Quickie Q-200
This is the Q-200 high performance sport aircraft by Quickie Aircraft Corporation. This sleek two seater was a homebuilt 'kit plane' that you assembled. This version was the high performance 100HP model powered by the Continental O-200. The futuristic design featured a Canard 'Twin Wing'layout with elevators on the front wing and ailerons on the wing. Some interesting features are the Flexor reverse spoiler system, the twin center fuel tanks that used a fuel transfer system similar to Concord... This is the Q-200 high performance sport aircraft by Quickie Aircraft Corporation. This sleek two seater was a homebuilt 'kit plane' that you assembled. This version was the high performance 100HP model powered by the Continental O-200. The futuristic design featured a Canard 'Twin Wing'layout with elevators on the front wing and ailerons on the wing. Some interesting features are the Flexor reverse spoiler system, the twin center fuel tanks that used a fuel transfer system similar to Concord. The main landing gear was mounted in aerodynamic skirts in the wingtips for the front wing. Incredibly, the Q only weighed 550 LBS dry, 1100 Max at take-off, and featured a very small wingspan of 16 feet total. Mind you, you had two sets of wings.
This package features 13 different exterior high detail paint schemes that range from base line kit style, to supercar color selections, to air racer variants with wild paint schemes and stripes. Interiors vary from nearly each aircrat with panels in gray, light blue, striped paint and color paint, carbonfiber, and also wood. Some features include 3D instrumentation, the Asobo GNS530 GPS system, a simple base line autopilot to help on long flights, an elaborate warning light system, Flexor controls, fuel readouts for both tanks and a fuel transfer system that requires constant attention on long flights. Other features include OshKosh parking mode (parking mode) that deploys two small camping tents at the tail, and a plexi selector that changes the 'outside only' plexiglass bubble between tints of 'dark, medium, and nearly clear' plexi choices. The plexi also features the now famous Asobo rain effects with streaming rain, and also fine detail plexi scratches.
The aircraft will max out at 180 knots, full throttle. This is a HOT little plane with very moderate power to weight ratio. It is recommended that you do not use full throttle on take-offs. Just like other high performance sport planes, such as the Pitts biplane and Extra 330, you must be careful on your rollout on take-offs, lest you spin her out accidentally.
I have created a nice manual for it that you can download and read before purchase to make sure you would be happy with her. This cool manual features a lot of screenshots and notes with arrows pointing to the various systems and lights and knobs and bits, explaining how everything works, the hidden features you do not always find, and even the basics of how to fly it.
If you love futuristic things, X-Wings, sport aircraft, high performance planes, homebuilts, radical aircraft, things that are NOT NORMAL, this baby is definitely for you!
NOTE: You 'MUST' know where your MSFS Community folder is. You 'MUST' manually direct this plane into that folder to install it. This installer cannot 'see' MSFS on computers.
UPDATE: Build 1. 1 is the present 'Build' version available.
Update carried out; Transponder was not turning on with cold starts. This is now repaired. This makes the Q200 for MSFS Build 1. 1.

This is the sleek, high performance French 4 seater 'Trinidad' by Socata Aerospace in France.

Even today, her instrument panel design is more advanced in appearence to other manufacturers.
PERFORMANCE AND ALTITUDE AND INSTRUMENTATION UPDATES!
* Manifold Pressure and Fuel Flow instrument recalibrated
* Engine tunes carried out for high realism in various altitudes
* Recalibration of several engine related instruments that were slightly off
* Tuning to AI Autopilot system
* Addition of tuneable ASI Speed Strip disc in ASI to calculate TAS speeds at high altitude
* Clickable hidden TAS digital mini readout, top left of instrument cluster
* Tuning of Effects for new version of MSFS Effects management
* Manifold Press and TACH moved to middle for easier visibility

* You can now fly the Trinidad by the numbers. Remember, the limits are for 4 passengers at 170 lbs each, plus 60 lbs in the rear boot, and fuel topped off to max limit, not max fuel. Make sure you stay within the * weight limits.
* There was an update by Working Titles that broke autopilots in the Navigation section. I am hoping they fix that soon. I just flew her and she followed course for a while, but let go.
* You can now practice belly landings in the Trinidad, as like the Bellanca Super Viking.
* When fully laden, figure a slow climbout for sure, especially when you get close to 25K feet. Bring a jacket. and Oxygen…
Hope you enjoy the updates. Much was done to the engine. Ron worked his tail off on it to get her to go by the numbers.
