The SportStar Max is a two-seat, light-sport aircraft (LSA) manufactured by Evektor-Aerotechnik of the Czech Republic. The manufacturer advertises it as 'offering comfort for business travel and handling ease of a great trainer.' It touts handling qualities, stability, low operational costs, supreme cockpit comfort, excellent flight characteristics, and elegant and sporty styling.

Powered by a 100-horsepower Rotax 912ULS engine with a three-bladed fixed-pitch propeller, the SportStar was designed for towing sailplanes up to 1,544 pounds (700 kilograms) gross weight and banners up to 1,479 square feet (140 square meters). Evektor says the pop-riveted and bonded all-metal frame and its anodized aluminum skin minimize inflight noises, extend service life by minimizing fatigue, and enable better crashworthiness by the eliminating rivet zippering and 'oil canning' in a crash.

SportStar Max's Visual Features

FSD International's SportStar Max appears true in size, dimensions, and shapes. Its liveries are difficult to verify because there are so many real-world liveries of this aircraft. I found some that resembled those offered by FSD. The interior of FSD's SportStar Max seems consistent with the few real-world photos I found on the Internet. I found nothing to question visually about any of the ten models.

SportStar Max Instruments

This instrument panel looks like traditional mechanical panels at first glance, but closer examination reveals significant differences.

The large empty spaces in front of the left seat reveal the lack of mechanical navigation instruments. There is no omni-bearing indicator, no automatic direction finder, and no glide-slope indicator. These instruments are 'simulated' in the Garmin 480 GPS/WAAS device.
The attitude indicator contains a turn/slip coordinator and a digital heading indicator.
A balance indicator shows whether the aircraft is balanced or imbalanced forward/aft. If imbalanced, the indicator shows whether the aircraft is heavy in front or rear.
The GPS is a Garmin 480 GPS/WAAS, which is an advanced version of the default Garmin GPS used in some FSX aircraft. WAAS is an acronym for 'Wide Area Augmentation System.' Pilots rely on it for all flight phases, including precision approaches to any airport in the device's coverage area.
The Garmin GPS and the KA155 radio must be turned on separately. They don't come on automatically when the master avionics switch is turned on.

The only popup window displays the Garmin GPS. Clarity of the instruments is good. It's better with zoom in, of course, but instruments are still easily readable from a normal distance. There is no 2D panel. Some flight simmers like 2D panels, and others don't use them.

Sims 4 custom traits loverslab. Performance specifications are provided in the manuals, the checklists, the reference sheets, and the details section of the aircraft-selection menu.

There's a lot of variation in performance specifications among the documents, however. As examples: The manual says maximum weight is 1,320 pounds while the aircraft-selection menu file says it's 2,550 pounds. The manual says ceiling is 13,000 feet, and the aircraft-selection menu says it's 14,000 feet. The manual says maximum speed is 146 knots, while the aircraft-selection menu says it's 126 knots. It looks as though a configuration file for a different aircraft was used as a template for this aircraft and that not all data were changed accordingly. In response to my question, the developer said: 'Actual MTOW is 1,320 lbs. The correct maximum speed is 146 kts, and 13,000 ft. is the correct service ceiling.'
