I recently brought the piper package and got the three planes. Absolutely love this video and your very clear explanations. Excellent. Please do more of this kind of thing!! Maybe a navigation example using the nav radios?? Excellent work sir!
Thanks you for this, very clear. There are so many planes in the Sim that in the end I decided to settle on just one and really get to know it, so this is perfect for me.
Excellent video. Just installed this aircraft as my first addon and this answered quite a few questions I had when trying to figure out the basics of it.
Wow! I was looking for a piper arrow to fly in MSFS because I missed flying the real one back in the day. How surprised was I when I realized you are flying the exact plane C-GQYI ! Now I really must get this addon. Any way to change the interior color? I don't really like that red. plus the real one was blue inside as far as I can remember.
That is amazing coincidence! The red colour is default. You would need to look for a mod on flightsim.to website, not sure if anyone has done this yet. Regards
Good video, but I need to point out that you flew your pattern a bit too far and high. Real worl traffic pattern is as follows: take off straight out till 700 agl or is directed by atc. 700 agl turn crosswind (assuming uncontrolled field). Level off on crosswind then turn down wind at 1,000 agl. Generally you want to be within 1/2 mile of the runway on downwind. A god visual reference for me in a pa28 is to have the wingtip just covering the Runway on downwind. Throttle and trim for 90 knots on downwind. Abeam the numbers throttle back to 1700 rpm in a pa28a (fixed gear fixed pitch) or in pa28r (the arrow) gear down, the drag from the gear should make the plane want to descend but hold altitude till airspeed bleeds off till abou 80 knots (below white arc) the add your first notch of flaps. Maintain 80 knots and 500 fpm rate of decent until 200ft below pattern altitude or 45 degrees from the numbers. Turn base then add second notch of flaps and pitch and trim fro 75. Turn final then 3 seconds after turning final add last notch of flaps, pitch trim and throttle for 65knots and glide scope. The real pa28 has a fair amount of wing loading so you’ll need to hold the power in through the flair the cut power once leveled out in the flair otherwise the plane will “pancake” on to the runway. Hope this helps!
nice video Mark. any major difference with this version of the Arrow ,besides the price,from the one offered in Marketplace in-game????(which is much cheaper)
The Carenado option should be a reasonable choice. the Just Flight model has a few more options, not sure on the flight model, Carenado does tend to be a little generic in its modeling. Regards
Is there a way to get altitude hold on this model? I know the Piper IIIB doesn't have it, but it would be nice in the simulator. That way I can walk away for a few minutes and not have to worry about trimming the airplane.
@@SimHangerFS There's a manual? I didn't know that. How do I access that? Anyway, I did find another youtube video that explained where the hidden button for altitude hold is. Seems to work pretty well. Sure with I had that on my real airplane!
Thanks for the revew. Want to my that bird in MSFS, but it looks a bit different in the MSFS marketplace. The proppeller in the review is 3-blade, in-game 2-blade. The interrior and the yoke in the review is realistic and worn out (not just as you poited out - clean and dirty, but really different), in the marketplace screenshot these are all new. Is it the same model there?
The on is the marketplace is Caranado's version , a different creator, this is the Just Flight version of the Piper, in my opinion the JF version is superior, you have to buy the JF one from their websight
@@MrEvryn Thx, I've already figured it out and have been flying on JustFlight's version for a couple of monthes. I am totlly in love with this plane and stopped flying anything else (I use PA28 Arrow 3, arrrow 3 turbo and arrow 4 turbo. I like non turbo much more). This plane ideeed fells real, I know all the procedures by heart and really enjoy it. Wanna buy Honeyconb yoke to feel it better.
The aircraft physics are a surprise to me, having flown a PA28 IRL. It is remarkably accurate . The aircraft has a reputation as forgiving and easy to handle, popular still today with flight schools. It’s reaction to airspeed on take off and landing has been well modelled.
I installed this 2 days ago and the plane like to turn to the left on its own. Please help. I've already tried reinstalling the game and still nothing.
The aircraft will naturally want to bank to the left due to the rotation/torque from the prop. This happens in a real aircraft. There are a number of things you can do to counter this. Check your aileron trim and adjust this to maintain straight flight. Regards
@@IrishMcGillan hi, sorry didn’t realise...not sure what the problem could be. The only thing that comes to mind is check the calibration of your controller in windows. Regards
@@IrishMcGillan The issue you describe was a thing for the longest time during Alpha-early release.. Sometimes the updates Asobo will put out screw things up, however, like OP mentioned, try messing with the sensitivity settings under the controls menu to see if that fixes the problem as well.
@@NULINUS I believe there is a new issue now. The SIM will take terrain and it will extend upward Toward the sky. I've messed with all the settings and the plane will roll completely to the left even though I'm turning the yoke to the right. This SIM has had nothing but issues since day one. This should have never been released until they were really 100% sure everything was good to go. It's very frustrating. I have flown other planes in the SIM and they do not do this deep roll dive to the left.
I fly at lydd IRL and planning on moving up to the arrow iii from archer ii. Looks like I’ll be downloading this to help :0) Ps, run up is always at holding point Charlie regardless of run way.
I run through the different phases of flight in a quick circuit to cover off some of the more important procedures for flying the PA28R

