A321NEO model inaccuracy - any fix coming?

Hi LVFR,

I was just wondering if there is any update in the works to help fix the inaccurate model of the A321N (I can't speak for the other aircraft).

The nose landing gear is way too tall and the engines are missing the gearbox bulge on the side, and also the wings don't flex as they should. Overall it just isn't a very true to life depiction and when the cockpit is ripped from the default A320N (or in the case of 3rd party mods, the FBW cockpit), it therefore means you're largely paying for the model. A bit of a let down.

Regards,

Hi, when we released the A321neo it was using directly the default A320neo cockpit. Now we are using a similar model of the cockpit with our modded systems. We will look into working on improving things later on.

Hi,

I also noticed some issues with the flaps:

the right flap is further out than the left one (if you look from below, there is a gap between the two flap track fairing parts)
also the ailerons are busted.
the right one is squeezed into the wing

while the left one has bigger gap than a Dacia

the rest of the model isn't super high quality either but not everything can be a fenix so I am not too bummed about that.

We are replacing the entire wing with a new modeled and textured one. So this is going to be removed and changed very soon for a much better one.

I just flew the 321 after being in the fenix for a couple weeks and those wings need a huge overhaul lol so glad to see this :P

Hey Ricardo,

any news on this? I can make way with the inaccurate nose etc. (The cockpit nose sits too low and the angle of the windshield is a bit too flat. Compare the porthole window in the 1L or 1R door and the cockpit to real life photos. )
However, this is not as apparent as the gaps in the ailerons and flap "extension". So a quick wing update would be greatly appreciated. Even if its "wings only" ;)

Thanks and BR
Alex
