As some reading this may be aware, ED suddenly and unexpectedly removed me as a DCS developer. That however has nothing to do with what I'm about to talk about next...



At the beginning of September, AvioDev team lead Juan Oscar wrote an e-mail to all team members that by the end of September 2015 the EB and CC versions of the C-101 were to be finished (yes, you read correctly - finished, totally, including final versions of systems code and flight model, as well as all documentation, missions, and training missions).



I told them multiple times and clearly, that it would take a lot more than 4 weeks to finish everything (I estimated 9 to 12 months of work to maintain the current standard and complete everything). They were having none of that, and duly fired me from the team.



Today, I read this:

A quick summary of events:



* July 2015 - I stop working temporarily whilst AvioDev get things together to pay me royalties owed for Q1 and Q2 (Jan-Mar and Apr-Jun).

* August 2015 - I get paid, and resume working as before

* Sept 2015 - Message sent that they want everything completed by September 30th 2015 (of course, this is impossible)

* Oct 2015 - I write to ask about payment of Q3 royalties (Jul-Sep)

* Oct 2015 - I get fired from AvioDev



As of this writing, the C-101 is still on sale with my code/work contained within the product. Q3 royalties have still NOT been paid to me.



As you can see from their own FB post (link above) they state:



Quote: We keep working on next fronts, which is a lot of hard work:



- C-101CC Systems.

- AFM integration.

- Multicrew for C-101EB



which is all the things I would be working on, and told them back in September it would be impossible to complete by the end of September 2015.



At the beginning of September 2015 when the e-mail was sent, it was impossible to do the multi-crew as ED had still yet to release V1.5 and the SDK that made this possible.



Here we are, November 20th/21st, 2015, and they are posting about "a lot of hard work", whilst profiting from my work to date, and failing to pay me royalties owed.



I can think of several things to call them, but I'll refrain.



I'm writing this post so that the community is aware that if they buy the C-101 from AvioDev, that AvioDev are knowingly failing to pay royalties , and ripping off one of the developers that made them what they are today.



I also find it extremely ironic that they themselves are unable to complete everything to their own schedule! No doubt they will blame me for that.



For the record, I have given them adequate time to resolve this peacefully, but they decided to put up a wall of silence and ignore the situation.
