The Super Decathlon: A True Aerobatic Legend

The Super Decathlon: A True Aerobatic Legend

The Super Decathlon is renowned for its robust design and exceptional aerobatic capabilities, making it a go-to aircraft for aerobatics training in real life. With its powerful Lycoming AEIO-360 engine and lightweight frame, it is built to withstand high-G maneuvers while providing superior control in all flight attitudes. The Super Decathlon for MSFS 2020 faithfully replicates these characteristics, offering a virtual flight experience that mirrors the real thing as closely as possible.

Key Features

  • Aerobatic Excellence: Capable of performing advanced maneuvers such as loops, rolls, hammerheads, spins, and more, the Super Decathlon is ideal for honing your aerobatic skills. The plane is built to handle +6 Gs and -5 Gs, ensuring that it can withstand the most demanding routines.
  • Authentic Flight Model: Developed with the help of real-world Decathlon owners and pilots, every aspect of the flight model has been carefully crafted to match real-world performance. This includes the unique handling dynamics of a taildragger, particularly during takeoff and landing, where precision is key.
  • Realism at its Core: Tested in fully immersive VR environments with motion simulators, this aircraft delivers unmatched realism in both visual and handling characteristics. Whether you're flying in standard mode or VR, the Super Decathlon provides an incredibly lifelike experience.
  • Detailed 3D Modeling & Texturing: Every nut, bolt, and surface has been modeled with painstaking detail. The virtual cockpit offers both Analog and Glass Panel configurations, each featuring advanced avionics and customizable setups to suit your flying style.
  • Liveries and Customization: Included with the Super Decathlon are several real-world liveries, including those of actual aircraft owners, such as Jimmy's Xtreme Decathlon and Charlie Morris' airshow Super Decathlon. These liveries not only add a personal touch but also reflect the authenticity behind the development of this plane.
  • Smoke System for Airshows: Engage the smoke system and take to the skies for your own virtual airshow performances. The smoke trails add an extra dimension of realism, making it perfect for showcasing your aerobatic maneuvers and multi-player friendly.
  • Ground Features: Fully interactive elements such as a modeled engine visible during oil checks, functioning door and window animations, and a detailed yoke/pedal system give you complete control over the aircraft's every feature.
