, which are noticeably loud and fade in and out abruptly.
• The engine sounds are inconsistent, and there is no reverse thrust sound. Additionally, the cabin announcements are not configurable based on liveries.
8. Visual Accuracy:
• Navigation lights, strobe lights, and beacon lights appear misplaced or invisible from certain views.
• Slats also do not seem to deploy correctly.
I was genuinely excited about this release and did not hesitate to purchase it based on your advertisements. However, given the current state of the product, I regret my decision. I kindly request that you consider addressing these issues in future updates or, alternatively, provide a refund option.
I look forward to your response asap , cause i sent emails about a330 with no response and hope to see improvements soon.
Thank you very much for your attention and support.
