Aeroplane Heaven C-47/DC-3 is out!

I have version 1.3. But then I purchased direct from Aeroplane Heaven and got my update last week hen the mention of the Viewmaster model.

Really? Hmmm, I didnt see info about that this patch was out or changelog. Thanks your info I checked my store where I bought it, I see that in PCAviator is CURRENT VERSION 1.3 also now!
So all fixes are here? Thx, I'll download it soon.
 
Short review.

Ok, I downloaded 1.3v and checked. Many small things was improved what is good

+ new repaints and new model. Nice.

For me still two things wasn’t solved, still the geometry of the wheel supports is bad, the connections are good now (thx, I can see that it was being worked on), but the plane on the ground went down again unnaturally like it was at the beginning. I think it's better to do it once and for all. Screenshot was taken with an empty plane (so it's not the weight).

The second thing is the unfortunate right engine cover which sees the left texture for the engine and not the right one which one is present in the set (so my DELTA textures has a problem on this engine, text is reversed). If these two things were resolved it would be great. I always offer my help in beta testing of this.

New features (but its strange or I miss something)?

- Panel lighting (from pedestal) always is ON from the beginning and I can’t turn it OFF. Which is not good for night flights or also during the day the whole cockpit is too bright now, earlier it could be turned ON and OFF on the lamp on the pedestal with all levers. Is it possible to turn off this lighting somewhere, maybe I miss something like new "click spot: for turning it off?

- No this fine animations on levers of prop, throttles and mixture (shaking) as it was before? I liked it a lot.

I was an FSX user for years and had so much invested in it but I finally had it with the OOM problems and took the plunge into P3D this year. No looking back now!
Hi,
I already switched to Prepar3d soon after availability, now on Version 5.2, very, very satisfied. However, because of the unsurpassed scenery-quality I also installed the new MSFS. Now, depending on the type of flying and aircraft to use I switch between P3D and MSFS. enyoing the goodies of both worlds. So, also looking forward to AH's MSFS version of C-47.
 
Hi, I have a question for DC specialists :very_drunk:.

When I use
superchargers and 2-stage blower controls (on Hi position during cruise fligh) after about 20-25 minutes in flight the engine's power drops sharply.
I was using settings about 30 MP and 23 RPM and Hi Blow at 14.000 ft, cruise flight. After 20 Minutes it stopped to work.
I've noticed this a couple of times already, regardless of the settings. PSI is ok, all the rest of the indicators are in the green position, mixture controls on Auto Lean position (cruise flight). So there should hardly be a reason for this power drop and inaction of superchargers but maybe I don't know something, I missed something.

Any idea
why is this happening, did you find solution or its a kind of issue?
 
I am doing a modern very, very worn Bush Air Cargo that flies up north and it uses GTN..

Thx for this skin, installed it but it crashed my P3Dv5 (each time). Maybe wrong entry in aircraft cfg?

Edit.
Ok I found a reason of CTD in P3Dv5, you used SPACE in the entry atc_id.



The best way is to use reg. number, not the name with space :). So this works for me in v5:
atc_id=N777YA

Unfortunately, there is a problem with the textures on the engines covers (maybe during version 1.0 to 1.1 AH changed here something, from 1.2 to 1.3 is the same):



can You do update textures for v5? This skin is really nice with his weathered cockpit! :applause:

I am loving the DC-3 and C-47.

Can't seem to pull myself away from them.

But that is not a surprise, knowing that the DC-3 is my all-time favorite airplane, and AH did an amazing job with their rendition.
 
AH DC-3 Delta Livery

The Delta Livery in P3D V5.3 is mostly dark with red lettering on the wings that are not DELTA, Anyone else experience that? (P3D V5.3

I checked it for you, I have "payware" the last version, yes the same. Black fuselage on DELTA skin BUT as you can see - wings have BEA name, so looks like its a wrong aircraft.cfg entry for this texture.

That's what I thought, Thanks for checking. :engel016:
 
Gray, you asked me on PM but I reply it here because I had some questions about this my skin also on PM too from the others.
Ok, Today I checked and I did small fixes and my textures work again ok with the last version of AH DC-3 (yep I can confirm, AH did fix for wrong read by model of cowling textures, now its ok like on the screenshot), I'll upload it soon :wavey::

Maybe someone can check this sinking of the model into the ground, 1/5 of the tire is underground. It wasn't like that before, unfortunately the last patch broke something here.

Yes, I'm seeing the same thing. Looks like it is missing a bunch of textures and the ones that are there are actually from the BEA livery.

Fortunately there are lots of other schemes to choose from.

Thanks YoYo - :encouragement:
