DH89a Dragon Rapide uploaded

[Pat Pattle]

Hi folks,

Have just uploaded the DH89a, should be ready when ok'd by our very nice admin chaps.

Apologies but its just a Beta model for now, I wanted to get it off my HD so I can concentrate on other things for the trime being.
There's plenty of work left to do on it , some stuff I know about such as the dodgy engine mapping and other's I will have misssed so all feedback welcome!

Happy new year all, hope you like it.

Thanks for the New Year present!

Tried downloding in ETO, getting two problems:

-black props
-blue flame in the cockpit

Otherwise great job

Looking for: acc_propblur.dds.
I think that might resolve the black prop problem.

I dont mean to criticize but the wrigt hand motor has two exhaust pipes.
I really want this a/c to be perfect, since I like it very much.

No worries! criticise away The texture sheet was made for a different model and it has the exhausts drawn in. If you can edit the texture and paint them out it will look ok.

Propblur - bu**er, knew I'd forget something. Attached.
Blue flame - not seen this issue, will have a look.

HH do you see a mission for this plane?

Actually, what got me started on this was reading Roald dahls 'Going Solo'. It was a Dominie that got the last handful of RAF pilots out of Greece, and by the skin of their teeth!

PS. Have removed the exhausts from the the main texture sheet and re-uploaded. Have also included the propblur.

Beautiful machine. Thanks very much. My dad remembered flying around in them down here as pre-war airliners; not many types here, then. Old RFDS too.

Ah hoo Clive

Here are a couple of pics of exported Dragons used by the Chinese. Perhaps someone would like to do some textures for inclusion in Rising Sun?

small question

CLIVE small question, are you going to make a military version?the color of the RAF?

petite question CLIVE, vas tu faire une version militaire? aux couleur de la RAF?: Wavey:

 

[HouseHobbit]

Have a mission for navigation built for this little beauty..
Did a quick look and they were used as training, passenger duties..
ETO Era 1
And finishing a Bf 109e mission where you get to jump a couple of the DH 89's,
But you will be required to have Very low an ammo ammo settings at 20% (approximately)
Perhaps your Bf 109's encounter some RAF fighters before hand??
Thank to ALL who had a hand in this, I do like the pretty paint..
We Hobbits are like that..
