Nemeth MD500 Defender

SWEET George, that looks awesome, will there be a civil version as well? Now we just need some Somalia scenery!
 
That looks yummy. Thats going on my list right after the cat pby. Does Somalia show up decently on google earth or is data on airfields like cuba far and few with bit and pieces?
 
One thing you have to say is how good the humans look (in proportion, detail and texture) - many producers still cannot get them to look as real as the aircraft.

Cant wait to see if you can wobble the guys of the skids!!

Talking of which - one day I was doing air to air photography no door in a B206 with feet on skids to later find after shutdown that the standard seatbelt I had been using must have unbuckled. Glad my pilot had taken it steady that day.

I just wish the crew will not be modelled in the VC on the final version...

GOD NO!!!:173go1::argue:

Your crowd always gets what they want. I want more pilots in VCs, and I never get it. That's the only reason I'm going to buy this aircraft. I'm a pilot, and my body is part of the cockpit, PERIOD. If I can't see myself, the realism is gone.

I was just about to praise the presence of figures in the VC when I saw your post. PLEASE DON"T CONVINCE THEM OUT OF IT!!:faint:

I totally agree. the pilot figures look well done and realistic looking, so it should really add to the immersion. The biggest immersion killer for me is flying a multicrew ship and having no visible pilots.

Hopefully for all they can toggle them on or off and make everyone happy.
 
The ones in these pics do look quite convincing. I also like to see the pilot in the vc. It looks weird for the yoke or pedals to move by themselves. However, I do agree that most of the pilots seen so far in VCs do not look very realistic.
 
who would want to fly in a hot zone with no copilot hehe, my latest B&N purchase was The Night Stalkers, about the 160th, id have to say id need to see said copilot in action to be fully convinced...(shameless plug for a vc vid):173go1:

If the pilots looks good to you... well OK, for me they don't, i wouldn't want their shoes anyway. :jump:
Pilots in VC are a repulsive to me, i've never seen any well modelled.
Let's just hope for a toggle off/on to please everyone. :ernae:
 
Why not ask for better VC pilots with cooler features instead of damning them forever?:gossip:
 
I was reading about the new heli that the Army is testing and want to put in the ranks. It;s called Lacota and it looks cool! Hopefully someone will model it.
