We use a variety of community built glider mods that offer much better functionality and advanced features compared to the stock gliders in MSFS.
A high-performance 18 meter flapped glider including a self-launch motor, built-in winch launch, water ballast, and a comprehensive racing instrument panel. It features a real-time nav display, configurable vario with MacCready and Speed-to-Fly, and multifunction instruments that adapt based on flight inputs. Flap settings, ballast, and spoiler-linked braking are accurately modeled, with dynamic flight behavior reflecting ballast state and flap configuration.
The ASK 21 is a popular German two-seater glider, first built in 1979. It is primarily used for beginner instruction and aerobatics training, as well as for transitioning pilots from older wooden gliders like the K 8 to modern single-seat composite gliders. Capable of withstanding g-loads of +6.5 and -4G, it has a maximum speed of 280 km/h. Despite not having the best glide ratio, it is appreciated for its well-balanced handling and safety. The ASK 21 is a well-constructed and robust glider with forgiving flight characteristics.
The DG Flugzeugbau DG-800 series is a family of 15 metre and 18 metre single-seat gliders and motor gliders produced by Glaser-Dirks since 1993 and by DG Flugzeugbau GmbH after 1997.
