Alabeo C188B AGTRUCK FSX Released.

is it possible that Alabeo will do the rev.1 including all the small issues coming out in the forums and a complete instruction manual ?
 
I'm really enjoying flying this airplane. My problem has nothing to do with the airplane. I have trouble staying over the "right" field.

I have a friend who flies one in real life. He told me that he puts in just a small bit of down trim while working. He said it is easier to pull up a little as needed rather than pushing the stick forward to keep the airplane at the right height over the field. He also said that he puts in one notch of flaps as he approaches the field and leaves it there while working the field.

The little bit of down trim sure worked great when flying my RC Piper Pawnee before I swapped it for a Piper Super Cub.

Slightly off topic...

...but it has to do with ag flying. The member of my RC Club who also flies real world ag planes told us yesterday that he will not be going up to Indianna this year as the drought, hot weather, etc., has resulted in not much work.

I hate to be really stupid but where is the starter switch located?

VCN-1

Edit: I found it.
 
Hi,Im thinking about the new repaint of C188 but in camuflage.
One, very interesting is in USA like RAF camuflage scheme. Registration of this AG Wagon/ AG Husky is N585IG (DFS) but I have problem to find more pictures of this bird with interesting repaint (Google dosent help).
Maybe someone noticed more photos or is a owner of this C188 / or have more photos ?

Speaking of knobs and switches, I hope Alabeo would up the ante a bit. I don't want to get greedy now that we have beautiful and nice flying crop duster in FSX, but maybe a working boom pressure switch/gauge etc for realistic operations. Probably too much to ask for AgNav :mixedsmi:

@BAT21, yes, yes!
Thank You, better view. :wavey:

I think pilot has a great fun in this paint. Like close air support aircraft :D and enemy are pests.
 
Ok, started. Give me 1-2-3 days for finish this (can do it only evenings after work, but this repaint isnt easy)

Looking good YoYo:salute: I was gonna do paints for c188, but decided not to. The non-layered paintkit I can manage (with layer blending modes), but the real problem would be the huge amounts of rigorous aligning the painting would require.
