In the context of the BayTower Studio (BTS) Vans RV-7/7A for FSX, choosing between the two depends primarily on your landing preference and ground handling needs. Fly Away Simulation RV-7 (Taildragger) Better for purists who enjoy the challenge of traditional conventional gear

Where FSX Falls Short

• Cost: A Lancair kit is 2–3x the price of an RV-7.
• Complexity: Fuel systems, retractable gear (most FSX planes), and composite repair.
• Forgiveness: The RV-7 is famously gentle. FSX warbird-like planes are unforgiving on landing.

Powerful Avionics: It includes deep integration for tools like the RXP GNS530W. fsx bts vans rv 7 7a better

The "better" choice depends entirely on your preferred flying style and virtual mission profile: RV-7 (Taildragger) RV-7A (Tricycle Gear) Landing Gear Conventional (Tailwheel) Tricycle (Nosewheel) Ground Handling Requires more skill; prone to ground loops if not careful. Docile and stable; easier for beginners. Visibility Slightly obstructed forward view on the ground. Excellent forward visibility during taxi and takeoff. Rough Strips Better suited for grass or uneven dirt strips. Cost: A Lancair kit is 2–3x the price of an RV-7

“I sold my FSX Lancair for an RV-7A. Sure, I lost 40 mph cruise. But I gained a plane I can land in a 1,500-foot grass strip without sweating. The RV is better for my aging knees.”
