FlightFX separately documents the native MSFS 2024 version and an upgrade for prior purchasers.
Native2024 P180 product and upgrade
The P.180 combines forward aerodynamic surfaces, rear-mounted pusher propellers and a pressurised executive cabin. FlightFX's manual describes cable-and-bellcrank aileron controls and elevator runs using rods and cables.
Pitch trim moves the horizontal stabiliser, while roll trim uses a servo tab on the right aileron. The original MSFS 2020 and native MSFS 2024 packages have separate product descriptions.
Piaggio P.180 Avanti II
The Piel CP301 Emeraude has piston propulsion, fixed tailwheel landing gear and manually operated flaps. Restauravia's cockpit diagram identifies a central flap lever and an elevator-trim handle. The conversion is supplied for MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024.

The manual lists no wing flaps. Its carburettor heat uses the simulator's Spoiler axis, while the EFB and silent autopilot are convenience features. The published cruise range is 70–75 mph, with an approximately 35 mph stall figure.

Product description and feature list
The Air Camper is a 1930s-era homebuilt with a parasol wing supported by external struts above the open cockpit. Wood and fabric form most of its construction. Emerald's rendition uses a four-cylinder, 65 hp Continental A65.
The MSFS 2024 package includes Classic and bushwheel configurations, an EFB and silent autopilot assistance. The EFB and autopilot are simulator convenience features.

Pilatus PC-12 NGX · Thranda · X-Plane 12
Thranda’s X-Plane 12 package describes the PT6A-67B-powered PC-12/47, with a configurable instrument panel and support for separately supplied RealityXP navigators. Instruments can be moved between panel positions and saved as presets. This is a different represented configuration from the NGX in MSFS 2024.

Pilatus PC-12 NGX · Thranda · X-Plane 12
The PC-12’s EFB includes individual-seat loading, centre-of-gravity plotting, paint customisation and engine-mode options. Thranda also documents an electrical model with bus-tie breakers, standby and non-essential buses, external power and failures, plus shaker/pusher logic. These are published simulator features, with their controls described in the package documentation.

Pilatus PC-12 NGX · SimCoders · X-Plane 11
SimCoders requires the Carenado X-Plane 11 PC-12 for this REP. Its engine additions include custom temperature evolution, throttle response, propeller-governor behaviour and hot starts. A maintenance interface, walkaround and saved battery and engine condition add continuity between flights. This listing does not establish compatibility with Thranda’s newer PC-12.
