Cera AS-365/HH-65 VC Texture Mod & USCG Repaint Adjustment (V1.3)
This is for the payware Dolphin from Cera simcraft. DO NOT use this texture set if you do not have a legal copy of the software.
VC Texture Mod
1) Panel color adjusted darker, placards added to panel (updated v1.2)
2) gauge color saturation adjusted
3) gauge glass reflection adjusted to best match anti-reflective coating (updated v1.3)
4) panel night light color adjusted for incandescent lighting (softer white)
5) fix excessive radio/NAV/DME display background illumination
6) overhead glass tinted dark green with internal reflection (updated v1.3)
7) external glass texture more white to better match plexiglass reflection, original version in folder "ext_window_option_darker" (new v1.3)
USCG HH-65C VC/Repaint Adjustment
1) CG orange color adjusted
2) panel night light is NVG compatible green (for USCG HH-65C)
3) ADI for HH-65C uses blue=sky/brown=ground scheme (for USCG HH-65C)
4) Pilot texture with proper HGU helmet
5) tires blackened
6) external glass texture more white to better match plexiglass reflections (new v1.3)
7) wiper blades darker shade of black (updated v1.2)
8) VC internal window reflection for aft windows added (new v1.3)
HTR Profile
1) profile v1.4 included, mainly tested with HTR v1.5, v1.6x version also supplied
a) aircraft gauge file forces autorudder off < 40kt and on >40kt so control response is unfortunately somewhat speed dependent
b) Euro rotor spin; apply right pedal as torque is increased, mostly neutral pedal at hover to maintain heading (updated v1.4)
c) VNE is about 150kts MSL, did not focus on performance envelope
d) Dolphin is equipped with AFCS so it will not be twitchy like a light helicopter, it should not behave like the Dodo 206
e) expect updates to the profile in the future
f) See HTR applet window image for recommended settings
WX radar gauge
1) adding ASN/AS16 WX radar gauge to the VC panel (Dolphin is equipped with a radar)
