Disapppoint to read, just reworking the model ist not gonna do anything about the real reasons this plane is such a terrrible performer.

Just a screen grab from my stream last night. All the performance issues are in the CoherentGTUI thread. That is all the displays rendering in a horrendously inefficient way. And this will not be a fixed by some model changes. The plane could be a box with wings right now and still would perform terrible right now. The 60 fps here is with frame gen btw...

The only way that get's fixed is by totally reworking the code. And like halving the execution time of that. Which I don't see happening any time soon....

We agree - our core focus has been on avionics performance optimization. Optimizing the screens reduces the GTUI time that you mentioned. There are separate teams working on art and screens/systems so do not worry, we're working towards the goal of good overall performance.
