vertigostudios.co.uk
Title : Vertigo Studios PT17 Volume I
Version : 1.1
Price :
£21.99
Formats Available : Digital and Retail Box
Compatibility : FSX SP2 and Acceleration

Vertigo Studios have released there latest master piece, The PT 17 Stearman. With Unpresidented feedback and rigorous in-house testing the Stearman finally takes to the skies.

The package comes with two variants, a civilian and the military variant.

On installation, the end user can choose between the HD version or the smaller texture size of 2048 for the less powered machines. Everything has been taken into consideration.


Product Description
Ever wanted to learn to fly a tail dragger or re-create your very own private airshow? now you can. Vertigos PT17 comes in 2 flavours, a Military variant and also a Airshow variant. The airshow variant has a slightly more powerful engine with the option to jettison smoke and re-create your own air display.

The PT17 was a conventional biplane of rugged construction with large, fixed tail-wheel undercarriage, and accommodation for the student and instructor in open cockpits in tandem. The radial engine was usually un-cowled, although some PT operators choose to cowl the engine which is beautifully displayed on our airshow model.


Introduction
The PT17 Stearman is a biplane used as a military trainer aircraft, of which at least 8,584 were built in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. It served as a primary trainer for the USAAF, the USN (as the NS & N2S), and with the RCAF as the Kaydet throughout World War II.

After the conflict was over, thousands of surplus aircraft were sold on the civil market. In the immediate post-war years they became popular as crop dusters, sports planes, and for aerobatic and wing walking use in airshows.

Received my Dvd version, instal it, received the link for update v1.1 by mail.

What a wonderful aircraft ! ! !

Just love it :jump:

Thank you Daneo for this product :salute:
 
(I used the 2048 texture size Version)

In the VC is right an switch, he is not movable and the sound has an terrible loop.

But is an nice FSx Aircraft.
 
The civilian textures are very impressive. The 4096 rally pop.

BTW the package works well in P3D.

Tried out the N2S with one of Bruce's add-on paints downloadable from vstudio's website, (the ones that are "missing" from the package, but are in the cfg) and noticed that once in the air, the rudder activation becomes nearly non-existent. With the tailwheel on the ground, full movement is available. The movement dynamics in the air also reduce to near zero. Is this correct?? The rudder pedal movements are also reduced in the VC. I made sure the controls were unlocked. As soon as the tailwheel touches back down on landing, full movement is restored.:isadizzy: Using the rudder for anything in the air is useless, not even enough available for good coordinated turns. Other than this, I thought it is a very good aircraft.

Have not had a chance to fly the aerobatic model, yet, so don't know if this occurs with it.
 
Hi

Please could someone post a screenshot of the vc from the pilot's view. I just can't see one anywhere - on the product page they're very dark.

Many thanks
Dave
 
Congratulations Dean, Bruce, and everyone involved from Vertigo Studios, on the product release! It's a very sharp looking production.
