AERONCA 7 Champ Beta release for tests

Hello guys,

This new add-on that I have in preparation illustrates the famous AERONCA 7 Champion of the years 1944/45 equipped with three different CONTINENTAL engines: 65, 85 and 90 HP in two versions wheels and floats.

I took the opportunity to switch to a newer working environment, leaving my Blender 2.83, I switched to Blender 3.6.18 and the latest Asobo export plugin in v1.3.3. PBR textures are created with Gimp 2.10 and PBR Painter/Blender 4.2 :jump:

This allowed me to try other functions that were not accessible on my old environment including dirt and fingerprints on the windows ;)
I hope to be able to add the icing function on the wings and fuselage, even if I wonder about the reality of this with this plane that must not fly at too high altitudes. This will be an opportunity to open the debate :ernaehrung004:

The official BETA version for the first tests has just been sent to the TEAM. You can publish: images or videos on SOH, no problems

Good flights to the testers :cool:

Afer the first e-mails and remarks, I am :
- improving the take-off: "engine increasing the RPMs to quickly", "take-off between 32 and 35 knts" the right speed is 38 knts
- aircraft that has "a rate of roll a little too important", it would have to be heavier

Today I tried to make a change that I had wanted to do for a long time: the icing of the plane.
This is what it gives: the icing of the windscreen works in real time, that of the wings and fuselage must be reviewed because it appears all the time!
