SimWorks Studios Quest Kodiak | Sneak Preview! | Full Flight | Microsoft Flight Simulator

In this video we go island hopping in the SimWorks Studios Quest Kodiak within Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS).

We will take the Kodiak on a multi-sector cargo run from Grand Case airport, on the island of St Martin, over to Saba, on to St Barthélemy and then returning back to St Martin. Hopefully the flight should be good fun and a nice little test of the SimWorks Studios Quest Kodiak.

Please note this aircraft is still in a pre-release state. As such it may well not represent the quality of the final product. This video is a first look at the product; I will aim to have a full review out once the aircraft has been released.

This will probably be my most instant purchase since the Turbo Arrow!

Great video as always, sir! Beautiful scenery (actually I have to fly this route!), charming aircraft. And your flying skills amazes me every time. Full respect! 👨🏻‍✈️

Thanks for the nice preview. I am not someone who likes glass cockpits much because of the small font used. But i am honestly looking very forward to this plane. And very happy that is seems to be as good as hoped, perhaps even better. These people are doing a quality job here.

Edit: Forgot to mention that specially the visible passengers and cargo are a HUGE bonus. Something i really hope more devs will start to use.

Finally found the time to watch this in its entirety. You never disappoint. Great video, great showcase of what will also be an insta-buy for me.

You made the Saint Barts landing look like a Sunday drive in the countryside. Nice!

I have been following the progress of the Kodiac for some time, this video only cements the exemplary work, and love from the dev team. I don't usually buy into G1000, screen aircraft, preferring old school cockpit gauges (older the better) such as JF's Pipers, or the recent Bonanza c35. BUT, am looking forward to having some fun with this little beauty. A ton of stuff was not featured with this video such as carrying passengers instead of cargo (the copilot is still buggy afaik) all show up with weight settings, but yes, thank you for this great video.

[volkerjansen]

MSFS is simply perfect for this kind of plane. Sure buy from me as well. And as was said before, the G1000 NXi is really coming along nicely, great step up from the Asobo default. Thank you for the beautiful video as always :)

@33:20 hard to make out clearly but it looked like the AP was set to capture 5100 not 5000 hence the slight climb. When you turn on AP it captures the current altitude and thus will ignore the set altitude (5000 in this case) unless you go into VS mode.

Excellent intro to the soon to be released Kodiak. I have been waiting a while for this airplane and your video indicates SimWorks has not disappointed. I am getting in line with all of those who commented to the effect of “instant purchase” Should be a big seller in no small part thanks to the 217k subscribers to Missionary Bush Pilot.

Never enjoyed the Caravan on MSFS, but I am very tempted by this plane. The sounds on this are excellent. The sound when going into Beta on landing gave me goosebumps everytime.

[Fryns]

As usual an exemplary rewiev. So authoritative and detailed. Model for rewieving, and best MSFS rewiev channel.
Will be buying in 4 hours...yeah!

[RayKit]

Congrats on 10k bud! Feels good right!

[paulphibbs]

Try the WT NXI mod. You’ll LOVE it. Very rich in features. Thanks for the feedback on this as I will get it now.

[supertyfon]

One of the most realistic planes I've seen so far.

[joshsater]

Just bought this baby so I can fly around the Tibetan Plateau. I'm in eastern China right now, taking a Diamond DA40NX on a world tour. Looking forward to learning something.

[antonioiozzi]

I am not a G1000 lover but this Kodiac is really an amazing interessant aircraft with wich you can fly everywhere. Thumbs up! 👍

[anbrod]

Nice video! will have to get me a copy when it comes out!

[goatash]

Omg I would love to try your track IR profile you are using in that video, it moves so nice around the cockpit

[clearedtoland]

Spectacular landings! Especially the 2nd

[Vograx]

Looks like a great plane. Been watching this one closely, but seems to keep staying just out of reach for release date. Initially hoped it would be out close after SU6 as they said on Facebook it was 99% done.

Hopefully when it releases now it will be with minimal/no bugs and issues though. Really hoping release drops before Christmas.

Going to be flying this one a lot in PNG as well as around British Columbia, the Alps and Idaho for starters.

Let the adventures begin!
