Test flying the DA62 in Microsoft Flight Simulator

A quick test flight in the DA62 in Microsoft Flight Simulator - doing a touch and go at Booker airfield, performing some stall and spin tests, and then landing. Great little aeroplane.
I suspect many people don't use it because of the visibility issues in the cockpit if you don't have VR (there is a huge hoop that restricts visibility in 2D).

Just moved onto this Aircraft today, having a blast with it.
I mainly fly 152 or 172 having full knowledge of startup now of both. Occasionally I like to fly the EA-7 Edgley Optica also.
I don't like to fly too many Aircraft without knowledge of T/O and Landing speeds, start and shutoff procedures. With exceptions to the F/A18 (for now)
Had recently learned the Cabri G2 and thought to move up a class in GA aircraft and go to the DA62.
This has helped familiarise myself thank you.

I am finding this is quite the best a/c for IFR practice and learning. The pillars obscuring view are not an issue then. Great vid as always. Thank you.

I really enjoy flying that plane, super intuitive and just fun. Thank you for the vid!

You're welcome :)

i may be biased but that ac is the must fun to fly imo… biased why? because my parents both work for diamond aircraft. my dad‘s avionics and my mom does the wings.
but nonetheless i think that the g1000 is really easy to understand. it just took me 2-3 DnC‘s with my dad’s explanation to learn how to start the ac and do all the autopilot stuff etc

SAsimFlight did two great videos on DA62

[@jonbeckett]

I'll look them up when I get a chance.

"Here's how to cold start the DA62 but I'm not going to follow the checklist..." 🙄🙄🙄
