Updated X-Plane Flight Simulator Files for Zenith Aircraft

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!

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.

    Is there an update to the aircraft models for X-Plane 11?  Version 11.02 complains bitterly that 'perhaps they are an older version'.  I think what needs to happen is the aircraft file needs to be opened in version 10, and then saved down as version 10.  Then open in version 11 and saved in version 11.

    Is there any Zenith aircraft that will work in X-Plane 11?  Looking for 801-SD or 750-SD

    For whatever is worth, I was able to convert the Zenair CH 650 S-LSA version 1.1 that was created for X-Plane 9 into X-Plane 11 by converting to X-Plane 10 first, and then 11. It is not without glitches, but it is flyable. I am a total newb in X-Plane, but I was able to figure it out and it flies so it is doable. Hopefully someone more experienced can tackle it and make it better. I would love to see it VR compatible, but I don't think that is going to happen.
