Find aircraft background, systems descriptions and manuals for the aircraft you are researching. Each note keeps its source and version context close by.
Simulator manuals describe the developer’s implementation. Aircraft background is research-based; pilot accounts describe an individual’s experience. Coverage here is limited to the selected notes and linked resources, not the full contents of every manual.

FADEC, cruise-speed control and three spoiler roles
Aerobask pairs Laminar's GFC700 with custom FADEC and current-speed-control logic in the Phenom 300. The spoilers perform distinct jobs as roll aids, ground spoilers and speed brakes. The published systems also include pressurisation, oxygen and standby instrumentation, as described in the developer documentation.

Embraer Phenom 300
Embraer developed the Phenom 300 after identifying demand for a larger aircraft than the Phenom 100. It received a new airframe, more powerful engines, winglets and spoilers. It is certificated for single-pilot operation.
Aerobask's X-Plane aircraft combines a G1000-based cockpit with custom engine and system features. The developer documents its FADEC, cruise-speed control and the different jobs performed by the spoilers.

Check the represented cockpit before comparing generations
The developer lists a GFC700-equipped G1000 implementation. Its published feature list does not establish the later AX autothrottle or Autoland features described in the real-aircraft accounts. The source also identifies configurable circuit-breaker reliability, emergency oxygen and simulated engine-start behaviour.

Epic E1000 G1000 · Aerobask · X-Plane 12
A G1000 cockpit with turboprop-specific systems
The E1000 uses Laminar's GFC700 and G1000 as a base, with custom PT6 engine displays and an EIS500 standby instrument. Aerobask also documents de-icing systems and circuit breakers. These additions form Aerobask's E1000-specific cockpit.

Epic E1000
Epic developed the E1000 from its earlier kit-aircraft work into a certificated production aircraft. The low-wing composite airframe combines a compact cabin with a substantial nose-mounted turboprop. Later GX developments brought further equipment changes.
Aerobask's X-Plane version pairs the aircraft with a G1000-based flight deck and developer-specific engine indications and systems. The photograph depicts an E1000 GX. The add-on documentation identifies its simulated equipment.
