A few questions:

1. What does the A/B look like?
2. Is there a manual to look at before-hand? I like to study before I get.
3. Are all / most of the switches functional?

I am not currently able to access my FSX computer so I can't show you a shot of it. That said, FSD are planning to release a service pack soon which will be updating the AB so even if I could show you it will not look the same.

I don't believe you can preview it the on their site. What I can tell you is it is 50 odd pages reasonably detailed.

Most of if not all the switches move, some even having multiple positions. Not all switches are functional though. Obviously all the standard FSX functions have working switches but some of the more advanced switches that would alter the flight characteristics for example don't have a function in FSX. All in all though I believe there should be enough to keep you amused.

Hope this helps.
 
It is an excellent model despite a few minor issues which have been documented by the Dev Team. Hopefully all will get sorted out in the first service pack. It is a blast to fly!
 
The update has been released along with a paint kit. All problems and or comments were dealt with. If you own it, please feel free to go and get it.

Also included is the Thunderbirds repaint by Gibbage.

thanks,

kc.
 
Thanks Colin, but like Chris I'm a bit confused as to how to get it. Do we need to re-download the package or is it a separate patch?

By the way I love the look of the afterburner in the new screenshot :applause:
 
Was kinda wondering about how to access the update myself. Tried to redownload a newer version of the file but the page went nowhere. Do we need to access the new version of the file/installer from the FSD site or can the newer version be installed from the current installer?
 
The Updated version is available HERE
Or by redownloading from the same link as was originally used and running the installer,
there are no bits and pieces to hunt down , it takes two moments and a couple of mouse clicks .<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
Happy Fourth of July ! , the Thunderbird Aerobatics Team repaint is perfect for the occasion<o:p></o:p>
 
Just to advise anyone who has the YF-23 and to anyone from FSD who might see this message on a holiday. Seems the link for updating/redownloading the YF-23 is broken. That is the message I am getting when trying to download the updated installer.


Thanks Chuck! You beat me by a minute or two in posting. Once again, thanks for helping us get the update!

Happy Fourth of July back to you!

Hi

Bought it today and it is excellent value - but I would like a fix for the probs Raptor reported as it is so zoomed out it ruins the external view.

Well done again on a superb product.

Regards

GJ
 
That is one problem with FSX that i can’t solve, its related to the Model Radius from the 0 point and in this case it’s at the wings root cord where its supposed to be , but this leaves a substantial portion of the aircraft sticking out front and that effectively increases the radius .<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
In FS9 i could set the aircraft radius but not in FSX , the scroll wheel was able to deal with zooming in or out so i had to live with an FSX foible ... its<o:p></o:p>
unfixable. <o:p></o:p>
 
Never mind and tx for the rapid reply - I notice some other paywares occasionally have the problem.

Tx again for a great product. :ernae:
 
A friend told me that to fix the zoome dout problem, you can hold ctrl and - and that will physically move the eyepoint and not just move it in. Although it is annoying to do everytime you fly it, it fixes the problem. Thanks for fixing the annoying white bar in the HUD and is that a new AB effect I see?

Hi Raptor - yes but the problem is that you make photo real scenery out of focus if you zoom in - it is not just the aircraft that you enlarge.

Never mind - its great to fly and the views from the VC are stunning up high.
