Basler BT-67 FSX (freeware 5th July)

[PZL Belfegor]

We had one day access to C-GAWI, and came back with 500+ pictures. CGAWI's panel is plastered over with gauges, ours is a rough approximation, as are other parts, too (overhead). We'll be happy to consider update options, have a sizeable list already, this'll be one of them...

Thank you, update would be welcome, bot don't forget to take a well deserved break after the initial release

repaints

Just Pickup My copy This Morning Enjoying it alot Great Job

The second is included, the first is a simple colour swap and rereg with some badge/logo removal on the latter... (Doing the same myself atm for want of blank textures)

Let me congratulate the developers for a fine job for this freeware aircraft. Thank you very much.

I am having one discrepancy, though. I have installed both the BT-67 Base pack and the gauge/texture update files.

When flying in the VC view with the autopilot engaged, the Heading Select button on the right of the HSI only turns counterclockwise. Thus I can only turn the aircraft to the left when changing the heading. A right turn is a 180 degree PLUS turn -- a long way around. It did this with only the Base Pack installed so the update was not involved.

Is this situation occurring with anyone else ??

Using left clicks only? Try right clicks or the mouse wheel. (Goes for other switches and knobs as well.)

Thanks for posting that web site, kilo delta, it's great

I'll have this baby installed on my new PC build soon.

Just to say that I am watching this thread with interest. This is just a draft of a quick panel fix, using the resources at hand. Any comments welcome. I suppose we'll also re-do the ASI.

That panel layout looks good. Maybe the only change I'd suggest would be to swap the turn coordinator with the RMI to set up a better scan for instrument flying.

Having said that, I don't have any problem with the panel as it is now. I can't begin to count the number of planes I've flown over the years with non standard layouts. Makes it a little harder to hand fly on instruments, but it's just the way it is sometimes with airplanes that work for a living.

I am so impressed with this plane and the quality of the work.

Cheers,
steve

I already had Bill Shultz's CV-580 soundset installed, so that's what I'm using. Tweaking the volume(s) in Options/Settings/Sounds gives me what I want.
They aren't correct for the PT6 engines, but, I really like their lower "note" a lot better than the available defaults.

"FS2002/FS2004 Allison T-56 Engine Sounds", 580sound.zip @flightsim,
and the update; "T-56 Allison Turboprop Sound Update for L-188 Electra, CV-580 and P-3 Aircraft", t56_sound_update_cielo.zip @ Avsim.

There are other soundsets proffered in the BT-67 thread at Avsim: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/378810-basler-bt-67-turbo-conversion-dc-3-released/page__st__25 ...Don

I also use the CV-580 soundset. look for cv-580-sound.zip @ flightsim.com.
This particular soundset works convincing for me.

Any one else getting an FSX crash when ending the flight?

Update:

Must have been some strange anomaly in my system, it worked just fine last night so kindly disregard at this time.

It looks good, the turn indicator is in a different spot than in usual basic six, but it's how it is in real plane (example of such configuration here). I saw you post in Avsim thread, so I won't repeat the suggestion about fuel flow meters May I add "flat" GPS stack option to the "would be nice" list? It doesn't require separate models (animation hiding knobs and buttons should suffice) and it would allow to place custom avionics like different GPS or weather radar by users. That's merely a suggestion, by no way request - you have already done enough for simulation enthusiasts

this is a great aircraft , something I've been waiting for. thanks to the developers for this gift to the community, and as previous posters have said ...it is payware quality. though i do have one problem with it , when i go to full power ..say on takeoff ..the throttle sticks at full power even if i reduce the power after takeoff .it takes maybe a minute for the throttle to respond and the power to come off ....sometimes it doesn't happen at full power but at medium power settings. this can for me make take offs and landings difficult. anyone else having this problem ?

I've also saw many pictures on the previous pages of this forum off repaints for the aircraft ...do you get em with the pack ?? are they coming soon ??? ..one i saw was the US forestry service ....is this available ???

thanks again

I don't mind the non standard panel, I think it gives it character and a nod to it's vintage DC-3 lineage. Like Steve says, a lot of planes flying today still have a non standard arrangment. I don't think it was really until the mid-late 60s that instrument panels...at least in GA birds, really started having the standardized '6 pack'

This Basler panel reminds me of the MAAM DDA DC-3 project they did long long ago for FS2000. It was modern looking in color but the instruments were in a non standard arrangment.

A good alternative sound is from the old Iris PC-9/AT-6 package which is now freeware. The blade config between the two engine sounds may be different in real life but these sounds are very close as the PT6 and blade config on the BT-67 are quite high pitched. Having seen a few BT-67's in flight yes it does sound very close to a Shorts 360 and also not unlike a Starship or Avanti. If you decide to use these sounds, you'll probably want to edit out the O2 mask sound or you can use this Silent Wave sound(posted below) in place of the original Mask.wav to kill that breathing sound.

Almost forgot to say, thanks Manfred & team for this wonderful work of art!
