Payware vs. Free E-Jets

 

Our Freeware E-Jets are a simplified version of the real aircraft, relying mostly on the default X-Plane systems. You will have a lot of fun, however they are far from the real E-Jets.

With our payware E-Jets, you'll experience the authentic E-Jets automated systems, complete with the Authentic FMS, VNAV or FMS Speed that have made them favorites among real-world pilots.

 
 

Interactive Comparison

Explore these galleries to compare our Free E-Jets with the payware E-Jets Family models.

 
 
 
 

Easier than Boeing or Airbus

Real pilots love flying the E-Jets because of their advanced automation and ease of control. The true-to-life systems in our E-Jets reduce your workload and they will instantly make you feel like a seasoned pilot.

 
 

Automatically Guided Takeoff

Automated takeoff sequence transitions through multiple Autothrottle and Flight Director modes and auto-captures LNAV & VNAV.

FMS Manages all Autothrottle Speeds

FMS Speed automates speed management from takeoff to landing. All you need to do is control the flaps, just like in real life!

Authentic FMS Guides Precise LNAV & VNAV

The Authentic FMS is the brain of the E-Jets, intricately guiding multiple autopilot modes with accuracy and automation.

Descent Starts Automatically

VNAV precisely calculates the ideal Top of Descent, ensuring all altitude restrictions are met, and then initiates the descent automatically .

ILS Autotune Ensures Successful Landing

ILS Autotune loads the correct ILS frequency, and captures LOC & GS automatically, making every ILS approach effortless.

 
 
 

Feature List

Explore all features by clicking on the sections below. You can also watch our Cockpit Features Introduction video or download the User Manuals to see a detailed and comprehensive description of all features and systems.

Systems & Autopilot New

  • Realistic Automated Systems: Modeled after the real E-Jets, with input from actual pilots.

  • Precise Autopilot: Includes precise LNAV & authentic VNAV that follows all altitude restrictions and starts the descent automatically.

  • Guided Takeoff: Automatic, correct takeoff guidance for smooth departures.

  • New in v1.1 FMS Speed Control: Autothrottle manages speeds automatically.

  • New in v1.1 ILS Autotune: Effortless landings with automatic ILS frequency tuning.

  • New in v2.0 RNAV Glidepath: Accurate vertical navigation for RNAV approaches.

  • Steep Approach System: When activated, it automatically deploys speedbrakes, enabling precise landings on short, steep-approach runways like London City Airport’s 5.5° glide slope.

  • Things that are not yet implemented: HOLDS, procedural turns, all waypoints are treated as fly-past, not fly-over, independent PFD and MFD.

FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The Flight Managements Systems (FMS) is the brain of the E-Jets that ties the avionics and autopilot together.

AUTHENTIC FMS

  • Functions and feels very much like the FMS on the real plane.

  • The Authentic FMS emulates Load 27

  • Includes all pages required for full flight planning. The list of these pages was specified by a real E-Jets instructor working for a US-based operator.

  • Allows the user to fully program flight plans including SIDs, STARs, Airways or setting PERF data.

  • Some pages may not be operational or are reserved for future development.

  • Please refer to our Demo Flight page for in depth instructions on the FMS operation.

Not implemented yet: HOLDs and procedural turns are not yet implemented. We are hoping to add these features in a future update.

Avionics New

  • Exact one-to-one high-resolution rendition of the PFD, MFD and EICAS screens, incorporating the exact colors and fonts.

  • All Flight Annunciators are included with dedicated flashers upon engagement.

  • The MFD includes a custom NAV Map, a Vertical Situation Display, and all the synoptic pages used for systems overview.

  • Correct Startup Sequence with screens and instruments loading based on the loads on electrical buses.

  • Two versions of avionics are available for the PFD (Load 25 & Load 27).

New Next-Gen Pop Up Screens allow you to open the screens on separate monitors


Warning: Please note that the CAS system (a section on the EICAS which displays messages related to the CAUT and MASTER warnings) is not fully implemented in this version.

You will get around 30 most commonly seen messages, however, not all of them will be coupled with the CAUT or MASTER warning, and there are still many less common messages missing.

We need to develop this system from scratch in order to fully implement it and this is a very time consuming task, so in the meantime we have a "lite" version of CAS that displays messages a pilot would normally see on a standard flight.

3D Visuals

  • We worked for over 2000 hours to perfectly replicate the interior and exterior of the aircraft down to the smallest details. You will find details from pins that indicate how worn the brakes are, to the zip-ties holding cables in place under the glareshield.

