Octopus G is best known for the DCS: I-16 and recently released DCS: La-7. Another project that the developer has been working on from time to time is a Yakovlev UT-1. This trainer looks to be taking shape for Microsoft Flight Simulator. Here’s the latest images and news.

Basic trainer but not an easy plane to master

An advanced trainer designed in the 1930s, the UT-1 doesn’t have a lot of features. That includes not having any brakes or a fuel gauge for that matter. So, it should be a bit of an interesting aircraft to fly.

The developer has been updating the community over the last few weeks with new images for the aircraft and the latest screenshots show off the leather dashboard textures as well as the detailing on the engine and the overall aircraft shape.

The developer confirms that the project will be available for both MSFS 2020 and 2024. Look for more updates on the Octopus G Facebook page!
