FSX version of Greg Pepper's S-51 now available

S51 on Plane guard duty

I think I may of got that SH51 to show up on plane guard duty. It's the one on the left.
I didn't rename the sim.cfg as you suggested that would only causethe previous sim.cfg that is already in the Ai Carrier subfolder to update
that file (I already had a sim.cfg in there and it was for something else,
so I kept the s51.cfg file and somehow made an entry in the menu folder
like what you suggested Unit.1=SH-51_guard, 90, -80 and
now as you can see there are two SH51's out there. I wish I could
made the ship wakes behave, they stream up in the air like smoke instead of on the water behind the ship(s). Like roseanne-a-danna always said..
Ya know Jane,....It's always something

I know, I know. "Don't touch the rotors!" I couldn't help it though. I'm trying to use the "way of the force" like Jedi Master Banana Bob. :icon_lol:

Just need a bit more tweaking of the textures... :kilroy:

More Improvements

Just when I think that this helo has had about all the polish it
could have, rotor textures from Bob? That would be icing on the
cake......

The panel looks great and I like how it looks like the real deal.

Well not BB, actually from me instead. Been trying to apply his techniques, but no guarantees at this point. Thanks BB, where ever you are! :wavey:
 
Since the model is basically 8 years old, I ended up having to go 'old school' on the rotor texture in the way it's displayed. Opinions?

I'm copter lover and like old and fascinating chopper :D This old and perfect Sikorski seems like a SCroge McDuck's copter :bump:
Do u plan another exciting repaint? Maybe civilian.....
 
There were a multitude of repaints done for the earlier FS9 version. These textures can easily be adapted to the FSX version.

Go to the downloads section and look for FS9 re-paints and look for files by Mick.
 
Question re Plane Guard Helo's

Have adapted some helo's to work as hoveing plane guards alongside AI carriers from FS9 but why on some the rotors are moving when hovering but others do not? Something to make then engines running? But you remove the air.cfg and airfile and just have the sim.cfg. Puzzled . .
