February 14, 2013 Update:
We've posted updated X-Plane flight simulator files for both the STOL CH 750 and now for the Zenith CH 650-B! The new files take advantage of great new flight simulator technology and are optimized for X-Plane X (version 10.20) which now support 64-bit computing power!
Let us know what you think!
Download the aircraft files:
Here's the original post (from April 2011):
The X-Plane files for the STOL CH 750 are here!
X-Plane is the leader in flight simulation software, using "virtual wind tunnel physics" to realistically simulate the real thing. I haven't had a chance to "test fly" the simulator yet but I hear that they are excellent. Please post your comments and feedback here so that we can continue to develop and fine-tune the files.
Next, we'll plan to "install" new engines in the STOL CH 750 simulator, such as the ULPower and Jabiru engines, so that you can test fly the same STOL CH 750 airframe with the different powerplant choices...
Note: We supply the X-Plane files strictly on an "AS-IS" basis, with NO WARRANTY, express or implied. To be used for recreational purposes only. Obviously, these files are no substitute for proper flight training.

Comment by Christopher Nail on April 11, 2011 at 1:13pm Tried this out. Pretty cool. Is anyone working on a 601/650 set up with the same panel features?
Consequently realized that they make an iphone app that allows you to use your phone as a joystick/throttle/rudder. Its free...Wi-Fly. Check it out.

Is that aircraft TF-UTA, in the background of the second last screenshot, a Heintz-Robin HR 200 ?

Sebastien,
I use x-Plane at work - it's a very good, legitimate level 0 engineering simulation. I recommend it all the time.

The sim looks fantastic...cancel my kit order!
