Inibuilds Bf-108 Taifun Released 2/24

Thanks for the video link, looks fabelhaft ! :applause:

Pity about the totally irrelevant music (authentic engine sounds..huh?..), it's an aeroplane from the 1930's for Pete's sake. :disturbed:

Well, as some may guess I'm biased but here's my take:
Nicely modelled aircraft but I wouldn't expect too much historical accuracy with this release. There's quite some bits missing in the cockpit for an authentic Bf108 operation and some other, let's say, not so well researched properties inside and out.
This is IMO targeted at the consumer and I'm sure they'll have good success with it.

And exactly that is the reason we need your wonderful BF-108 and all of your Focke Wulf ported over to msfs. Otherwise I will use X-Plane and P3D furthermore. :mixed-smiley-010:(Kleiner Wink mit grossem Zaunpfahl.):a1310:
 
I think they arent mirrored, see this:


Maybe some parts looks like this, but we have text, registration and signs and on the each side looks ok. So maybe develeoper tooks a shortcut with the painting, but it seems like each part has own texture though.

if I look at 0:32, then I fear the worst: those wings look very much mirrored to me

Yes, but according me tha painter was lazy during doing of camuflage (roundel according me is wrong too, only bleu&red), but notice reg number or british sign on the tail.

 
good news, no mirrored textures on the final version!
The movie showed an early develoment version
 
wahoo! so they were mirrored.... at least the good news is; it won't be mirrored for the release! looking forwards to painting this one (if i can escape from dev work to get some time in my personal paint hangar!)

It looks like. I think they was mirorred too, it was too quiet from time of few questions from few sources ;). Good for us.
 
I still think that Matthias should bring his Taifun over! :p

But first his Focke-Wulfs of course!

Just sayin'!

My favorite part is where he one-click starts the engine...using the primer pump.:stupid:
"Electric Starter", LOL.
 
Great video Yo Yo, the explanation of how to fly the aircraft using the check list is very impressive. I also love the sound of the electric start with the v8 engine turning over. Looks like the video sold me.

I'm no expert, but that's the electric starter location from the real 108's I've seen, though it does look like the einspritz or injector pumpe handle, so I don't know what that's about... the ones I've seen, the pump is to the right where they have some smaller looking button and the starter is to the left and is just a button. I'm guessing they modeled this from a real 108, maybe they're just far more varied than I'm aware. Either way though, that's definitely a primer pump handle, you're right
 
I'm waiting for the Bf-108 there, of course it's a pity that it's not an add-on from Mathias and there is no choice. I've always liked the Bf-108 and it's one of my favorite planes. Spent a lot of time flying with the addition of Mathias. :wavey:

I hope it will be soon. They said something that it's still February, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
 
Its available on their their inimanager app, their sever must be overloaded as all I get when I check out is a spinning circle.
