Aircraft Variants

This MU2 product package includes 4 different *.acf variations of the MU2 at minimum, with two panel configurations and two propeller configurations. The two panel configurations are an older style OEM Radio Stack variant with terrestrial based navigation equipment and weather radar display and a GNS Radio Stack variant with Laminar's emulation of the Garmin 430/530 GPS equipment and TOGA sim's implementation of the GTX330 transponder and GMA340 audio panel.

NOTE: The weather radar on the OEM variant is currently INOP (inoperative). This is a purposeful pause on our part in consideration of X-Plane's transition from Version 11 to 12. X-Plane 12 will feature a new weather engine and it is not yet clear what weather radar features or customizations are available to developers. As such, we have elected to stand by temporarily on weather radar development pending more information regarding X-Plane 12. Once we begin the port to X-Plane 12 and have details regarding X-Plane's weather related changes, we will refine the weather radar simulation and provide that in a future update.

The two propeller configurations are the original 4-blade configuration and also a 5-blade MT® propeller configuration. Performance differences between the two are almost negligible, with the 5-bladed MT blade being slightly quieter than the 4-blade variant, though difficult to distinguish over the howl of the turbine. But it does look cool!

RealSimGear G600 Variant (RSG G600 add-on sold separately)

For those who also own the RealSimGear G500/600 EFIS product through X-Aviation.com, then 2 additional *.acf versions will be available to you, i.e. 4 and 5-bladed versions with the RealSimGear® Glass Panel shown below.

Each aircraft variant is its own *.acf file and is to be selected and loaded through X-Plane's default aircraft selection GUI (user interface). The variants can be distinguished through their *.acf filenames. All variants have the common prefix, MU2B60_, but are distinguished through their filename suffixes. Filename suffixes uses letter codes to distinguish the type of panel and also the number of prop blades. You will see the code _4B or _5B in the aircraft names to denote a 4-bladed or 5-bladed configuration and the codes _OEM or _GNS or _GLASS to denote an OEM, Garmin GPS or Garmin G600 configuration respectively. The totality of variant names available are then:

Variant Name Description
MU2B60_4B_OEM.acf 4 Bladed Prop with OEM radio nav equipment
MU2B60_4B_GNS.acf 4 Bladed Prop with Garmin GPS nav equipment
MU2B60_4B_GLASS.acf 4 Bladed Prop with G600 EFIS and Garmin GPS nav equipment
MU2B60_5B_OEM.acf 5 Bladed Prop with OEM radio nav equipment
MU2B60_4B_GNS.acf 5 Bladed Prop with Garmin GPS nav equipment
MU2B60_5B_GLASS.acf 5 Bladed Prop with G600 EFIS and Garmin GPS nav equipment

Additional liveries from TOGAsim, as they come available, will be available through X-Pilot.com's general aviation livery downloads forum. We provide the section below to showcase liveries that come available for download through X-Pilot.com. We would respectfully request that if you make additional liveries, that you please share them with the community via your favorite forum.

Paint kit

A paint kit will be provided soon at X-Pilot.com for download. You can keep an eye on the download The paint kit consists of four Photoshop-formatted files and a Subtance Painter file, for those adventurous souls who wish to create additional paint schemes / liveries. The paint kit can be found in the Paint_Kit folder within the MU2 aircraft folder. More information about the paint kit is available in the Supplement Section, Livery Paint Kit documents.
