Hi Hanimichal, what is done? have created you this model youself? If yes where can i download it???
thanks :thumbup:
 
Have to say this thread seems confusing: there is one Bug still on the way and another freeware model available? But the link above takes you to an AI model ???
 
Heya Expat,
When I have a significant update I am going to start a new thread, if it's ok with the moderators. This one did get a bit muddled with a different project that I am not apart of but is based on a different version of the model I made for MadCatz Combat Pilot.

Hi Hanimichal, is that only a repaint??? or its a complete model? if a repaint where can i download the base pack :thumbup:
 
Beautiful looking aircraft, and the functionality, for a freebie, seems quite good.
Once problem i am having, wonder if others are as well. Once i launch (in my testing i was launching out of KNTD (Pt Mugu, CA), the aircraft "wants" to steady up on about 140 heading. Doesnt matter what i do, - tried selecting autorudder off (not working), enabling then disabling auto pilot- pull hard and yaw left over to 070 or so, and it starts a yaw rate of 10-13 per second until it gets itself over to around 140. I have never seen this behavior in any aircraft before.
Any thoughts on what i may have going on would be much appreciated.

Thanks and cheers!

Doing trap practice with v15.2 of the prototype at the moment. My approaches get better, but I never actually trap. Bug or lack of skill, don't know.

Last release of the fleet variants (that I could find):
http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,6944.msg87630.html#msg87630

There's been a few mods in between, so it might be worthwile to dig through the thread if you need the fleet models.

Beware of bugs though.


Cockpit hints:
- If you don't get a HUD despite trying the panel switches: Avionics master switch.
- The switches for the exterior lights are behind the throttles.




- Edit:

Whoopeee! Did it!

Also: "Auto Flaps" only covers a narrow range of flaps. And flaps are useful for landings. Especially on carriers.

Sorry in advance for proliferating the hijacking of this thread -

I had no idea this high quality freeware existed! I just download and installed v15.2 and am very impressed with what I see for free. However, I get error messages when I select either variant that references the "Clean" model (prototype and VFC-12). Also, I see no afterburner effects. Do you have these issues as well, or is it just me? I'm in P3D v2.5, if that matters.
 
Fleet package? I don't use that (filesize too large).

Check that the [Fltsim] entries (awkwardly located somewhere near the bottom of the aircraft.cfg) point to the correct model folders and .air file.
 
Just installed this beauty. Can't figure out how to get the ILS needles on the HUD, though. KIAS vs. AOA on approach seems to be spot on, which is nice. Haven't tried landing on a carrier yet. That's next. I don't have after burner effects in FSX either. Not too worried about it - if I can't see that from the cockpit, I don't worry about it...

I had the same issue with the afterburner: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,6944.msg92430.html#msg92430 (response is on next page)

You need to install the effects from the "effects" folder in the F-18 folder into your main effects folder.
