Ant's T-28B & C Released

Patch for T-28D version 1.0 and 1.1 to upgrade to version 2.0 is now available from my website:
.

Very kind Anthony! Thank you! Is there a change log between 1.1 and 2.0?

EDIT: Ooops I see the info in the manual, thanks!

Thank you Anthony for the kind and uncomplicated solution. She installed fine...

Still no sign of the update for existing owners over at FSS...

Add my sincere thanks, Anthony. Update works great, the D is now perfect. Love the B & C models too. Who needs FSS anyway? Seriously, won't be buying from them again.
 
No affiliation, but in defense of FSS, they are the main outlet for Orbx-products. With the sale (and subsequent support requests) and a recent spate of Orbx-releases, there's only so much one can do in a given amount of time with a limited amount of staff. Personally, I have nothing but good experiences with them. So you have to wait a bit longer for the update. Big deal:rolleyes:. It's not like v1.0 is unflyable.

I agree, I've had very good dealings with FSS except for the delay with the T28D update. I certainly would not let this one exception change my future buying habits.
 
I agree, it is a little harsh on FSS to say one is not going to purchase there any more because of this delay. Particularly in the light of Anthony providing an update package for us here.

I am sure it will sort and it is not as if we HAVE to wait, thanks to Anthony's update package...

A happy third Advent Sunday to all.

Anthony, thanks very much. It's a beautifully crafted aircraft. You're an artist sir!


BTW how do u fire the rockets. I didn't manage it, but then again I'm not very technical...:redface-new:
 
We have the updated patch from Anthony, and it did the job. Fantastic effort. Thank you very much Anthony. :ernaehrung004:

FSS still has not updated the download to my original purchase, nor have they responded to my three (3) e-mails on the issue. But, they will sell you the newer version. :culpability:

Bottom line is that it is my money, and I tend not to spend it where I have encountered a bad experience and lack of customer support. On that point I purchased the B/C version from another distributor.

Time to move on, folks.

Again, thanks to Anthony for the fine Trojans.
 
What a fine aircraft!

I tried the D model demo when it was released but found it a bit over sensitive on the controls, but this B/C model handles much better IMHO, so I had to buy it!
Never saw a real Trojan until this summer, as there are now two stationed over here. I was surprised by just how big these are, but also how fast they are.

 
When I was a wee lad long ago I read an article in one of those aviation magazines of the 1970s. In it the author told a story of a mock-dog fight he had in his T-28 with a P-40. Short version is he had the P-40 glued to his front window for the entire contest. At the time I found that very interesting, and still do, to a point. The T-28 was a much newer plane, of course, but was not designed to be a fighter. It's an anecdote that proves nothing, but fun to read about.

ARMAMENT MASTER switch ON

ARMAMENT SELECTOR to rockets.

STATION SELECTOR to the station that you have rockets installed

Hit the BRAKES to fire.

If the ARMAMENT SELECTOR and STATION SELECTOR do not match (ie you have bombs on the stations but you have selected rockets) then nothing will fire. The only exception to this are the guns which will fire regardless of the STATION SELECTOR (although you need to switch GUN FIRING switch to READY for the guns to work).
