Folks, be advised that we have released the 2nd volume in the Harrier saga: The Harrier GR.7/GR.9

The aircraft is a totally different model than the AV8B Harrier II Plus.

The package includes a VC-10 K3 tanker AI aircraft so you can practice air to air refueling.

Hi,
before I buy the new Harrier, can you tell me if its the same installer for Prepar3D or is that one a separate purchase? The product page mentions P3D, but doesn’t give you the option to buy it. I've already posted this on Razbam's forum, but I can't wait for their reply. I have never got the AV8B to work in Prepar3D, I have problems with the loadout screen, despite copying the relevent lines in the DLL file from FSX to Prepar3D.

Regards,
Ian.
 
Almost afraid to ask this, but how is the flight model, and in paticular the VTOL solution?
 
I didn't get the AV-8B, but will probably get this one. I don't mind it being tricky, as long as it is capable and realistic.
 
are there any videos of vertical takeoff and/or landing? i've read some are having problems with this aspect of flight, if proficient, how does it look? like to get the usmc version but still on the fence...
 
Started on a repaint...

Overall, nice model :salute:

I spend a lot of yesterday flying the Harrier. The VTOL isn't bad, takeoff & transition to forward flight is OK, but occasionally the aircraft pitches up a bit around 90 to 100kts. Disabling Accu-feel seemed to help a bit here. Slowing down to the hover is a bit fiddly and it does tend to drop like a stone if you're not careful, but that's not intended as a criticism of the flight model, just needs practice is all.
 
The paint looks nice Dave ! :salute:

About the pitching up issue, I use less than 60 degrees nozzles untill I get below 80 KIAS (starting gently from 0 degrees and gradually move to about 50, but around 60 when speed is BELOW 80 kts), only then the pitching up is neglectable.
With this procedure it is also be possible to finally end up in a hover with no forward speed, I do it constantly, though I'd flown a lot with both Harriers when working the textures, but it sure gives the user a complety new learning curve experience to FSX. My advice..." practice makes perfect." :applause:

Cheers,
Hank
