Horns Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I'm sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, I did look but I couldn't see anything relevant. The Hornet FAQ says this: Q: Will the Hornet release with a manual? A: The Hornet will release with a Hornet Early Access Guide that will instruct you on how to fly and employ the aircraft. Once it is ready, we plan to release it early. As new features and functions are added during the Early Access phase, the guide will be updated to reflect this. Upon release of the final product, the full manual will be released. Since we're less than a week away and the guide was expected to release early I thought I'd ask when we will get it. This isn't a setup so I can whine about timing or semantics, if it's been delayed that's fine, I'm just curious.

NeilWillis Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 The emphasis there was they planned to release it early. Everything is subject to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