A very nice video. A rarity nowadays. Clear, concise yet everything is explained very well. Thank you!
I just bought this plane for MSFS. Thanks to your video I got it started!!
An enjoyable tutorial thank you. All very clear.
Very nice the Arrow was my favorite after my instrument rating
Thanks you for this, very clear. There are so many planes in the Sim that in the end I decided to settle on just one and really get to know it, so this is perfect for me.

Clear, concise and all around great video! Thank you, it gave me a headstart with the airplane.
Right , just the video I needed since I plan to purchase this at the end of march 2022
Another great video by SimHanger!
Thanks mate great and clear tutorial
Great video per usual for you. Do you know if Just Flight will bring this over to us lowly Xbox simmers? Here's to hoping
Always fantastic, mate... always
Always enjoy your videos :)
Nice one Mark, just the job!
Really nice Video!
Thanks for this. Curious, is vfr transponder 2000 in the UK? It's 1200 in the US.
for such a well behaved aeroplane what are your settings in MFS if you please and Thank you.
I dont know why but since update 13 my Garmin wont light up. There are the sign illuminations but nothing in the middle just black

Mark, am I right? The Just Flight Arrow is NOT in the Xbox marketplace? I seen the Carenado but I want the JUST FLIGHT model.....sobbing....

Hi, thanks for the info, good to know. I deliberately extended the downwind leg etc for the purposes of the tutorial. Regards

Is there no separate avionics switch in the Arrow?

Yes you can. There is a hold alt click spot built in. Read the manual.

Just flight model is now in the market place!!!
Gracias desde Bogotá, Sr Ud que opina de este Avion PIPER del Flight Simulator 2020 ..muy amable.
Muy bueno 👍
@@SimHangerFS Gracias.
How do I get it to follow a flight plan which I have created in the sim?
Use the autopilot and nav function.
Good video but the plane seems boring physics-wise. The airspeed comes on at 1ktn airspeed? Not A2A quality by a long shot eh?

Does the Arrow III has a carb heat like II ?
Hi, no not exactly, but it has Alt Air....which carries out much the same function.
@@SimHangerFS Thank u !
I fly at lydd IRL and planning on moving up to the arrow iii from archer ii. Looks like I’ll be downloading this to help :0) Ps, run up is always at holding point Charlie regardless of run way.
For anybody who has both packages, would you recommend the Just Flight Piper Arrow III or the JF Turbo Arrow III/IV?
Just my personal opinion…piper arrow iii
@@SimHangerFS I believe that's what I will go with. Thank you!
