Since I have been away has there been any news on that great looking defiant that was being put together?

John,

If you want, I can take a look see at the fm. Had an idea about the xdp and controlling the guns too. If you want send some stuff to me.

You'd be more thaqn welcome to send one to me for trialling, but I don't have a clue about FMs... :mixedsmi:
 
I would like to see it released at Reg's. Is there any other thoughts on this?

Is anyone looking at a mission set? It would be great to release this plane with a good mission set to go with it. I expect ETO would be the environment choice for the set. I would love to see it on Pats' airfields.

Pat,
I noticed that the moving fuselage parts where still up when the turrent was turned. These should be down I think. I had them animated before. Has this been changed? It is an important part of this plane.
 
It's been planned from the start that Reg's Hangar (or SoH in it's absence) would host it first Greg :) It won't go anywhere without your approval.

The animation has been changed slightly so that the rear deck can be lowered independantly of the undercart. It's now mapped to the bomb-bay door key (It was usually only lowered for combat).

Those pics aren't up to date. John has done more work on the skins since then plus the radiator has been re-mapped and the turret detailed further.

As for airfields, I built Kirton-in Lindsay, 264 sqdn's home base especially for this one. :)
 
That sounds Great Pat. This is what I was hoping. Is there any chance to a mission set? I'm hopeless at making them.
