Headsup: New MV22 Osprey (still in development)

[rcbarend]

If anyone is interrested in a new MV22 Osprey for FSX/P3D ...

Read about it here:
http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/mv-22b-osprey.434517/

Or watch this video:

Still in development; most probably will be freeware ....

Cheers, Rob

[ryanbatc]

Looks great!

 

[PhantomP]

Really looking foward to this,thanks for the heads up.

 

[hae5904]

Certainly great news!!

Outstanding, the current payware version is probably maxed out, only really flyable with your inputs Rob.

 

[ChipShop]

Hmm, I like it; looks very promising indeed!
Looks like it'll stand up very nicely in comparison with the payware MV-22 from Virtavia.

Have followed this project a for while.
Good to see a freeware-project like this one the horizon these days.
Most certain it will be a favorite in my hangar!!!

Wonder if the proproters are animated correctly as they looked wrong on the Alphasim/vitavia one...

I have also been following the long development of this MV22 on the FSDeveloper website, and I have to say the designer has done an outstanding job. This model looks incredible inside and out.

Cheers,

Hi Chris,
What do you mean with "wrong" and "correct" ??
Are you referring to what the video (the first minute) shows on the movement of the proprotor discs (based on stick and rudder inputs) ??
Or something else ??

Regards, Rob

He's referring to how the Alphasim version had both the rotors the exact same rotation when stopped; e.g. they modeled one rotor and copied it to the other nacelle without mirroring it. However, once power was on they were shown to counter rotate, IIRC

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean .....
See attached picture of the Alphasim/Virtavia V22 with engines stopped.

This IS mirrored, right ?
Just trying to understand what you mean by "they modeled one rotor and copied it to the other nacelle without mirroring it"

OK, I haven't flown it in awhile. So they are opposite static and rotate the same way then when they're on. I just remember there was a miss match with rotors on it. unless they fixed it and I never got the update.

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That thing is going to be fantastic

Speaking of Ospreys, two days ago I heard an unusual sound overhead. Unlike the tubeliners and sounds of training aircraft from nearby Whiting Field, it was a different sound.

Looked up, and there was a Osprey overhead! NC

Looking forward to this one!

I'm fortunate that my drive to and from work takes me past Camp Pendelton every day. I'm almost guaranteed to see a few cobras or osprey every day.

I definitely did not take this while driving at freeway speeds...
