Separate native products for X-PLANE 12 and X-PLANE 11, for your selection.
MINIMUM HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS FOR X-PLANE 12
Disk Space: 25GB
CPU: Intel Core i3, i5, i7, or i9 CPU with 4 or more cores, or AMD Ryzen 3, 5, 7 or 9.
(Those with other CPUs should try the demo before purchasing.)

Video Card: a Vulkan 1.3-capable video card from NVIDIA or AMD with at least 2 GB VRAM
Note: Intel GPUs are not supported by X-Plane 12.
The VSKYLABS development of the Dynali H3 project for X-Plane flight simulator was approved by the 'Dynali Helicopter Company'. However, it is an independent VSKYLABS project which is not related, affiliated and/or endorsed with/by 'Dynali Helicopter Company'.
Project Introduction
This project is part of the VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot' series, designed specifically for use with X-Plane cutting edge Flight Model.
The Dynali H3 helicopter is a Belgian ultralight two-seat helicopter with a side-by-side seating configuration. It is authorized in several European countries under the ultralight helicopter category, and being flown around the world as a light-utility helicopter, and as a personal ultralight vehicle. It is supplied as a ready-to-fly helicopter, or as a kit.
The project is setting up a highly defined Dynali H3 simulation along with full VR compatibility, within the default features of X-Plane, stretching it to its limits.

Project Main Features
- VSKYLABS 'Test-Pilot' Project.
- Highly defined model of the Dynali H3 EasyFlyer helicopter.
- Two variants included: Classic EasyFlyer + the newer Dynali 'Sport' variant.
- Built around the powerful, native X-Plane flight model.
- Fully functional VR (Virtual Reality) compatibility.
- 3D Pilot and passenger visualization for increased VR immersion.
- Built-in Avitab compatibility (Avitab plugin not included).
- Multi-Layer FMOD sound pack.
- Autoupdater based on the SkunkCrafts autoupdater (XP12 only) - all updates are being pushed smoothly without the need to re-download the entire base package (base package will be updated every once in a while to minimize the gap).
- Easy-to-use paint-kit included.
- The project is under constant development.
- Highly responsive VSKYLABS support forums.

JetManHuss - VSKYLABS (c) 2023 All Rights Reserved
XP12 - v3.1a (10th May 2023):
- Flight dynamics - tuneup for tail-rotor responsiveness (was too responsive for desktop twisting joystick devices in the yaw axis).
XP12 - v3.1 (3rd April 2023):
- New 3-d fuel gauge was added (between the seats, float-leveler mechanism).
XP12 - v3.0 (30th March 2023):
- Flight dynamics complete overhaul to fall in line with the latest X-Plane 12 related helicopter simulation physics.
- Textures/PBR tune-ups (in and out) to fall in-line with the latest X-Plane 12 lighting engine updates.
- Sounds - new FMOD 2.0 sound pack.
- Systems - new dual-system altimeter.
- Animations:
- New tail/stab vibration animation.
- New skids-flex animation.
- Improved rotor-disc animation.
XP12 - v2.2 (4th December 2022):
- Interior lighting system reset and retuned to comply with the modified X-Plane 12.00r1+ lighting engine.
XP12 - v2.1 (23th November 2022):
- Updater software replaced - from STMA to SkunkCrafts.
XP12 - v2.0 (Spetember 2022):
- X-Plane 12 - initial version release.
XP11 - v1.1e (25th November 2020):
- Interactivity:
- Added option to show/hide AviTab tablet (click zone / Slider#1 ON/OFF).
XP11 - v1.1c (6th October 2020):
- 3D model bug-fix:
- Engine exhaust pipe visualization was fixed.
XP11 - v1.1a (12th September 2020):
- Engine operation envelope and cooling fans tuneup:
- Automatic cooling fans tuneup for higher effectiveness - to allow prolonged hovering in hot weather (above 25 degrees C).
- Engine analog Oil-temp and CHT gauges *wrong readings* below 100 Degrees C was fixed.
XP11 - v1.1 (8th June 2020):
- Dynali H3 'Sport' variant was added to the project.
- The 'Sport' variant is featuring the latest Dynali H3 design which is incorporating a new tail-design and new carbon-aerodynamic skids, which improves the overall H3 aerodynamic stability and efficiency.
- Paint-Kit is now v1.1 - with the addition of the tail-section.
XP11 - v1.0 (29th April 2020): Initial version release.
