| Beast Horus - The next generation Microjet
Me, and a group of skilled dedicated people are developing the safest and most awesome Microjet in the world! We thought ourselves: "What would James Bond choose to fly?" The "Beast Horus" is the answer, featuring state of the art aerodynamics, carbon monocoque technology as used in formula one racing and all safety features you can think of.
With a MTOW of 380kg and aerobatic capabilities, this artpiece of carbon will be the next cool gadget for anybody wanting to own his/her own jet with no compromises at only the cost of an average four seater. Economic cruising at 230kt or landing on grass strip with a stall speed of only 52kt? Getting the 500$ burger or pulling up to 9G (13.5 ultimate)? Just name it, the Horus is your aircraft of choice!
I you want to use the full potential of the Garmin G3X PFD screen, you will need to download the Working Title G3X and add it to your community folder as well.

When is the new update expected, addressing all the issues that have been aptly described by others?

Is the download of the workingtitle G3x still necessary? On their webpage it is stated that the advancements in the MS based Garmin has made their own G3x obsolete in many cases.

I see much potential for this plane, both in the real world and in MSFS. Fun to fly, and great views from the cockpit when you're just sightseeing. I love the look and the shape as well.
But as a aircraft download, it seems rather incomplete. Are you still polishing it up? I hope you are, I want to fly this thing more.
Some observations on incomplete bits: The canopy scratches are a bit too strong, as another user mentioned. The Black & Yellow livery directory contains files from the Pink & Blue livery, so you can't ever see that version in-game. Camera positions need work, even the default eye position seems just a tiny bit too far back and up. There should be a click to hide the stick so you can see the instruments behind it. It seems like the autopilot has got some odd behavior when I try to activate it (VS button not working?). The Weights & Balances page indicates that the CG is too far aft, and you are overloaded if you fill the fuel tanks. And it would be nice to have a complete startup/shutdown procedure, just to complete the experience.

Great plane. Many thanks!

Works perfectly, looks great
and is a great upgrade for the MSFS.
It is compatible with SU11,
thanks for that

Hello, this is a very good model and I enjoy flying it however is there any chance you can reduce or remove the circular canopy scratches. They are really in your face with little sun glare and very distracting especially using VR.
Thanks.

Hello Scheny, first of all thank you very much for your tremendous work.
I only have one question since I saw a video and all the instruments and keys are labeled in a language other than English, which is common in practically all aircraft. That would be a hardship for many of us. I understand that it must be in your native language (although in that case it would be logical that everything that appears written outside the aircraft would also be in it). Before downloading it, I wanted to check if this version is still in the same language that I saw the video (I don't know if it's German or similar). Thank you very much and sorry for the inconvenience.

Is the previous version at https://flightsim.to/file/10355/beast-one-microjet now to be considered ended and this is the new one taking over from that?
Scheny 6 month(s) ago
Yes. It was completely built again from scratch, so there was the decision to upload it as a new one.
Chaosdruid 6 month(s) ago
Thanks for that - The previous one was really great inside, and looked like it will be a great little aircraft!

thanks for this great little jet, just two wishes for now : de-ice function (I'm flying in Alaska these days) and airbrakes. It's hard to speed down without using flaps... what is the maximal speed allowed for them ?
Scheny 6 month(s) ago
There is already an airbrake (split rudder), although it will be changed to belly airbrake on request of the testpilot. As for de-ice, the original will never get one for multiple reasons.

Only being able to set NAV1 and NAV2 frequencies would be a very important goal.
Scheny 6 month(s) ago
The aircraft is only using GPS but no NAV, because it cannot be certified for IFR. In addition, it would need NAV antennas, which would be quite large, compared to the rest of the airframe. An integrated solution (like the COM antenna inside the vertical tail) is not possible, as the aircraft is 100% carbon except for the forward part of the vertical tail.

Not sure if this is because the last msfs update, the plane goes to the right at take off, what i am doing wrong ?
vjojts 7 month(s) ago
Thats to do with MSFS a few of the planes do this of theres aswell
Scheny 6 month(s) ago
This has nothing to do with the aircraft. I recommend checking the rudder axis of your joystick.

So a fairly decent model in all fairness. One that I do wish to add to my rotation of airframes in FSEconomy once I work out the GPH fuel burn at 230kts!
However, this airframe is VERY twitchy. Aesthetically pleasing but twitchy.
The AP panel seems to be mapped incorrectly as tooltips don't correspond with what the button itself says. Not sure how much fixing that would require but workable with the tooltips to assist.
Overall, a great freeware model. Just needs some fine tuning to the flight model and the AP panel working out. Definitely worth a download.
