    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Blackbird D30 Alpha release coming May 1st

V0.8 is a big improvment. Very nice. Pitch is much better on my rig. Very nice to fly manually. Some minor modelling approvements like front door frame or wrong formation lights on forward fuselage left.

My repaints should work with V0.8.0

Pleased the pitch is better. Having errors trying to install mine. All will sort eventually. The real C-130 was a nice flying aircraft, sort of a 150,000 lob Supercub.
 
Beautiful model and great feedback with pictures from all.

Question though, those with dual throttles, how do you set up for more than 2 engines, such as this? Curious.
 
I map Throttle 1 and 2 to the left throttle, 3 and 4 to the right. Just have to use the mouse if you need to pull back power on just one engine.

Yeah, makes sense. Was a noob question but wanted to make sure there wasn't some other way better way, short of buying a quad throttle, which my wife would kill me if I bought..lol. I usually then just take her by her favorite golf pro shop.
