In my hangar also :playful: ! The first contact: very well done! DM is present also.
 
Sheesh Fireball6 after absolutely castigating the thing, now seven posts later you want a longer aerial!!!!!

The mind boggles.

I am not sure what you mean with "absolutely castigating the thing" - I am one of the customers who bought the Broussard before the Requirements were changed and for me, as for others too, it was not clear that an internet-connection is needed everytime you start the plane in your simulation.

I wrote my thoughts here in this forum and more than once i wrote also that the plane is a very well crafted addon.

Andrey give us a good explanation here and i make the decision to use it as it is - and no, my mind did not boggle - but i found it better to leave the plane in my sim as delete it and ask for a refund.

So, why do you think you should charge me ?

High C.H.T and Oil temps

The way the post above re: license checks makes it sound like it was just once when you first start the aircraft, not for every time after.
I'm pretty confident in my connection, so I bought it
Been loving it so far!
Does anyone else notice the 985 is really a beast to keep cool sometimes?

I've been reading all the latest posts about internet connections etc, and so far appear to have had no problems, but I'm keeping an eye on it. I do agree that Andrey has developed a superb product and deserves support- I'm sure that most of the questions and problems will be overcome in the near future. I know little about computers, so I'd like to make some comments about something I'm a little more familiar with.

The R985 in the Broussard does seem run a little hotter than the same engine, in say the Beaver, (ref the Milviz Beaver). I find that opening the oil cooler gills, and selecting cowl flaps fully open after engine start, allows the C.H.Ts to rise gradually, and the oil temps to stay in the green while taxying. Prior to applying full power for take-off, the CHT usually is about 205C degrees, even at high ambient temps, during take off up to about 215-220 during take-off, with the oil temps going into the red, about 80C. As soon as possible after take off, reducing power to 90(Atmospheres?), seems to keep the CHT at about 220C, oil temps still slightly in the red, I.A.S 75 to 80 k, R.O.C. about 1.8 mps, (359 fpm). at say 762 metres (2500 ft) levelling out, power back to 80, 1800 rpm, brings the temp back in the green rapidly, with CHT 210-215. At moderate weights this generally gives a T.A.S 115-120 kts. I then slowly close the cowl flaps to about 30-45 percent. I have some limited experience with the R985, (the Beaver) and have not had similar requirements. Could be Cowl design. I'm sure their are others out there who can comment, but I hope this helps in the meantime.

Re my previous. Forgot to mention, on climb, power to 90,r.p.m 2000, and depending on weight, power can come back to approx.8.8, the same r.p.m. The only other problem I have had is setting the D.G. on line up. for some reason, occasionally, the D.G. will not be aligned, before engine start, and once the engine is running, with all three suction indicators within the arc, though the D.G. indication will change with aircraft direction, the knob to change to the correct heading will not pull out. Anyone have the same problem?
 
Details are fantastic (tire deflection on the ground!):



btw.
what I noticed - on the ground, when You do taxi I see strange stutter. Its only on the ground (its present when You pan aircraft or from VC view from cockpit)
You can notice it if You use Track IR and not fixed fps. Strange... in the air is ok. FPS here are ok but strongly noticeable stutter is present. Something is wrong on the ground.
Here the example and comparison (however, it does not reflect 100% of what I see on the monitor):


When the plane is parking - fps are smooth and no any stutter, when I starts to taxi - fps drops and stutter is present when I move the head:

Did You notice it also? Maybe my eyes only...

The battles between Spider-Man and his arch-rival Venom are the stuff of comic book legend. Perhaps you like the story.

Than perhaps you like this repaint I am working on. In fact, good old G-HOUR based in Duxford got a new paint. Owner is IMHO a Co-founder of Bremont watches, who himself is fan of the story.

I thought about it half the last night ;) and finally I found a reason of this stutter / fps drop on the ground with the help of ATSimulations.
It a issue in this both blue gauges (wheels, tire deflection on the ground). Its a nice eye candy but something is wrong here and it's a case of stutter when the wheel rotates (so as I noticed on taxi, take off and till the few meters over the ground).
You can turn it off by "//" but in this time no animation and half a texture. I wrote about it to Andrey, I hope he helps.

Panel.cfg:

[VCockpit01]
Background_color=0,0,0
visible=1

pixel_size=2048, 2048

Nice work Thomas!
 
Very nice repaints Jankees indeed!

Work on N309MP is going on. Its the second one in the background of Ercoupe video above. Today this Broussard is ín a very good condition, wearing the "bomb" and is still in service, too. Perhaps Andrey will a closer look on it.

Nice work!

Btw. ATSimulations is working on the small fix on the tire issue. The last what I tested wasnt good but I hope we found a reason.
