Airbus Posted September 27, 2010 Report Posted September 27, 2010 I addressed the engine performance in the update I'm working on. Did you reinstall the package after the panels went away? Quote
bazthehat Posted September 28, 2010 Report Posted September 28, 2010 No I didn't. I made sure that I saved my modified version as a new filename, and as such I found that it only loses the panels if I try to fly my version - the original works fine in X Plane (though incidentally if I try to view the 2d/3d panels in Plane Maker they are empty slots rather than complete).Should I try re-installing the package?Cool to hear you're already working on a new update that addresses the power - like most people here, can't wait to try it.

bazthehat Posted September 29, 2010 Report Posted September 29, 2010 Oh, meant to say last time. Hopefully this issue will also be fixed in the next update?I've noticed that the idle revs are way too high (should be around 500-700 rpm at idle). I've been noticing idle speeds of nearly 1000 rpm, which (a) makes the aeroplane lurch off and weathercock as soon as the brakes are off, and ( really makes the whole thing difficult to land, as you don't actually lose speed during the float.Like I said hopefully that will also be fixed, but just wanted to air it.

Airbus Posted September 29, 2010 Report Posted September 29, 2010 Hey Bazthehat,the engine speeds have also been solved. Quote
bazthehat Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 Fantastic! ;DAt the risk of sounding greedy, and idea as to roughly when we can expect the update? Quote
Airbus Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 Some time soon, I'm looking at adding some more liveries and features to the plane during this up date. Quote

MaidenFan Posted October 6, 2010 Report Posted October 6, 2010 Wow, I might have to end up purchasing it again!! Quote
Airbus Posted October 7, 2010 Report Posted October 7, 2010 Quote Wow, I might have to end up purchasing it again!!No need to its part of the update. Quote
MaidenFan Posted October 7, 2010 Report Posted October 7, 2010 I didn't pay attention to directions in the first one. I dropped folders in instead of using the installer. I don't know why I did that. Just one of those moments where you do something stupid for no reason. Now, I back up my files. Quote

toto4242 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 First of all, i must to say, i'm really happy to have this plane! I'm flying it for a couple of days now, and it's a real pleasure.Since I'm not a real pilot, it is possible that i'm on a completely wrong track here, but i think there is one (well, actually two) too many mark on the DG, 3 big instead of 2, and 4 small instead of 3 between each numbered marks. Not that big of a problem, though, I just thought to let you know Quote
Airbus Posted October 19, 2010 Report Posted October 19, 2010 Toto thanks for noting that. Ill make sure to correct it. Quote
toto4242 Posted October 20, 2010 Report Posted October 20, 2010 Quote Toto thanks for noting that. Ill make sure to correct it. Thanks, really appreciate it, i can't wait to see the new version Quote
Airbus Posted November 9, 2010 Report Posted November 9, 2010 Just a little something. I'm working on all of the radios improving the number textures starting with the ADF. Quote
bazthehat Posted November 12, 2010 Report Posted November 12, 2010 It's looking good, really can't wait to have a go. ;D Quote
bazthehat Posted November 14, 2010 Report Posted November 14, 2010 OK, here's another question or two about the update....I've been having a play with the 1.1 version, and I'm very surprised by the speed needed for rotation. Considering rotation is generally at around 55 KIAS, I've been able to get the nose well clear off of the ground at around 15 KIAS. I've also found that ground roll on landing is very, very long, with the nose staying off the ground and the aircraft not really slowing down unless you apply brakes (though this may well be the high idling speed of the engine?).Lastly, and yes I know this is a very minor point, but the nose wheel steering should only deflect the nose wheel by 10 degrees, and differential brakes should be the only means of being able to turn the nose wheel up to 30 degrees either side of centre.I'm mentioning these as they are not-quite-so obvious issues in an otherwise lovely aircraft, and I'm hoping it will help with your next release. Quote
Airbus Posted November 15, 2010 Report Posted November 15, 2010 One of the first things i worked on was the flight characteristics. The stall speeds have rotation speeds have improved. Ill make sure to work on the landing gear steering, and nose gear rotations. It seems to have alot of prop wash that causes that effect. Thanks Baz for pointing it those out. Quote
bazthehat Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 Thanks matey, and my pleasure. Really looking forward to seeing the new and improved version. ;D Quote
MaidenFan Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 Quote Will there be liveries in this upcoming update? Any shot's of them? Quote
whiskeyportal Posted November 16, 2010 Report Posted November 16, 2010 This is one of my favorite a/c to fly in sim, the updates are looking great! Quote
Airbus Posted November 22, 2010 Report Posted November 22, 2010 I posted in the wrong thread.Hey Rush.Yes, and yes.I decided to re unwrap the whole fuselage again. It will be over one file now. I did this to make the pantkit easier to work with.Most of my time has been used on the flight model and panel. After those things are polished off I ll move back outside. Here is a screenshot of the current WIP exterior, i'ts very rough right now. Thanks guys for keeping up with the progress! Quote