  • We used colors scans to match the real colors of the cockpit and avionics and 3D scans to verify the dimensions of the interior and exterior of the aircraft.

  • In one of our Not-A-Newsletters, we explain why saying "we are using 4K textures" is completely irrelevant. So we will not say that, even though we are of course using them.

    Instead, we can tell you that we spent months developing procedural processes that allowed us to give you crisp and detailed textures all around you in the cockpit without increasing the load on your system. Good performance was always the cornerstone of the development.

  • There is no point for us to describe something that you can see for free. So simply download the free preview model!

FLIGHT MODEL

  • The flight model was developed by X-Aerodynamics, the industry leader for simulating precise aerodynamics.

  • The flight characteristics and performance was tested and approved by real E-Jet pilots.

  • The flight model was optimized for both X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12.

EFB

Our new custom Electronic Flight Bag (**EFB**) is a tablet that gives you access to:

  • Door control & Ground Services

  • Weight & Balance

  • Takeoff Performance Calculations

  • Landing Performance Calculations

  • Checklists

  • Avitab

Watch the video below to see all the features that are included in our EFB.

Auto-Updater

  • We are utilizing the SkunkCrafts Auto Updater. The Auto Updater makes it very easy to detect and download new updates all directly through X-Plane. This way you don’t ever have to worry about missing an update again!
  • Every time you load the plane, you’ll be notified if a new version is available and if yes, you’ll be able to get the update with just a few clicks directly through X-Plane.

  • You can find simple instructions here

LIGHTING & ANIMATIONS

  • All exterior & interior lights were implemented and fine tuned for both X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12. That includes all cockpit lights, cabin lights, sterile cockpit lights, galley lights, emergency lights and more.

  • Countless animations all around the cockpit and cabin. Naturally we animated all the doors, cockpit seats, jump seat, or windows.

  • We really went the extra mile, so you'll even see that the seatbelts in the cockpit or loose items in the cabin like the trolleys or curtains will be shaking during turbulence.

Sounds

  • The next generation of our custom FMOD package brings complex and true-to-life sounds which elevate the audio experience to a new level of immersion.

  • The custom sound package includes sounds that were recorded on the real jets.

  • All switches, buttons, levers and controls produce unique sounds. Even similar switches do not produce the same sound, as is the case in real life.

  • Extensive work has been done on the engine sounds, which are crucial for an immersive experience.

  • Cabin announcements are included and can be disabled through the settings menu.

Below is a version of the trailer without any music, allowing you to hear what the E-Jets Family sounds like in X-Plane.

Fine-tuned VR

  • All cockpit manipulators have been fine tuned for a smooth VR experience.
  • We've included dedicated pop up panels for easier visual experience when flying
  • To use the EFB, you'll need to use the MoveVR plugin

Plugins

  • We have our Custom Settings menu through which you can configure your preferences, like weight units, if you want wheel covers or not and much more.

  • These settings will be saved in a configuration file and remembered between flights.


Additionally, the jets are comapatible with these popular plugins:

Pilot Testimonials

I would have been very happy if I had this add-on for my real-type rating studies, unfortunately I didn’t at the time.
As a senior captain with more than 10,000 hours of experience in the actual airplane, I find myself comfortable in the cockpit, especially when I fly in VR. The flight deck is precisely modeled, and the view is an accurate representation of reality.

Marko and his team have done an outstanding job of replicating the experience of operating this splendid aircraft. Whether you are a flight simulation enthusiast or a real-world pilot who wants a taste of flying an Embraer from the pilot’s seat, the X-Crafts E-Jets Family is the closest you can get to the real deal.
— Johnatan G.
My name is Jose Perez, E175 Captain/Check Airman for a Regional Airline based in the USA. I have been working with X-Crafts as a Beta tester for this project since April 2022 and I can say that the E-Jets Family will be a game changer for the X-Plane community. Systems, visuals, sounds, authentic MCDU, the way the plane flies, makes me feel I’m in the cockpit flying the actual plane.
— Jose Perez
As a current Embraer E-Jet pilot with over 2500 hours on type, I can confidently say that this simulator is the real deal. With highly accurate models of the aircraft interior, a genuine Flight Management System (FMS) and autopilot features including lateral and vertical navigation guidance, and realistic systems, you’ll feel like you’re actually in the cockpit of this of the real aircraft.

Whether you’re a real pilot or a hobbyist, the X-Crafts E-Jet flight simulator is the perfect way to experience the thrill of flying an Embraer E-Jet without leaving the ground.
