Havoc Turbinlite testing

SOH-CM-2025
Meanwhile I'm still testing the Havoc Turbinlite and just some views which are in fact a compilations since, as mentioned in my other thread, I can't get a mixed flight to engage!:redfire:

My 3 wing men which are Hurricane Mk II Night Fighters are just taking off in front of my Havoc Turbinlite. We are part of 534 Squadron RAF at Tangmere. Taking off to the right of the lit runway which is expecting incoming aircraft. (Well that's my story for now!:jump:)

Just checking the Havoc's instruments; it's a dark night and bad weather near base.

Now my Hurricane Mk II NF wing men are off to my port in line abreast. I can just make them out in the dark. They may be able to see me better with my white trailing edges. You may have to enlarge the screenshot!

This is where I switch to an earlier QC test.

It seems there are 3 bombers in the area. I have lit up one but it's neighbour is also partly illuminated. Now where are my wing men when I need them? ( CCFS3?:biggrin-new:)

Hi M,
Thanks for the pics and info.

Would there be a possibility for Ted to model in a semi transparent cone simulating the Turbinlite searchlight cone, animated to the same command as the light on off?

You would then have the actual illumination as now ,and a good simulated light cone as well.

Cheers
