Earlier this week, Colimata has released version 1.20 of the Concorde, their flagship product. The newest version brings autopilot improvements, tutorial/manual updates, and with the release of X-Plane 11.50 on the horizon, full Vulkan compatibility.
A full list of changes in version 1.20 is as follows:
- Full Vulkan compatibility
- More inertia (the jet feels heavier in pitch and roll)
- New Autopilot functions
- AP MAX CLIMB – for optimum climb performance
- AP MAX CRUISE – keeps the jet at Mach 2.00
- AP IAS HOLD – holds airspeed via pitch angle
- AP GLIDE – follows ILS glideslope
- AP VOR LOC – improved
- AP TURBULENCE mode
- New video tutorial ‘vertical flight profile’
- HSI got an INS mode in addition to the RAD mode
- ASI airspeed and speed limit refinements
- INS bug fixes and improvements
- Decision height light on ADI
- Updated manuals
- Marker lights
- Crew callout improvements
- More small fixes and improvements
At the time of writing, the Colimata Concord can be purchased on the X-plane.org Store for a discounted price of $49.95, compared to the full price of $59.69. It is unclear when the promotion will end.
