Flylogic F-5 Tiger II

While waiting for the release of other addons and packages, I decided to get the Flylogic "Fly the Tiger X". Yeah, its a older portover from FS9 (which I purchased long ago), but its not bad for FSX. However, it needs some tweaks.

For example, I found the three available service packs. SP1 takes care of the drooping sidewinder when flaps are lowered. SP2 apparently decreases the parking radius, but I already changed that before I found the SP. I don't have a clue as to what SP3 does as there was no readme file.

Navigating the Tiger is a bit of a challenge. The heading and CRS bug can only be set in one of the two 2D panels, not the VC panel. After reaching altitude and setting the autopilot, things are fine for awhile then the autopilot has a mind of its own and changes heading - likely towards Austria or someplace. I wonder if anyone has found how to disable that script, or any of the preset navigation settings for Switzerland and Austria.

Sooo...., I was just wondering if anyone has any more tweaks or perhaps knows of a support forum that might discuss some of these issue.

Thanks in advance.
 
"Modern model" of Tiger II in our time will be nice. Maybe any developer will touch it again.... ?

Asia camo :).
 
Yeah, but in the meantime...

Here's the one parked outside the Evergreen Aviation Museum in McMinnville, OR

Always been a fan of the little fighter, still fly Piglet's version and have the IRIS/DSB port-over in FSX. Thought about getting the 2 payware models if they are even still available.
 
I like animations. The more the better, from switches in the VC to all the external goodies when parked. This is why the Flylogic F-5 Tiger II appeals to me.

Unfortunately, it has some nuances that come along with its old design such as the programed destinations and frequencies for Austria and Switzerland and the reliance on the 2D panels to work certain switches.

It deserves some serious tweaking, which is the reason behind my original post. I also have the other tigers including the original DSB Tiger, and have added a lot of repaints for my FS9 Flylogic Tiger. One of these days when I get bored, I just might carry them over to FSX.
