If anyone's up for it, I'd love to see one like this...

 

[bushpilot]

I can do that. I don't think I ever saw that paint in Flight. Does it have any wing markings?

Had to win a few point to get that one. I can take some 3D shots if that would help...I'd be most grateful if you could reproduce that paint scheme.

Here's some 3D views...

 

[Cirrus N210MS]

looks amazing

The "Flight replica" is now uploaded. It should be pretty close to the original, except slightly lower placed nose marking so it would not get blocked by fuel cap.

Fantastic! many thanks Pekka:ernae:

Thanks for the latest repaints. Vertigo did such an awesome job on this package (IMHO ).

yes I did...but I have a couple of issues.
1) the pilots goggles are not of clear material...more like Luke's blast shield
2) much more importantly - I cannot manually start the engine without the plane blasting off at full throttle...regardless of the throttle lever being in the 'closed' position...
it works fine with 'ctrl+E' auto start...but no matter what I do..manual start is a 5 second rodeo
3) the tail wheel 'strobe' effect - dunno what else to call it - the tail wheel hub texture is very reflective and it 'wobbles' or 'strobes'...needs a fixin'

the Stearman looks and flies beautifully and I can highly recommend the VS model to anyone who loves round engines and fabric wings

edit - I am using the 2048 texture set model as my rig is not 1A and I like to fly in moderate to poor weather and my FPS are not impacted at all (ie: great performance like Carenado and Alabeo)

In response to 2)... Have you moved the mixture lever to rich? I tried a cold start and noticed that the mixture was at full lean. Having moved to rich, turned battery, fuel and mags on it started with no problems and at low rpm. The other possibility is that your default flight doesn't use a default plane?

Hope you sort it.

Hello Roger - yes mixture to full rich mags and batt on
per the manual and as soon as I hit the starter she jumps
like a spurred mule
I can use any other plane in my inventory and have no problem
but I have not tried deleting my saved flight to see if that works
-I'll have to try that this evening

On this aircraft the mags are on when the switch handle is at 'Both'. In other words, the long bit of the switch is sitting just below the 'Both' label. It caught me out to start with too until I realised that I'd been turning the mags off rather than on! Try that, if you haven't already, and see if that solves the start up issue.

Best,
Myles
